Lei, You’ve Taught Me A Lot
My time at Leicester has genuinely been the best of my life so far. As cringey as that sounds, it’s true. So, here is a lengthy account of some of the greatest things I’ve learned from my time at Leicester: 1. Follow your gut. It’s usually right. Something I’ve come to […]
The Best is Yet to Come
Here is my official graduation blog post! Instead of explaining the day, I thought I’d let you see it for yourself! Spoiler: the 14th July was absolutely perfect. Click here for my vlog of graduation day: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r_Aa3BxY63U&feature=youtu.be Plus, my editing skills are slightly improving, you’ll be pleased to know. Enjoy! […]
Making Difficult Career Decisions
Apparently, I’m a massive nerd. I don’t just love watching TED Talks, I love making notes on them. Even re-watching them to do so. All because I believe these theories can have life-changing consequences if we listen and apply them. The one I watched today was about how to approach making difficult decisions. […]
I left Leicester
Yesterday I moved out of Leicester for good. It was a surreal day – one that I thought would take forever to come around, but it was over so quickly. Too quickly. I can remember getting out of the car in Beaumont Hall in Oadby on my very first day. September […]
Venture into the Unknown
University has the wonderful perk of giving you three months off at the end of each year. And whilst this seems like a blessing at the time, it can feel excruciatingly long towards the end. For me, right now, my work training starts on the 16th July, so I’m trying to cram as much […]
Let’s Disko: Sausage Rolls, Angels, and Three Years of Memories
One constant in my life at Leicester for the past three years has been the uni club (the O2)’s night out on a Wednesday called Let’s Disko. I ended up going pretty much every single week for three years – now that’s commitment! It’s the cheesy pop hits night, which is so my thing. […]
Freedom!
It’s been a wonderful week after exams trying to catch up with everyone I’ve neglected during revision. This has included lots of pub sessions, a games night and shopping trips! But then Lucie and I headed to Amsterdam for a few days to set off on our art tour. We explored the […]
Time’s Up
And in what felt like no time at all, it’s all over. This week I finished my Law degree, and it’s been a weird one. On Sunday it was my 21st birthday, and whilst I thought that it would be horrendous, because it was followed by two consecutive days of exams, the […]
To all Creators: You are a Masterpiece
Thursday 11th May – otherwise known as ‘JOHN MAYER DAAAAAAAAAY!!!!!’ to me and Lucie. It has been months since we’d booked the tickets to see her favourite artist, and the excitement was UNREAL. Lucie cried hysterically when we saw an underground tube sign that welcomed the John Mayer fans and wrote sentences by including the […]
You’re you, not them
One thing I advocate a lot is the fact that we should not compare ourselves to others. This is a particularly pertinent issue during exam time when everyone is working towards the same deadlines. If there’s anything I’ve learned it’s that every person is different. Me, personally? I hate working during the day. […]
