Moving Out and Leaving Leicester
Cleaned my room, packed up and said my goodbyes to my university accommodation in Leicester. Leicester has been such a lovely town to live in for the past four years and there has been so many amazing memories and moments here. From the university finding a king in a car park to the Leicester City […]
Giving Some Love Back
While I very much enjoy my course, it’s nice to be home with my family. My parents are two of my best friends, and so holidays for me are times to hang out and have fun. Since I’m no longer at home full-time, it’s become even more important for me that I make the most […]
Summer Resolutions
Exam season is over, results are in, and I’m finally buckling down to my Summer Resolutions. This has been a habit of mine for the past few years; January is right in the middle of exam preparation and the start of the back-to-uni scramble, so it’s the worst time to try and get life-changing habits […]
From Manchester to Brighton
Between the monotonous days in the lab that are quickly drawing to a close and writing up results, my girlfriend and I made some time to take a break, heading up north to her parents and down south to mine. Long walks along Tandle Hill on the outskirts of Manchester felt a far cry from […]

Christmas time and the end of term
As always, this first term has absolutely flown by and it has now come to the start if the Christmas holidays. As a fourth year I am here a little bit longer than a lot of students; it is a little lonely actually! Everyone leaves so abruptly and campus changes from really busy to just a little too quiet… […]
5th November
I don’t know about anyone else, but no other holiday seems to make me feel so much like a child again than Guy Fawkes night. There just something about the pretty colours and loud bangs of the bonfire and fireworks that makes be feel very young 🙂 This year has been the first year I […]
Post holiday catch up
Hi all! Firstly, apologies for the lack of blog, I have just got back from my rather long, but extremely enjoyable summer holiday! After all that time in the sun I am now all rested up and ready for the start of the new academic year! At the moment I am just settling back in […]
