December was ages ago. I know. What can I say, time just gets away from me. So what on earth did I do in December?! I had a big get-together with friends from summer camp in London, then took a trip to Cornwall to visit the place where I lived for 4 years during uni – it was so weird to go back see all the old haunts and go for walks along the beach on a cold and wintery day. And then all of a sudden it was time to fly away to the sunshine for Christmas and spend 10 days swimming, tanning and playing on the beach.

Not bad. Not bad. It definitely helped that I went on a family holiday at the end of the month that involved me spending zero money. But London is expensive, and I really need to try and spend less in January!
