KEEP YOUR HEAD UP

I've managed to pass the 2 exams i had to resit this summer. I've graduated with my BSc (Hons) Environmental Health and I'm happy enough with that because I'm gona work in the UK that soon. It has cost me couple of headaches. UK system is fucked up!

I'm waiting for an answer from the University I've applied for a Master degree, Im currently studying the same year again in my home university because the board of examiner finally didn't validate my stay abroad. I've only learned that couple of weeks ago. According to them, the course I've attended in Jordanstown didn't really matched with the one they promised me to validate in France rather based on chemistry rather than fucking Management and whatever else. What a mess!!! It is very frustrating & I was litteraly disgusted of studying the last 2 weeks. Fortunately I had some good time with my friends at home, sometimes it really helps to swallow that kind of bad news and to keep your head up with courage and determination.
However, I don't have any regret to have gone in Northern Irish for the people I've met up there, for the Craic, and for the experience to have lived abroad on a beautiful island with the shittiest weather. Definitely no regrets!


It is now my first week in my home university in Mulhouse (Est of France) and it's scary because I feel like I don't have the required basics in science (especially in chemistry). The level I'm supposed to catch up is gona be a PURE NIGHTMARE for me this year and I start to understand why I didn't get the equivalence of my Northern Irish degree here. Moreover, this city looks a bit shit, and there's absolutely no craic down here altough there's about 5000 students on the campus! All pubs empty, I already miss a bit Jordanstown campus.

LIVIN' IN MADRID

The two exams I had to resit this summer gave me couple of headaches during my stay in Madrid. It was actually the only black point down there. I didn't get very sunten in a month in Spain. What a pity that there were not UV lights in the library I was studying in because I'd have been almost black if so!
Thanks to Silvia & her friends, I've been learning the basics in spannish. Qe Fuerte!
Nice moments with my wee spannish sun, great summer and good craic again.
Can't wait to go back there again!!!



With Silvia's friends: Rocio & Jon
Partying in Madrid streets
TOLEDO

Jon, Rocio, Sivia and me visited Toledo on the 15th of August.
By bus, it's an hour south from madrid.

A beautiful medieval city quite well conserved and even slightly nicer than Segovia
