If we were having coffee, I would tell you that I’m currently on a train to London with Jack bound for Luton Airport*.We’re off to Vilnius in Lithuania, followed by Riga in Latvia. It was a pretty spontaneous booking and neither of us have been to either country.That’s another two I can tick off 😉 I’ll […]
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 […]
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 […]
A Week in the Life of an Oxford Student | Uni Diaries
Most of the time, when people hear that I study at Oxford, the main thing they ask me is what my work is like and how my week looks. I weekly vlog over on my YouTube channel which gives a general idea of what my weeks look like but I thought I’d put it into […]
If We Were Having Coffee… | Vol. 18
If we were having coffee, I would tell you that I’m currently in Kraków – crazy, huh?! I wanted to go abroad somewhere; I wanted to explore a new place and so when my uni friends told me to meet them in Kraków, when my mum told me to “just go” and when my good […]
If We Were Having Coffee… | Vol. 17
If we were having coffee, I would tell you that time has flown so, so, so fast and I can’t believe that term ends NEXT SATURDAY?! It’s absolutely insane and something I can’t get my head around. So many things have happened and so many things have changed since Freshers’ Week but it’s still incredibly strange to think […]
Oxford Balls: Union Ball and RAG Ball | Uni Diaries
One of the perks of being a student at Oxford University is that you get the opportunity to attend really lavish balls (I’m taking charity balls, society balls, white tie, black tie…) and I’m here today to tell you about the two different balls I’ve been to this term. Northern Lights Ball at The Oxford […]
Fifth Week Blues | Uni Diaries
So there’s this thing at Oxford… Fifth Week Blues is notorious, both at Oxford and at Cambridge, but what exactly is it? If you didn’t know already, the University of Oxford has only eight-week terms which means that, in effect, I’m actually only at university for twenty-four weeks of the year(!). This differs significantly from […]
If We Were Having Coffee… | Vol. 15
If we were having coffee, I would tell you that Oxford really does throw you into the deep end with work. The transition between freshers’ week and term starting was non-existent. Freshers’ at our college started on Tuesday 4th and by Saturday 9th people were already in the library getting work done (yes, Oxford gave us […]
