1. If you have the possibility - go and grab the new edition of UMMM.. magazine, Medway campus' student mag (and obviously read my article about international students).
2. Live streamed birth? No thank you! Keep your beef-bush to yourself young lady! If I want to induce nightmares by watching things being born in a monstrous way - I'll rent Alien. Read The Telegraph's Lucy Jones' exchellente columnon the matter here
3. Head of an All Girls School and president of the Girls' Schools Association (GSA) Jill Berry is speaking out in The Independent trying to calm all young women down stating that we shouldn't expect to "have-it-all" because it probably wont happen. Quoting the article "Mrs Berry said that girls should "stop beating themselves up" if they cannot juggle a career with being a wife and mother at the same time.". First of all: Sod off. You are a role model for young girls and you need to tell them that they can achieve whatever they set their minds to. "There is a special place in hell for women who do not help other women" - Madeleine K. Albright (I have quoted her before and I will happily do it again).
And secondly: In that case, what is the defenition of "having it all"? Does having a career and working hard by default mean that you are doing it to get "a flash sports car with a baby seat in the back". It seems like people who are commenting on the "having-it-all"-syndrome think that career bitches also juggling motherhood does it all for the money.
I am going to be a journalist career bitch - what money?
