♪♫ Marco Polo – China Lane ♪♬ I’ve neglected this blog and my little space on the internet ever since second year started. And it’s not just because the workload has more than doubled.

RAG Garden Party | Uni Diaries
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.

For some frequent readers of my blog, it’s probably quite strange that it’s taken me this long to write a sole post about Bali. You see, I had a love-hate relationship with Bali and I’ve thought about writing a post before now but I just had other things I wanted to write about more. But I’m … Continue reading
12 Ways to De-Stress
In the past couple of weeks, saying I’m a little bit stressed out would definitely be an understatement. I’ve been rushing around like a headless chicken trying to buy and prepare the things I’ll need to take to university, organise my blog and my YouTube channel, socialise and catch up with friends, do my university prep … Continue reading
