Alexandra's First Thoughts on the Birth of her Blog.

Excruciating boredom, the result of my ongoing unemployment and the annual, horrendous canyoubelieveitwilleverend summer holiday have inspired me to create this blog. I am hopeful that my bountiful readership will be brimming with excitement at this news, clinging to the edge of chairs nationwide wondering what it is I will be writing about in the oncoming weeks. You may find this a ludicrous idea, but wait whilst I explain the failsafe reasoning behind it. Lost has taught me that hope is a very important thing, in fact all you need to achieve your dreams, be they having said bountiful readership, or escaping curious smoke monster on moving island. I am therefore confident that Lost knows best and I may go on hoping for whatever I wish...(Lost obsession has also grown out of the soil of tedious, definitely in vain, job hunting that the summer of 2010 has brought.)

In writing this I am envisaging my life having some sort of Carrie Bradshaw-esque glamour which it never has. A sad life is mine, lowly student whittling away the summer months in Essex before I can start at university in September. Only one goal has possessed me this summer. Stricken by poverty/boredom I have attempted to find employment in this delightful market town. Alas, after numerous failings a crushing defeat occurred as follows -  Alexandra was denied a job at the ONE STOP. 


What I am destined to become. 
Having picked myself up off the ground I decided to turn my attention instead to - not finding employment, which I find is working much better for me. But before you go thinking me a lazy sluglike character I must let you know that I am doing work experience which is unpaid but I am confident I will reap the rewards of this charity work through the high-flying graduate career which is soon to come my way, failing that I will certainly enter heaven

  1. Let's start with the positive - you follow Boys in the Pink - good show madam! Excellent site, far better than your site quite frankly.

    As to your future, you are quirky, sarcastic, irreverent and, best of all, a young female, and so my money is on your new home being No 10 Downing Street in a few years time.

    The future is female - sadly, I'm just a rubbish male.

  2. Further to my last comment, however, yours is a very readable and witty blog and based upon it you should do well as a writer and journalist (if you do decide to plump for those fields rather than politics when you get your masters)
