Obsessing over: My new job! A month after getting it my shifts finally start this week. I’m excited to get started, to be earning money at long last, and to get into a good routine before uni starts!
Working on: Emailing my international students back. I volunteered to be a buddy for international students coming to Leicester, and have had replies from 3 out of 5 of them. I’m excited to meet people from different backgrounds and hopefully I can help them settle into Leicester by showing them what it has to offer as well as some fun customs like Bonfire Night and Diwali!
Thinking about: Recipe ideas for the week. It’s taking some getting used to cooking for myself again, so I need to compile a list of recipes that are quick, easy, and use fairly cheap ingredients. Sometimes making things like a booklet of recipes or a two week meal plan can help take it off your mind and leave more time to plan essays and work. I’ll be posting recipes on here as the semester goes by!
Anticipating: My first shifts; I’ve been waiting for so long to start them and I’m nervous about what to expect! Also, everyone is trickling back to Leicester ready for the new term so I’m looking forward to seeing people I haven’t seen for a year!
Drinking: Tea, as usual! Student houses tend to be about 10 degrees colder than the average house so tea will be what keeps me going basically for the next 6 months whilst we brave the cold without heating.
