5 Tips for Better Time Management

So with the start of a new semester, more commitments, and a whole lot more modules, time management has become imperative to my day to day life. Juggling life and work doesn't always happen seamlessly, but I have a few tips that will hopefully help you breathe a bit easier when thinking about your days...

Little break in Edinburgh

So after working 13 hour shifts for a week, I finally got time to have a little holiday with a few of my friends in Edinburgh. Luckily, one of my friends goes to uni there so we just stayed in her flat for all that time. I just thought I'd share with you guys a...

A year of Regrets and Failures

So I've spent months trying to pluck up the courage to write an update on here, but in all honesty, I've been feeling really down about how this year has gone. I've written and deleted this post at least 20 times before now. I felt like admitting to failure again would make me appear dumb...

Pics in Barcelona (vegging out)

So I've just come back from a much needed holiday in Barcelona with my family. It was only for a week, but I'd spent the previous week doing long shifts at work, so I was very excited to just relax and sleep for a while. The first mistake I made was spending a few weeks...

Dealing with Failure (taking a break)

So exam results came out, and it's not been the most fun. But I think it's important to be honest about how medicine has lows as well as highs. So I failed one of the three modules I took back in January, and scraped a pass in the other two. Of course when I found...

Exams are Over!

So I've been gone for a little while now, and that's been because of January exams and adjusting to Semester two. I'm not going to lie, I was really stressed during the exam season because I'd left a lot of things (everything) to the last second. Exams didn't go as well as I wanted them...

New Year, New Goals

Happy New year to everyone! We made it to 2018. We've got over 300 days to make this year as amazing as it could possibly be. Of course this time of year is perfect for reflecting on the last year and seeing what worked in our lives and what didn't. We might make New Year...

First Semester is Over!

So I've been back home in London for a few days now, and I thought I'd just check in with you guys. Semester one is done!!! (or more specifically for me as a second year, semester three) I'm sure most of you will have also finished or finishing soon and I just wanted to write...

#Treatyoself

So this week has been just wonderful. I actually have another week left of the semester, but I've kind of given myself this last week off. I started off last week with some very anticipated retail therapy. I had a wish list of makeup and clothes I'd had since the beginning of term and I...

I Hate Anatomy

I never thought I'd ever say this but... I hate the anatomy module 😦 It's been a really hard few months for me in second year with anatomy. I try to be as honest as possible with my blog, and right now my dislike for anatomy as a module is only growing every time I...
