Firstly I apologise for that god awful Justin Bieber - Sorry reference, but on top of that I apologise so much for being so absent lately. Last I spoke on here, I was house hunting, I'm happy to say that I have now found the perfect rental for me & my family to grow into. On top of moving, I started a job in the same week & in September I also returned back to education, stress isn't even the word! I was planning on going on a hiatus due to being so busy, but I really can't stay away. So I may be quiet every now and again but I promise I will make it up to all you lovely people.

So yes, I'm happy in my new home, working my little butt off as a waitress in a cute little american nostalgia cafe to pay myself through college and to afford to live basically, more stress YAY! Most important news is that I am finally working towards the career I have wanted since I was a very little girl, I am studying Animal Management, training up on how to treat animals for any diseases and keeping welfare standards up and basically just enjoying life surrounded by animals more than humans. Perfection. I have worked with reptiles and amphibians, I bloody loved that and have now moved on to hooved mammals, so enjoying getting into mischief with some gorgeous donkeys, I want one. In the past few months I have also finally had a breakthrough with my mental health, I was misdiagnosed 9 years ago with depression & anxiety, turns out I have BPD. This has made me feel very indifferent, I'm glad because we have finally gotten to the bottom of it. At the same time, I've felt like I have lost myself a little through not knowing myself, not knowing how I really feel. I am trying some self help & I really do have a good support network around me, especially with friends in similar positions. I'm also on the waiting list for DBT, unfortunately I have to wait around three years for that.

My little family has grown with the addition of my two fur-less babies, a birthday present to myself, I got two beautiful corn snakes. A beautiful albino male, called Quartz & a stunning lavamel female, called Amber. Of course we have my lovely male boxer/husky Tuco, and my two little kitties Paddy & Ana. (Send me pictures of your animals, will always put a smile on my face) I am also still with my lovely partner, Jackson, who despite being a pain in my backside at times has been my rock through all of the stress I have been against. My beautiful daughter of course is coming up to six years old, scary stuff and she has become such a lovely bright little girl, but maybe I could be a little bit biased on that topic. Before starting college the three of us, my partner, my daughter & myself went to Northern Ireland, we went on a little DIY game of thrones tour where we went to all of the cool locations that GOT has been filmed, visited the amazing Giants Causeway and the Titanic museum. I had a fantastic time and recommend ever part of the trip we made.

I plan on getting some shoots booked in, I've agreed with myself that I will only be focusing on SG with my modelling whilst I am studying. I have a plan to do a 1950's style pin-up shoot at the cafe I work in & I also have a few ideas that need tweaking. I hope that you lovely people reading this understand that I may not be posting a lot & it might take awhile for sets to come out but I am here! If you don't follow me on Instagram, get on it as that is the social media platform I use the most.

With love Neko Josei x
