Hometown Holidays 1.0
Before coming to university, I never thought I would build such close relationships with my friends/housemates, however, over the past two years, our group of friends have travelled to and stayed in each others hometowns – Devon, Doncaster and London. I had not been able to blog our first two trips, however over our […]
Friends Across the Pond
This morning, I had to say “see you soon” (not goodbye!) to one of my closest university friends – Caitlin. She will be studying at the University of Florida for the next year during her year abroad, whilst I complete my degree here in Leicester. Caitlin is a friend I made on the first […]
We’ll dance around la Sagrada Familia
Nearly two weeks ago, I landed in Barcelona with two of my best friends from university – Bryony and Holly. We had been dreaming of and planning this trip for about a year, with the inspiration coming from one of our favourite childhood films, Cheetah Girls 2 (cheesy, we know). I had never been […]
Varsity 2019
As some of you may know, Varsity is a big part of any university, and our Varsity competition is always against De Montfort University. This year, I had a few friends who were taking part in the Ultimate Frisbee Varsity, so a load of us went along to watch and support them, and I […]
Charlotte Squared
Over the Christmas period, one of my best friends (who is also called Charlotte!) and I planned for her to come and visit me in Leicester. Both her, and my other best friend from home, Dougie, came to stay with me last year as well, but I thought this would be a fab opportunity […]
2018. WOW.
As 2018 draws to a close, I wanted to take some time to reflect on what I would label one of the best years of my life. This past year has really confirmed to me that I made the best decision that I could have done in deciding to come to the University of Leicester […]
Student House Christmas!
Hello everyone! As my first vlog upload has fallen within the run up to Christmas, I thought I would show you all how my housemates and I have stayed festive whilst still meeting deadlines for university. One of my best friends Bryony had a Winter Wonderland-themed birthday party, so we went all-out and […]
The best shows to watch to unwind from uni
If you’re anything like my friends and I you’ll spend most of your evenings chilling watching TV or Netflix. When I’m not watching a channel 4 show with the girls in the living room, I’ll be watching the latest crime drama with my boyfriend (we love a Silent Witness to get hooked on). I’ve put […]
How I unwind and relax amidst the pressures of uni
There are times when the uni bubble can feel like too much; you feel under a lot of stress and pressure and like you’re working yourself into a rut. You can sometimes feel this way whether you have numerous deadlines looming or a relatively relaxed work schedule at the time, it’s just part and parcel […]
