Avoiding Scurvy
I have some big news for you. Today, something very exciting happened. Today, I LEFT THE HOUSE. Now, I know for most people, this won’t be a big deal. To me, however, when I’ve been cooped up since Friday, only leaving twice to go to the corner shop and buy emergency chocolate supplies, it was …
Revision
So, as predicted, my life at the moment consists of: 8am – Wake up. 8:05 – Convince myself to get out of bed. Go to the loo, get dressed. 8:15 – Eat breakfast whilst scrolling through Facebook, emails, blogs etc. 8:30 – Tell myself that I really should be getting started with work right about …
Time Flies
Wow, I can’t believe how long it’s been since I’ve posted! I feel terrible about it, but time just seems to be flying past way too quickly at the moment. I’ve been back at uni for four weeks! It feels like I’ve been back for one! I had my last lecture of second year today, …
Shhh…
Shhh… Don’t say it too loudly… But, I think Summer has arrived!!! Somehow we seem to have skipped right past Spring and landed smack in the middle of summer. It is SO nice to feel the sun on your skin, especially after thinking that Winter was never going to end. I remember last year it …
Unprepared
As exams loom closer and closer, I’m getting more and more aware of the fact that I’ll have less time to do fun things in the build up to them. This is why I decided to make the most of not having to feel too guilty about having fun and went out last night. I …
Minion Cake
As I mentioned in my last post, it was my friend’s 21st birthday a few days ago and my other friend and I decided to make him a cake. But not just any cake. Oh, no. We decided to make him a minion cake. If you’ve not come across minions before, they are basically the …
Birthdays, Friends and Sun
What’s this? Two blog posts so close together? This hasn’t happened in a long time, I know! It must be because I’m back at university now after my five week Easter holiday and I’m meant to be doing revision. So naturally, I’ve been spending as much time as possible coming up with excuses not to …
Yarn Bag Ta Dah!
I realised I said a little while ago that I should have a Ta Dah post coming up soon and then actually forgot to do it! This whole project has been a bit delayed really, as it was actually meant as a Christmas present for Heather but I only got around to making it at …
I Know, I Know…
I know, I know, I’ve been absolutely rubbish at posting regularly recently, but things have just been getting in the way! Heather and Tiny Tin Bird came to stay for just over a week and went home on Thursday, so lots of that time was taken up by showing him the garden, taking him for …
Cluck Cluck
Oh, what’s this? It couldn’t be a chicken coop? For keeping chickens in? More specifically for keeping the chickens Kelly, Claire and Marie in? That’s right! My friends Elena and Danny from the canoe club just got chickens!!! How exciting is that?! And do you know what having friends with chickens means? It means …
