BEDN- Friday night in

Okay, so this is a day late and I'm very sorry but that does mean you all get two blog posts today!

Most nights are nights in for me now, we're in the middle of nowhere so indulging myself while staying in is something I'm getting used to. Here's how I do it.

Have a bath

This sounds proper cheesy but there's nothing I love more than relaxing in a warm bubble bath with some music on and just forgetting about all responsibility, even for just half an hour.

Catch up on TV shows

I'm a little obsessed with #zax
There's not much time for TV so we occasionally like to take and evening to shut out the rest of the world and catch up with Russel Howard's Good News, Casualty or if I'm in the mood for something cheesy, say yes to the dress. I've been known to combine this is having a bath. Also, I'm far too invested in Casualty at the moment, Zax are my top priority on a Saturday night, they have to get back together (I probably need to get out more)

BEDN- Photography (Autumn days)

Remember that song from primary school?

"Autumn days when the grass is jeweled and the silk inside a chestnut shell
Jet planes meeting in the air to be refueled, all these things I love so wellSo I must forget, no I must forget, to say a great big thank you no I must forget."

Well anyway, Autumn is here and it is beautiful 


Now Nico gets to help us pick up leaves as well as poop

Three months of farm life

Yup, it's been three months since Richard and I packed our bags and traded endless naps for early starts and lots of poop! Farm life has changed us already.

Learning to drive the little tractor was a little scary but now it's fine!

BEDN- Food glorious food!

Lets take a moment to talk about everyone's favourite subject, food. More specifically Cake. While I'm usually more of a savoury girl (I do love a cheese board) I have a soft spot for cake.

I'm not going to lie to anyone, I'm an emotional eater. When I'm stressed I eat very little but if I'm feeling down cake and ice cream help to cheer me up. This definitely became most apparently durning my first year of uni. Food was my comfort when I missed home. I'd cook 'homely' food and the retreat to my room with cake, Ben and Jerry's and Bridget Jones. 

Operation cheer up Laura.

BEDN- Love Monday's

I suppose most people struggle with Monday's because they've just had the most awesome weekend. Well here we work weekends so Monday is just another day so I don't have any issues with it. The best thing about Monday's is that it's the day before Tuesday which is our day off. So really, Monday is our Friday and Wednesday is our Monday.

So this post should be called Wednesday love. 

A day off in Prague is great but horses are better.

BEDN- An introduction.

So this November I will be taking the blog every day in November challenge run by Elizabeth from Rosalilium , I did a similar challenge in May 2012 and really enjoyed it so I think it's about time I did it again. I hope you'll all enjoy it, there are a few titles that I'm a little unsure about but so many in really excited to write.



Hope you enjoy the ride!

Keep it scrimpy,
Laura.

My 10 biggest mistakes of student living

Having lived out the 'proper' studenty bit of my time at uni I feel like should pass on some advice so here are my 10 biggest mistakes of student living. 

10 - Not making the most of the clubs and societies

I was so lucky at Bangor to experience free student clubs and societies so why the hell did I never try scuba diving!? I'm kicking myself now. 

9 - Not making the most of my surroundings

Studio Klang Headphone review and discount code*

So I've been in the Czech Republic for nearly two months now and I have to admit there are a few things that I brought with me that I haven't even looked at yet and probably never will. However there are also a few items that I am so glad that I have with me. One being my headphones.

Studio Klang, a Swedish company contacted me before I came out asking if I would like to try out their 'Earphones'. Now I'm the kind of girl who goes through like 3 pairs of poundland headphones a week. They would get thrown into the bottom of my bag and quickly broken, or lost forever. So I was toying with the idea of splashing out on some quality ones anyway, I mean they don't have a poundland here!
