University Update # 6

Yes I'm still alive and I'm still here. As you probably can tell things have been a bit quiet on the blogging front since I started back at university for my third and final year and I thought I should just fill you in on a few new things going on. 

University Update # 5 : House Drama

I am now officially back at university for third and final year, which is both terrifying and exciting! I am literally so happy to be back in Oxford, for a number of reasons and cannot wait to get back into the routine of studying.

The last time I updated you all was as second year came to an end and boy has a lot happened over the summer, well not even the summer the past four weeks have been crazy and probably not in a good way...

Slimming World Update # 10

 It's been a very long time since I've done a Slimming World update, basically before the summer began. A lot has gone on and I've got a lot to fill you in on so grab a cuppa and get yourself comfy for my rollercoaster summer.

Disneyland Paris 2016 Trip Bucket List Revisited

I am now back from Disneyland Paris and after having an amazing week (it was actually five days but it's far easier to say a week!) and sadly having to come back and face reality (which was tough after having such a magical time) I thought I should see if I did manage to do everything on my DLP bucket list.

Naked Noodle*

If you've been following me for a while you'll know that I follow Slimming World and trying to find syn free / low syn snacks is a vital thing especially as I am always up for trying something new. When Naked Noodles wanted to send me some products to try I snapped them up.

What's In My Travel Wash Bag : Disney Edition

 If you saw my last post you would have seen what I packed in my travel make up bag for my Disneyland Paris trip. Today I thought I'd share what I'm taking in My Travel Wash Bag. Like my make up bag as I am going with my sister we are sharing a lot of products even more so when it comes to our wash/skincare products.

What's In My Travel Make Up Bag : Disney Edition

 Whilst you are reading this I will actually be in Disneyland Paris, which is crazy to think! I am beyond excited but deciding what to take in my make up bag has been much more difficult than I thought! I think what someone packs in their travel make up products shows what they truly love in their make up collection to want to use solely those products for a set period of time.

Disneyland Paris 2016 Trip Bucket List

I go to Disneyland Paris in 4 days, 4 days people! I am so excited! We have all our euros, tickets, insurance and we are nearly completely packed but I cannot wait! I thought I'd share some of my aims (I don't really know what to call them) for this Disney trip. As I don't know when I'll next be able to go to Disney there are a lot of things I want to do especially as I haven't been to DLP for well over ten years!

What I'm Watching # 6

Throughout the summer I find I get hooked on so many new TV shows as in the evenings I like to unwind by watching an episode or two of a TV series. I have been watching so many different things recently I thought I ought to share them with you.

July Highlights

July has been a pretty hectic month for me. It wasn't so much at the beginning of the month but the last couple of weeks have flown by and have been insane!

Disneyland Paris Meal Planning

If you read my Disneyland Paris post you'll know I'm off to Disneyland Paris at the end of August with my sister. It's now just under 60 days until we go which means we can now book our restaurant reservations for the time we are there and I thought I'd share with you our plans for whilst we are away.

20 Things I Won't Miss About Living in Student Halls

For the past two years whilst I've been at university I have been in some form of student halls. In first year I, like most first years, lived in university supplied student accommodation with complete strangers. It was an unusual experience, and one I won't be doing again in a hurry. In second year, I lived in private student accommodation with three girls I chose to live with. I am relieved to say next year (for my third and final year at Oxford Brookes University) I will be living in private rented house which I am excited for and I'm glad to be seeing the back of student halls for hopefully the foreseeable future. 

25 Summer Blog Post Ideas

I have recently been struggling with blog post ideas and have been writing lists of ideas to try and give me some inspiration and thought I'd share some of them with you today to help other bloggers out!

Spread The Love # 2

I did a Spread The Love post quite a while ago now but blogger orientated. As I have been watching a lot more YouTube over reading blogs the last few months I thought it was only right to do a post dedicated to my favourite YouTubers who I always look for first in terms of my subscription box.

Update

I usually don't really do 'life' update posts that often, they're usually university related or Slimming World updates. I don't normally feel the need to do a life update that often as I do do other updates about aspects of my life but I feel like one is needed at the minute.

Colouring Books for Adults

 The past year has seen a rise in popularity for adult colouring books. I for one used to love colouring and when I saw this latest trend I knew I needed to get in on it and so saw the start of my adult colouring book collection.

Throwback: Favourite Favourite TV Shows

Since turning 20 and saying farewell to my teens and childhood and hello to adulthood I have become quite the retrospect. I was sat browsing Netflix and realised how different childrens TV is today compared to what I grew up watching. Seeing as its a Thursday it only seemed right to do a Throwback Thursday of all my favourite TV shows I used to love watching as a child.

May Highlights

Despite not blogging a lot this month (you can read more about that here) I have still had a lot of highlights from the month!

What I'm Watching #5

Since finishing exams a couple of weeks ago it means I have been able to sit for hours on end and binge watch TV shows, which I personally love doing! Sometimes you just need a hot chocolate, comfy pjs and a new TV series to have a bit of me time, or in my case a well deserved break after exams.

University Update # 4: Finishing Second Year

I've been a bit haywire with blogging recently, and trust me that was not an intentional. I had a plan of posts I was going to upload across May but life just got away from me and before I knew it I had no blog photos prepared and no blog posts written and no time to dedicate to doing either of these things. As you'll know blogging is a hobby of mine, I don't earn from it but I also have other commitments such as being a student and having a part time job and obviously when push comes to shove the blog has had to take a back seat. But I'm glad to be back in the swing of things and I have lots of posts that I just cannot wait to write!
