Ways to prepare yourself for Law School!
So I’ve just finished my first year of Law School here at Leicester, and it’s definitely been a rollercoaster at some points! Studying law at degree level can be quite exciting, but also a daunting and at times a draining experience. Now while I believe law school, or any degree for the matter can’t fully […]
Brain Food
So it’s 2018, and whilst it’s now April, it’s still a fairly a new year – and possibly a new you. Needless to say, one of the most common things that people will commit to doing in a new year is becoming healthier or, in my case, staying healthy and maintaining my good eating […]
Perry v Swift: Songs to help you study
So revision in itself can be boring – that’s a given. But it doesn’t have to be stone cold silence, sitting at a desk and reading notes. Once you’ve made your way through the detailed and harder parts, it can be nice to play some background music to get those cognitive juices flowing. And […]

How to succeed in anything you do
I love podcasts, and recently, I took a break from TED talks and How I Built This and I turned my attention to the Good Life Project podcast (which, I think, is pretty self-explanatory). The episode that I listened to is entitled, ‘To Succeed at Anything, Do This’, so I was expecting some […]
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 […]
