Reflecting back on my 'Goals for September' blog post, I achieved a lot of what I wanted to do. The only one of my goals I slacked on was working out (which to be fair, I knew I wouldn't do that much of).
I thought I would write one of these lists for every month, because if I publish somewhere what I'd like to achieve, I have more of a reason to strive to complete them.

Although I am 20, and the legal age is 17, I didn't really start to learn to drive until this August. This was because of a few things, like being in college every day really late, to being nervous as I'm not very spatially aware.
Earlier this year, my uncle forced me to book a lesson in Bristol. So I did, and since have done 5 others. Although not a huge city, learning to drive in Bristol is a lot harder than learning in a little town in North Wales, however, I think it's good to push myself to do it.

A few months ago I saw FabulousHannah post a photo of this palette on her snapchat and since have been waiting to get my hands on it! Retailing at £9.99 in Superdrug, this palette is one that so many people have been trying to get hold of.
With the academic year just about to start, I thought I would look back and reflect on the ten most important things I wish I knew as a fresher.
You will spend the majority of the evening queuing!
During freshers, everyone is going out to the clubs, especially when there is a themed party night. Unless you have queue skipping tickets, make sure you get to there just before 12 or otherwise you will probably spend more time queuing than dancing!
Always lock your bedroom door when you go away!
I was one of the fortunate ones when it comes to this. However, my flatmates didn't get off so easily. Harry's room was filled with balloons (some even contained confetti!), Nate's room was completely covered in post it notes, and Jack - poor Jack - his contents of his room was moved all across the city.
Two weeks ago I wrote a post about 20 things the TV show Friends taught me. I actually really enjoyed putting that list together (it gave me an excuse to rewatch episodes), so I thought I would do more of them with different shows.
So, here is 20 things Gilmore Girls taught me....
It's okay to wallow
When bad things happen, it is absolutely acceptable to wallow in your bed and eat junk food. Whether break up, bad grades, or a rejection letter, taking Lorelai's advice will always make you feel better.
With Fresher's week just around the corner, I though I would write a quick list on what I believe are the most important things to do when it's your Freshers!
Nap, nap, nap!
I know you may want to get up and explore the new town or city you are living in, but if you're planning on going to as many events as possible, wait until Fresher's is over. Going out every night for a week is tiring, especially getting back in around 4am, and everyone knows you don't go to sleep as soon as you get in! And you won't be missing out because everyone else will be napping too!
Not only do I write a blog, but I also love reading and keeping up to date with other people's blogs. Today I thought I would compile a list of some of my favourite bloggers at the moment.

I found Jess through YouTube over a year ago and was a big fan of her weekly vlogs she started in September. It was only in April/May time that I realised she also had a blog, and then I became an avid reader of it. The reason I love Jess' content so much is due to her down to earth personality and how she makes content that is relevant to her life and not just for her followers.
