Back to reality!

I’ve decided I need to sort myself out and actually write on this blog more often!

Me and the family got back from two weeks in the boiling hot sun of Fremantle, Australia and it was snowing here at home! The family went “down under” because my dad is part of the Hull and Humber crew for the Clipper round the world sailing race.  Whilst I was there I had plenty of time to think (whilst I sunbathed, of course!) and decided that I really need to get a placement sorted!

Luckily at the new years celebrations the race held at the sailing club I was introduced to the Hull and Humber boat’s skipper Danny, whose girlfriend is the head of PR for a leading UK PR agency Nelson Bostock. After speaking to her about what the company does and who the clients are, I brought up whether she would be willing to take me on for a few weeks and she seemed keen to help me!

The exams have been and gone, thank god! Our house was a bit mental for the few weeks of exams; red bull and pro plus were our main diet (never mix the two!!) and late nights learning theories became the norm in the days running up to the PR theory exam! Honestly not sure how the two exams went, fingers crossed I won’t have to re-sit any later in the year!

Back to lectures and seminars tomorrow, bright and early!
