LIFE

HELLLLLOOOOOOOOOOOO! I'm really sorry I haven't been here and written for ages, I just felt it wasn't good enough and I needed another hiatus.. But I'm back now! So hello friends!

Recently, I applied for an apprenticeship with Unilever. It's an IT apprenticeship that last for two years and if I get it, I get £250 a week. Now for a first job and for someone who finds it very easy to save money, that's amazing.

I worked out that if I give my mum £40 a week for keep (letting me stay in our house) and spend maybe £20-£30 a week , that leaves me £180 a week.. Times that by 4, which gives us £720 a month.. Times that by 12, which gives us £8,640 a year, times by 2 and I get that £17,280 in my bank account as savings by the end of it.

That's if I even get the apprenticeship and if I keep to that plan. I could get a car with that, the  insurance and even I'd be able to rent a flat for a while.. But, I'll stinge off my parents for as long as I can like ;)

Anyway, I've tried to go through a fitness phase and to be honest, I can never be bothered enough to do any exercise. I think that's probably because the exercises I try and do I don't enjoy. Like, I enjoy cycling and that is pretty much about it.

So I came up with this idea maybe an hour ago, because I was thinking of a SacconeJoly video where Jonathan goes cycling, you know like he does every week and I was thinking, because I really want to travel, and  I mean /really/ want to travel, maybe if  I got a bike, a really good one, I could travel on it.

Obviously the travels would just be small at first, cycle around Great Britain and then Ireland. Then I'd be cycling and seeing the world at the same time. Of course once I'd gotten used to doing it I'd move to other countries like France, Spain, Germany and then hopefully I could move to bigger countries like America and Canada.

This is just an idea, but I'd really, really, really like to do it. I thought as well that while doing it, I could start my YouTube channel then, filming it as I (or we, if someone wanted to do it with me..) travelled and learned about culture and history of the different countries and maybe even raised money for charity while doing it.

I'm literally gonna start writing the next post as soon as this one is published and it's gonna include my bucket list, and what I think travelling is because I feel like people my age don't even know the meaning of a holiday anymore.

P.S. I'm also going to change this account to a personal, so you will all find out my name, what I look like etc, etc.

Cheerio!

4-Day Blog Hiatus

As you can see by the title of this post, I've been on basically a 4-day hiatus.. From the last few posts I made I mentioned that my parents had gone on holiday and that was basically the reason for the hiatus all together. I mean, since they've been away, all I've done is sit in my living room, eat (£40 worth of ordering in), drink water, play on the Xbox. Just not that much has been going on, so I didn't think what I could write would be enough for you all, you know?

Anyway, my parents are back home now. So hopefully I'm going to have more thrilling and exciting posts for you all. I promise.
