And in other news..

Thought that I would fill you in on some important little bits of information that have been going on for me in my absence from Bekah's Corner.

  • I passed my driving test the other week!! After putting it off for a while I finally took the plunge and went in for my test. Obviously it went really well and only got 1 minor (you're allowed to have 15 before it's a fail) which I couldn't believe! And yes, don't worry, I'm being sensible and I know that I've still got a lot more to learn etc etc!

  • I've just set up with my course group our first exhibition! This for me is so exciting. Open to the public so anyone can view our work, this is hopefully the first of a few more exhibitions in the future?! The link to my college blog is on the left of this post just below my 'About me' section. If you click on the link, you'll be able to see what I've been up to!



  • I've started volunteering at Guide Dogs for the blind. I was recommended the position in advertising sporting events for the charity by my tutor which was a huge compliment. I work at the office on Friday's and with a couple of brilliant people, I help to design advertisement campaigns for people to do sporting events in a charity place. So far I have helped to do and send off design briefs for the Great North and Great South Run as well as pushing some charity places for the Reading half Marathon!

  • Speaking of the Great North Run, I've got a place to run in it! Running hopefully with my Dad if he manages to get a place somewhere, I'm really looking forward to doing it as it's something that I've always wanted to do.

  • After filling out a Games Maker volunteer application form years ago it feels now for the Olympics, I've just received word that I have got an interview for one of the roles! This still means that there are no guarantees for me making it as a Games Maker, but I'm closer than I was before which is exciting. My interview is in March so I'll keep you posted on how that goes.

  • And finally, I bred my dog Jenna a few weeks ago. Time will tell if she is pregnant or not but so far, it's looking encouraging! She seems to be showing some signs of being pregnant so watch this space! If she is preggers, she'll be due between March 17 and March 21.
So all go here! Maybe it helps explain why I haven't been posting on here but it's still no real excuse. Besides, I've missed not being on here. I know that not many people read this but I see this as one big diary which I love to flick back through from time to time to see how my life is planning out. The plus side for you is that it's a diary that I actually encourage people to have a snoop around so go on, have a nosey and keep tuned for more!

thanks! And yes, the email came through the day after I said to you that it didn't look hopeful.
