A PR is someone who takes care of the public relations side of the business and deals with bookings, event nights, etc. I also run the Facebook and Twitter page.
I'm quite excited about this job because the staff is so nice there! And it's something different compared to my Tower job in London because this staff is 100% Scottish! They are all from here or somewhere in Scotland! However at the Tower there were itialins, romanians, Polish, etc. And not that it wasn't good to work with them, but it wasn't always great because they didn't speak English very good. However now I will get to work with people who are actually from this city!
Working full time for awhile will be nice aswell, and I get to learn how to be a PR and will get to add that to my resume when I move home so that's a plus!
I found a place to live yesterday! I moved in last night and it's a pretty good place! I have 3 roommates. 2 guys and a girl. The girls name is Astrid, she's 21 and a student here. She's from Romania originally but has been in the UK for 4 years now and speaks great English! Her boyfriend lives here too, he is from Spain but also speaks good English! And the last guy is from Poland, he's a student aswell.
When I found out they were all different nationalities I was a little skeptic but only because I have come from living in hostels for 3 months where rarely people were speaking English. And they were constantly speaking their own language. Not that I had anything against it, but we are in an English speaking country and if your intending on living here respect it's language and at least attempt to learn it. You can't live in a country and not learn its language in my opinion.
So I was so excited when I got here and realized that even though they are all other nationalities, none of them are from the same place so they can't speak their language to one another. So since they have been in Scotland they have had to speak English the entire time, resulting in them having great English.
My room is massive, it's beyond words to be able to unpack my suitcase! I was living out of it for almost 3 months! I also have my own bed which isn't part of a bunk bed which is amazing! As well as a desk! Everything in my room is perfect.
We have a fair sized living room and dining room. The kitchen is so tiny, but it has everything you need. We have a mini fridge which with 4 of us living here there isn't a lot of room, but we have a huge freezer. And I don't mind grocery shopping a few times a week, instead of one big trip.
Straight ahead is the washing machine. Weird I know, it's in the kitchen. They have that a lot here. And beside the washing machine to the left is the fridge. And the freezer is also in the picture ahead to the right, with the microwave ontop.
Tiny little kitchen! Just look at the floor to fully grasp how small it is! The stove is to the right
