A really awesome time at Channel 4 studios in a gorgeous part of London. Although I wasn't particularly feeling well that eve, I made sure to come in for an informative talk of getting into the TV industry! It also included a lot of helpful info about applying for schemes and how you have to try your absolute best to let your personality show through black and white; thousands of applications are looked out, what will make me different?
In any job I apply for, I [.....]
This time last year, I was just getting my head around the whole graduation thing, but now, I can honestly say I'm decisive and determined in pursuing a future in journalism - I'm moving steadily on the same road thankfully!
Again, this year at the spring graduate fair, I conversed with stands from a range of different industries; they were all so helpful and full of advice.
After leaving I couldn't help but realise that people that always say that there is nothing for them to [.....]

Another great perk of working for On In London :-)
I had a very tiresome week and was offered a chance to review London's first ever sushi burrito bar; Hai Street Kitchen!
I'm glad I went as it was genuinely a nice day and experience. I love the idea of making reviews for organisations that are just starting up. We all have to start from somewhere right?
I'm always sure to be honest and quirky with my reviews; another reflection of the kind of journalist [.....]
These words puts so much into perspective. Yes, I'm a busy person, but I always make sure to remind myself of WHY I'm doing what I'm doing. I thrive of many things such as productivity; so one should always be able to benefit from what they do that keeps them so 'busy'.
Planning is everything, and so very crucial during these tense times and being in my final year of university.
Take it one step at a time, analyse what you're doing and make no [.....]
A personal video blog of mine showing the fantastic time I had at the Beyoncé concert at London's o2 arena!! [.....]
My boss from one of the publications I write for asked me this question. It struck me for about half of a second and I blurted out my exact thoughts at the time. I said:
"It's a way of me showcasing my talent, not only for the public to see but for me to analyse my growth as I gain more skills by producing things that will be involved in my future career. These two documentaries in particular have always been in mind and I thought hey why not! A journalist is everything publicly related and as I eventually want to present documentaries, I thought I'd try making a few which turned out well! The homeless documentary [.....]
