About me

As this is my first post i thought it would be good to talk about me! me. me.me.

I'm a 21 year graduate from Kidderminster, who is now in Brighton. Escaping to the seaside was the best mood for me, it clears your head, calms you down and THE best place to be at sunset/a clear night or even just with friends. I studied media and communication and I am currently trying to enter into the big wide world of journalism, which is harder than anyone could have warned me about.
I am a positive person who is opinionated and down to earth. I will not always speak what you want to hear but I will always talk the truth about anything you ask. University taught me about being me, how I never need to be scared to be who I am and to express myself however I like. I made some friends that I will never forget, ran into the sea in the middle of October in the early hours, and have certainly discovered that the world is a hard place and that the right people can help you get through it.
When it comes to family, there is no other people in this world that I could love more. I have a close knit family that are behind me on everything I do and want to be, for this I will always be grateful.They have given a lot for me to do what I want, and one day I hope to be able to pay them back for everything. A lot of people would call me a 'Daddy's girl'. I guess I am, not in a spoilt way, I have never been able to get everything I want just by clicking my fingers or flashing my eyelashes, but in the way that there is no one like my Dad. I love my mom, sister and paul.
Two people that I would do anything for are my nephews:
They just turned 3, and whenever i am around them I dont want to leave and I think they are the most gorgeous things in the world!
Except, Dan. Our relationship is special to say the least.In a nutshell: we met when we were 11, to this day we joke that is Mr Goldsworthy's fault (our year 6 tutor), he sat the whole class boy girl- boy girl, which meant that me and dan sat next to each other for the whole year. I developed a typical teen crush on him, but we became friends. We moved on to different high schools and that was it. I dont htink either of us thought we would ever be as close again, we had different friends and had grown up away from each other. It was not until we went for the same job that we became close again, it took a year of arguements for me to realise that I loved him and we have never looked back. So that does sound corny, but I dont care, I can not imagine living without him. Three years into the relationship and i dont think anyone can say we have changed, we now live together and I can not believe how quick time flys when you are with someone you truly care about.
So thats Dan, now onto my friends. I have a lot. Some I have known since I was in nappies, some are purly 'pixels' and others I have simply met along the way, but everyone of them means something in a different way to me. My school friends obviously know the most about me, we have the best memories, they were there when I was first drunk, when I first fell over and when I passed my exams. A handful of them I consider to be my closest friends. We have had our ups and downs but it has made us closer than ever, so much so that we can now openly laugh about the huge incident that broke us apart. My university friends also play a big part, they were the first people to look after me when I moved away from home, with no one I knew. I met my 'twin' at university too, we look alike, think alike and you would actually think we were sisters unless you knew. I love her to bits, for someone I dont see as much as I would like, she is someone I cant imagine not having around anymore.
I love the colour orange, fireworks and biscuits. The smell of winter and the autumn sun. I do not like liars and prejudice. And the smell of petrol makes me feel ill. Nuts, suede and grass also do not go very well with me.
There is not much I wont talk about, not much that I dont have an opinion on and these are things that I plan on writing about.
