Soap & Glory-ious Bournemouth

So like many others this year, I fled the nest in September! I was both nervous and excited as I embarked on the three year course in Multimedia Journalism at Bournemouth University. But why Bournemouth I hear you ask?

Bournemouth University boasts the best media department in the country with graduates winning awards at prestigious film festivals and working on movies such as 'Gravity' starring the incredible Sandra Bullock, it quickly became obvious that Bournemouth was the university for me!

As an up and coming journalist, it has become apparent  that my passion for beauty and fashion is something that I want to specialise in in the foreseeable future. For as long as I can remember I have religiously watched Youtubers such as Lauren Luke (panacea81- who remembers her?!) and avidly followed bloggers such as Lily Pebbles and ViviannaDoesMakeup on a daily basis. And anyone who knows me, will tell you how desperate I am to start my own Youtube channel because it seems that I am yet to find someone who can fulfil ALL of my talking needs! This is why I would love to become a Soap and Glory Glambassador for Bournemouth University.

Probably the best thing I have done since I started at Bournemouth is signing up to Nerve Radio and hosting a radio show on Friday mornings at 9am with my co-hosts Claudia and Jess. I would love to combine my passion for beauty and fashion with my new found love for radio to possibly create a radio show or podcast based on all things blushes, blouses and brows?! I feel there is a real gap in the market for something like that!

Now it's all very well me painting the picture of myself as a wonderfully studious individual but how can I talk about Bournemouth without mentioning the nightlife?! There's Halo Mondays, where once you get over the fact that you're dancing in an old converted church where people used to sing hymns and pray, it makes for a decent night out! Cameo Wednesdays, probably Bournemouth's  most renowned 'student night' where you are assured VK's left, right and centre and the distant chants of the infamous 'Will Griggs'. And finally Lollipop Fridays at The Old Firestation, the only place where you can go from Skepta to S Club 7 in a matter of 5 steps. Why would you want to be anywhere else?!

Thank you for reading!
