A Coffee Break at London St. Pancras

This is going in the Starbucks Break category even though it isn't Starbucks because it's still a break with coffee. Wish it was a white chocolate mocha though. So after a lovely Easter break, I'm on my way back to Leicester for the last time this academic year. As soon as my last exam is …

Another Starbucks Break.

This may become the standard for my blog posts I won't lie. Like I may have to make a whole category just for my Starbucks break. But i promise these won't be the only posts from now on. Hopefully, because these are trash. I forgot my keys today? What an interesting start Amy, do tell me …

Loneliness and University

When you first head off to uni you're ready for a fresh start and to make new friends like everyone else, but what doesn't seem to cross your mind is what if you don't have that new friendship group that makes you look forward to returning after every break. When I first arrived I thought …

Assertiveness vs. Aggression

So I've been talking to a counsellor about finding the balance between assertiveness, aggression and passiveness. My anxiety makes me very very unbalanced in this, to the point where I'm either too passive and just stay quiet in situations that make me feel uncomfortable and upset and so on, or I'm get so panicky and …

First Year

As of yesterday morning, when I walked out of my last exam, my first year at university was over. These past 9 months have literally flown by, it's insane how quickly it's gone. I just can't wait to get back home now though, because even though i has gone quick, it's still easy to feel …

This is for my Dad

So I did three posts about the three most important women in my life, but I missed someone out and it wasn't right of me to do so. And I'm sorry to say that I didn't realise this until I spoke to him. Writing this, I am worried that it's not going to have the …

This Is For My Best Friend

Okay so for Vinnie's post, I'm gonna try and hold it together by listening to our songs. We don't have but one, we have but many. However, this may just fuel my tears and I'll be a sobbing mess singing along to Backstreet Boys. I'd like to apologise to my flatmates the strangled cat whining …

This Is For My Sister

Okay so after posting about my mum last night I thought it would be cute to do a mini-series of posts to do with the three closest people I hold onto in life. First was my mum, second is my sister and third is obviously gonna be my best friend. Ella Crumpton is my little …

This Is For My Mum

Julie Crumpton is my mother and I couldn't have asked for anyone better to raise me. She is a rock, she is the strongest woman I know and she has gone through so much and is still fighting. She sacrifices her life for her family she cares for everyone and is not appreciated like she …

“You uni students have an easy life”.

Okay so today some guy on the wonderful app Tinder decided to tell me that uni students have "an easy life". See below for the full statement. 🙂 You know what annoyed me more than anything about that message? "Haha cute". Not only was he disregarding the fact that university is stressful, he decided to be patronising …
