Believe You Can and You're Halfway There

Believe you can and you're halfway there
Apologies in advance as there will be no beauty chat in today's post. I wanted to take a step back from all things beauty and just unload some of the thoughts that have been going around in my head lately. I think it's always nice to learn a bit more about the bloggers out there so personal posts get a big thumbs up from me! So this is where my head is at lately (& please be prepared for a ramble)..
We're now into September and I can't quite believe how quickly this year has flown by. I really do think there's someone sitting there with a fast forward button because the months just seem to get quicker and quicker as time goes by. It has been a whirlwind year with my 21st birthday, 4 year anniversary with David, graduating from university and, more recently, trying to make my stamp on this world now that I have my degree. As much as I couldn't wait to be finished university and out in the big bad world, I can't help but feel like I'm a bit lost right now. I'm in that limbo between being a university student with a part job & a graduate with a super dooper full time job and this isn't helped when I'm not sure what I want to be doing with my life (career wise at least). 4 years worth of studying different subjects has totally confused me as I just don't know how I'd rather be spending my 9-5 working days, although I'm now at the stage where I'm applying for just about anything that I can get my hands on.
I have this image of where I want my life to go but the only gray area is my career which is pretty annoying. I feel as though my head will be a lot clearer once I manage to get myself a full time job and start putting money towards grown up things like houses and cars, but for now I'm just a bit lost. In the meantime, I just need to keep filling out those application forms and hope for the best!
I have a good feeling about September and for that reason I'm trying to stay as positive as I can. I have a lovely holiday to look forward to next week and what's even more exciting is that I have no idea where we're going. David is such a sneaky one and never fails to surprise me! It will be great to get away from everything and just spend some time with my best friend with no distractions or stress to get in the way. I'm also planning to finally start driving lessons when I get back from my holiday as it's definitely about time I learn to drive. I think I've decided on the local driving school I'll be taking my lessons with so the last thing to do is actually get everything arranged. New experiences are always good so I'm hoping my nerves about driving don't get the better of me.
This ramble has turned into more of an essay so I apologize if I've sent any of you to sleep! It feels good to unload all of this in a blog post so it has been a bit therapeutic too, although putting yourself out there is always a bit scarier than posting your thoughts on the latest makeup release. I hope this month (and the rest of the year) can be good for you all and if any of you are in a similar situation then please just remember..
