What song do I think everybody should listen to once in their life?
I was first going to choose a song that could mean something to someone, but great music for me gets me dancing and singing along regardless of the lyrics. With this in mind I’d have to go with Does It Make You Feel Good by Confidence Man, it’s pure dance-pop ecstasy and invokes my favourite hedonistic feeling of completely losing myself on the dance floor and partying like nothing else matters. It’s not such an intense beat that it becomes aggressive on the ears and has enough mellow synth electronica with a classic dance beat making it perfect for pre-drinks, the main event or afters. I can listen to it at any time of the day and think there’s something everyone can enjoy in it.
What book/film should everyone have read/seen?
The most amazing book I’ve read is The Constant Rabbit by Jasper Fforde. A deeply entertaining political satire about life in a small conservative English town in a world where a massive anthropomorphising event caused the creation of human-size rabbits and other animals who walk, talk and pay taxes. What results is a remarkably well-built and scarily realistic world with complex human-rabbit relations that keep the pages turning at an alarming rate. I loved all the characters and was constantly surprised, entertained and hooked when reading this book. I would recommend this talet to everyone!
What have I missed the most over the last 102 days?
The last 102 days represent my summer since finishing university. I've travelled a lot and had loads of fun with great people I’ve met over the last 4 years. Whilst I loved not having the pressure of uni work looming over me, I’ve missed having the solid plan of knowing I’ll be back at uni in September. My first summer without knowing where I am going to be or what I’m going to do next has definitely been nerve-wracking. Partying and working the festival has been great but has added more stress to flat hunting and job searching.
I was almost considering a masters just to know what I would be doing for the next year but decided against it as I don't want to be booked in somewhere for that long. It’s scary but I’m excited to figure out what I want to be doing for the foreseeable future and where I want to be based.
