hey i’m shannon and i have no clue what to say about me because i am a very boring person lol

the last number of years have been the worst years of my life for sure but also helped so much in figuring out my future in a way? long story short i wanted to be cabin crew for YEARS, since i was so little and i then was meant to start with easyjet on 21/06/2022 however i couldn’t pass the medical because of my mental health - at the time i was devastated but quickly got over it as i used to work in the airport checking in, boarding and meeting flights which was a really good experience and i have some amazing memories but you had to put up with sooo much verbal abuse (and sometimes even physical sadly). i was kinda forcing myself into the whole airport career plan because that’s what i always wanted to do but knew since summer of 2021 that i wanted to do something else.

fast forward to may this year, i finally handed my notice in and worked my last ever shift eeeek - i accepted that it’s not what i want anymore and eventually moved on (if you ever work in the airport you’ll know how difficult it is to leave, you catch some airport disease or something that makes it so difficult to leave i swear😂) but since then things have gotten SO much better in terms of education / career as i went back to college and currently doing health and social care which so far is going well, and i also completed my ocn level 1 peer mentoring and completing my ocn level 2 youth work qualification atm too which has been the BEST experience ever!!! alongside education, i am also volunteering with Shout which i find really enjoyable like helping others helps me so much? and also volunteer in a primary school too which is so fun! i’m hopefully soon starting volunteering in a youth club, i just need to get the access ni check sorted first then im good to gooooo!! im so glad ive finally accepted long term it’s not the airport i wanna be at, i think its youth work but ive really considered social work a lot too:)

other than that, i am a lonely cat gal that is addicted to hollyoaks lol i am not the social little butterfly that people expect at the age of 20, i would much rather be in bed watching netflix with my cat - he loves a bit of spongebob and im unsure of how i came to that discovery hahaha i’ve attached a little photo of buster with his jellycat dinosaur (it was meant to join my jellycat collection but buster decided to be a thief and steal him on me lol) buster also enjoys going walkies - yes a cat going for walks haha, i’m just too scared to let him be an outdoor cat in case something happens to him as i see it often enough with outdoor cats so yes buster goes for walks as if he’s a doggy lol
