You're Never Gonna Bring Me Down, Gonna Keep On Dancing Till The Sun Comes Out

.1. I can't believe it's December... genuinely don't know where this year has gone and in particular my time at uni! I've had a little break from blogging... i've not had too much time on my hands and i've had a lot going on in the past few weeks so I thought i'd let blogging take a back seat for the first time in a while! I want to make an effort this month and actually publish a few posts, I like blogging and it's about time I started enjoying it again! In two weeks i'll be at home getting ready for Christmas with my family which I can't wait for. To be honest it's the fact I won't have to do my own washing or worry about what i'm going to eat that i'm looking forward to the most, as well as being surrounded by people that make me happy. I have a tiny family so Christmas is quite quiet but I think I prefer it that way :) I'm also looking forward to spending lots of time with my friends who I haven't seen in forever thanks to uni! Recent events have meant we've seen each other quite a few times but they weren't for the happiest of reasons.

.2. I've just got back from a crazy little weekend in Leeds for a reunion with a few friends. We went to the German Christmas Market yesterday which got me feeling festive and then had a night out which I can't really remember! I definitely need to get myself back to Leeds for a little shopping spree - the shops here just aren't good enough! I also finally got myself a Starbucks Gingerbread Latte which was perfection, especially as it's been so cold recently - i'm hoping it won't snow too much as i've got a few nights out planned soon!

.3. Since getting to uni i've started to like fashion a lot more and i've just treated myself to a few things from Ark. I went in their shop in Leeds and wanted to buy everything!  I got my mark back for my first uni test and did a lot better than I expected I thought it seemed like a good enough excuse!

♥ of the week: Lush Gingerbread House Tin - I wanted this last year and didn't get it so i'm really glad it's back!
