hello twenty two.
Yes, I hate myself for the title of this post but I couldn’t pass up on the opportunity (sorry). I can’t believe I’m sat here writing this post when it feels like only yesterday I was celebrating my 21st. So, I’m well and truly into my 20s now and thats terrifying but somewhat exciting all at the same time.
I mentioned in my 21st birthday post that I wanted to complete my degree, preferably with a First or 2:1 and I think past Lucy would be pretty happy to know that I bagged a First – woo! I also mentioned how I wanted to start my career as a freelance photographer. I’m working towards this one slowly but surely, its only been 4 months since I graduated so I’m trying to cut myself a lil bit of slack. So I suppose I’m where I wanted to be? Wow.
So, 22. Not a particularly profound age and God knows what I’ll achieve in my 22nd year on this planet. Whilst studying, I always had some sort of plan because I knew I still had ‘X’ amount of months/years left in education, so I didn’t need to worry about the real world yet. However, this year is totally different and I do feel like I’ve been thrown in at the deep end. Trying to figure out what you want to do whilst still attempting to earn some money is hard. It doesn’t help that we’re in the midst of a pandemic I suppose but what can ya do? Anyway, this year I really want to push myself in terms of starting my own business/becoming freelance and see what I’m capable of. I think thats the main aim.
So yes, happy birthday to me I suppose and here’s to another year of progress – cheers!
