Howdy! I haven’t been on the blog in a few weeks, sorry about that. Normally I try to have a post every other week, but the end of term is rapidly approaching and with it is Continue reading

Thoughts From A Sleepy Student Before Sunrise
I’m gonna start this off by not actually admitting what the time was when my alarm went off. Cause I’m well aware that it wasn’t exactly the earliest time ever, but it was before sunrise so that’s all that reallyyyy matters. Continue reading
A Saturday On The Beach
The three musketeers visited Dorset this past weekend y’all. I feel like it’s been ages since we did a trip like this. The last one was our Brighton Trip before summer! (Crazy.) The timing for this trip was absolutely perfect. I had just submitted a uni deadline (literally three hours beforehand), and I was SO looking forward to a weekend away Continue reading

A Window Into Decorating a Student House
I arrived back in Portsmouth this past Wednesday! Woot woot! This means a long trip with planes, trains, and cars, and I’m still recovering from losing sleep, but this also means I get to return to a city I’ve come to love as well as the friends I’ve missed so much Continue reading
Trip to Brighton
TRAVEL POST: I haven’t done one of these in a while! I figured it was about time.

It was pretty incredible as it was the warmest it’d been in England while I’ve been there (in the high 60s Fahrenheit). Continue reading
Weekend Trip To London
This weekend I went to London with these wonderful girls, Ros and Viki, and some friends of ours from church. Having previously visited most of the touristy places I had wanted to go on our last London trip in June of 2015, we focused on spending more time in certain places instead of traveling to as many as possible. I only had one location request. The one place I hadn’t visited last summer when we went was Blackfriar’s Bridge and all I needed was one picture. (After reading The Infernal Devices it was a major bucket list destination. I didn’t need to stay super long but I had to go see Jem’s favorite place in London and get a picture.) So naturally we ran across four lanes of traffic to get it, and then ran right back to jump in the car again. Continue reading

So. For everyone out there let’s just get one thing straight: Continue reading
