Who knew it would be so difficult to photograph a Who knew it would be so difficult to photograph a down stairs loo 🤦🏼‍♀️ so here’s the deal, it’s not completely finished just yet, as we still have a blind to grab, and it’s since become the store place for all painting supplies, but I just had to share the colour. It would appear by my insta grid I don’t like much colour, but I do and this is the first real ‘splash’ of brightness. 
Downstairs loo can be boring, soulless places, and well we didn’t want that!

Can’t wait to share all the details, but for now here’s a snippet!

The same but different 🏡 Yesterday was a day of The same but different 🏡 Yesterday was a day off for me, thanks to my company offering everyone a day off to celebrate a new financial year 🙌🏻 So I spent it tryinggggg to declutter and get those rooms sorted - will it be done before the next #transformationtuesday 🤔
Naturally I’m knackered today so it was a nice change to be bound to a laptop. Kick started the day with some classic High School Musical 😂 How’s your Tuesday been?

A little man and his love for his garden 🌿 Wasn A little man and his love for his garden 🌿 Wasn’t this weekend just lush? The sunshine, the blue skies, things finally look bright! 
We had a busy one, sorting through some of the junk we carried through the move, and finally get those must keep items stored in our loft space! I am a little gutted I’m not showing you a transformation of the two spare rooms, but it’s not long now, just a couple more boxes to sort and some things to sell and we will finally have a 3 bedroom house!

Rhodie thoroughly enjoyed his zoomies  round the garden, especially once we took the fence back so he had more room to run! Doesn’t he just look so happy. All he wanted was us all to be in the garden all day!

The grass is certainly longer and more established The grass is certainly longer and more established since this snap from early January. 🌿 Despite Rhodie being a little naughty and pulling a few chunks of lawn up in first few weeks, the lawn is going well. 
But as sunshine starts to appear, our next project is fast approaching - our garden! I have some high hopes for our long garden plot, including a larger patio and some much needed privacy. I didn’t think I would be, but I’m rather excited to get green fingered, and hopefully create a inviting outdoor space 🌿 Any advice for our rather daunting blank canvas? I’d love to hear any ideas!

I am so stoked that our loft is now BOARDED!🌿 Y I am so stoked that our loft is now BOARDED!🌿 You know how it is, those childhood mementos, wedding day cards and the odd air loom just have no other place that somewhere safe, like a loft. It’s something we completely underestimated, but we managed to find someone to undertake the work and we can see the light on our current mess that is upstairs! 
Yes, I thought he was coming on Friday, and yes he did get a fright when I opened the door yesterday morning in my dressing gown, but hey ho, it’s done and I didn’t know I could be so bloody excited for some plywood in a loft!

Did you see it? ✨ The moody new blue in our loun Did you see it? ✨ The moody new blue in our lounge? Dunno why but my colour transformation reel isn’t showing on my grid, but it’s still kicking my around. To say I’m in love with our new colour would be a understatement. Being a bit braver in our new home is coming together, just a few finishing touches to go! 
👈🏼 Swipe left to see the bland before!

What A-Levels do I need to study journalism at University?*

It’s right about now that many people, old and young, that will be considering their next step in career and education. Whether you’re finishing school or jumping back into education after a break, there is lots to consider surrounding further education and University.
Unfortunately there are stages to getting to that end goal of your dream career and that all comes back to the subjects you study and qualify within.

Luckily for me, I always knew I wanted to be in the field of writing, storytelling and ultimately journalism. I seeked advice and support where I could which made the whole process that much easier.

Why you should consider Journalism as a degree?

Journalism has hugelyyyy helped in my career sector. Whilst I may not be the aspiring, hard hitting journalist on New York’s streets ( which I ever dreamed of when at school ), I have in fact done one better. I have a successful, growing space on the web of my own. I have the ability to work with numerous business and help their business grow with copy and I also have freelance pieces that can be shared through typical media outlets like Magazines, newspapers and more.
Journalism is hugely diverse and is a sector that is ever changing. There are lots of pieces of journalism to consider which can help in various career fields, aside from just journalism.

Since you are here, you’re obviously considering to study journalism in the near future. It can be hard to know how to get there, so I’ve collated some of the qualifications you’ll need to grab that Journalism BA spot! I’ve teamed up with Mill Hill School in London with this one and have put together the following information to help aspiring journalists succeed in their careers.

What you’ll need to study at degree level

Journalism is a broad term, which is there’s not a set of subjects you have to take to succeed. With that said, there are some A Level subjects that are more appropriate than others, and it’s likely that you’re already angling towards those anyway.

Essay Based Subjects

Subjects like English Literature or History, are great places to start since they will help you with your writing skill. Analysis subjects like these really help when it comes to constructing knowledge base journalism pieces like politics.

Consider a Language

Language subjects are an added bonus and can put you at a huge advantage when seeking employment. Multi-lingual journalists can be pretty hard to come by!

More specific

If you are aware of an area you’d like to cover in journalism, than consider grabbing A-Levels that will help your cause. Things like politics, economics or even media can help with your further understanding down the line

Other top tips to strengthening your portfolio

There are other things you can consider getting involved with, aside from your A Level subjects, which will help you get onto a Journalism course at university.

I would highly recommend building a portfolio and showcase your skills and dedication to the field. Think about starting a blog or perhaps contributing to your local newspaper. If broadcast journalism is more your cup of tea then you’ll need to brush up on your public speaking skills, so it’s worth considering joining a debate club, or even starting a podcast.

Journalism is a great field to study. With an array of transferable skills, and avenues you may have never considered ( like blogging, freelance and more), it’s certainly not a degree that will be wasted!
