Why I’m Looking Forward to Christmas at Home
December 11, 2015
It is officially the season to be jolly. Christmas trees are being erected, the market is in full slow, shoppers are still manically rampaging through Black Friday’s leftovers in an effort to scrape together their Christmas shopping. Us restless students have finally handed in our Decemeber deadlines and are free of Hallward and George Green, …
My Favourite Coffee Shops in Nottingham ☕️
November 23, 2015
Like most university students I have a wonderful relationship..with coffee. Coffee may just be my one true love that comes in many forms, but my top three has got to be the flat white, espresso macchiato or a latte (usually my go-to when a flat white isn’t available). Lately I have been cafe-hopping quite a lot in …
A Fantastic Summer Weekend in Nottingham
July 21, 2015
To anyone who’s ever said there isn’t anything to do in Nottingham I’m sorry but I am going to have to prove you wrong. Having been in Nottingham for almost 3 years now, I was amazed that I was still able to find somewhere new to explore. And if you know me, you know that …
Graduation!
July 8, 2015
Yesterday I graduated from the University of Nottingham, so my undergraduate journey has officially ended! It feels really strange to say that. Fortunately, I’m sticking around in Nottingham until September to earn a bit of money, so I have a while until I’ll start getting all emotional about leaving! Here’s how my graduation day unfolded. …
Post-exam adventures
June 15, 2015
Almost 2 weeks ago I stepped out of my last ever exam at the University, which was a really weird (but relieving) feeling! Since then, I’ve actually been very busy doing things which aren’t revision. This has included: Post-exam celebratory lunch and a pint: After my final exam I wanted to celebrate and went for …
Hello from Cornwall!
April 10, 2015
This last week I have been in Cornwall, in order to have a bit of a break before revision for summer exams seriously gets underway (sigh). To deserve the time off, I mainly spent the first week of the holidays finishing off and editing the first complete draft of my dissertation. As that’s not very interesting, …
We Meat Once Again
March 30, 2015
So this past Friday my parents flew in to the UK to visit my sister and I over Easter break. Needless to say I am now being spoiled rotten. My mom has not stopped cooking since she got here and my sister and I haven’t stopped eating. The deliciousness included Malaysian chicken curry and Bak …

February 13, 2015
Since Valentine’s Day is coming up, I thought I would show some love for Nottingham. Being me, I decided to tell you about what I think are the best places to eat in Nottingham. This could have easily been a long list, but I thought I would keep it simple and share 5 of my favourites! 1. Le …
Fifty Shades of Nottingham
February 12, 2015
When a man is tired of Nottingham, he is tired of life, so the oft-cited quotation runs (well, almost). This weekend is Valentine’s Day and if your current plans include curling up on the sofa with your buds Ben and Jerry and Bridget Jones (no judgement here- standard Saturday night), why not make Nottingham your …
Failed Attempts at Being Healthy
February 4, 2015
Now it’s February, I’m sure most New Year’s resolutions have gone out of the window. If yours are still going strong then congrats – you’re better than most! I made one New Year’s resolution that’s pretty much a whole life resolution: be healthy. How many of you said the same thing? Everyone?! Not very original, …
