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.

Anti-Bucket List: February

Today is an exciting day, not only because it's the end of February and I'm BACK with my second Anti-Bucket List (read the last one!) but also because today is February 29th i.e. the LEAP DAY. Now, I think that's exciting because it only happens once a year which means it's extra and have you heard this one, ladies?! Women are allowed to PROPOSE!!! (Can you sense the sarcasm?) Most importantly, Google did a really cute doodle for the leap day with bunnies. Try and tell me that's not exciting.

The Book ♥ Tag

Today, as you are probably aware, is Valentine's Day and I wanted to write something to mark the occasion. However, I don't have anything particularly original or profound to say on the subject and I didn't want to lament over single life, so I decided to turn to my real true love: books. I've seen a few people on Twitter talking about Sanne and Jean's excellent Book  Tag video from last Valentine's so I thought I'd get into the act with some bookish lovin', cos that's the best kind, right?

My Bedroom is SO Pinterest

Over the last six months or so I've been having a bit of a revamp in my bedroom. I didn't have the time or the patience to redecorate exactly but I've decluttered a LOT, changed some of my furniture (which I built myself, I hasten to add #girlscan) and added few little ~personal~ touches to make it a nicer place to be in. My bedroom is not very big and because it's both my work space and my relaxing space I wanted to make it as cosy (but clear) as possible.

Greetings from Yoga Camp

Image source: https://www.instagram.com/romanlcmartinez/
Last year was a bit of a turning point in my attitude towards exercise, fitness and physical wellbeing which is something I've talked a little about before. While I didn't exactly hate all exercise beforehand, I never thought I'd be the girl that worked out for FUN. That all changed when I met my friend Adriene towards the end of 2014 and completed her 30 Days of Yoga series last January. I say "met" and I say "friend" because that's what it feels like, but it's not exactly true. Let me explain.
