So I am currently backpacking around South East Asia with my sister. I have been vlogging the whole thing and cannot wait to share that with you all when I get back. But I have already seen and experienced so much that I thought I would do individual written blog posts for each country I… Continue reading Backpacking 2016: CAMBODIA
VLOG: A week in the life

Here is a week in the life of Dammy... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4iiD3wW06bE&feature=youtu.be I definitely think I prefer being behind the computer screen rather… Continue reading VLOG: A week in the life
A thought on happiness
So it has been over a month since I last wrote something on here so thought I should give a quick update on what I have been up to. So far this term I have been in a play, started writing for the university newspaper, had a weekly radio show, been marketing two musicals, organised a fundraiser for… Continue reading A thought on happiness
Water is a poor substitute for chocolate…
In the spirit of the New Year and all my friends talking about their New Year's resolutions I thought I would write about why I will not be making any this year. So I have tried and failed to be healthy again. Towards the end of last term at university I made the decision to… Continue reading Water is a poor substitute for chocolate…
Don’t trust a black girl…
Last term I went to a talk titled the "Politics of black hair" by a fabulous new group at my university called 'The Black Women's project'.

The slave trade was abolished in the United Kingdom in 1833 and in the United States in 1865. We are taught about the civil rights trail blazers such as… Continue reading The Everyday Racist
Dear Fresher…
This is the second installment of my 'university advice' series (click here to read the first one where I discuss whether or not to go to university). I have finally come to terms with the fact that I am no longer a fresher so hopefully some of my experience can be helpful to those starting out… Continue reading Dear Fresher…
Fund my fun…
I have been debating whether or not I should write this post. I have had so much support for this blog so far and simply do not want to alienate or offend any of my readers. Whilst I believe it is futile to be unnecessarily controversial, I also feel like I have internalised political correctness… Continue reading Fund my fun…
