I love podcasts. I listen to them on coach rides, on my walk to town, while I’m getting ready in the morning, while I’m cooking…just any time I have to myself, really. These podcasts are all free to subscribe and listen to, so you really cannot go wrong with them! They’re funny, they’re informative, […]
A non-drinker in a drinking world
Before I came to England, I knew the drinking culture was going to be a big thing. When I actually got to England, I realised drinking culture was a big thing. I was shocked at how much people were drinking, and I thought to myself, ‘well, they say if you can’t beat ’em, join ’em’… and […]
Things I like to do in Leicester
As a student, it’s extremely important to plan to relax and spend time with people. It’s easy to isolate yourself so you can get things done, and as productive as that may be academically, that doesn’t do well for your personal wellbeing. So, here are some things I like to do to relax! […]
Uni is what you make of it
Recently, I was working an Open Day as a Law School Student Ambassador and a parent asked me what kinds of networking opportunities there are available for law students. I rattled off my usual list: Law Society competitions and moot winners receive work experiences or offers to shadow lawyers/judges, barristers and solicitors come in […]
Law Ball: A magical night
So, every year, the biggest night to look forward to is the Law Ball – it’s the biggest social event of the year for both law students and law academics alike. Each year is a different theme, which is purely for the entertainment and decor (no fancy dress allowed!). In my first year, it […]

Friendships at university
University is a strange time because we live in such a bubble. It’s a strange isolation from the real world that will never be replicated at any other time in your life. Time seems to go at a different speed to the rest of the world – slow and quick all at the same […]
Leicester Hot Spot: Madison’s
So, last time I did a ‘Hot Spot’, I wrote about another coffee shop. I’ve realised that a lot of my time is spent in coffee shops, and I’m this close to doing a research-based Master’s to discover what about coffee shops is so appealing on every level for me. But anyway, today’s spotlight […]
Here’s why I love the uni gym
I cannot get enough of the Danielle Brown Sports Centre here on campus!! Especially during revision period – it’s one of the few things that keep me sane. I like to schedule my revision around gym classes, so that I have no excuse to be lazy and not go. There are so many […]
What’s stopping me from pursuing what I want to do?
This is a question that weighs me down, and has for a while. If you’ve been following my blogs, you’ll know that I’ve written many a blog post on my career path in trying to figure out what it is what I want to do. Over the summer, I’ve had chats with a few […]
