Graduation

If you didn't already know, I graduated from the University of Huddersfield with a 2:1 degree in History, and if I'm gonna be completely honest, I'm quite proud of myself!

Anyway, I thought I would upload some photo's from my graduation. There isn't many but here they are. Enjoy!

My boyfriend and I with our fancy caps and gowns on. Don't we look like a sight for sore eyes!

I love this photo, it's a shame my mum's camera was blurry!

Not the best photo, but hey ho! My dad took this whilst I was in the middle of a sentence and not prepared at all!

Here is me in my complete graduation get up!

I hope this gets those of you starting you're last year at university/college excited for what's to come! :D

So it has been a while!

I guess I should start with the question 'What have I been up to during my blogging break?'
Well, I've just been busy with general life things!

I went on my birthday holiday to Rome, which was INCREDIBLE! I loved it and I am dying to go back already... but there'll be more on that in another post.

I also graduated from university. How exciting is that?! Graduation went smoothly and I didn't fall over, I call that a success! Again, I'm probably going to a whole other post about my graduation.
Finally, I've just been going on the worlds most difficult quest, also known as job hunting. So far this hasn't been going as successfully as I imagined it would. When I signed up for university I was promised the guarantee that I could finish university and employers would be begging at my feet to hire me. I have since found that this is not the case. Job hunting itself is like a full-time job and this is what has been occupying my time the most! I've had a few interviews, but nothing has come of them unfortunately.
However, I had an interview just this morning for Lush handmade cosmetics as a Christmas temp. I worked there last Christmas, so hopefully they take me on again and I can finally have a little bit of money coming in! I also have another interview tomorrow at my local leisure centre. Sure, these aren't the big and exciting job that I thought I would walk straight into, but at the moment I'm in the mindset of 'a job is a job'. 

However...

So far in this post I have been playing it cool about my interviews. But there is also one other very exciting job opportunity that I have an interview for, and that is.....
working as a cultural representative at DISNEY. FREAKING DISNEY!
This has been my dream job since I was about 8 years old and I'm on the first step to achieving that goal! I AM SO EXCITED! It is a pre-screen group interview in Essex, so I am having to travel quite a way, but I am so willing to do that for this opportunity! At the moment that is all I know, but I will let you guys know how I get on!

Thanks for reading!

Get to know me!

Now that you have been introduced to my blog, let me introduce you to me!
Here's a photo of me, so you know what I look like!
Here's a photo of me, so you know what I look like!

I figured the easiest way to do this is to get to the point and do a 'ten facts about me' kind of deal.
  1. My name is Paige Cullen.
  2. I have recently completed my final year of University where I studied History.
  3. I have 2 younger sisters, that I love to bits!
  4. My birthday is on the 23rd June. I'll be turning 21 this year!
  5. I have a passion for travel and I should hopefully be going to Rome soon :D
  6. I have the most amazing boyfriend, who I love very much. We have only been together for 5 months, but we were friends for 2 years prior to getting together.
  7. I am currently enrolled on an online TEFL course and I hope to go to China to teach English at some point.
  8. I currently only have one tattoo at the top of my back. I would like to get more, I've just not decided on what I want yet.
  9. Lush is my favourite shop, I worked there over Christmas and I loved it, it was one of the best jobs I have ever done! I didn't get kept on though, sad times.
  10. I have only just gotten around to watching Lost. I am addicted, I don't know why I didn't watch it sooner!
There you have it, ten facts about me!
