Well, the past months of university, and life in general, have been ridiculously busy. I guess this is what being an actual proper grown up feels like (turning 22 in November has definitely reminded me I’m getting older now)! Third year has been a whirlwind of reading, essays, editing, going to gigs, reviewing, socialising, and …read more

I just wanted to let you know if you have anything you’d like to ask me, whether it’s related to Portsmouth or my course, or anything really, please feel free to drop a comment in the box below and I’ll get back to you ASAP!
The next Shakespeare? I doubt it.
But on the plus side, I feel pretty positive about my writing in general at the minute. Sometimes I feel a little bad about neglecting this blog, so I apologise to anybody who reads it as it may, from time to time, be lacking in new content. This Easter I have slightly felt as though …read more
Well I guess this is growing up.
Today I got the Megabus back home to Oxford from Portsmouth and, after a delicious cappuccino and bacon sandwich in this little cafe near the harbour, the journey back wasn’t too bad. I managed to do a lot of reading which is always handy and my iPod was dishing out a lot of musical treats …read more
I’ve finally stopped being lazy!
By Kathryn on February 9, 2012 in Clubs and societies, Course, Free time, Nightlife, The Galleon, Travels
So we are well and truly back in the swing of things in semester 2, and I’m now officially more than half way through my degree. It’s pretty scary stuff. I got all my results back from my essays and exam in January and I passed everything (thankfully!) I know I really need to buckle …read more
The never-ending list of things to do.
Sorry I haven’t written in a while, but it’s been a pretty hectic few weeks! In the last week I have gone back to uni and I have to say I love the units I’m doing this semester already. I had a seminar for one titled “Publics and Privates: Literary Sexualities, 1700-1830″ and, as hilarious …read more
The Galleon!
Pugwash News is changing its name to The Galleon and I have to say, I like it! It’s about time the newspaper had a more professional name and was taken a bit more seriously as it’s a seriously good read and a lot of work goes in to it. I really think more people should …read more
Freshers’ Fayre
I know it was a while ago now, but we had such a brilliant time at Freshers’ Fayre and I already can’t wait for next year. It was so much fun recruiting new members and getting a chance to hang out with each other. If you click “read more” you can see the photo of …read more
UPSU Rock Society!
Sooooo, it’s getting to the end of the first semester and the Rock Society have been busy! Since the Freshers’ Fayre we’ve had a lot of socials including a Cops and Robbers night and a “white t-shirt” pub crawl and, generally, everything’s been going well. It’s great to have common interest societies within the Union, …read more
As summer came to an end
As summer came to an end and I cycled into university on my shiny new bike that I bought as soon as I got back to Portsmouth (after living in the Langstone Student Village for a year, I longed not to rely on buses anymore), I remembered why I fell in love with this city …read more
