when life gives you lemons, make lemonade

GUESS WHAT! I finished my last assignment, (a 2 minute podcast on Social Media) which can only mean one thing- I'M FREEEEE! I don't think it has quite sunk it yet that all of my hard work (okay, admittedly, I slacked a bit at first.. A lot at first) and time has lead me to finish my first year at University and I can only hope and pray it pays off as I've really pulled my socks up towards the end of this year! With deadlines out of the way, it gave me some time to reflect on my time at Robert Tressell Halls with the end of first year fast approaching. It still feels weird to say that. In some ways I feel like I literally got here yesterday but there will be days where I can't stand the place and feel like I've been here all my life and just wish to go home. I'd never trade any of it for the world though, when I really think about it. I've had plenty of ups and downs here but it's been the best experience, I was always so unsure about coming to Uni but ...

Hey guys, sorry it's kind of been a while since I last blogged. There's been so many things I have wanted to say but there's always that fear of saying something and it not coming across to readers as you'd like and simply not knowing exactly how to portray your thoughts and feelings in a way that people will understand.

At the start of this year, I was genuinely so happy. Obviously I was at Uni and stuff and after the Christmas holidays I had realised a lot. I was in a really good place. I had this guy, (for the purpose of this post I will name him 'Mr Undecided'), who seemed to be besotted in...

Hey guys, it's been a while, hasn't it? I've been a little busy with not having much of a life and all due to the realization that assignments are fast approaching. So, naturally, instead of working on said assignments, I'm here, procrastinating.  The other evening during pre-drinks, my friends and I came up with a renewed version of the classic drinking game, Ring of Fire , with the use of Mean Girls. It's totally fetch. ACE - "The limit does not exist!"  : Waterfall. 2  - "AND NONE FOR GRETCHEN WEINERS, BYE!"  : Must not drink until your next turn. 3 - "Like ughhh, Kevin 3!"  : Hip thrust master, whenever you start hip thrusting everyone must join in. The last person to do so has to drink. 4 - "4 for you Glen Coco! You go Glen Coco!"  : Have 4 sips of your drink. 5 - "I was half a virgin when I met him!"  : Drink half of your drink with no excuses! 6 - "Don’t have SIX, because you will ge...
