Focus: Food and University
Food is so important to your health and wellbeing but during exam season I was definitely guilty of eating a few too many snacks. This month also involved finishing off my dissertation which is worth 50% of my final year university grade!!!! My two mini aims for the end of the month of may were:
- Finish and hand in my dissertation
- Cook two new meals.
Favourite quote of the month: when life hands you lemons, ditch them and grab a latte.
On the 11th of May I had my last exam in the afternoon and then came back to my flat and went to see the new Avengers film Infinity war with two of my flatmates as a celebration for finishing exams ❤ It was so much fun because we got free popcorn and are all massive Marvel nerds 🙂
The Saturday started off with me going to a local cupcake shop called Bea of Bloomsbury which was so much fun and I go past it most days on my way to uni so it was nice to finally go in 🙂 I then bought some flowers from Sainsburys to brighten up my room ❤
I met my mum on the Sunday for some lunch and a little bit of shopping which was so nice because I hadn’t seen her in ages as I had been revising at my London flat 🙂
On the 15th of May I met my friend Hannah for dinner at a vegan restaurant called The Blacksmith and the Toffeemaker which was so lovely and then came back to my flat and had a movie night with two of my flatmates because I had recently bought The Greatest Showman DVD 🙂
On the 16th of May I met one of my friends who I met in first year in halls but hadn’t seen for ages for lunch and then in the evening went out with my flatmate Su to see The Phantom of the Opera!!!! It was such a good show and the scenery and costumes were incredible 🙂
On the 17th I went out for dinner with my two flatmates Poon and Su to a restaurant called Roti King which was so nice because it is malaysian and singaporean street food which I had never tried before but it was absolutely delicious 🙂
I woke up on the 18th and decided to make chocolate brownies because it is my Dad’s birthday on the 20th of May, after making the brownies my flat decided to take a flat photo because we did not have a flat photo yet despite living together for three years 🙂 I then decided to make a Thai fried prawn and pineapple rice dish as one of my two new meals which was so nice ❤
On the weekend of the 19th I went home for my dad’s birthday which was really fun because I surprised him by going home as he thought I had to stay in London to work 🙂 I got to see my dog which was really nice and the whole family went out for food, chilled and had a laugh 🙂
The day I came back to London I started work on my Dissertation and then decided to make chicken tacos which were so delicious and were my second new meal 🙂
Between the 22nd and the 29th I was mainly working on my dissertation which was really stressful and then finally gave it in on the 29th ❤
The last few days of May were spent going to GBK on the 30th and then making salmon and scrambled eggs on toast for lunch on the 31st and then Poon made Mac and Cheese for dinner on the 31st 🙂
Let me know in the comments what you guys got up to for the end of the month of May 🙂
