Uni so far ?

Uni so far?

I didn't really know what to call this post so excuse the title, I guess I just want to write about what I think of uni so far and how I am finding it. So if you're interested carry on reading!

So, I moved into uni mid September, I  live in a flat with five other people- two girls and three boys (if anyone wanted the deets), on campus accommodation. I like to think I am an independent person, I can cook, do the laundry, do general cleaning so I guess practically it wasn't really an issue. However emotionally I didn't find it too easy, to be fair I don't think a lot of people do and it is fair to say I was very homesick for the first week. Where my uni is located isn't exactly the hustle and bustle of London and that was also a massive change for me because that's what I've been used to for the past 19 years. 

Now on to the education side of it, I am studying financial mathematics and trust me it is HARD, well I find it quite challenging. The teaching style is also something to get used to because obviously it is nothing like school. My lecturers- some are great and some not so much, and that's all I'm going to say. I'm not a massive fan of my timetable, with most of my lectures on a Friday out of all days, but I guess you can't have it all?

Lastly, socially, I have met a lot of amazing people over the last few weeks! My flat mates are all so lovely, we aren't as close as some but that's okay. I would say I am closer to the people on my course and I am so grateful for great course mates. I have been to a couple of events and they were enjoyable to say the least, it's just lovely to meet so many new people from all kind of backgrounds, that's one thing I love about uni!

Anyway, I think I'll leave it here. This post was more for me to write down my thoughts about uni rather than for 'entertainment' purposes, but if you did enjoy reading that's a bonus!

Thank you so much for taking the time to read!

Berlin Day 3

Berlin Day 3

Today we did some more sightseeing shenanigans and here's what I put together!

You either love it you hate it and most people hated my makeup, but I loved it! So many different colours in this world, and the only ones that the people around me like is gold and brown. Maybe the blue isn't for my eye colour it I still liked how vibrant and fun it was. Not everyday gold ?

Eyes: Makeup addiction flaming love palette

Lips: MAC sophisto lustre 

Top: Camden Market

Jeans: H&M

Jacket: Boohoo

Location:  Ploözensee Memorial Centre- 

 

We went on a free tour around Berlin today, I would highly highly recommend this, I mean it's free !

It's a two and half hour walking tour and the guide takes you to the major sites and also gives you a little bit of background knowledge as well; in our case he covered 800 years of history.

Obviously if you don't like walking there is the bus option but I love walking so I preferred this.

All the locations I visited can be found on the above website even though I haven't uploaded photos of all the locations.

So in conclusion, I really like Berlin it has such a different vibe to London. I will for sure be coming again because I don't think 3 days is enough, there is so much more I want to see! 

Tomorrow I will be travelling to another part of Germang so watch this space!

Thank you so much for taking the time to read and I hoped you enjoyed the pictures!

Airport X Berlin Day 1

Berlin Day 1

 

I am in Berlin! It was a very hectic way here, getting up at 2 am for a flight that was going to be 4 hours delayed wasn't my cup of tea. We didn't do much sightseeing today but here is what we did do!

 

Food (top left): Currywurst from a street stall, it was nice but it wasn't AMAZING.

Location: Emporor William Memorial Church.

Breakfast: Frankie and Benny's; the blueberry pancakes are the bomb.com !

 

Location (top left): Republic Square 

Location( top right): Regierungsviertel (not long at all)

Location (bottom): Holocaust Memorial

Top: Primark

Leggings: Marks and Spencer

Jacket: Boohoo

Bag: Accesorize 

I wasn't wearing any makeup, however I did spray The Bodyshop vitamin E face mist. I used this Norway as well, it's so so good as a quick pick me up and also as a setting spray. It keeps me hydrated especially because I have quite dry skin and gives my makeup a dewy finish. I would really recommend this stuff if you have the same problems as me!

Thank you so much for taking the time to read and I hoped you enjoyed the photos!
