This weeks song is from the up and coming, Aussie band 5 Seconds Of Summer. Their career has completely blown up from them posting covers of songs on YouTube 3 years ago, to having a number one hit in the UK (and number 2 as of yesterday). The majority of their fans were introduced to the band when they supported One Direction on their Take Me Home Tour in 2013, they they supported One Direction's Where We Are Tour in the UK earlier this year. Even though the band age ranges from 19-17 they capture the punk-rock with a hint of pop very well. And they're all exceptionally good looking, bonus. The song I have chosen this week is from their album which is actually being released here in the UK on the 30th June 2014. Amnesia was one of the songs the band played in the line up for support act of the Where We Are Tour, and I was hooked instantly. If you haven't already make sure you take a listen to their other songs and also pre-order their album.

It's finally Summer(hooray), after, well.. a hard year of partying and catching up with work that I may have fallen behind in due to being too hungover to peel myself from my sheets and go into University. Anyway, I'm back! I found it too difficult to incorporate blogging into my first year Uni lifestyle, it was nonstop consuming Tesco value vodka, sleeping or being in lesson. I want to dedicate my Summer to my blog as (you can probably tell) it was feeling rather unloved and outdated, so the plan is to post as much as I can about any nonsense that comes to my bonkers mind. If any of you have any ideas of what posts I could include please please please comment below! As you may have noticed by blog has had a kind of lick of paint, you might say. This is thanks to the amazing Han Valentine, who literally spent the majority of her day helping me re-vamp my blog and making it more appealing, because lets face it my blogger design skills weren't that great. Personally I think she's done a fantastic job and I am so pleased with it. Because she did such a good job I think you guys should go and check out her blog (and instagram because I love a good nosey). Han's blog: http://www.hanvalentine.com Instagram: http://instagram.com/hanvalentine_ All in all, expect to see a lot of me over the next three and a half months and I am going to try my best in incorporating my blog into my University life as of September. Please comment below what posts you would like me to include on my blog! emma x

I thought i'd do a bit of a different post for you all..well a more rambley post. Tomorrow I go back to Universirty for my third and final term of first year. I can't really believe how fast it's gone. I know people always say "it's the best time of your life and those three years fly by" but I thought they were just saying it. I will do another post later in the year after my course has finished (and I hopefully move on to be a second year haha) just talking about leaving home etc and basically being a fresher.
University has changed me completely, I mean going out twice a week, cooking for myself, even getting a train on my own! It's matured me for the better as i've always been comfortable where i've been but knew I wanted something more than staying in my own little bubble for the rest of my life.
I always get mixed feelings going back to uni after 3 or 4 weeks off..or even a weekend for that matter. Uni life and home life are completely different and even though I LOVE uni I really do dislike the contrast. I mean, you have to make your own cups of tea at uni :-(. I always have a little cry saying bye to my parents, brother and dog but within half an hour i'm back to my uni self; wanting to drink excess amounts of Tesco Value vodka..student life.
If you'd like to see my personal experience of fresher life please comment below, and it might be a little fun to do a series of posts based on Uni like, fresher essentials etc.
Oh! And I can't forget Music Mondays. So heres the song I have been obsessing over this week and literally cannot get out of my head. The Courteeners - Are You In Love With The Notion a very very catchy song that will instantly get stuck in your head from the first listen. I'd highly suggest YouTubing The Courteeners and listen to some of their songs, so catchy! Another one of my favourites by the same band is Not Nineteen Forever.

So yeah take a listen, and i'd love to hear what song you're loving at the moment!
It's that time of the week again; Music Mondays. Featuring the recent song/album I have been enjoying this week. And this week I have rekindled my love for Imagine Dragons. An American based band who are just excellent, and I would do anything to see them live. The song in particular chosen from their album Night Visions, even though I enjoy all of their songs on this album my favourite currently is Amsterdam. I highly recommend you buying this album (it's been out for a while so i'm sure it won't be too expensive). Hope you all have a happy monday :-)
