Below is the beginning of a short piece of fiction I wrote as part of my university Masters degree. I thought it would be cool to share sections of it on the blog weekly, as a sort of serial piece. Let me know what you think of it! Hope everyone has a great Friday! Natasha … More Naked: Part One
University has probably been a huge part of your life for the last three years. For me, it’s been a part of my life for the last five. Yep, five. With a year abroad and a Masters, I held tightly onto my studentship for a very, veerrrryyyy long time. Too long, according to some. But … More You’ve finished university, so what now?
Oh, hey there guys, my glorious little readers you! Long-time no speak. How’ve you been? Done anything fun and exciting since the last time we talked? OOO, what’s that?

Nothing beats someone opening-up on their blog to people they probably will never meet and who may even judge them … More It’s Nice to Meet You
At 23 years old I am ashamed to admit that I am never really ever home alone. I feel that this is a sort of weird thing to admit, but bear with me. Both Brad and I are students, and we live together, so there are only a couple of hours dotted throughout the week … More Home Alone and Scared of the Future
It’s getting to that time of year again where all the streets are turning PINK. Cherry blossom, blossom, sakura, whatever you wanna call it brightens any grey day. Even here in Canterbury, it really brings out the beauty of the graffiti. It turns any drab street into a place for all those insta photos. It’s … More Hanami
When it comes to Halloween my friends will be the first to tell you that I am up for the whole caboodle. I mean, I’ll dress up, make-up and stuff myself silly with candy. Now, that’s all good and fun, and to be fair I’m up for that any day of the year, but when … More 5 Nostalgic Halloween Films
