Today the blogging team (we) had quite an interesting meeting in cafe Coco right outside the Students’ Union. On a side note, that was the first time I’d been to cafe Coco. It was quite nice and unfortunately very busy at the time, as we four had to sit around a table for two! Blake …read more
Another hobby among heaps of coursework
Hello to all of the regular readers! This week I will present a sneak-peak of one of my hobbies. During my study break I wrote a review of a certain set of headphones that I have owned for more than 8 years! Here’s the review on head-fi.org: Panasonic RP-HT21: The supra-aural bang-for-the-buck miracle
Action is about to start
While I realize that stating the obvious is not very useful, manners dictate that I should acknowledge the absence of posts on my blog. The truth is that I was very occupied with enjoying my time at home and ignoring the future exam period. Sometimes a person might feel like a battery that has been …read more
Table football in Rees!
Not long ago table football was introduced in Rees hall. It is quite amazing how a game can bring so many people to play together. I’ve had plenty of fun with that table and if anyone else in Rees or Burrell feels like playing, they should head and enjoy it while it lasts

Its very difficult for me to focus during exam time and my mind keeps straying from the path of revision. Last week I finished reading a whole …read more

Starting with a holiday!
One could just love Portsmouth during December, especially if one is from a snowy country. The total lack of snow on the southern coast of the United Kingdom will please anybody with bad experience from snow. Of course, I cannot deny its beauty. Even more so, when I’m home and I’m enjoying the company of …read more
Experiencing Portsmouth
Portsmouth can be lots of things for a new student. I’ll tell you exactly what it is to me: my city, with my university in it, with my friends beside me. Truth be told, it can be whatever you make of it, but not quite. You need to have the resource and you’ve got plenty …read more
