Sussex Downs

Monday, 17 November 2014

There's a great thing about being at Sussex University. It isn't until you live in a place that you can explore all the little and big things they can offer. If I'm honest, one of the reasons I came here was that every year they place a massive christmas tree in the Library Square, this enticed me, A LOT. Sad, I know. But the campus it self is beautiful as well. I didn't even know we were so close to Brighton, I didn't know what Brighton was known for until I got here.
I found out that apart from London, it has the most alcoholic spots in one area. This would explain the incredible night life we have the chance to enjoy, every night is a party night, well a potential party night.
On the other side of things is the beautiful countryside of Sussex. Over the weekend I had a little time to explore, do some hiking, and find some time for myself. With Autumn coming to an end, I wanted to hike through and just get some fresh air.
It's so nice to get away from the busy streets of brighton, the busy roads and people walking everywhere in town. Especially after a night out, it makes you feel refreshed.

Oh hey foot shot, probably not the best shoes to wear on the hike when it looks like it is about to rain.

It looks a whole lot drier than it actually was, but the muddy route made it slightly more fun.



People along these tracks are also super friendly, I'm not sure whether it's because there is a small connection that you are all doing the same thing, but people are just more open and friendly in spaces like this.

Blogtober #16: Fall Fashion
Currently my fall fashion pieces are very simple.
Beneath is a compilation of pieces that I wear constantly.
 I can't wait for it to get even colder so it is actually acceptable to wear this scarf everyday.
 I have 4 pairs of Leigh Jeans which I just wear over and over again. I can't get enough. So comfortable.
 Timberlands because the weather in Brighton has just been awful recently, and it makes me appear taller so bonus!
My coat for this autumn/winter season from Zara. So big, so warm, kind of drowns my 5'2 body but I love it nonetheless, for the past few years I have been trying to find a minimal coat that I love, and I think I found it this year!

Blogtober #6 10 Things You'd Tell Yourself When You Started Blogging
1. Keep to it, do it everyday if you want.
2. It does not matter who is reading it, don't hide your feelings because certain people are reading it.
3. Don't worry if your friends think you're crazy, so be it, just because they cannot be bothered.
4. More pictures, you bought a camera for a reason, so use it!
5. Why don't you learn web design?
6. That background sure is ugly, it doesn't matter that he made it for you, you can change it if you want.
7. Don't always blog your unhappy feelings, you are happy most of the time.
8. It's also okay if you don't feel like blogging, don't force yourself to pump them out.
9. Comment and like others, you enjoy them so why don't you comment?
10. Take time to read over your mistakes. 

Blogtober #2

Okay, so I have not exactly been keeping up with Blogtober, due to University commitments. I have been so busy just doing some reading, trying to get back into schedule as well as preparing for the future and trying my hand at a couple of new things, at the same time TRYING to stay social and see my friends and family. Here I am updating all in one. So here is #2. 
Dream job when you were little/What is it now?
]I was only a little girl, and all little girls did were dream right? I was always one of those that wanted to a singer, a little dancer or in a dance group. I was the S Club 7 generation that wanted to be a part of the S Club Juniors. Me and my cousins used to dress up in the same outfits and did little performances for our parents, forcing them to watch us dance and sing badly. 
When you grow up you soon realise to become one of these you actually need to have talent, and a little bit of passion and actually wanting to be in the spotlight.

As I have grown up these dreams have changed dramatically. First of all I hate being in the spotlight, so get me behind the curtains as quickly as possible. At the moment I do not have a dream job, there is no job which is that enticing to me that I believe that it is my "dream". Although becoming a full time blogger would be extremely fun and exciting as I enjoy travelling a lot, so travelling blogging, meeting new people would be a dream job I guess. 
What was your dream job and what is it now?
It is funny how much your personality changes as you grow up, and with personality changes come a change of dreams and aspirations too. 

Blogtober #1

Wednesday, 1 October 2014

The idea is from www.heleneinbetween.com and she has begun a month of blogging everyday. A different theme created for everyday. The 1st on the list for Day 1 is "If you'd won the lottery you'd"
So to begin, If I were to win the lottery I think I would invest 90% of it, only because I am young. I can do what I can now with very little money. I can travel the world and stay at hostels, no matter how much money I have, to travel to world it is always better to see it through places where you wouldn't want to stay. If you were in a hotel, with a lovely pool, hot tub, restaurants selling gourmet food you may as well have stayed at home. If you are to see another country, see it in all its glory spend as little money as possible staying in a sub par hotel/hostel and only go home when you need that 8hrs sleep. So as I am travelling spending that little amount of money I will be making money at the same time. That is the beauty of investment. I have been raised in a chinese household, don't blame me, they love to talk about money and investment. 
So that is basically it, travel and invest. 

If anybody sees this please give it a go, I would really like to delve into peoples minds and see what they would do once they have won the lottery.
