I don't like walking around this old and empty house, so hold my hand, I'll walk with you, my dear.

Hello!

Haven't posted in a while as I have been busy busy busy. Moved out of our house in Southampton for good and have officially settled back into London life!

Here's a few snaps of what I've been up to...

 

Last housemate photo at the top here, although we are smiling happily in this photo, we were obviously all crying on the inside. Very sad to not be living in a house with these gals anymore and not having constant singing around the place! Myself and my giant stack of books are quite happy to be back in London though now and no longer paying for bills or our own food haa!
 

Went to Soho flea market and bumped into Caggie and Proudlock from Made In Chelsea!

It was my 23rd birthday on the 31st May, had such a lovely day! Also discovered some really good charity shops and cute antique stalls in Angel.

This is probably my favourite photograph in the world. Anyone who knows me knows how much I absolutely LOVE Douglas Booth. When asked 'if you could meet anyone in the world, who would it be?' My answer is always always Douglas, so when I spotted him wandering around Covent Garden with a friend shopping I almost fainted, had to get a photo or I knew I'd regret it and he was so lovely and charming. Still smiling now thinking about it!

Today I went to Highgate Cemetery as, after reading Her Fearful Symmetry, I developed a fascination with the place and I wasn't disappointed! It was really eery and beautiful, lots of graves of famous people which I found really interesting being the huge geek that I am!

Daisy, Daisy, Give Me Your Answer, Do.

 

Hello!

 

This week has been the emotional time of my life, University has come to an end, IT'S ALL OVER. My last exam was on Monday and since then it has been celebration after celebration! On Monday I had an English Class end of year party which was so fun, and made me feel very sad as I said goodbye to everyone! Followed by my last ever shift at work and a night out with my work pals on Tuesday, then Wednesday was the last Oceana and night out with my best friend Carla and Thursday was my birthday party/our end of year house party which was a very messy but very amazing evening!

 

Today Charlotte and I went to The Common for one last stroll (I know, I am making it sound as though we are dying - in some ways I feel we are.) It was so warm and sunny, so at least Southampton is being kind to us on our last weekend!

Our party was 90s themed, I love dressing up and actually quite enjoyed everyone's outfits, can we all start dressing like this in real life please?

Some end of Uni shenanigans snaps!

Sometimes It Snows In April

Hello!

 

This time last year I'm pretty sure I was spending my days in shorts and dresses, I have forgotten what having bare legs and not wearing a coat feels like! Even the weather man was apologizing for the forecast on the news this week, April is looking pretty bleak.
 

Even though it is freezing cold and snowy in London there is still plenty of fun to be had (in twelve layers) so this week my friend Fran and I decided to have a nice cultured day out - we started off at the V&A, which is probably my favourite museum in London, but I was really sad as when we tried to get into the amazing library a huge bouncer threw us out claiming you weren't allowed bags in there?! I suppose people try to steal the books and Fran and I obviously looked like criminals.

 

We went for lunch and ate our own weight in food before heading to The Old Operating Theatre. Now, I've already posted about this place before and I absolutely love it. Think my obsession with old medicine stems from GCSE History where I met my best friend Megan and we would spend our days making up songs about historical figures, anyway this love has stayed with me so The Old Operating Theatre is like heaven to my inner history geek.

 

I think Fran was a bit scared of all the medical paraphernalia and it made her quite grateful for the NHS so after looking at rusty amputation tools I took her to Patisserie Lila in Borough Market to recover with a giant slab of red velvet cake.

 

I hope you are all coping in this bitter April weather, let's all hope summer is just around the corner!

Frosty London

Hello!

Once again I am apologising for having not posted for absolutely ages. When I was a fresher I really did think that third year would be a walk in the park, I mean how hard is to write one big old essay?! Well apparently it is MUCH harder than I anticipated and I now spend all of my days in the library, slowly losing my mind and soul.

As well as my horrible dissertation, I am also making a magazine for my Final Major Project. My friend Claire and I chose to do an Indie magazine aimed at guys and girls involving all things fashion, music, exhibitions, gigs, films, books - basically anything and everything that young professionals and students love to read about!
This weekend we went to London to do our voxpops and to find some stylish young people to snap photographs of for our Street Style section. We also started to do one of the photoshoots for the magazine but had to stop because it was SO freezing and our hands were blue.

Here is a sneak peak of some of our snaps from the weekend!

Sail Away

Hello!

I haven't posted for AGES because I have had the flu and a stupid amount of work to do. I miss the days of first and second year where you could just have fun all the time without a care in the world (I do reget spending a good 40% of my Uni life napping.)

Time is going so quickly and soon I'll be leaving Southampton for good, so Charlotte and I have vowed to make the most of our last few weeks and explore Hampshire as much as we can.

Today, after Uni, we went to the Marina for a stroll. It was freezing and windy (typical Southampton weather) but the sun was FINALLY out, so at least it looked nice.

My hair is looking flyyyyy.
