Following my personal and professional life as a twenty-something muddling her way through life post-university.
Well it has been a little while eh? I almost panicked that I wouldn’t remember how to write a blog today, but it turns out spilling my thoughts onto paper is something that comes quite easily for me (perhaps too easily, I should really try and hold some thoughts back). In short, the past few […]

We all know that good things take time, but do we have the patience to wait for them? I often feel like I don’t have the time to wait for things to pay off long-term. I’m 24, which I’m aware is still very young, but I still feel as though I’m too late (and old) […]

I wasn’t sure if I needed to write about what I learnt at 23 after I read my post from last year about what I’d learnt at 22 which is full of slightly profound and pessimistic truths. I wrote that post after my break up (which I’ve written a bit about here) when I was […]
