Last Week

Wednesday 24 January 2018











I feel like I’m continually walking past Sandro Paris stores at the moment. Maybe it’s the route I’m taking to get to university but it’s like these trainers are following me. There was even a photo of a pair in the Evening Standard magazine last week - maybe it’s a sign.

Anyway, I thought I’d talk about my week as that’s easier than trying to break it into smaller posts right now. 

I finally got around to listening to The Group Chat's first podcast on Soundcloud last Monday. This was something that Emily Oberg had been sharing on her Twitter and Instagram; I thought I wouldn't be able to listen to as it was originally only available on Tidal but I was so glad to see the first episode uploaded to Soundcloud. Oberg is doing the podcast with her two friends Speedy Morman and Brandon “Jinx” Jenkins (he's also in Push Magazine’s recent issue if you haven't seen it - worth picking up) and the Soundcloud bio describes it as "the real life version of their text group chat". I’m all for podcasts at the moment and I just had it on in the background whilst I did some work. 


I went to Borough Market on Thursday after walking from Bank? No, I walked from Liverpool Street station which was really nice. I was absolutely starving and a bit worried I was going to get caught in the rain. However, I was able to pick up a bratwurst with sauerkraut and ketchup for £5.50 when I eventually arrived and it was delicious. I also bought a red velvet cupcake which was gluten free and wheat free for £3. It has to be one of the best cakes I've had recently!

Other exciting information:
1. Liberty’s sells cacti - where doesn’t sell cacti? the temptation to buy more is real 
2. I’ve changed all my jewellery from silver to gold but I’m going to do a post about that next! 
3. I visited the London Graphics Centre in Covent Garden for the first time. As someone who has been an art student for so long, I’m actually disappointed with myself that I’ve only just discovered this place
4. I downloaded an app called Best Coffee (it’s free) which works by using location services to tell you about coffee shops that are close by. It gives you a review of the cafe and lets you know if there is any wifi and if pets are allowed etc. The best bit is that it shows you if they have decaf or not - a big plus as I only drink decaf coffee (see photo below)
