Fresher's Finale

Hiya Guys,

It is the end of the week entitled 'Fresher's Week' and, from tomorrow, I will be attending lectures and basically working my arse off to do well in my History Course.

Although I may have not had the 'crazy' fresher's week that most people have, it was pretty crazy for me because, for the last 18 years, I have been living the life of a hermit. As I have told anyone who will listen, I have been out more times this week than I have in my entire life (I have been 18 for a little less than a year). 

Being in London, I have discovered that there are so many place to go on a night out BUT they are all pretty far away and can be expensive if you total together the costs of transport, entrance fee's and the price of the drinks themselves. Therefore I chose to pretty much stay in the Student Union bar except for one night (where I ventured 20 minutes out). So I mean this won't be the most interesting post about fresher's, but I learnt some big things:

1. No one judges you for not drinking! I am not a huge fan of alcohol because I hate the idea of not knowing what I'd do if I was drunk. Initially family members had told me that I would be made fun of but, actually it's the opposite, a lot of people admire you for having that will power and ability to have fun without 3 shots of vodka down you.

2. People in the union are actually pretty friendly. The number of people who actually approach you is mental! People are in the same boat as you and want to make friends, don't be worried if one approaches you and if you can't think of questions, stick to these 3:
- What's your name
- Where are you from
What course are you studying

3. People are going to be drunk so don't trust someone too much because the next day, they may have forgotten about it. Don't take it to heart because it will probably just be that they forgot you. It is not always the case but its better to know not to worry

4. Don't do anything you regret. The number of people I saw doing well things that are slightly distasteful were immense! Don't get too drunk and end up doing things that you won't remember but if you were sober, you wouldn't do!

Finally, my biggest thing is that you can go out and just people watch. I personally found it amazing just watching how people react in a social environment. God, I sound like such an old nerd but there is nothing wrong with that.

So yeah that was my Fresher's experience and comment below if you have anything more interesting because most likely you will!

That's all for now my dears,
See you soon

WWE! A New Era?

Hiya Guys, I really hope that this week's blog title is obvious to those of you who understand and will most likely read this post! I am a big WWE fan and, before you say 'oh it's fake', well I do know that but I'd like to also say that Marvel and DC and all those films are also fake. So, these last few weeks made history in WWE by having the Brand Split of RAW and Smackdown and making them both live.  Here is my overview of the Draft last week as well as the first week of the so-called 'new era.' Draft Day I will be honest and say that Draft Day was a huge disappointment in terms of the draft itself and the way it was organised. It seemed extremely lackluster and rushed in comparison to the other years and seemed to be very much focused on the Managers of each of the companies (Stephanie/ Mick Foley and Shane/ Daniel Bryan) instead of the superstars. However, when it comes to the picks itself, I was pleasantly surprised and happy. I think...

My Strictly favourites for this year!

Hiya guys, Hasn't the first few episodes of Strictly been amazing and shocking, in terms of talent and the results (book Tameka leaving). I don't remember a year where so many of the contestants are this talented so early because even Ed Balls isn't as bad as people like John Sargeant or Greg Wallace. Before I start, special shoutout to Judge Rinder who literally entertains me every week and Claudia who proves that us short people can do whatever we want. So, what does a new series of SCD call for... oh yeah a list of my favourite's who I think have a proper shot of winning the glitterball this year. I am sorry for the size of the list, they're all too good to just pick a few! LETS GOOOO... 1. Danny Mac and Oti Mabuse I loved Danny in Hollyoaks so I was mega excited when it came up that he was coming on the show and by God he did not disappoint me. I was also thrilled when he was paired with Oti who is absolutely magnificent but couldn't show...

Help! Essays are due!

Hiya guys, This week is another attempt at helping you gorgeous people to learn things through my mistakes. It is that time of the year and whether you've already given in essays or have some to give in, everyone will need help at some point. Please don't just take my word for it as I am only a first year university student and cannot help with content or structure . However, here are just a few points that I wish I'd known when I started doing essays and things that I do now that really help my essay writing process. Essay's, whether they be for a humanities or a science subject, have a core aim and that is too write about a specific topic to show your understanding and ability to write coherently and for a purpose so hopefully this can be partly useful to everyone. 1. Once you've chosen a question, step back and think about what it is asking Get the question and analyse it. What is the question word? Is it 'why, what, to what extent,' and figur...
