Summer so far!

Really need to get better at this blogging malarkey!

Since finishing exams, my life seems to have improved by one million percent. First, I passed my driving test! And then, my best friend, who lives in Australia, arrived on the day of my last exam. I only see her once a year, so it was great that I got to get completely wasted with her (which I hadn't done for about 4 months!).

Quickly after that - 3 days to be precise - I was off to Glastonbury Festival. It was the best weekend of my life by far. A blog post isn't too far away...

After I got back from Glasto, I had to go back to college for a couple of weeks (not that I went really). In this time I was meant to be sorting out visiting unis, knowing what I will be applying to in November, basically sorting out my life.

That didn't happen.

At the end of term, my college does this totally pointless thing where you have to spend a week doing work-that-doesn't-actually-apply-to-anything-but-does-because-they-need-everyone-to-have-more-college-hours. It's called 'wider skills week'. But luckily for me, instead of learning how to play bridge or learn latin for four days, I got to go to Italy for a Geography trip. And it was awesome (again, a blog post is coming).

Four days after that I was off to Croatia with my best pals for a lads on tour kind of holiday. And I have to say it was the funniest week of my life. It has made me really want to go interrailing next summer, because there are ways of doing it so cheaply.

Anyway, this post is really just to get myself back into blogging! I have so much more to write and organise now... Here we go I guess!

It's been a while...

Indeed it has been a long while since my last blog post, I have just been so busy with... Well, life!

I have been lucky enough to have met my beautiful baby cousin, Ines, while I haven't been blogging. She is absolutely adorable and I have never felt the connection that I have with her before. I love her so much, but feel like I have a huge responsibility!

eBay has unfortunately been taking up an unfortunately quite significant amount of my time recently. I thought it would be a good idea to download the eBay app - and my God, don't do it! I am constantly flicking through and finding things that are going for 99p. So I bid and I win them for a quid or something, but of course there's the postage and packaging that adds on a few more pounds. And if you're like me (who bought 8 things in a day off eBay), your bank account will have a heart attack. So don't download it, for your own sake.

It's that time of year again - exam period. I am working really hard as I really want to do well in these exams. Hopefully it will pay off. Last year I think I over worked myself, and I got very stressed. So this year I started revising much earlier, to try and make myself feel more confident (which I do). I am also trying to keep myself busy in the evenings. I am about to start watching Breaking Bad properly, which I am looking forward to. Baking is also taking over my evenings. I made these muffins today which are low fat and scrummy...

It's super sunny in London at the moment, and you can tell because people are actually smiling! It doesn't happen a lot, especially on the tube, but I am enjoying everyone else's happiness.

Enjoy your week!
