As I mentioned in my recent recipe post, I've now been on the Paleo diet for 1 week! If you don't know what the paleo diet consists of, it's basically a no wheat and dairy diet, and the idea behind it is that you wouldn't eat something that you couldn't hunt for yourself, as though you were a caveman. So yes, that means...
With Freshers just around the corner and students all around the country getting hyped up for a fun filled week of booze, new friends and no doubt some coughs and sneezes, I thought I’d give you a little advice on how to make the most of your first year of university. Making the most of... ...Where you live Almost every university student would...
My next fresher is a lovely chap named Mike, who studies Biochemistry and Biology at Keele University. I first met Mike when I invited Kam - who you shall soon hear from too - to prinks before a house party, accompanying the lads was a bottle of sambucca, which by the end of the night we had all set alight to whilst it...
It's been almost a week of attempting the paleo diet, and surprisingly it's been going pretty well, but you can hear all about that in my week review tomorrow! But today, inspired to do some baking on my day off by The Great British Bake Off - let's not even talk about the bincident - I thought I'd try my poor baking skills...
Since I've got back from my all inclusive holiday, which you can read about here, I've definitely been feeling that my body's a little out of tune having gorged myself on plates full of spicy, delicious foreign food.

My next Fresher of the academic year 2013/14 is a very lovely fellow blogger named Amber, who blogs over at Amber Love. Amber is a Biochemistry student at Portsmouth University, also taking a French language module as of next year, and has been kind enough to share her story of her first year... 'This is a pic of me and the two guys...
Michael and I have now been back in the country since Friday morning, and although we only spent a week in Tunisia, it's been weird adjusting to the heat, the sounds, and the view that we now wake up to back in England - and not only that, but the fact that we are once again at opposite ends of the country. Most...
My next ex-fresher is the lovely Emily (right), who studies at the University of Southampton's Winchester School of Art. She studies Fashion & Textile Design, with a Fashion Design specific pathway. And having seen some of her creations, I can say that she's going places! So, here's what Emily got up to during her first year... Have you enjoyed your first year at...
Not too long ago I was asked a question over twitter about how best to prepare for your second year, and whilst these next few weeks seem all about the freshers, you lovely second years probably still have a few questions too. Whilst I've already told you about what to expect, how to prepare for the year ahead may be something that many of...
It's back! To kick off my Freshers' End series this year, I've picked someone who has been kind enough to share plenty of his memories and advice from his first year at university. Now I claim to be pretty honest on this here blog, and my first soon to be second year has certainly respected that, and here is the story of James'...
