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. […]
September Goals 2017
September brings with it the feeling of a fresh start, some kind of new chapter. After blogging about my July Goals, and quickly realising how I sucked at sticking to them, I’m back for another attempt. Let’s plunge into my goals for this month… SEPTEMBER GOALS Personal: 1) Go for a run once a week. […]
July Reflection 2017
So, how did I do with my July Goals? JULY REFLECTION Personal: 1) Go for a run 3x a week (and seriously this time). Okay, I admit it. I’m seriously bad with running and I don’t know why! I went for a total of one run the entire month. It’s so bad but I’m determined to […]
Reflection: Trinity Term & First Year | Uni Diaries
It’s been exactly a month since my first year at the University of Oxford finished. I don’t really know how to feel about it, if I’m perfectly honest. It doesn’t feel like one quarter of my degree is over; it doesn’t feel like first year is over. Trinity Term & First Year Reflection I think […]
Oxford Law Society Ball at Hedsor House | Uni Diaries
Not one to pass up the opportunity of going to a ball, I {of course} ended up balloting for the Law Society’s summer term ball.

New College Boat Party | Uni Diaries
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 […]
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 […]
Shanghai in Pictures | Travel Diaries
I’ve finally got round to importing and editing a collection of photos from my latest trip to Shanghai. We spent five days being tourists and exploring the bubbling metropolitan city. We wandered around markets and street stalls filled with small restaurants and shops selling small trinkets. There were also parks, temples and gardens: We had […]
