I know the title isn't the most imaginative thing in the world but I thought it depicted my excitement perfectly.
After three years of studying English Language with Creative Writing, I can finally say that I will be officially graduating in November (why so late Chester?) with a 2:1 Combined Honours Degree! I knew I had a lot to prove going to University. I was the first in my family to make an attempt and honestly, the pressure of falling flat on my face was a little overwhelming at times. However, I've somehow managed to persevere and made it to the end of my course in one piece (just about). To anyone that is thinking about University, I encourage you to do it for the right reasons. The pride you feel on completion of such a task is, thus far, incomparable to any other sense of self-achievement. However, does this mean that I have to stop asking for student discounts in New Look and at the cinema? Cause I'm not quite ready to give up that privilege.

The group chats have been overtaken by the Love Island gossip and 9pm marks the most unsociable hour in Britain. And tonight is allegedly set to be the most explosive episode yet with Johnny marking his territory against new boy Theo and the previously solid Gabby and Marcel face their first ever challenge as a couple. There's no surprise that Olivia and Chris continue to bicker but Kem and Amber are supposedly stronger than ever after their split and brief recoupling with Nathan and Chyna, both of whom have now been evicted.
But the main question on everyone's lips is who is real and who is not? Last year we watched Nathan and Cara blossom and Olivia and Alex develop what has now become an engagement. And despite Nathan and Cara's recent split, I don't think anyone can accuse them of being fake. Gabby and Marcel have been the nation's most loved couple so far but the disappointment that followed them kissing other individuals during a game may have revealed a vital weakness. In the real world, would be so quick to kiss another person for the sake of a game or would we refuse to spare the feelings of our other halves? Montana and Alex also seem to be pretty strong so far, but again, it's early days. In tonight's episode, it is alleged that new boy Theo could be set to steal the heart of either Montana or Tyla, who has quickly become one of the nations most hated contestants for splitting up Camilla and Johnny. In hindsight, I'm glad Camilla I rid of such a control freak. Olivia and Chris have been doomed since the Mike debacle, despite how much they like each other. And as for Kem and Amber, I feel as though both of them are playing a game or are afraid of commitment. I'm excited to see where Camilla and Jamie end up following their date last night which revealed their similar personalities. Perhaps they could be the first real couple this year? Once the temperature reaches a minimum of 14 degrees in Britain, the nations strips. The British sport their tan lines with pride and compare sun burn patches that will soon develop into a golden brown. Sun cream is for the light hearted and carrot oils fly off the shelves in the hope of achieving that just-been-on-holiday glow and when people ask where you've been, you announce with pride that your tan was nurtured from the comforts of your own back garden.
However, as a member of the Caspar Society, I can only sit and envy those with olive skin and spaghetti-strap tan lines as I smother myself in factor 30 and attempt to cover every inch of exposed, transparent skin. Okay, so perhaps I am exaggerating a little. But the jealousy of the golden tan is real. |
