Things I wish I knew before second year
So second year flew by and I’m now in my third and final year of my undergraduate degree. I had such an amazing year. I met new people, I thoroughly enjoyed my course, I experienced lots of exciting things and I am ready to face the mountain of assignments and exams that I know I…
The Future
So I thought I would write a post on something a bit different and considered uncertain for many students – the future. Also, this post might seem like a bit of a rant, of which I apologise. Honestly, the future scares me and I’m sure there are people out there with the same opinion as…
How to jazz up any meal
Now I’m no James Martin but I can find my way around a kitchen. Most of what I know has been acquired from my mum and grandparents over the years. I think most people can say that nothing quite beats their home cooking – especially that traditional Sunday Roast. I’m sure by now you’re sick…
Hello 2017!

Managing and relieving educational stress
Unfortunately, I don’t have Reading Week but I’m sure many of you do. Reading week is the perfect chance to catch up on work and reading that might have caught up on you during the weeks before. Second year is proving to be more challenging, in terms of the workload but not the actual content….
Freshers’ is over – what next?
Now that Freshers’ is over and you are settled into university life, you are likely to have some sort of work to complete. University isn’t like school or college where you would have classes and have some homework to do. You are expected as a student to go to lectures and seminars and then complete a…
You don’t know unless you try
So I’ve officially completed my second week at the University of South Wales and it’s been rather busy. I’ve been a student in first year and second year this week. How many students can say that? At the start of the week, I was enrolled as a first-year student. I was happy studying a course I…
