Last Friday @ LCB depot
On Friday evening I went to ‘Last Friday’ which is an event held on the last Friday of each month at LCB depot, close to the Curve Theatre. There are street food stalls in the courtyard, as well as a bars, cocktails and music/art and as their website says ‘vibes’. It is open from 4pm […]
Not long until CHRISTMAS…
So it’s not long been bonfire night and for me that signals the start of the festive period, which is without a doubt my favourite time of year! To make it even better this year I don’t have January exams, so although I will have uni work to be keep on top of (that dissertation […]
Exploring Leicester: Bradgate Park
So you have a whole day off and want to do something other than staying in bed watching Netflix? Bradgate Park is the perfect please to spend a day outside in the countryside! First of all how to get there: Walk/Uber to St Margaret’s Bus Station and get the 120 bus at 11.13am (a return […]
SET: appreciation of one particular shop in Leicester
You’ve probably noticed the reoccurring theme that I tend to try and fit far too much into each week and am stressed most of the time! Last week, amidst the blur of deadlines, I went Christmas shopping (mostly just to convince myself that I was organised in at least one aspect of my life). Now […]
Abbey Park Fireworks

One of the […]

City of Stars: A Home Away From Home
Happy (slightly belated) 2017 everyone! I love January because it always seems like everyone is in a transition period, still recovering from finishing the previous year. I am pretty sure I will be on the same boat with everyone and still spelling the year wrong for a few weeks yet! With Refresher’s fair […]
The Countdown Begins: Get Ready for Tinsel!
We’re nearing the end of November, can you believe it? I know that I always seem to start my posts with something similar, but it genuinely continues to baffle me how quickly time seems to be flying. Relevantly, I’m aware that I’ve been treating this blog with some fun academic tidbits, so today I […]
From One City to Another: Transport
One week into the semester and I can’t believe how busy I already am! I’m not sure if I’m busier than I was this time last year – but it certainly feels that way. They do say that during your final year, you just hit the ground running and it appears to be […]
