Tumblr

I really forgot how lovely Tumblr can be until I set one up for work a few weeks ago (having totally neglected my personal Tumblr). 



At work, it's usually just the architecture-themed blogs I look at, but even those are beautiful.


I signed up for Tumblr Dec 17th 2009 (yep, actually went & checked), & until recently was pretty sure that apart from those on it & other slightly-geek-about-new-things-on-the-internet people knew about, but if the recent press it's been getting is anything to go by, it's just getting bigger & bigger - which, in this case, definitely means better... *Note - when I can find online copies of the articles that have mentioned Tumblr, I shall update this post!
In the meantime;

An awesome 'I heart Tumblr' blog post 


Tumblr's 'Goodies'!

Cute Boys With Cats. Don't think I need to say more!

And a few of my favorite, random pictures from the site itself:




 Oh, apart from the occasional bits of text, there are some amazing links too -


Enjoy!  ♥

Job + Flat = The Dream.

Time's been going so quickly! I've now only got about a month left at my internship (this is my excuse for lack of blog-posts - all my blogging effort has gone into this blog.  Check it out, it's pretty jazzy. 


But this means that I've got to start looking for a 'real' job now! Which is exciting & scary in equal parts...Well actually, I think that now I've had this experience in an office environment & know that I'm actually capable of doing the job, I'm more excited


Which is definitely a good thing! Because with a job comes a flat (hopefully)! 
Therefore, it should come as no great surprise that I've spent many hours already looking at property porn.
Ranging from the 'I could never afford this in a million years, but isn't it beautiful'
 For the Super Rich only


*sigh*
But having said that, there are a few gems I've come across too, which aren't eye-wateringly pricey, which is nice to know. Only thing is, I don't know where I'm going to be working, or who I'm going to be living with (either The Boy or Sj) & where they'll want to live...Because I don't really have a preference at the moment, as long as I'm near a tube or train. 
This is mainly because my hatred for busses can threaten to become consuming at times.  
And another awesome side to moving out will be being able to decorate!!! Eeeee.
Hello Ikea!

As for the job hunt - well! 
The websites I've been casually looking at include:
Artshub 
Creative Review 
Brand Republic 
University of the Arts 

I think I'm going to start applying to a few jobs listed soon (when I know my current leaving date, etc.), but a couple of friends have mentioned that it might be easier to sign up with a recruitment agency, so I might just do that too! 

FIngers crossed :]
