Fancy a Brew?

I'm terrible for wanting a piece of all the action, so when I saw that a fellow OU student had begun writing for a new website and that they had vacancies for other writing positions I applied without hesitation or forethought.

That was almost a month ago and I'm absolutely thrilled to announce that I received an email this morning offering me a position! So... I soon begin writing for Brew Drinking Thinkings as their travel/culture writer. I'll be writing about cities, their history and their culture so I'll be trying as hard as I can to make it as interesting and compulsive-reading as I can.

Watch this space!

Tell me what's your flava.

In a bid to avoid being lazy, here's the links to all the blog posts I've written since the last one I linked to on here, there's a few:

My very own blog, with a title and everyfink!

Platform recently relaunched with a brand new image and I was fortunate enough to have my blog transferred over to the new-look site too.

As part of the 'new look' my blog was given it's own title "Carrie On Being A Student". Clever innit, I was right chuffed when Rob came up with that, it made me feel a bit special.

So anyway, the reason I haven't posted on here in such a long time is because everything's on the Platform blog now, scoot over and have a look.
