A White Christmas (kinda)
December 29, 2014
It’s been two weeks since Christmas holidays have started but I have only spent 3 days in Nottingham. What have I been up to you might ask? Well for starters the Sunday after term ended I headed down to London just as an escape from Nottingham. As much as I love this little city I …
The C Word
November 4, 2013
No I don’t mean cancer, I mean the C-Word that university students dread hearing: COURSEWORK As you may have realized I missed a blogging slot last week. Sorry about that, this was due to said coursework. I had to do a workbook on Gastro-Intestinal and Liver Diseases with 11 questions, with each answer being about …

Hello readers! I am currently writing to you all the way from Edinburgh. Yeap, I’m currently on my 2 week holiday before the start of my 4th year. This week has been a rigorous week for all 3rd year medical students as we faced our final examination of the year. It began on Monday with …
Feeling good

April 4, 2012
Hello people! Have you looked outside your window? Yeap, I know. I thought it was spring 😛 It began very early in the morning and got progressively worse. It hasn’t stopped since. I tried to upload a short video clip but unfortunately, it didn’t work. Oh well, I guess pictures will do.. Apparently, we’re …
Here Comes the Sun
March 16, 2012
The plan for the week was to recover from Spring Break but my American University workload has decided otherwise. Straight off the back of our drive back up the east coast through the night I really did have to hit the ground running. I have also become aware of how fast time is flying and …
Six Degrees
February 26, 2012
Last weekend saw me attend my first college basketball game that in typical American fashion was on a mammoth scale. A full house in the John Paul Jones Arena was entertained by cheerleaders, dance troupes, a full marching band, a military led national anthem and an amusing mascot named ‘Cav-man’ and this was all before the …
