It made me
Ecstatic

You just have to keep going - check websites every day, give out CVs every weekend and always keep your eyes peeled for vacancies, wherever you go. I kept notes of any interviews I went to so that I could prepare my answers better in future. The most important thing I learnt from this is to persevere. And you will get there.In case you're wondering, I literally just go… Read how I did it…

How to finish a journal
It took me
11 months
It made me
sad to say goodbye

How I did it: Well, I only really started writing in my diary regularly about halfway through. Before that I had only really written in it when something exciting happened. Unfortunately my life is slightly boring, so it was taking a while to fill up. When I started to write every day I found that I actually had a lot to say, and I really feel like I've learned a lot about myself from writing this journal. Read how I did it…

Find 100 quotes that inspire me (read all 10 entries…)
10.

“I love people. I love them, I think, as a stamp collector loves his collection. Every story, every incident, every bit of conversation is raw material for me. My love’s not impersonal yet not wholly subjective either. I would like to be everyone, a cripple, a dying man, a whore, and then come back to write about my thoughts, my emotions, as that person. But I am not omniscient. I have to live my life, and it is the only one I’ll ever have. And you cannot regard your own life with objective curiosity all the time.”
~Sylvia Plath
