Freshers Take 3- Friday


On Friday, during the day was our Freshers Fayre so we decided to join the ridiculously long queue early in the morning and get loads of freebies :) The fayre was quite good actually this year, we got slices of Domino's, I won a 1/4 chicken at Nandos and we got loads of sweets, popcorn and free shots of alcohol :)

I love this photo of us! :)
In the evening I went to Switch and I decided to clash my patterns and wear my white stripy top and floral shorts from H&M :)

So that pretty much concludes my first week of my 3rd year :) I thought I'd pretend to be a Fresher one last time and do something everynight XD I was definitely feeling it the next day, I think I'm getting too old for this, but I'm glad we did it :) If you want to see what else I got up to you can here :)

What do you think about clashing prints? Is it a big no? :) And what did you get up to during Freshers? :)

Freshers Take 3- Thursday


During the day on Thursday, Uni were having a 'Chill Out Day' Which included different things such as yoga, pilates, zumba etc :)
So I decided to start off the morning with some Yoga, accompanied by Adina, and then in the afternoon we went to the 'Arts and Crafts' event. I'm a bit of a geek in that sense and I love doing crafty things, there were a mixture of things that you could do, but we decided to go for knitting and crochet XD followed by giant jenga :)


In the evening we all headed out to Cafe Parfait where they have their Chocolate night :) The following Thursday I decided to go to Parfait again as I really enjoyed it :) So you can read about my night here :)

Hope you're all having a good day! Do you like doing Arts and Crafts? What's your favourite? :)

Freshers Take 3- Wednesday


On Wednesday during the day, Hannah and I went to Uni to go to the bunfight, where everyone tries to get you to join their societies. It was soo busy but we got some free goodies which is always good! In the end I have now joined belly dancing, piano and salsa :) I wish I'd joined societies in my first 2 years, everyone always says 'Make sure you join a society!!' and I didn't think to listen haha! Never mind, better late than never :)

In the evening Hannah, Catherine and I decided that 3 days of going out was taking it's toll so we went out for dinner instead :) We decided to go to one of our favourite restaurants in Southampton, Mango where they serve really yummy Thai food. We always go here which you can see from here XD We all got the same thing.. Crispy beef and Mango juice :) It was delicious XD

What have you been getting up to recently? What's your favourite restaurant near you? :)

Freshers Take 3- Tuesday


Tuesday came round and CatherineHannah and I couldn't decide where to go.. Usually Tuesday's are known either for Sobar, where they have £1.50 triples or for Bloc Party.
We knew both places were going to be packed so last minute we decided to go to Bloc Party in Bedford Place. We were a bit late leaving the house, which if you're already paying a bit more to get into more venues, is a little bit silly but never mind haha! It took us too long to get ready XD Usually when I've been to Bloc Party in the past, we go Buddha, Tokyo, maybe somewhere else and then finish off in Junk. However This time we stuck to Buddha Lounge and Buddha Club. It was good in there and the music was good so we decided to stay as we knew that Junk would be hectic :)

If you want to read about our previous Freshers nights out then you can here :)

What did you do during your Fresher's events? Did you go out or did you have cozy nights in with your housemates? :)

Freshers Take 3- Monday


Carrying on with my little Freshers series, on Monday I went to the gym again during the day and Catherine moved in so our little house was complete! :) In the evening Hannah, Catherine and I headed off to Turtle Bay, a really nice Caribbean Restaurant and they do 2 for 1 on cocktails at certain times, before going to Switch. Switch used to be Provenance back when I was in first year and I absolutely loved it then! It felt good to be back, the only downside was the music was a bit off at times, but I guess everyone's taste is different :) Drinks wise it wasn't as hectic as my birthday and yeah it was really nice to go out and have a dance and it was nice to go some place a bit fancier for predrinks :) Starting off Freshers week in style! XD

Freshers Take 3- The Weekend


I'm back at Uni! And it's my final year, it's gone craaaaazy quick it's unreal! So what better way than to make most of our 'Freshers' experience than going out again, for the last time! :') We decided to do it properly seeing as it was our last time and to make the most of the free time until lectures and workloads start piling up, woo XD


I moved in quite late on Saturday, I brought sooo much stuff with me, I don't even know how! As some of it didn't even fit in the car, I think I have a problem. By the time I unpacked the car and went to Sainsbury's to rinse mum of her money, I was so tired and it was nearly time for bed XD So instead Hannah and I snuggled and watched a movie and then went to bed :)


Sunday, I met Ali to go to the gym, while we were passing campus there were free tombola stalls, we tried to knock tin cans down and failed miserably, it was so embarrassing! But then I managed to hook the lucky duck and won a toy duck haha! There was also a free photobooth so we managed to snap some pictures which was nice! :)


In the evening, Ali, Adina and I went to the pub for a few drinks and to catch up. We drank Juicy Lucy's which were pretty much bogey/vomit green although they tasted quite nice!

Overall it was a pretty chilled weekend , moving in, catching up and waiting for everyone else to arrive :) It's so weird I can still remember when I moved in 2 years ago and I miss it quite a bit, the buzz and the excitement, I don't want to get old XD
