Placements are often the most difficult part of being a student nurse. Long hours as part of a team that you will barely get to know before moving on to your next university block or placement, in an unfamiliar environment where you couldn't find the bladder scanner if someone's life depended on it.

At the end of my gap year when I dropped out of university and took a year out, I decided to treat myself with a trip to Berlin. I found cheap flights from Dublin with RyanAir, and booked a private room in the Sunflower Hostel, as I like the safety of my own space when... Continue Reading →
Since moving to London, I've been to two beauty festivals. I attended "Superdrug Presents" in Shoreditch, London, last month, and the "Glamour Beauty Festival" over the weekend. Now I'm spilling the tea for my readers. Superdrug Presents was overall a really good experience. While there were queues for pretty much everything, there were plenty of... Continue Reading →

Fundraising Our... Continue Reading →
Anyone who follows me on Twitter or Instagram will probably know I've been back and forth to London several times in the last month for university interviews. Thanks to the awkwardness of flight times from Belfast, I stayed at least one night each time, and as a result I had plenty of free time! It... Continue Reading →
Last weekend I headed to Glasgow for a solo weekend trip and a much-needed break from my hometown of Belfast. The flight was only around 35 minutes long, so Glasgow seemed like a great choice for a short city break since I can't take any time off work at the moment. I left my house... Continue Reading →
For anyone who's been lucky enough to avoid the internet drama that spawned from Tess Holliday's cover shoot for Cosmopolitan magazine, thank your lucky stars.
