Recently I graduated from uni, whilst the day itself was one of happiness it actually marked quite a sad moment in my life; the realisation that I was no longer a student. No more Topshop student discount, no more late night Kens, no more hangover days with my housemate and worst of all, no more Portsmouth. My three years at uni were most definitely the best three years of my life so far. I hope, of course, that I haven't peaked and that everything else isn't down hill from here on in!
During my graduation ceremony Sheila Hancock (yes you read that right!) made a closing speech. She applauded our achievement and told us that we were all wonderful, how lovely of her! She also went on to tell us that we were better than these celebrities who have zero achievements (apart from posing naked) who swan around the red carpet as if they own it. Why do so many girls out there aspire to be like that? Ok yes it may seem like an easy option..get a boob job (since when was surgery easy?), plaster on the make-up like a drag queen, hit a London club and hunt down a footballer. Easy peasy, you're set for life, sure, you may have lost all respect, but who needs that when you've got diamonds? When I compare myself to these girls it makes me even more proud of my degree, I might not have diamonds and an Aston Martin but I definitely have respect (provided you don't bump into me out on the tiles at the weekend).
P.S That doesn't mean to say that I don't want diamonds and an Aston Martin..a DB9 if you were wondering..
