March was a much better month than February, but despite this I seemed to be plagued with University deadlines. I did get some respite from the crazy, having had a cosy little catch up with the lovely Skye and Erin in Brighton – plus a little wander down the lanes :) 

This month has pretty much flown by in the blink of an eye and now I’m here on Mother’s Day, a month away from D-Day (aka Dissertation deadline day) and my final exams. This last week of March also had me sitting in my last lectures and seminar ever and all of a sudden that scary thing called graduation right around the corner. 
As much as I may be having a slight existential crisis about what I’ll be doing when graduation does roll around, I really need to set my focus on the here and now and what I need to do to get that fancy degree in my cap and gown.

That thing I need to do is step back and knuckle down. Which is why I’ll be kicking it back from the blog for a bit. I’ve already had friends call me crazy for trying to manage three blogs in my final year and I’ve done ok so far. But having that niggling feeling that I need to have a blog post set up on a certain day hanging over me the next few weeks is not something I need right now. 
So it’s not a full on goodbye from me, but a “we interrupt this broadcast whilst Ria spends her life in the library…” kinda goodbye.

I’m not on a total media blackout – cos I need some way of relaxing after doing so much work – so feel free to follow me on Twitter (@RCagz) and send me words of encouragement (or kick me up the butt if you see I’ve been on there for too long!) 

Toodles for now guys! See you on the other side ;)
