Being boundless from exams and studying are such a relieve and at the same time, there’s a feeling of emptiness somehow. Hours spent on studying then were replaced by loitering around Glasgow’s shopping streets, lazing around at home and stressing ourselves up for trip planning. Extremely thrilled that exam is all over, bitting nails with […]
