Wow! It’s been a long time since I’ve seen myself here writing to you. Meanwhile, I’ve kept quite busy. In my Master’s program, I typically have 2 classes per week which are 3 hours each. That leaves me a lot of free time which I was pretty scared I would waste. Luckily, I have learned […]

Hey there! It is already halfway through Freshers week! As a fresher I must say it has been an amazing week so far. I have been fortunate enough to meet so many lovely people through – my course, Christian Union and general socialising. In between binging on Netflix whilst in my flat and skyping my […]

The time has almost come where you now just have less than 3 weeks before you start this new journey in university. I remember this time last year I had a million thoughts going through my mind from excitement of beginning a new phase in my life, to being scared and a little sad to […]
