Starting my blog folks!

Hello everyone, my name is Laura and as you can see, I'm aspiring to be some form of writer in the future. Though my path is not altogether clear, I am hoping to gain some kind of understanding of the writing world. I'm currently a Student at Teesside University. I am currently doing an English Studies and Creative Writing course and I am enjoying it thoroughly, thus far at least! I also did a Film and Television course for two years but decided to switch, due to a combination of mitigating circumstances and a drastic change in life plans. I have a boyfriend who lives in York, a sister who is also at Teesside doing a degree in Gaming Animation (or something like that) and a pair of parents who mean the world to me. I've attempted to start a blog before, but I deleted those ones for classified reasons...(they were rubbish).



As of now I'm at a very strange point in my life, in a sort of student Limbo/Purgatory I suppose. I'm investing most of my time in my university work (going to the Library, reading or sitting glued to my laptop at home) and I've found that blogging is both a relief and a hobby for me. The bf I mentioned earlier has finished his degree and is currently on the hunt for jobs, so fingers crossed he gets one soon! 

But in all honesty, I'm beginning to feel like a bit of a deadbeat. I have never had a long-lasting job in my life, due to a combination of circumstance and because I've honestly never felt any pressure to get one until very recently so basically I feel a bit worthless at the moment, due to the MANY times I've been turned down from potential job opportunities in the past...*sigh*. 



ANYWAY, ENOUGH OF THAT! I'm very, VERY interested in the LGBT community and love discussing issues surrounding racism, sexism, trans-phobia and other inequalities that plague us today. But it's not all doom and gloom! I also love to discuss relationships, life in general, music, TV and books! 


Fitness and health also interest me greatly and I enjoy my Pole fitness classes (that's me and my uni buds down below) and have recently taken up jogging on the new family running machine. No sweat. Talk to you all later!





Loving the pole!
