A Threefold Muddle

It's been a completely mad week. Mad, busy and overwhelming to say the very least. After months of hard work, stress, long days in the library and several mini meltdowns, I handed in my undergraduate dissertation on Wednesday. And now I feel weird. I'm an emotional mess.

I've been thinking a lot in the two days since my hand in and it's come down to three things: I am a threefold muddle.

Anti-Bucket List: April

April has been a combination of celebration and STRESS. More on the good stuff shortly, but first let me indulge in a stress rant. If I look back on the previous three months of the year, I'm sure I've talked a lot about being busy with/fed up with/exhausted by uni work, but that was before the reality of April hit me. The month began at the back end of the Easter holidays in which I did not do enough work and then I spent the rest of the time making up for it. My dissertation deadline is in three weeks time and I finish uni all together in little over a month so I'm sure it's going to go up another level, but for now let's just say I am flat out.

Recipe: Avocado Brownies

Two of my favourite things? Baking and avocados.

You wouldn't think they'd go together would you, but according to Pinterest they do. A little while ago I had a go at making these avocado brownies and while they were pretty goooood, they were a little bit bitter for my liking. HOWEVER, if at first you don't succeed, try and try again, so yesterday I had another go, adapting the recipe to make it sweeter.

My Naked Face

I do not like my skin.

I'm very much in the mindset of self-empowerment and trying the best we can to love ourselves (especially as we are seemingly taught from a young age to hate ourselves), but I do not like my skin.

Anti-Bucket List: March

I know the "time flies" thing is a mega cliche, but just HOW we are at the end of March (a quarter through the year!) is beyond me. And yet here we are, having made it through another month. It almost goes without saying at the point that March has been crazy busy uni-wise (do you see a pattern?) but there have been some sweet moments too.

Longing for 9-5

I finish university in little over two months (I'm sorry, WHAT?!) and I currently have no real idea what I want to do. Something with writing I hope and ideally something creative, but what exactly I don't know. What I do know is that recently I've been longing after a 9-5.

Reimagining Pride and Prejudice

I'm going to apologise now in advance because I'm about to go off on another Pride and Prejudice ramble. Brace yourselves.
