I'm Back, Again...

I’m Back, Again…

Hi, hello!

I seem to write a post similar to this every few months, don’t I?

I apologise, sometimes I just lose my mojo – but it’s come back again now and I have a few things I’d like to share with you through various blog posts! I’m going to try my best to post regularly again. The thing I struggle with the most is the photographs for blog posts, I’m quite the perfectionist in that area, but I’m…

A University Update

A while back I shared with you all the choices I made on my university application, and now I have decided that you deserve a bit of an update! Here we go:

As a reminder, I made five choices on my UCAS form:

University of Sussex – Life Sciences with a foundation year to progress to Biomedical Science (BSc)

University of Surrey – Biomedical Science (BSc)

University of Southampton – Biomedical…

My Recent Favourites

You know how I used to do favourites post every month, well, that kind of stopped didn’t it? If you’re not sure what I’m referring to, I’d recommend you check out my last post, everything is explained nicely there!

If you know me at all, you’d know that I like a good ol’ product and I like a good ol’ product review even more. Honestly, these kinds of posts are one of my favourite types to write,…

I’m Back

Um…

Hi?

Are you here?

Long time no see! It seems I disappeared off of the face of the Earth for a few months, but here I am now making my almighty return. I think it’s very clear a lot of stuff has gone down since I last posted here, and Coronavirus (the infamous COVID-19) only just scratches the surface. I feel like I do this quite often, I disappear for a while and then come back with a variety…

My 2020 Goals

I whipped up a quick 2019 Goal Review in my last post, so I thought it would be wise to share with you some goals that I have for the next year!

My 2020 Goals 1. Pass A-Level Biology and BSL

It’s my last A-Level and I want to do well so that I get into uni. I don’t do any other subjects, other than BSL, so it can have my full attention. I’d like to get at least a C but maybe even a B! As for…

2019 Goals Roundup!

(I wrote this post back in December and never got round to posting it, but here we are! The pictures are super old as well, fun!)

This year and this decade is coming to an end, so I thought I ought to take a step back and look at how many of the goals I’d set myself this year I have achieved. In June, I looked at my midyear progress and I still had a way to go with some goals but hopefully, now I…

November Favourites

It’s time again for another ‘favourites’ post, hooray! I love writing these posts because I enjoy sharing products that I have been using in the last month or so.

November Favourites 1. New Phone – iPhone XR

At the end of November, I FINALLY…

What's In My Mental Health Kit?

What’s In My Mental Health Kit?

Look at me, finally writing a proper blog post! I’m sorry it’s been so long but I’m hoping to settle back down into a fortnightly or even weekly schedule. Anyway, in this post, I’m going to be outlining what I keep in my little ‘Mental Health Kit’ that I keep in my bag (almost) everywhere I go! The things in this kit can be very useful to me in times of trouble and, who knows, maybe I’ll tell…

October Favourites

Happy November a.k.a BIRTHDAY MONTH! It’s time for another monthly favourites roundup – enjoy! (I apologise for the images I know they’re awful!)

October Favourites 1. Tangle Toy

Ok, yeah, this sounds a bit funny but hear me out. I have anxiety & co and so I always feel the need to move or I need to be distracted by a niggling thought. I bought one (or three) of these and they are PERFECT for…

UCAS 2020: What Have I Applied For?

In early October, I (once again!) sent my university application off to UCAS (Universities & Colleges Admissions Service) in the hope that I’d get a place! Last year, I applied with only two A-Levels and therefore didn’t receive any offers, but I’m much more hopeful this year now I’m going to have three A-Levels! So, what did I apply for…

UCAS 2020 Application 1. Life Sciences Foundation Year to…

August Favourites

I am very aware that this post is VERY LATE! I apologise and I hope you enjoy it! I did write this a while back but never got a chance to take pictures, but here you are:

Ah, it’s time for my monthly favourites again, whoop! I’m sorry that it’s a little late in the month – my blog writing has been a little bit delayed by starting college again! But, let’s get straight into it – what did I like in…

A Life Update

Hello, that’s right – I’m still alive! I know not much has happened here since the end of August, so I think that I owe it to you to explain why. A lot has happened since August, so it might be a good idea to grab a quick cuppa and sit down to read this post! Without further ado, here is my life update!

What Has Happened?

The last post I wrote on this blog I wrote whilst in Scotland. I was…

The Truth About Loneliness

Loneliness is real and it affects many people from all walks of life every single day. It’s a longing for human interaction but I think that it’s not just with any old human – it’s to those who are close to you. You can be surrounded by people and still be lonely.

I think that I’m about to be hit with a huge wave of loneliness. My brain tells me I already have, but I think there’s more to come.

How I'm Planning To Prepare For My UCAT Exam

How I’m Planning To Prepare For My UCAT Exam

Now results day has come and gone, I’ve been able to focus more on my new university application for the 2020 cycle. After being rejected last year, I’ve been working very hard to make sure that I have a good chance of getting a place on a course. Once I’ve applied, I’ll detail these all in a post but in this post we’re just focusing on one of my choices.

Most of my course choices (3/5) are for…

We all know how much I love a lip product, just see my EOS Lipbalm Review, Glossier Balm Dot Com Review, My June Favouritesfeaturing Lanolips and many other posts! When I heard e.l.f cosmetics were bringing out a new, limited edition, JellyPop range – I knew I had to try it! I quite like e.l.f as a brand anyway so I knew that the product would live up to my expectations! There are several…

A-Level Results Day 2019

In 2017, I posted my GCSE Results Day Post and I decided that I would do the same again for my (first round of…) A Levels! As you can probably tell from my range of blog posts (see here: (College: Sept 2017, College Update 1, College Q&A, My Transfer Exam Results, College Update 2, Why I’m Doing My A Levels Over Three Yearsand others) my college experience, thus far, has been an unusual one.…
