Starting uni can be a exciting but also a bit scary and it’s totally normal to feel nervous at the start. But for some people there more to how they are feeling than just freshers butterflies. Mental health is something which a lot of students have problems with, probably due to a combination of lots […]

The last few weeks have been crazy for me and incredibly busy! It’s the 5th week of term and the work load has definitely picked up! With this, organising polo, working (the paid sort… ugh) and trying to actually have a social life as well I am always running from one place to another. Anyone […]

Exam time is upon us but as a third year, I have been given this one off! Whilst I’m sure I would have looked on these few weeks with excitement at the start of semester, I can honestly say that I am as busy as I would have been if I had been revising. Admittedly, […]

With three exams complete and just one to go, I can see the end. On Friday morning I will be sitting my final ever undergraduate exam. My exams so far have been a mixed bag- one has gone pretty well, another has gone partially well and another not so great. Having said this, I’ve definitely […]

As you can imagine, at present life isn’t the most interesting. The highlight of my day is normally packing up my work after a morning at the library and heading to the gym for a change of scenery, before heading back to the library for an afternoon session. My housemates and I wanted to give […]

After almost a week at home for Easter it’s time for me to head back to Leicester. I’d love to be able to spend more time at home, but unfortunately I don’t seem to be able to get much work done back in Nottingham. I guess this is for the following reasons: 1) The library […]

Thankfully, today is a day that only happens once every four years- February the 29th! As a final year student, the leap year came at a good time. I know that sounds ridiculous as it’s only an extra day, but I’m viewing that extra day as a head start on coursework. Now, onto March… […]

This title is written in a literal sense; I have physically been dancing towards by coursework deadlines. Well, sort of. Deadlines seem to be growing ever closer and I am spending any spare time that I have in the library. Part of my busy schedule is due to Tuesday and Thursday night’s being spent in […]

After surviving an extremely busy first week of semester two, I decided to spend my Friday evening (after a decent stint in the library) curled up in bed watching a film. Whilst everyone was out enjoying refreshers (the post-January exams version of freshers), I was in the midst of probably the most wild Friday night […]

I am writing this from the comfort of my bed, wearing four layers of clothing and wrapped in my duvet. Unfortunately for me, tonsillitis has hit again. It has come at a pretty bad time as I have an essay due on Wednesday and have spent the majority of the past 5 days sleeping/ taking […]
