A little personal update. This past month I officially became a graduate, earning my BA Hons Degree in journalism. It’s been a strange route to this juncture, and I’ve certainly been made to work for it (both academically and manually!). It’s been one of the proudest moments of my life and I now look towards what the next chapter holds. Applications have been sent out, my CV is (hopefully) sparkling, and it’s time to take the opportunities that present themselves. Thanks to all of you who have given words of encouragement through tweets, comments or Skype, your positivity has kept me working towards my goals.
