First Post

Okay, so I've never wrote a personal blog before and haven't had a want to until recently.

I should probably start this by introducing who I am and what I do.

So my name is Ashley Street, im 21 years old and studying at Swansea Metropolitan University.

Me outside the Louvre in Paris.

Great, so that was easy...

In more depth I currently live with my partner in Aylesbury, North Buckinghamshire, but I study in Swansea (long commute, right?) Wrong my final year doesn't have many contact hours so I can study up here and pop down and stay in Swansea as and when needed.

I'm in my third year now, studying Creative Digital Media. I love all aspects of Digital Media, but defiantly favour Front-End Web + App development way more than anything else. 

Recently I have acquired a Internship in London, for a huge company. I am obviously super excited for this as it is a huge foot in the door for me! I start on August 4th communting into London Mon - Thurs. I aim to blog each day about my experience of my Internship, just so I have something I can look back upon when I'm feeling stressed and deflated in my third year and think 'You know what, you can do this, push yourself, motivate yourself and get it together'

I am also working part time as a baker on a Friday and Saturday, I will talk about this but not too much as it's not exciting and everything I do whilst there doesn't account for much, it just offers some financial stability over the summer and during my final year.

In total I will be working 50 hours a week over the summer. Although I am not viewing the internship as a job. It's what I want to do, it's going to be my life, it's the first step to the rest of my life and I am ready to embrace it.

So this is it for now, I will blog again when I have my first day and let you know how it goes!
