introduction

hi!

my name is rachel and welcome to my blog! this will mainly be about academics and studying, as I am currently a law student at the University of Oxford.

i also do talk about fun stuff, such as cats, photography, harry potter, etc.

*edit* i also LOVE the sims!!

(you can't really be an Oxford student without being a fan of harry potter).

speaking of photography, i do it a lot. not that I'm very good, but i will definitely be posting very "aesthetic" (?) photos of Oxford such as the Radcliffe Camera (RadCam), other libraries, college buildings, and more.

i will soon do a basic "facts-about-me" post, but for now, thanks for reading!

In the depth of winter, I finally learned that within me there lay an invincible summer.

does anyone else get sadder in the summer than they do in the winter?

Hii dear,

Hope you are doing well,

I needed some book recommendations, something fictional.

If you have some recommendations, please let me know.

Sending lots of love ♡

not sure if you're a fan of classics but I personally really enjoyed jekyll and Hyde! aside from that, I liked normal people, the Rachel incident, a lot of holly Bourne books are great. to be honest some of the best books I've read have been non-fictional, I personally need to get reading properly again! :)
