Blogmas day 1- How I'm spending Christmas this year!

By -
Hello everybody and welcome back to another blog post,

 It's Blogmas! Yay! I'm feeling Christmassy already. Today we're going to get our Christmas tree! Before having the extension, we had to restrict ourselves and get a small tree. Now, we can get a massive tree. 

 Last year was such a disaster though because our extension was still being built and we couldn't get our tree till the very last minute. Since our tree was so big, we had to get a stand for it not a pot. It took us 3 hours to get the stand working. We had to call for our dad's help and he managed to set it up pretty quickly! Lol.  However, we could see that our tree was slowly tilting over but it managed to stay stand to the end.

 This year, my two God brothers and my God sister are coming over from France to stay. I haven't seen them for ages. I must have been about 2 or 3 when I last saw them. But I'm really excited! I think me and my sister are going to take them to London by train and we're also going to spend a day shopping out in Cambridge. I don't know if they're coming before Christmas or just after but regardless I will be posting all about that!

 How are you spending Christmas this year? Let me know in the comments below and I will be sure to reply to them. I ♡ hearing from you!

 See you next time,

 Bye,

 XOX,Juliette

Durham - Lifestyle Monday

Hello everybody and welcome back to another blog post,  As most of you have probably already seen on my Instagram, a couple months ago now, me and my parents went on a road trip to Durham to visit the university there. I thought it would be a wise idea to apply to other universities apart from Cambridge so that I would have more options in the future should anything not go to plan. And that's why I chose Durham because it was a good university and I also heard many good things about it from people at work who said they had studied there. I had actually wanted to visit Durham during their open day but of course this open day just so happened to fall at the exact same time as the open days at Cambridge which I suppose is typical. Both Cambridge and Durham are pretty competitive institutions to enter and I suppose they want you as an applicant to be selective with your decisions and narrow your choices down. It was quite annoying but I took to the internet and researched other wa...

What should we learn about in history? - Writing Wednesday

By -
Hello everybody and welcome back to another blog post,  The question of what we all should be learning about in history has been a popular question for a long time. If I were to go into one of my history lessons now, even my history teachers would be saying, "I wish you could learn more about this" or "It's a shame that we can't cover this topic," etc, etc. However, never before has the question been more asked than most recently, as with the whole Black Lives Matter movement, people are beginning to really question whether or not what we are learning about in history has a good representation of what most of the different sides of the larger story are. As I've seen on Instagram, there's been a lot of videos going around about all the influential black people that have been forgotten about in history. Today, I'm going to give my personal take on this, in the hopes that it will provide you with a better understanding.  Before I go on further, I th...

The Jasmin Vardimon Company at the Sadlers Wells Theatre - Dance Saturday

Hello everybody and welcome back to another blog post, As many of you already know, recently I joined the Cambridge Youth Dance Senior Company and I have now been taking classes with the group every Tuesday evenings since I joined in September. So far, everything is going well. We are set to perform at the Energise Dance Festival on the 4th of February next year so we have all worked together to come up with choreography for a 4 minute piece that we are creating for the show.  However, during the October half term, we also went to see the production Alice, performed by the professional dancers from the Jasmin Vardimon Company at the Sadlers Wells Theatre in London. The performance was spectacular and much of our inspiration for our own 4 minute routine, came from what we saw at the Sadlers Wells Theatre. The production was loosely based on the classic Alice in the Wonderland tale and the show combined props, costuming, and innovative choreography to tell a story of Alice coming of ...

Exploring Cambridge: Punting, Ittou, Heavenly Desserts, and Jesus Green - Writing Wednesday

Hello everybody and welcome back to another blog post,  As you may have already seen on my Instagram a few weeks back, I took my sister Alice and my Polish friend Teresa out on a punting tour along the river Cam. Being a river tour guide can be quite a tough and demanding job at times but I suppose one of the great perks of doing it is that you can take your friends and family out on a self-punt along the river for free. The day after me and my parents had returned home from Seville, Teresa came over from Poland to stay with us for a couple of days. Really, she was just off to see her boyfriend Miles in Loughborough after her visit but since she was there and had never seen the backs of the colleges before, I saw it as the perfect opportunity to take her and Alice out on an informal tour around the Backs. Teresa arrived back in England on Friday the 9th of September at Standsted Airport. Me and my dad drove up to the airport that evening and waited in the McDonald's car park until ...
