What I did this month

October has left just as quickly as it arrived. Now almost 2 months into my BTC I am eagerly awaiting my exam dates. I intend on writing a whole post on the Bar Course and how I have found it so far because damn that has been stressful to say the least!           As someone who has found it extremely difficult...

Might just become a food blogger and ditch the whole barrister thing. 1. Giggling Squid 2. Konak 3. Haute Dolci 4. Boo Burger 5. Toro's Steakhouse 6. An Najeeb Instagram | Twitter | BlogLovin'  ...

September so far

This month has been hectic to say the least but also one of the best! Here are a few photos from the past few weeks. I ate out a little more than I probably should have, bought my first car, and started the Bar Training Course. The Bar Course has been more intense than I originally anticipated. Unlike undergraduate law there was no 'introduction...

How I prepared for the BCAT & passed!

 As some of you may know I start the BTC, the Bar Training Course, this month. And for any aspiring barristers you are more than familiar with the several things you must do before commencing the course.

Baking

Vegan banana bread

For someone who's never baked bread before because they were simply bored I think it turned out pretty great. Oh and it tasted good too. The recipe can be found on Google but I have added a few things and taken a few things out too. You will need: + 3 bananas + 75ml vegetable or sunflower oil + 100g brown sugar +...

Gold galore

Amidst the current pandemic I have photographed some of my favourite pieces featuring different metals, stones and textures. Jewellery pieces can be more than just pieces of pretty metal linked together. Every time I go abroad I make it my mission to purchase a piece of jewellery that reminds me of the streets I once walked across, the museums I visited and the...

Taking control, well attempting to...

Nobody likes uncertainty, the unknown, and not being able to exert control over simple aspects of life. I think other final year students at University can agree that this whole experience has been incredibly weird from start to finish. From having strikes in semester one to more strikes in semester two followed by everything being cut short drastically and just the thought of...

Vienna | #BBTRAVELS20

This was a last minute trip to Vienna with my siblings. I underestimated how cold it was going to be, it was snowing at one point, and stupidly I only packed one sweatshirt and a blazer. We spent our time exploring the streets of central Vienna, the Hofburg palace and the Austrian National Library. Here's a few photos from my little trip to Vienna....
