Right. Here it is: the post you’ve all been waiting for. It’s currently 2:25am on the final day of 2017, and I am ready to be brutally honest with every single one of you who’s taking the time to read this post right now – thank you, by the way, it really does mean a lot. … Continue reading
A couple of weeks ago, New College had its annual Boat Party on the River Thames. This year’s theme was Casino, with the dress code being, ‘Black with a hint of red‘. This was the first black-tie event of term in my calendar and we were all looking forward to dressing up and escaping leaving Oxford for … Continue reading
Two weeks ago, in the gorgeous twenty four degrees heat, Oxford’s RAG (Raise and Give) hosted a Garden Party in Oxford’s very own University Parks. The afternoon promised to be filled with afternoon tea, croquet, live music and cocktails. The best part was that it was all in the name of charity – what more … Continue reading
If we were having coffee, I would tell you that I’ve now been on holiday for two entire weeks. It’s actually quite crazy how fast it’s going. Did you read my Hilary Term reflection post? Have I done nearly as much work as I should have done? No way in hell. I have three full days free before … Continue reading
The Oxford Law Society put on a ball termly at some of the most beautiful locations over the country. Not one to miss a ball (I went to two last term), when I heard that this term’s one would be at The Roman Baths, I just had to ballot. We were incredibly lucky and were … Continue reading
If we were having coffee, I would tell you that I moved back to university! Today marks the end of First Week and it’s been a hectic past week. I didn’t start the term of that great because I was running on very little sleep and had way too many translations to get done (The Aeneid literally takes me hours! *cries*), … Continue reading

I prefer to use this term rather than ‘Resolutions’ simply because I know that I will never stick to resolutions. Goals are more definable: goals are things that you can work towards, achieve … Continue reading
I cannot believe an entire year has passed yet again -where is the time going?! Cue all of the “2016 in Review” blog posts and “2017 New Year Resolutions” as everyone begins to settle down and reflect on the past year. And I’m just about to jump on the bandwagon I’m afraid… Twenty Sixteen. Aside … Continue reading
After spending Christmas on Bondi Beach in sunny Australia last year, I was looking forward to being back home with my family this Christmas. I wasn’t most excited for the amount of presents under the tree or what everyone had bought me; I was most excited to spend time with my family. Christmas Day wasn’t “the … Continue reading
I’m writing this while I’m still in bed, still in my pyjamas and still bedridden. Yes, I’m bedridden. If you haven’t been following my Instagram or Snapchat accounts then you won’t know that I’ve just come back from a five-day entirely spontaneous trip to Kraków, Poland. It was absolutely incredible and I loved visiting such a beautiful … Continue reading
