The images above show the exterior of the building and a few basic shots of the inside. I have signed for the year long lease with a friend who recently graduated from the University of Leeds. We both originally come from Wigan and didn't much fancy returning there after spending three years in Leeds. Even though the links to Manchester and Liverpool are fantastic in Wigan, I knew I would have to move back in with my parents and I just couldn't face that.
After having a few 'real world' realisations, particularly in the last year, I knew it would not be an option for me to return home. I would fall back into the routine I was in before I left. I would allow my parents to take control of life again, and I wouldn't be living it the way I wanted.
Living in Leeds, for the minimum of a year, will allow me to explore what I want to do in the 'real world'. Admittedly I am incredibly naive, having been in education since a very young age. I thought three years for a degree would be easy, at one point I was even considering a year long masters specialising in a specific design field. I now know this was a pipe dream, something I was considering to postpone living in the real world for another year. Well, I bit the bullet. I will be in Yorkshire for the next year, I best get my shit together if I'm going to make anything of myself.
