Cardiff Adventures.

This week I went to Cardiff for a couple of days to stay with one of my best friends. We always have so much fun when we get together and this time was no different!

I arrived on the Monday and after a quick pub dinner we went straight out to GLAM nightclub which was hysterical. For some reason we got given VIP wristbands and were let in for free and throughout the night they kept handing out cakes, sweets and CDs! We had such a great time dancing that we didn't want to leave...

After bacon sandwiches the next morning we set off into the city to do a spot of shopping (which I'll do a different blog post on) and then went out for a lovely lunch/dinner at Wagamamas!

We shared the chicken and prawn Pad Thai and the chicken Katsu Curry - both were delicious...

On my last day just before I got the train home we found a cute little restaurant called Cittas and had the most amazing Italian food! It was all freshly made to order and I would definitely recommend eating there if you are ever in Cardiff.

It really enjoyed going to Cardiff for the first time, despite the fact that after wondering why the train went through the longest tunnel I'd ever been in, I was informed that it was because the train was going under the sea!

Cocktail Celebrations.

I've finished my exams!
As a celebration of the end of first year and to mark the official beginning of summer, I went to a pub called The Imperial (or The Impy) with a few of my course friends.
We had celebratory pitchers of cocktails and enjoyed a lovely afternoon in their orangery!

The cocktails were all such beautiful colours and I especially loved the Blue Lagoon... which tasted exactly as it looked - blue!

It hasn't really sunk in yet that my summer has now started and I no longer have to sit in my room revising or working! I can't wait to do lots of fun things with my friends and make the most of my ridiculously long summer! Bring on the BBQs and Pimms...

Snazzy Stationery.

Nothing excites me more than getting new stationery at the beginning of a school/university year.

Now I'm in exam period this excitement for stationery has returned as I spend the majority of my days staring blankly at my desk and there is nothing like bright stationery to cheer you up!

These are three items that I particularly love:

1) My pink highlighter - there's something about it being pink that makes it much more exciting than say a yellow highlighter, but maybe that's just me...

2) My little sticky labels - I love these for dividing notes or marking something I want to go back to later, the fact they are multicoloured makes for a lot of fun too!

3) My diary - I don't know what I would do without this! It organises my lectures, my revision, my social life... everything.
