University Files: How to stay organised
21 January 2016
I for one feel like I need to take my own advice here. I am currently in my final term of my degree and staying on top of all the deadlines, tutorials, lecturers, paying bills, seminars can be hard and that is just for university. But don't worry your little rockers because I am here to help you sort out your life one baby step at a time. *Takes your hand and leads you into the realm of adulthood.
First things first.
1. PAY YOUR GOD DAMN BILLS
To be very clear with you. Once you have finished your three years (or more or less), those bills do not magically disappear. Considering you will be paying off your student loan till you die. It's best to get it out the way.
2. Get yourself a diary.
At school I did not care for a diary, it was just something that you had to have on you so that you don't get in trouble with the teachers. But now my diary is always with me. (It's practically strapped to my hip). Otherwise you will become a headless chicken.
3. Get a good night sleep.
I know that this sounds really stupid, but your body needs time to rest and recuperate. If you are organised most of the time, you will not need to be sleeping till you see the sun come up. P.S Don't sleep on public transport (this is really a note to self).
4. Prepare your wardrobe.
It can be tiresome to even think about the next day and the sheer worry of how much you have to do. If you pick out what to wear the night before you will save you a lot of time. Trust me. I once spent 20 mins looking for a sock.
5. Give yourself a break every once in a while.
Remember you are still human and not a robot. Don't sit in your room and be envious of all the first years walking into town. Sometimes third years need a break too! *Weeps in corner* Go out. Just don't make it a too regular thingGlass of wine anyone?!
Stay strong it will all be worth it in the end

My mini perfume collection
8 January 2016
First post of the year and we are talking perfumes people.
I have only recently got into scents and perfumes. I think it has been a case of getting older and just generally wanting to smell nice when I walk into a room. Not long ago I got Chloé Eau de parfum for my birthday (I was banging on about for ages) and I am truly grateful because it does not disappoint. When I spray it I am very careful to not to waste it because I love it that much, there is a definite sense of freshness and with a base notes of sandalwood and hints of white rose, which makes it is perfect for the everyday wear.
I previously had Daisy Dot by Marc Jacobs so you can tell that I'm a fan of the latest Daisy perfumes. I received Daisy Dream by Marc Jacob, which is part of the Daisy collection. With top notes like blackberry and grapefruit, and base notes of Jasmine (which has to be one of my favourite scents). It is quite a light and floral. I can definitely claim this as a winner.
Hopefully this year my collection grows, there are some perfumes that I have already got my eye on.
