Lack of blogging guilt is something that's pretty prominent in my life right now. I feel really awful for leaving my blog well alone for the past few months. It's just been a little tricky to juggle everything, you know?

In September, I went back to University to study Postgraduate Broadcast Journalism; and it's been one of the most hectic things I've ever done. In fact, it is the most hectic thing I've ever done. There's been no time to think, sleep properly, look after myself sufficiently, or even have a life.

This blog'll turn two this week, and the second year hasn't really been brimming with new content. I've even neglected social media recently, especially Instagram. So, sorry about that!

When that final exam's over, I'm hoping to find my blogging mojo and swing back into full force! Normal service will be resumed asap!
