Work Experience at King Edward VI College
Posted on 10:14am Friday 18th January 2013
For the past week, I’ve been on a work placement at King Edward VI College in Stourbridge, gaining some insight into the career of teaching. Being a teacher is a possibility for me, so I thought getting some hands on experience within the sector would be vital. Conducting unpaid and voluntary work also looks great on your CV.

Sell by dates on fruit and vegetables
Posted on 10:00am Thursday 17th January 2013
I recently came across an article which talked about the sell by date of packaged fresh fruit and vegetables and how so many top supermarkets throw away vast amounts on a regular basis. I was aware that it happened, just not in the quantities as described. I also know that vegetables don't always grow into the perfect aesthetically pleasing shape that we consumers demand, resulting in some of the more substandard looking vegetables being discarded before they even reach the supermarket shelves.

Christmas the world over.
Posted on 5:00pm Tuesday 15th January 2013
We’ve just pulled round from a bout of ‘festivitis’ – that’s my word for spreading ourselves too thinly over the festive period. Being expats, the question every December is ‘are we staying here or going there’? For Christmas, my heart will always be in England, not only because that is where my family is but also because other countries do Christmas so differently.

Happy New Year!
Posted on 4:59pm Monday 14th January 2013
For me 2013 was truly welcomed in with a bang! After many years of watching the London New Year's celebrations on the TV, I was very excited to have the opportunity to see them with my own eyes!

My Birthday!
Posted on 12:53am Sunday 13th January 2013
One of the greatest things in m life of which I'm most thankful, yet most modest to mention in my life is how much I appreciate and am grateful for such wide group of friendly, loving and caring family and friends that I am blessed with - at no time can I feel the truth of this other than at my Birthday. On reflection I think that I have had a very lucky life to know such awesome people, to of been offered such a rich variety of opportunities, and for the position that I am in now, as well as thinking about what the future holds in store, and what I can achieve. But for now; It's My Birthday

RT: When Do You Stop Reading a Blog Post?
Posted on 8:43am Saturday 12th January 2013
When you click on to a blog post, that being because it's got an interesting title or you like the writer etc, does there come a point where it's just too long and you don't even bother reading it? Do you take one look at the length and decide if you're going to read it right there, regardless of the reason why you clicked on it in the first place? Do lengths of blogs matter to the reader? RT investigates...

New Years Resolution.
Posted on 5:22pm Friday 11th January 2013
I honestly can't believe its now 2013, 2012 absolutely flew by for me it's really strange for me to think these are the last few months for me at secondary school and in September i'll be starting college and working on my passion which as you know is baking and Patisserie.

Heaths do have colour if you look closely enough
Posted on 7:00am Thursday 10th January 2013
A WALK out onto the heaths around Kidderminster may feel like a strange place to look for the first signs of the arrival of spring’s bright colours, as superficially, heaths at this time of year look pretty bleak.
