I think we all have an idea of what uni will be like. For me, I thought it’d be like all the American movies - people passed out drunk on long, sprawling lawns, lots of drinking, loads of cool friends and hardly any work. From the first week of my first year, I realised how… Continue reading What is University really like? | An interview Ft. Hardly Hamilton

Life after University: One Year On
Disclaimer: This is going to be a long post. Thank you to anyone who chooses to read the whole thing 😂. I’ll link shorter uni related posts at the bottom of this one, if you fancy a read! A year ago to this day, I graduated from Liverpool John Moores University with a first class… Continue reading Life after University: One Year On
University: My Experience
A week ago, I donned my (uncomfortable) cap and gown and finally confirmed that three years of reading, writing essays and fretting about every minute was finally over. I won't lie to you, I've delayed writing this post because, whilst I've been celebrating completing my degree and beginning post grad life, I'm struggling to believe… Continue reading University: My Experience
Life after Uni: An Update
It only seems right that today, when the sun is out in full force and everything looks fresh and new, I come out of blogging-based hiding (which is definitely a thing) with this post. This post has been in my drafts for a while, mainly because it was unwritten and, secondly, because writing what you're… Continue reading Life after Uni: An Update

Hello! Apologies for the lack of entries in my Dissertation Diaries series of posts. I've been super busy over Christmas and going into the New Year...just not "busy with dissertation reading or writing" kind of busy. (You can find out just what I've been busy doing in my recent update!) I've had two 2,500 word… Continue reading Dissertation Diaries: 3 Months to Go
Dissertation Diaries: Drafts and Deadlines
Hello! I hope everyone's had a pleasant week and weekend. I spent mine part stressing about upcoming assignments (two on the week we finish semester one? Cheers uni, that's very kind. NOT.), part getting the assignments actually done and (most importantly) I enjoyed the company of family I hadn't seen in a while, celebrated my Dad's birthday and danced… Continue reading Dissertation Diaries: Drafts and Deadlines
Dissertation Diaries: Why it’s Alright to Rewrite
Hello! Long time no blog! I apologise for my lack of posts recently, my attention's been elsewhere with uni work, society duties and still having a personal life whilst everything's going on. It's times like this that I wish I could switch my worker-brain off, recline and enjoy a lemon drizzle muffin (though other baked, or healthier,… Continue reading Dissertation Diaries: Why it’s Alright to Rewrite
Dissertation Diaries: Chapter One
Hello! My inspiration to blog has sort of wavered recently, as I've got uni and other things to focus my time on, so I apologise if my content is lacking a little recently. Anyway, I hope you've all had a pleasant weekend. I went on another (fancy gin fuelled) date where I more than likely… Continue reading Dissertation Diaries: Chapter One
Dissertation Diaries: Getting there
Hello! I hope you all had a great week and a fabulous weekend. I went on a date (which was full of laughs and strange conversations, so I apologise profusely, Date, if you're reading this), got an assignment checked off, did some reading and spent today with family (and prepping myself for uni tomorrow after… Continue reading Dissertation Diaries: Getting there
Dissertation Diaries: Making a start
Hello! I hope you had a pleasant week and a lovely weekend. I spent mine shopping, getting some reading done and wishing I had more of the spooky chocolate brownies I made for Halloween! If you've been keeping up with my posts on Sundays, you'll know that I've started writing my "Dissertation Diaries": a series of… Continue reading Dissertation Diaries: Making a start
