I'm doing 7 things
So, I signed up to do an MA in Literature this Sept which was a something of a cop out as I really want to study writing but I still have hangups about whether creativity can be taught but at the same time I don’t think I actually talented enough to get onto a high level writing course.
The Literature course was withdrawn this week as too many people had dropped out at the last minute. So the university offered me the opportunity to apply for the Creative and Professional Writing course. Oh, the irony! I am waiting to hear if my late application, complete with 4000 word writing portfolio, will be accepted on the course that I was too chickensh*t to apply for in the first place!!

How I did it
It made me
Gorgeous!! 
How I did it: Turns out that I needed brains in order to be beautiful. Who knew?! Planning my work schedule to include trips to the hairdressers and the shops was important. But the best thing ever was ironing! Seriously, trying on outfits and ironing them in advance meant that I could define my look and be polished even on my 'can't be bothered' days. Read how I did it…

I find myself making constant superficial judgements throughout the day and no longer wish to be bogged down with such negativity.
Well, if I’m going to emigrate to Canada then I’ll have to brush up on my French. I’ve spent so much time being self-conscious about holding a degree in French yet lacking the confidence to actually speak it.
So today I used the reward vouchers I get from work to buy the Rosetta Stone French system and I’m going to commit to at least 30 mins, 3 times a week and see how it goes.
