Christmas went by very fast and now seems so far gone! Work has mounted on me this term and to be honest I’m not very pleased with my results. So far I have passed but not with flying colours, think it’s time to change that! I guess it’s true what they say; First Year is a …read more
What a Semester?!
I apoligise for not writing much this term but it has been a crazy period for me. Living in this student house has highlighted several problems. I am extremely far out from uni which makes it difficult and an effort to get in. The buses arent reliable so I guess Im getting fitter that way …read more
Second Year!
Well, I love Pompey but I am a bit disappointed with the number of uni buses provided. Once every 20 minutes isnt really enough for us lot far out of the city centre. Living near to Fratton Park has highlighted it’s difficulties as well as its strengths. For example, I feel there are not enough buses …read more
Back in Pompey …
Second Year is here, I have just moved into my house (yesterday) and its been interesting. We have learnt alot in a small space of time. For me, I did it all on my own, I packed all my stuff over August, trying to decrease the amount of stress that comes with moving. I recommend …read more
Time …
Liquid Sunshine just isnt cutting it for me, I mean its Summer for goodness sake! However this nice long break is really chilling me out.

It’s the Little things …
I find it amazing how people can come and go in our lifetimes. Ive noticed it more at uni because of the distance and the new friends you make. During my gap year I had a great small group of friends who I could always count on, but things changed and we lost contact. But nothing …read more
All Together…
Easter Break was amazing, I got to spend a week abroad with my parents and spend 2 weeks with my bestest friends. Coming back to uni was a bit of a challenge and a shock once I arrived. I find it difficult to settle at uni, then go home for 3 weeks and vise versa. But …read more
A Look Back …
Portsmouth is a beautiful city, especially when the sun is shining. The best place to be on those sunny days is Southsea common or the sea front. I went there today with my flat mate, Sian and we spoke about the last six months. Its interesting to see how much we have changed as people …read more
