J for Jobs

319002_457416000971233_1663516955_n_large


Since I started sixth form in September, it feels like everyone around me is employed - they can afford clothes, trips to the cinema, Leeds tickets and in some cases a car!

Everyone complains about having a job but I think sometimes they forget what it's like to have to ask your mum for money, or to not have any at all - I haven't bought myself any new clothes in ages (and there is an amazing H! by Henry Holland dress from Debenhams that I really want) but I would just like some independence from my parents - I hate being so reliant on them for money.

People think that I haven't looked for a job which simply isn't true, I've applied everywhere. But who wants a 17-year-old sixth former with no experience? And besides, there's a million people out there like me looking for a weekend-and-evening job, most of the time it seems to be a simple case of knowing the right people.

As for my future career, I have no idea of what I'll end up doing, most of the things I would like to do are almost impossible to make a living out of (ie. writing and baking) I'm not fussed about having loads of money, enough so I can be comfortable is alright by me, especially if I love or atleast like my job. I haven't given up on the idea of marrying a millionaire or being found on Heir Hunters (I've been watching way too much daytime TV over the past couple of weeks - my dad won't pay for Sky Plus) 

Do any of you work? And if you do, do you like it?

Just eat cake and be happy







As promised - I've posted an outfit!
I wore this outfit when I went shopping in town with Hannah (of Doubleyou fame) and our friend Abbi, whose gladiator sandal you can just see in the final photograph. It was a good day, as town with my friends always is - and some of the photos were taken in the New Look changing rooms and whilst walking around H&M.
