By humanities Posted on November 16, 2016 Posted in History No Comments Tagged with Lizzie Knott

‘Down it fresher’ – the three famous words deeply embedded into the minds of us first years, thanks to sports socials and general exploration of Bristol’s vibrant nightlife. Not only have these past six weeks been exciting and eye-opening, but …

So first year is underway and we’re already one essay in with another due next week. Hopefully a lot of you achieved the grade you wanted, but if felt you could have done a bit better (like me), there’s no …

We are a month or so into term now and student life is in full swing! It’s been a busy few weeks for me, having to balance lectures, assignments, editing for Epigram as well as Co-directing a full-length theatre production. …

Has it only been 6 weeks?!

By humanities Posted on November 16, 2016 Posted in English No Comments Tagged with Victoria Jones

So far it seems to have been how much can you cram into a month and a half? The answer: more than you could imagine! Since my last post I have written coursework, celebrated my 21st birthday, organised society competitions, done so much sports training, …

Back in Bristol

By humanities Posted on October 24, 2016 Posted in History No Comments Tagged with Adam Chambers

New year, new me

By humanities Posted on October 24, 2016 Posted in Classics and Ancient History No Comments Tagged with Holly McNaught
