My Trip into Shoreditch

Hiya Guys,

So, this weekend I ventured into the wider area of London and went to Shoreditch with some of my friends. My travels started with a trip underground, a walk to a cereal cafe, a trip to a Jewish bakery and then an adventure to find a wall. Sounds interesting? Well I'll give you a short insight into my day!

The Cereal Killer Cafe in Shoreditch is extremely tiny and if you didn't know about it and what it looked like, you would've missed it. It is located on the amazing and famous Brick Lane along with hundreds of weird and wonderful shops as well as beautiful smelling food (especially during Sunday Market Day).


The cafe is extremely hipster and when you walk in, the first thing that you see is the lines and lines of cereal boxes on the furthest wall filled with things from typical weetabix to cinnabons. As we walked to downstairs, it felt like we were stepping into the 1960s with video tapes and old boyband posters scattered. None of it worked together but for some reason it all just felt right.

After we sat down, we were stuck with the hugest task ever. It beat having to find an alternate way to get too Shoreditch and walking down roads of food whilst having the will power to not buy anything. This task was choosing the cereal. There were over 300 types of cereal and this didn't include the amazing 'cereal cocktails' where they put together cereal, toppings and extra's (it was very flexible) and allowed you to choose from less but get more.

Eventually I chose a toffee type cocktail with a culmination of cereal, banana's, cream and toffee bits which was literally heaven. You could tell that they really put thought into it because, although my ingredients went together nicely, my friend's seemed so odd but worked together well. It included things like party rings, twinkies and hundreds of thousands. Literally there is something for everyone and that includes people who don't like plain milk because you can have different types of milk and coffee etc.


We then ventured into Shoreditch high street because a certain 5sos fangirl (me) wanted to visit a certain wall that the band made for there upcoming album (see my previous post for a review). Apart from the annoying vandalism by some people, the wall was absolutely beautiful and basically represented the new broken scene very well.


So my sum up is, if you are ever in Shoreditch, visit the Cereal Killer cafe and the 5SOS wall, and definitely check out some of the smaller shops and bakeries. It may take a day to really take everything in but it is worth it! Let me know if you've been to either and drop me a comment if you enjoyed it!

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

Introducing me!

Hiya guys,  This is my first ever blog post, I was going to say of the year, but it is actually my first one ever! I think it is necessary to introduce myself to all you beautiful people.  My name is Sonal Lad and I am a below average 18 year old girl from England!  I started this blog because I have always been interesting in writing to a mass audience and I believe that this could be the starting point of trying to get into journalism. I also love the idea of being able to interact with people from all over the world on issues that are dear to my heart!  I think as time goes on, you will get to know me a lot more and hopefully I get to know all of you guys a lot better! That's all for now my dears, See you soon xx

Fresher's Ball in my 2nd Year

Hiya guys, I'm currently writing this blog post after 3 mental days which included; going to the Fresher's ball as a 2nd year (that's the topic of today), turning 20 and bringing my Mancunian friends to the big city. The latter two are pretty much irrelevant for today's post but I mean they all sort of blend together I think. The Fresher's Ball is done at pretty much every university in England and is a way for first year's to end their 'relaxation' period and get ready for the real work. I missed last year's because I went home for my sisters birthday so I was even more determined to go this and have an epic time. Also, the fact that it was the day before my 20th Birthday seemed like fate because why wouldn't I want to start my birthday with my friends dancing like we were 1st years and drunk - although I was sober the entire night. The Ball was on the university campus and seemed less formal and more like an awesome club night ba...

Strictly Top 5 - Claudia and AJ

Hiya guys, The Strictly tour has been over for a while but my brain hasn't wrapped itself around the fact that I have to wait until September for it too start again. But, these Strictly posts are going to keep coming until I've maybe done one for every bit of Strictly possible. If you follow me on any of my social media, or have followed my last few posts, you'll know that Claudia Fragapane and AJ Pritchard were one of my favourite couples in the show and I was gutted that they didn't make it to the final. It wasn't just because they were amazing together and danced amazingly, I think it helped that they are pretty similar age as me (Claudia is 19, I'm 20 and AJ is 22) so I liked seeing some younger people dancing! I know that I put some of their dances in my other top 5's, but I'm going to do one anyway because most of their dances were phenomenal . 1.
