Graduation.


My blog and I are graduating.

This week, on Thursday 18th July 2013 to be exact, I graduated from Lancaster University and feel like I have basically become an OAP overnight. Slight exaggeration, but it is a very big step in the life of Lauren Victoria Heaven and one I am very conscious of, and one that I now want my blog to reflect. 

I can hardly deny the erratic nature of my blog posts over the last couple of years and I am now determined to straighten it out, to grow up and become a better blogger. I want a massive revamp, of both the appearance and subject matter, moving away from such a book orientated title and entering into the realm of lifestyle blogging. It sounds pretentious but it merely means I can blog about a wide variety of subjects which I love: food, music, sport, films and of course, books. It is no secret that my ideal job would be one involving words and my blog is a means of practising this.

Now to choose a new title. With my surname it is very tempting to go down the puntastic route but as yet I have not made a decision. I was considering ‘theheavenlytimes’ but after googling that and discovering a site dedicated to hot tubs that has been firmly crossed off the list. If any of you have any dazzling ideas please don't hesitate to let me know.

Watch this space for shiny new blog antics and good luck to any other new graduates out there, it's scary but god damn is it exciting too!
