Looking Forward, Looking Back #6

Looking Forward


I am really excited about my upcoming move to Kingston! I'm studying for an MA at the university there and have managed to bag myself a place in a lovely little house with two other students, so it really feels like everything is coming together nicely. Quite a few difficult situations arose in the last few weeks of university and, although I am really sad to leave, it was definitely time for us all to move on. I am so looking forward to my MA and living in a new place. Also a lot of my friends are dotted around London, so it's nice to know that they are all within reachable distance.

Kingston-Upon-Thames, here I come!

It's not every day you get to have a completely fresh start in a new area with new people, so I'm looking forward to getting stuck in here and having a great time!


Looking Back


As I said, quite a few less-than-ideal things happened towards the end of my time at university, but nonetheless I left confident that I made the right decision in going there. I made some amazing friends, had some pretty crazy times and somehow managed to leave with a degree as well! It's a pretty big 'looking back', but the past three years have been jam-packed with awesome times, which I can confidently say outweighed the less awesome times. University was definitely one of the most formative and enjoyably experiences of my life so far!

A little something for Monday morning

I've never been a Monday kinda girl - I know some people love diving into a fresh new week, but alas I've always been a little more of a pessimist! So just before I set off for the library to start a long day of revision for my last ever undergrad exam, I thought I'd share a little something that helps me perk up on a Monday morning, courtesy of Bishop Allen. Enjoy!

Have a lovely Monday everyone!

My desk and I (plus a cheeky award)

Sorry I've been totally off the map recently, I'm about to begin my finals and so life has been a little manic! I've been glued to my desk (and will be for a little while yet) and so as sad as it makes me, I've had to put blogging on the back burner for a little while. Yes, I will hold my hands up and admit I totally failed at the photo a day challenge, helped least of all by the disappearance of my camera. Sorry! I cannot WAIT to get back to you all when this stress is done with though!

Most definitely not my desk (drool)

It's still great to know you guys are out there though and I had a lovely surprise when Kirsty from Teacups and Treats let me know she'd nominated me for a 'Versatile Blogger' award - my first ever award! I don't have time to do a full post on it at the moment, but Kirsty nominated some other great blogs as well if you fancy a new read. Thank you Kirsty!

Well it's time to get back to work, but I hope you're all well!
