Today, I just completed two exams for uni so I thought I would reward myself by uploading the second part of my recent shopping adventures. This week will probably be the most I have ever blogged ever since making my first blog back in 2008/9.

Let's get on with the show.

[This post actually ran a lot longer than I originally planned it to, so I will be splitting it up into two parts. Sorry] 

This last month has been characterised by my shopping tendencies. I have shopped and shopped and it feels like that's all I've doing outside of uni. Some purchases have been ones that I have been thinking about for a long time while others were impulse buys.

One or two of them will be featured in my favourites post in a couple of days but I will probably do a quick run-through of it here on this post. So get ready for a massive (may be exaggerating here) spam of photos. The quality won't be spectacular since it's just my phone but who's looking at this for photo quality?

If you aren't able to tell by the photos below, it was a massive clothing and a tiny bit of beauty shopping kind of month. I just did an online order on ozsale, so when that comes in I will update this post. My next massive bout of spending will probably be a bedroom/home decor one as my room will be renovated/fixed so keep your head up about that in the near future.

 I'll start off with my non-fashion items.




This shirt was actually a purchase from my recent trip to Adelaide (ignore the wrinkles. It has been in a bag since I have gotten home). I have been loving the brand 'Tokito' recently and this shirt just screamed 'BUY ME!'. I really like the fit of it on me and I especially like the stud detail on the shoulder area. It's not over the top but gives the shirt a little bit of edge. And it also has a collar which I have been obsessed with lately.

I know this post is slightly overdue but it's sort of the only time I've had so far free to do a blog post. That and I got the urge to post something today. I'm easing back into uni after having a week off and it's starting to really feel like Autumn now in Sydney. With that, lets get into the content of the post.

2 weeks ago, I had a week off uni as it was the Easter break so to celebrate that, my family minus my dad, decided to fly down to Adelaide and spend some time with family there. I was originally born in Adelaide, located in South Australia, and moved to Sydney a couple of years later. Due to this, majority of my mum's side of family is still situated in Adelaide. It was a pretty fun filled 5 days in Adelaide with the constant stream of family visiting and just catching up with everyone. I really do miss my relatives in Adelaide and rarely do get to just relax and visit them.

There was a constant stream of food being served at all times, lots of laughter just catching up and it was nice as my siblings and I got acquainted with the younger cousins who we last saw when they were 1-2 years old and with some cousins, it was the first time seeing them. My favourite part of the trip had to be the bowling game that we played. There was a total of 12 of us and we decided to tag team which resulted in one of the best games of bowling that I had. It was fun poking fun at teams and us banding together to defeat my 2 cousins who were deemed to be the best.

I look back on the trip and it was really was a great trip and I can't wait to go back, especially since my aunts and I made plans for us to come back next year for my 21st.




Until next time, have a great day!

March sort of went by in a blur for me. I can't really remember what happened in this month exactly (shows you how forgetful I can be) but I think that was maybe partially due to so many things happening.

March marked the beginning of uni for me again. Getting up in the morning before 10am on a regular basis was quite difficult to do and will probably be difficult again after having a week off for the Easter break. My timetable this year is a bit heavier than what it was last year resulting in going to uni an extra day to fill it up. I have been enjoying the courses so far so I guess that's a good sign but still need to get my butt into gear if I want to get the WAM/GPA that I need by the end of my Bachelor to do what I want to do.

If you couldn't tell, uni has made me lazier and I was already lazy to begin with. I'm hoping to become more proactive but we shall see what the year has in store for me. I guess that's also why I decided to somewhat seriously blog again. To document what the year has given me and reflect back. Also, to make me less lazy.

For the favourites of this month, they haven't really changed from last month. Then again, I only had 2 last month but I have been consistently listening to Demi Lovato.

What I have really been into this month has to be mix CD's. Not the ones that others give you but making them myself to listen in the car. It's really interesting to me to see how my taste in music has changed over the years and I think it will be really interesting comparing a mix CD I made in March 2013 to one that I make in say 5 years time. Being able to listen to how my taste has evolved will really fascinate me.

I don't know if this is a favourite of mine but I really love my laptop.

I realised how much I use it especially during March as I did go back to uni. It literally accompanied me everywhere and made everything so much easier as I had all my coursework at a touch of button or a click away. If you haven't realised by the photo but I own a MacBook Pro. I have wanted one for about 9-10 years and I finally decided to get one last year. I first fell in love with it while watching 'Veronica Mars' and it was always a pipe dream for me. Like I always wanted it but never took the plunge and I never asked anyone to get me one because I felt like it was my dream to realise. Early last year I decided to get one as I had been working and had saved up quite a bit of money. So to reward myself for getting into the course that I wanted and not spending that much money on myself, I finally took the plunge and got my dream laptop and haven't looked back since. I love my laptop and it is referred to as my 'baby'. I know it's really superficial but my laptop to me is a symbol of everything that I have done so far. I started working when I was 14, worked my butt off at school, got into the uni and course that I wanted and I am still working. Everything that I gotten since I was 14 is due to my hard work except for my very first laptop which my parents got me as a gift for my achievements at school since about year 4. So my laptop to me symbolises my determination and tells me to never give up on what you want because it will happen someday. You just have to keep working at it.

I really don't know what else I really liked this month. I'm thinking of actually making solid categories so there will be a set number but who knows what will happen. There should be a new post coming up in a week as I just returned from a short holiday from Adelaide. So that should be something I guess but uni starts on Monday so I need to get back into that swing of things.

So until next time. Bye.
