[Chatter] Re: Exams

Hi everyone! If you're doing A-Level mocks or modular university exams, then exam weeks are upon us and I wish you all luck! Some of you have probably even finished now so I hope they all went well. My own exams start just as this post goes up and end on Friday. Exams have never…

Handmade Winter Knits

After a long while, I have found my knitted accessories to be of some use. On top of that, I am knitting again! I have yarn that I want to use up! YAY. For the first time in years, we had a wave of heavy snow. Now, just in case you live in Canada or…

Reflection: First Term at University

Hi everyone! So, as I type, Christmas is approaching really fast and so are my January exams (!!) and as this post goes up it will literally be the last day of term. I know it is often said, but this term flew by crazy fast. I can't quite believe my course started two and…

My Experience at G-Dragon’s ‘Act III: MOTTE’ Tour in Birmingham

I may have recounted this story a number of times, but I got into K-pop because a family friend spent her gap year in Korea and came back with a K-pop mix on a CD, full of Bigbang and SHINee's old hits and Lee Hyori's U Go Girl. We played it when her mom picked…

[Chat] Getting Ready for School/ University/ Whatever EEEEP

Hi everyone! So, as I mentioned in my last update, I got into University! (Cue cheers and party poppers) I was feeling ecstatic, then quite ambivalent about it when I first found out. Anyway, I'm excited at the moment. I am going to a university close to home, whilst my brother also got in to…

Two Years of Twenty Swans!

This blog survived another year! That's pretty cool, if I do say so myself. I have followed many a blog that has just disappeared after a few good posts. More than that,  I am proud to have just stuck to putting things up even without a schedule or promoting my posts on social media properly.…

The Gap Year Diary: Aug/Sep 2016

Well, for one, I admit that this series is just going to be my regular life, but with a bit more focus on what I'm doing education wise extra things this year. Oh wait, that's what I normally do anyway, isn't it? Well, it got a fancier title! In this post (I ramble a lot these days):…

Really Long Review: Bourjois Rouge Edition Velvet Liquid Lipsticks

In this post: Finally, a makeup review! AN ACTUAL REVIEW of price, packaging, texture, wear... Good Lard. A summary so you can skip about 95% of  this post. Well, it has been a while since I did one of these. My original plan was to wait for a sunny summer day in which I was free,…

Reflection: Results Days

I'm not quite sure how to start this post. It's been strange. As of the morning of Thursday 18th August, my future is quite 'up-in-the-air' but at the same time I've had to think a lot. UCAS' Clearing system was always an option. I don't think I'm close minded towards other universities, but going through…

Needed: A Catch Up.

Hello, internet acquaintances! As I type it has been a number of months since I last made a post. I did have posts lined up that never got past the posting line, and I say this a lot and you all know what's up, but soz. Today I'm gonna ramble about: exams and post-exams makeup…
