It’s OK To Have No Idea What You Want To Do With Your Life

Okay so this is really just an intro to my blog and how I have finally come around to creating it...

So two years ago I had just entered my last ever year of high school. In a house where both my siblings went to university and graduated pretty impressively I decided to do the whole UCAS thing too, cause why not. The thing is I had absolutely no idea what I wanted to do with my life. One thing i have always been very passionate about is fashion, so I applied to several different fashion related uni courses. Thing is, I did not want to go to uni. I just personally didn't feel like I was ready or like I would be able to handle it.

Come August 2014 I received my exam results and good news (i guess) - I didn’t get into uni which means I didn’t have to break it to my parents that I had already given up on the idea.. just had to break the news of my pretty average higher results. At this point I still had absolutely no idea what i wanted to do with my life.

In a panic I applied to a Retail Management college course which had absolutely nothing to do with fashion and only now did I realise I just wasted a year of my life and money doing something i hate. 

It is now October 2015 and I still have absolutely no idea what I want to do with my life. All I know is that it’s okay to be 19 and to not plan where you want to be in 5 years time. It's okay to work and make money while you decide what path to take. I know that starting a blog is something I have wanted to do for a long, long time and I hope it’s going to help me build on my confidence. I want to have this online journal where i can write about everything I am passionate about whether it be fashion, beauty, health or travel. I want to spend the next year being happy which is something I can’t say I have honestly been for a long time. Moral of the story, if you are in a similar position 1. Don’t stress, it will come to you. 2. Don’t rush into anything because chances are you’ll regret it. 3. My blog posts will be a lot more interesting than this so do come back!!!

PS going to uni is great and not going to uni is also great, just do what makes you happy!!

PPS this isn't really a subject that needed pictures but without it looks so bore so I have inserted a picture of me and my beaut friends at our leavers dance two years ago.
