Hello everyone, I hope you are doing well!
For this week’s blog post I decided to do a little life update, just to let you know what I am up to, what’s been going on in my life at the moment. I’ve done this type of post only once before and you guys seemed to really like it, it’s a casual way to just chat with my readers. Let me know what you’ve been up to in the comments as well 🙂
Hope you’ll enjoy, happy reading!
End of summer
As a university student, the back to school date is mid September. Since I started uni last week, that means summer is officially over for me. It’s been really great, being able to relax and enjoy time with my friends and family at home or by the lake was amazing. Then I travelled to California with my family for 3 weeks, we landed in San Francisco and took off in Los Angeles. We saw so many great places, wild animals and had many bubble teas (heck yeah). If you didn’t see the pictures from my trip, head over to my Instagram page! Back home, I had still lots of time left until back to school, so I enjoyed my free time as much as I could!
I got my first job
I got my first job and I am so excited!! It’s a student job that’ll start in November aside from my studies. I’ll be working in a little jewelry shop, the lady who owns it is just the sweetest and I love her creations. I am super happy because the job is in my field, since I am a product, jewelry and accessory design student. I will be working on Saturdays so it will be perfect for me!
Starting 2nd year
As mentioned before, I am currently studying product, jewelry and accessory design at the Geneva Art and Design University. I just started my second year last week, and we began with a jewelry project. The theme is the traditional Christmas tree brooch, which we have to interpret and modernize. It’s really fun and the brooches will be displayed and sold at my teacher’s gallery in Geneva in December.
Currently watching, reading and eating
On to what I am currently doing besides going to uni. I am currently loving the series How I met your Mother, it’s so good and super funny. If you loved Friends, you will love this one! Also there’s Neil Patrick harris in it, and he’s just brilliant.
During summer, I started to re-read the Harry Potter series and I am just about to start the last book, the Deathly Hallows. It had been a while since I’ve read the series so it’s been really great to re-discover the books. And watching the movies too!
When it was really warm, I loved making myself an iced maple latte. It’s super easy to make: one espresso shot, a glass of dairy/non dairy milk, two teaspoons of maple syrup and a few ice cubes. It takes literally less than five minutes to make, and it’s sooo good! I am not a huge coffee drinker but I love a nice latte. You can also drink this one hot!
Next stop: London
I am super excited because during my next school break I am going to London for a few days with my mom and sister. We’ve been there before and really love the city, so I can’t wait to go back. I already searched for a bunch of bubble tea places hihi… Please let me know your favorite spots in London in the comments below, I would love to know!
And there you guys go, I hope you enjoyed this little chatty life update! Let me know what you’ve been up to in the comments as well😊
I wish you a lovely day/night and I will talk to you in my next blog post!
All the Love,
