The first post of 2018 – and I can’t believe it’s taken me this long to write! Here’s a lil life update for all of you… If we were having coffee, I would tell you that my exams start in five weeks’ time. And that terrifies me. It was only this morning that it really hit […]
twenty-seventeen in review + lessons learned
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. […]
If We Were Having Coffee… | Vol. 32
If we were having coffee, I would tell you that I’m back in Oxford and it’s the start of 3rd week already. Where is the time going?! I’m absolutely loving being back and my room this year is b-e-a-u-t-i-f-u-l so I’m trying to make the most of it. There will be a room tour up on YouTube […]
I’M BACK – If We Were Having Coffee… | Vol. 26
If we were having coffee, I would tell you that I have just launched my new blog! Have you noticed that I’ve now got rid of the wordpress.com at the end of my URL?! Not only have I purchased my own domain (hellooooo www.apieceofviola.com), but I’ve also gone self-hosted so keep your eyes peeled for some exciting […]
If We Were Having Coffee… | Vol. 25
If we were having coffee, I would tell you that I can’t believe it’s been almost an entire month since I last wrote one of these! Where has the time gone/why haven’t I written one sooner to give you guys an update?! If we were having coffee, I would tell you that I’ve been back at university for […]
If We Were Having Coffee… | Vol. 23
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 […]
Reflection: Hilary Term | Uni Diaries
If you haven’t read my reflection on my first term at university then head over here first before you continue reading. Hilary term (the fancy name given to second term at Oxford) flew by; it was gone almost in the blink of an eye. And that scares me. This past term has been both good and bad […]
Oxford Law Society Ball | Uni Diaries
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 […]
Afternoon Tea with Browns
Picture this: you’re a student {and a broke student at that}. You’re completely and utterly stressed out. You just want to chill out and drink tea. And cake. You definitely want to eat cake. Got that image in your head? Right… well this was me a couple of weeks ago. I was seriously ready for the […]
If We Were Having Coffee… | Vol. 22
If we were having coffee, I would tell you that this term ends next Saturday. Next Saturday?!  It’s insane how fast this term has gone but, at the same time, I’ve actually done so much and barely remember the first few weeks (they seriously feel like they were months ago). I have an incredibly busy week lined up: Law […]
