in Introduce Yourself
Hello! I have just finished my undergrad degree and am in the middle of applying for a postgrad, and am extremely anxious, yet optimistic. I have found through my studies the importance and relevance of supportive environments and how much impact they actually have on people. I have been looking for the perfect voluntary experience for myself for a long time, and then I came across the mix, and instantly applied!

I am here for anyone needing advice, support or just a simple chat about anything. I typically enjoy gaming, and absolutely love music. My dogs are another area of discussion I am happy to talk about, especially if you also have pets, or a strong love for animals :smile:

I cannot wait to start volunteering and look forward to meeting/talking to you all :bleep_bloop::heart:

    Hey Rosie!

    It's lovely to meet you. You may appreciate this thread that I made a wee while back https://community.themix.org.uk/discussion/3597497/pet-thread#latest

    I'm aware it's been buried so may be hard to find but it's a pet thread!

    I've got lots of pets, as you'll find out as you get to know me more :)

    I'm also at uni! Going into my 3rd of 4 years UG. What did you study at UG level? And what's your plans for PG?

    Hi @Anch0r33 , I will definitely be looking into that thread then! I actually studied a BSc in Psychology with Counselling, and am in the process of finding a MSc in counselling, but am struggling to find the right course at the moment :smile:

    That's awesome Rosie! How have you been finding counselling? I'm studying a joint honours English lit/theatre studies but hoping to go into either social work or teaching!

    Oh cool! I have a friend who is studying English Lit who found it brilliant! Counselling degree is okay, I was kind of let down by a particular lecturer, but it just encouraged me to keep going, and im now more optimistic than ever :D
