A week in the life of Bo

A typical week for me is never the same. So the word typical doesn't really count for me. Ideally I would like my week to be filled with ease however I am always so busy. I try and utilise my time as much as I can and at time it's very difficult depending on what kind of week it is. The most difficult weeks for me are usually deadline weeks where it's all so manic and I am literally at my wits end with myself. Other weeks, it's all good. Life is great. I am smiling and of course we just get on with it.

Below is as close to a typical week as I get. It varies from week to week but this is as consistent as it gets for now.

Monday: My one day weekend. I use this day to have a 'lie in'. Catch-up on some cleaning and use the time wisely to try and plan the week as much as I can. I also use Mondays to do as much University work as I can. 

Tuesday: I am currently a Fashion Assistant at a small Fashion PR Firm in East London. Tuesdays are early starts and usually a late finish for me. 

Wednesday:Wednesday is a full university day for me. This is one day that doesn't change for me. There is always so much catch-up with lecturers. 

Thursday: Full day. It is also another packed day! On this day I start relatively early and finish late in the day. 

Friday-:Another day as a  Fashion Assistant in East London. So early start but as it is Friday it is an early finish and so such things as Friday drinks apply! FRESH FRIDAY HERE I AM.


I work in retail over the Weekends  (Oh yeah) but I am also a Freelance Fashion Stylist www.bodubestyling.4ormat.com (be sure to have a look at my website.)As I am sure you can tell, I enjoy being busy and so every aspect of my working life is important. As I am always so busy I also make priority to enjoy myself at least once a week with my friends whether it's eating out or staying in and watching movies together or better yet cooking big dinners for one another.

Oh hey..!

Hey hey there!
My name is Bo. Final Year PR Student . For those who don't quite know what PR is,(common question) it is Public Relations. The fun course of course! So as I said I am in my final year studying Public Relations, it is a fun course but it is my final year so the word "STRESS" is somewhat common. That of course does not just apply to me but does apply to many other final year students doing anything.
Enough about stresses. I will be selfish and talk a little more about myself (lol) . So naturally I am a really chatty people person and so when I was about 17 my mother told me to look into the studying of Public Relations as a degree. Very few universities in the UK actually do Public Relations as a single honours degree and one of the few Uni's happened to be the University of Bedfordshire. The University of Bedfordshire happened to be fitting for me as the Luton Campus is 30 minutes away from London, there is an airport here as well and also it's an interesting place to be.
Before I started University, I wasn't sure what Luton would be like but its a really surprising town. There is lots and lots of culture and so you are never bored of trying or seeing something out of the ordinary. For those that love to drink there are a fair amount of pubs, there's the infamous Liquid, Chicago's or Yates. If you don't go out much there's some pretty parks, a cinema, restaurants and my personal favourite is some awesome charity shops.
So what have I loved about being at uni? Uni is a real life experience. It shows you life outside the comfort zone of mum and dad without being overshadowed by the big bad world. Things most people look forward to are leaving the loving parents, the freedom of living on your own and meeting new people is usually something most people look forward to. I have experienced all the above but have had way more fun that I have expected. I have learnt so much about myself. There have been some real ups and some real downs but I would never change anything because I would have nothing to talk about otherwise and of course uni life would be boring if it was a hunky dory ride the entire way. A really important factor for me is that I have made some really good friends. It's the best part about Uni. Great friends to share your experiences with. So soppy I know however the friends I have made here are near and dear.
So I could go on forever about my experiences in this particular post but there's lots of stories to be told.
HERE ARE SOME FACTS ABOUT MYSELF.
1. I am the eldest of 4
