Falifornia Adventures #1

The Lizard, MW 2017
So, I've been officially back in Fal for a week now and it's been a complete week of adventures, literally so much has happened this week that has helped me realise what a beautiful part of the country I'm living in and I'd be a full on fool not to embrace and grab hold of every experience whilst I'm here. So whilst this week I haven't been in uni I'd thought I'd document my adventures. 

First things first about a week ago now I got my hands on...HAMILTON TICKETS. Now in case you have no clue as to why the need for the capitals or the excitement on my part, Hamilton is the multi-award winning Broadway musical about the life and death of Americas first treasury secretary Alexander Hamilton and also my favourite thing ever...and I cannot even explain how happy I am to get my hands on these, it's a year away but I'm already counting down the days 'to the revolution'. If you haven't checked it out I give major advice to do so!


So along with this, this week marked the first time I entered the lovely cornish sea... after a ten minute period of wiggling into my wetsuit after the christmas food period. An experience entirely to itself...I am so hooked already and can't wait to get myself back down to the beach and dive in again. This beach in particular is normally flat, perfect for paddle boarding, but that day the waves were rocking, making the 5 year old in me come out to jump them. That's the beauty of living literally 15 minutes from the beach and the most beautiful experience of sunsets ever...bar Ibiza but that's in a league of it's own. Anyone that knows me knows I'm such a beach bum, so anytime there I truly love and enjoy. Also to the lady who swims in the sea everyday in just her swimming costume you are my HERO.

Now whilst sea swimming was also a highlight this day also signified something huge for next year...WE GOT A HOUSE! So as most uni students know, finding the perfect house for your group can be an utter nightmare. That being said after minor moment, we finally secured our DREAM house and I couldn't be happier.


Now the final element of my week I want to talk about and as you can see from the title it's going to be an ongoing segment. So with the way my uni timetable falls I get Fridays off...very efficient when Thursday is student night! But me and a couple of friends want to optimise the opportunities of living in Cornwall and seeing some of the most gorgeous parts of the country. This week we trekked over to the Lizard, which is a National Trust sight with THE MOST perfect views of the sea and little coves. We seemed to go at the perfect time for picturesque sun-setting pictures which made me feel oh-so very Poldark-esque. All in all I've had such a great new start to the new year in my second home and I can't wait for this weeks adventure...
Lots of Love,

New Year, same me.

Happy New Year my fellow bloggers (is it correct to say this when we're already 11 days in? oh well we're gonna roll with it). Now this is the pivotal part of the year where everyone starts to make that long list of dreaded resolutions (which last around a month for me and that when I try really, really hard)...to those who keep them going all year, I salute you. You have a lot more willpower than I do. Now me, being me, I rarely manage to keep up with what I plan. I think the longest I ever lasted was 'til June and that was for prom so a necessity for the average teen. This year I was leading up to the New Year attempting to think of things I wanted to achieve, yet I couldn't come up with anything I could see myself sticking to in a way that was different to previous ones that didn't stick. So instead of resolutions I've decided to make promises to myself. The promises, I see more as general goals for myself and this way there isn't the defeated feeling i

Attempting to avoid the Freshers Flu

Now many like me, before uni thought this so called dreaded flu is a myth…let me tell you we're wrong. Freshers flu strikes and it's bloody lethal, so the best way to combat it…head on. Now lets just put it out there, if your uni is like mine, you're still having fresher events even with you're first week of your course, this leaves you DRAINED. Thus weakening you and tiring you out, not to mention the alcohol levels you intake in the very first week, everyone thinks they're invincible after shots, don't even try to lie to me…I know! And with lack of sleep due to everyone always being loud, this leaves you worse for wear. I'm already suffering from the start of a cold that I really don't want to become full-blown. But like with many things there are ways around said 'freshers flu', and also mandatory things you just should do when starting uni and have to consider your health. - Register with your local doctors surgery, in the first few months

My top 5 books for summer 2015!

Hey there people of the internet! Now if your anything like me, summer doesn't seem quite right unless your lounging around, preferably in the sun, but hey I live in England and I'll take what I can get, with good  (i've read some AWFUL ones) book. Now I get it most people's reactions to this are: "I look forward to summer to get away from school and books" but the minority out there that enjoy reading, I'm firmly on this side of the group, well, this post is for you. Firstly though, reading is a great way of spending your time in the sun, (also a good use of time on airplanes when you can't use your phone), but it's also a great way of exercising your brain, especially before you go back to school, otherwise your brain freaks out like this: "AHHHHHHHHHHHHH WORDS" (my internal freak out in september). Again if your anything like me book shopping has now become increasingly difficult, to the point I can't get family or friends to g
