Life Update // University

University is something I have always had mixed feelings about. The thought of it makes me feel both incredibly excited yet so nervous. Luckily, I have been offered an unconditional place at De Montfort University to study Journalism and Media BA (Hons).

With going to university comes big responsibilities such as living on my own, doing my own food shopping and juggling my time between studying and everything else. It scares me to think I'll have to fend for myself instead of having my mum and dad cook me dinner and wash my clothes. (Although bringing bags of washing home for my mum will definitely happen!) I'm so excited for this experience and thought I need to let you lovely lot know because everyone in the blogging community are so supportive and lovely!

 I can't wait to start writing blog posts about things I have brought for my room and tips for saving money ect. Keep an eye out for those soon! I've already posted a mini haul here, but will probably post 10 more before I go, watch this space. 

Anyone else looking at going to uni this year?

2016 // Lets talk

Being a true blogger means writing down all the things you wish to achieve for the new year, so I thought I'd do the same. My guilty pleasure is hearing or reading all about what other peoples resolutions are. I find it so motivational... (For now) 

1. Go to university!!!

University is both exciting and terrifying at the same time, but I can't wait till the summer when I get my grades and get to start a brand new chapter of my life somewhere new! (Hopefully...) I'm technically already a year behind where I should be in life but I know that this year I feel so much more ready to begin studying something I know I am passionate about. This year I am going to work my socks off to achieve the grades I need.

2. Drink more water.

I say this every single year... But this year I mean it! I know my body will thank me for it.

3. Blogging

Blogging is something I have kept quiet about since 2013. When I first started I wasn't uploading regularly and my content wasn't that great to read. However, since the beginning of the summer I really have tried to create a blog that people would be interested in reading. I recently shared my blog on my other social media platforms and the support I got from friends, family and fellow bloggers was pretty over whelming. I created my own Facebook page here if you'd like to give it a like. I feel like this year I will be uploading a lot more content and will be bringing bigger things to my little blog. 

4. Eat better!

I have tried numerous times to become veggie but this year I am going to try for the whole of January and see how I feel about not eating meat. I know to some people that sounds crazy but either way I am going to completely change my diet. I will limit myself to one cheat meal a week (take away or munchies night) and will be eating at least 3 of my 5 a day every single day. 

5. Relaaaaax

Anyone who knows me personally knows that I am a worrier. I over think and stress about everything and anything. This year I'm going to start doing yoga twice a week to give myself some time to unwind. 

Let me know any new year resolutions you have set for 2016!

Hello 2015 // Resolutions!

Happy new year lovelies!!! Hope you all had an amazing Christmas and New Year and that 2014 was good to you all. 

2014 was a crazy year for me. It has its ups and downs but I have gone through so many amazing experiences and traveled to some beautiful places with my family and boyfriend. Overall, this year was good for me. Towards the 

end of the year things got tough but it goes to show that not everything can be perfect but you make the most out of the time you have and the people you are with. I am kicking off my year with the typical resolution post.

1. Be more organised.

I really need to schedule blog posts and organise my time more wisely to make sure I get everything done on time and don't let my lazy habits slip back!!!

2. No more fizzy!!!

I drink waaay to much fizzy drinks and I am putting a stop to it! When I say stop I don't mean go cold turkey. I am going to allow myself to only drink fizzy drinks on the weekends. No weekday fizzy! I am going to drink just water and fruit juices in the week and even on the weekends keep the fizzy drinks to nights out. This is to help make my skin better and a step to becoming healthier.

3. Exercise more.

Now I ended up joining the gym and never ever going. In the end I quit because money has become tight so I aim to go on runs more! I want to go on a run at least 3/4 times a week. I will also be doing more at home exercises like yoga. Hopefully this will help me feel better and more healthier. 

5. Pass my theory and driving test!

I started learning to drive at the beginning of November. I hope to pass my theory either this month or next. I aim to have learnt to drive by the summer but defo by the end of 2015. Fingers crossed!!!

6. Worry less.

This is a pretty huge one which will take a lot of time and hard work but I want to become a more relaxed person and enjoy things more. My anxiety has ruined enough things and this year I am going to beat it! I am going to become a less stressed person and focus on being happy and make the most of everything I do.

So, there are my resolutions for this year. I am going to try sooo hard to make sure I stick to these resolutions as I feel they will all help me become a better and healthier person. I have many more things I want to do this year so I might create a bucket list or something as a post this month. Let me know if you like that idea and comment below any of your resolutions for 2015!
