I am a 23 yr old design graduate and I have been interning and volunteering for the best part of a year now. I want this blog to be an honest account of how I plan to swim up river like a teeny tiny salmon and make a success of myself in a career I love and actually WANT to work in.Tumblr (3.0; @bloominsuccess)http://bloominsuccess.tumblr.com/So finally I have had a bit of luck (along with hard work, determination and working ALOT for...http://bloominsuccess.tumblr.com/post/18146137242http://bloominsuccess.tumblr.com/post/18146137242Thu, 23 Feb 2012 21:15:02 +0000I am writing at the end of a very long and no eventful day of application writing.  I woke up at 10...http://bloominsuccess.tumblr.com/post/15456223291http://bloominsuccess.tumblr.com/post/15456223291Sat, 07 Jan 2012 16:45:43 +0000<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lx9v9u2AOs1r7widjo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>I have not posted on here for aaaaages! Mainly because I have been up in the stormy Isle of Skye over Christmas and also because life seems to have taken over. But now everyone is returning to work (everyone but me) I am taking this moment of calm to reflect on my next move.</p> <p>I guess the main thing is I have decided that by summer 2012 I will definitely be living down south with Brendan. I am in a bit of a limbo up here and feel that living in my childhood room isn’t exactly allowing me to move on with my future. As much as I love my family and love living here I am 23 and need to get a move on. </p> <p>I have also decided that my ultimate life goal is to set up a charity which will target young people who feel their lives are already pre planned for them. I guess that is one of the fundamental things wrong with society now. People feel stuck in a rut and don’t see how they can reach their dreams and goals. Or even worse some people don’t even have the means to realise what their ambitions are!!</p> <p>In the mean time I have an interview lined up with a gallery in Glasgow next week for a 6 month internship and I am meeting up for a chat with an editor from a Scottish art magazine to discuss a potential job idea. So- things to look forward to!</p> <p>Struggling to keep motivated right now. Even running hasn’t helped set a positive outlook which it normally does. Still, I have to keep soldiering on.</p> <p>OVER AND OUT.  </p>http://bloominsuccess.tumblr.com/post/15291679432http://bloominsuccess.tumblr.com/post/15291679432Wed, 04 Jan 2012 11:44:17 +0000So this is my second post.

She’s a bit of an inspiration of mine…</p>http://bloominsuccess.tumblr.com/post/13567116563http://bloominsuccess.tumblr.com/post/13567116563Thu, 01 Dec 2011 00:51:22 +0000
