Let the studying commence!




This will be my last post for a while now, studying for a BA in Community and Youth Studies has now begun!  I am in my final year of the degree and I am doing this on top of my full-time job as a Voice and Influence Forum Worker at Hull Youth Council.  This does not leave me with much time for blogging and my artwork, which really bugs me but I have no choice but to get on with the first part of the semester.  I am aiming to get back into the artwork during the Christmas break and I will keep adding some photos to my Flickr  :-)

It is so hard to get back into the books when all I can see is Neo my cat snoozing on her favourite puff! x

hope you are enjoying the studying :) i've just finished a pgce whilst working so i know that feeling of not having time for art and other fun stuff. the globalisation books look interesting. hope you are well.x

Thanks, yes I am getting there :-) Two assignments are now out of the way and I have two more to do before Christmas. The globalization module is really interesting, I am learning about global youth work and I have picked body image as my theme.

I am hoping to catch up with the artwork during the Christmas break. In the future I am aiming to combine my art and youth work practice together.

Hi Makiko, Yes it is especially hard at this time of the year, as all I want to do is focus on Christmas :-)

Good luck in your studies too, I am sure you will do really well x
