A long and winding road....

Over Christmas and New Year I was preparing for some important work experience relating to my future career.

Now that I am three weeks in, I can honestly say I have never worked so hard in my entire life.

I have found this experience to be challenging, stressful and hectic but also rewarding in ways I cannot even put into words.

I struggled with the big question of  'what I wanted to be' for years and it actually caused me a lot of stress and at times,worry. That may sound silly but it was an important decision for me. I feel that a career can be an extension of who we are as a person. It something we are (hopefully!) interested in, something we dedicate time and effort to and is an area of our lives we want to achieve in.

We spend a lot of our lives working and I want to enjoy my work.

I am now certain that the path I chose is the right one for me and this knowledge is, in my eyes, invaluable.

One word: Yum

Yes, I'm really being good to myself...

All the serious stuff aside I had a great Christmas and New Year, and I hope you did too!

I will be back posting again next week with some beauty-ful reviews. Happy February! xx
