Just a woman in her mid 20's navigating life
Am I the only one that feels like 2018 is just running away from me? I always seem to have so much to do but absolutely no time to get everything done. Despite the fact we are only in July I already feel like so much has changed in the past 6 and a half months
These past 3 years have been a roller coaster ride, I spent first years partying and in denial of struggling with depression until I finally went on medication before starting my blog that summer. Fast forward two years later I'm off my medication and have been for the whole the third year, I've gotten grades to be proud of and I'm walking out of uni with my dream job...although it's not related to my degree in the slightest!
It's been two years since I first hit publish on my What's In My Makeup Bag post and what a rollercoaster it's been since. I've come on in leaps and bounds. Although I'm still nowhere near where I want to be with my blog, there's still a lot of room to grow and develop.
April has arrived and hopefully is going to bring some warmer weather with its arrival. I can't be the only one that's bored and fed up with the cold. Wearing cosy clothes and chunky knits just doesn't seem right now we're in April...especially since Easter has passed.
Dissertation. Exams. Social events. Presentations. Nobody warns you how busy you're going to be in third year...specifically in your last couple of terms of your entire university career. Honestly, I wasn't prepared at all and while I only have 3 classes a week I still find myself struggling to do everything I want.
May 2018 will mark 2 years since the creation of Aesthetic Obsessed and while it began as a hobby over the past couple of years I've fallen in love with everything to do with blogging well other than scheduling tweets and now I'm going to the end of my degree in dance...I have 2 weeks before my dissertation deadline, I'm questioning as to what to do after university.
Located on Brompton Road in Knightsbridge, Elan Cafe has become quite a popular spot for bloggers and influencers alike...as well as those just trying to get the perfect shot for the 'gram. What better location to have lunch with someone I'd never previously met?
If you ever meet me at an event you'll probably be thinking I'm extremely confident and outgoing, when in reality I'm quite a shy person and I keep to myself more often than not. While I have come out of my shell a lot more in the nearly 2 years that I have been blogging, I'm still very much an introvert.
When an invitation for a spa day with yoga and afternoon tea popped into my inbox from Spa Seekers, I obviously couldn't resist. I'd never been to an actual spa before, unless you count turning my bedroom or bathroom into my own personal spa (like in my The Perfect Valentines Pamper Evening post).
