So I did a little shopping...

So my student loan came in, and much to the dismay of the government and my parents, instead of spending it on books and stationary (which I've already bought) I decided to spend it on clothes. Whatever, I need to look good to go to uni, right? Here's what I bought: H&M, £19.99 River Island, £40 (these actually look SO much nicer without the tops rolled down!) Topshop, £45 I also got looooads of lovely soft knitwear from Primark but unfortunately they don't have a website so I can't show you :( but these were the main...

My Summer, In a Nutshell

So as you can see I haven't exactly been that active on here over the summer, so I suppose I should offer some sort of explanation.

It was absolutely gorgeous (although I think I lost a good percentage...

Having a minor crisis here

I am all of a sudden getting all panicky about my future and what career prospects are ahead of me. This has all be triggered by a recent blow to my boyfriend's life- getting made redundant. It's been so hard helping him to job hunt and I can just tell it's really getting him down and I can't help but freak out a little and think 'Ahh! I don't want this to happen to me when I come out of uni!'. I'd always just kinda presumed I'd walk out of university with a first straight into some £70k a year investment banking job, but obviously life is never that kind. I'm currently doing an economics degree in Cardiff university, so...

First thing I'm going to do is head to Cardiff to buy everything I see and eat something greasy and expensive. I may not be able to carry it all, like seriously, there's going to be a lot. I plan on doing some sort of haul post/video so stay tuned for that, it'll be a big one. Here's a few things I plan on picking up...
