Well, this is awkward. I hate writing about myself, I see it a bit big-headed personally. You know, writing about how great you are and how much you have accomplished, kind of rubbing it in. But hey you have to start somewhere and let your audience know who you are!

Now as I am starting to write this the first thing I can hear is a voice in my head reminding me of the judgment of other people. For anyone coming to this page from my personal life, you read and enjoy and give feedback, but I will not be taking any negativity, I created this page to help myself and others.

Now I can introduce myself; Hi I’m Kasia, full name Katarzyna. I was born in Lodz, Poland and moved to the UK in 2007. I am currently 19, born on the 20th January 2000 and I have no siblings. Pure bliss. I moved with my parents to try and start a new life, went through various schools, moved houses, made friends, the usual.

Yet one aspect within “the usual” changed me through my last years of school and college. Going to a Catholic school, as I am Polish and it is a normal occurrence, I was spoon-fed through the ages of 11-15 that religion is important and God is real, but when I got to the age of 16 we were able to decide what we study next, I continued to study religion.

Now, you would probably expect me to explain how it developed my faith and brought me closer to God. Well, it was quite the opposite actually. In my GCSE years, I learnt a lot about Gods love and power, the gift of free will and pain and suffering in the world, which lead me to a bit of confusion and raised a lot of common questions in my mind that come with religion. Upon passing my GCSE Religious Studies I continued to work further on them and chose it as an A-Level topic. This was quite different to GCSE as it went through more of the philosophical and ethical outlooks on religion and allowed me to decide on the path of faith that I am on right now. I am not religious but I do adapt the views of love thy neighbour and acceptance that religion preaches.

Moving on, something more interesting however is my pure obsession with my pets. Below is an image of my three precious dogs, Dexter, Leo and Bandit. I have always had a love for animals, especially dogs, they are the perfect life long companion.

I have also seemed to create an unhealthy obsession with rap music, Especially G-Eazy, to the point where I risked my A-level grades to see him in concert before my final exams. Judge me all you want but it’s a step up from my 2012 Justin Bieber phase. Don’t get me wrong he’s not my world, maybe, I do like other music such as Lorde, Halsey and The Weeknd, but he is my favourite and within my favourite genre.

I can also proudly say I have travelled quite a bit of the world for my age which has now shaped me into the person I am today. I have visited Scotland, Spain, Greece (including various islands), Italy, Netherlands, Germany and obviously many areas within the UK. All thanks to my parents of course because I’m a broke student and could never afford to travel so much myself! But really, seeing all these different cultures, traditions and behaviours from all different parts of the world has lead me to have quite a broad understanding and acceptance of a lot of things, which I will forever be grateful for.

A very typical thing about me is that I love make-up. I like doing it on myself, on others, watching YouTube videos on it and collecting it! I don’t see myself as an MUA but I would say I’m quite good when it comes to brushes and colours, which would also include my love for art and drawing. Art is more of a personal expression, a way to feel better yet make-up is just something fun and for a boost of confidence.

Relationships wise, I have been with my boyfriend for 4 years now, we started dating in school and have been inseparable since, and even though he shatters my last nerve every day, I do love him very much.

Friendships, I have had a lot but no more lasting than a couple of years, unfortunately. Simply due to just growing up and developing as a person I guess. Right now I have currently been blessed by my best friend, who I met at university, and multiple others who make the journey so much more enjoyable.

To finish off, I am a full-time university student, and I love it! I really enjoy my course and have gained so many story-worthy experiences in my first year that I will have to share with you all. Also including struggles along the way of course and moving away from home.

Thank you for reading and getting to know me, I know its quite long for a first post but I saw it to be important for the audience that will be reading my posts to know me, similar to a friend relation.

I hope you enjoy reading and I look forward to creating content for you!

Love, Kasia x
