It's May and all of us taking international CIE A Levels know that means it's exam time! I've just completed 2 papers and have 6 more papers to go till I'm officially free from exams for the summer!!
However, in the midst of the studying and preparation, I've subscribed to a few websites to better prepare myself for the UK!
I've certainly found them helpful and I hope you do too! If the links aren't clickable, then just copy and paste them into your browser! :)

- Not only does the site link you to good deals and discounts, they often publish helpful guides from cooking gourmet meals with a microwave to spending on a budget!

- I'm coming across as really thrifty, aren't I? But I suppose it is a major concern for many who are planning to study in London so here's a guide on how to spend!

- And a less useful, but absolutely hilarious take on how to survive in the IK. Don't know how true that is but I guess we'll just have to wait and see.
It would be helpful to download a map of the area you're heading for and scouring your nearest Tesco or Pound Store to work out how much you'd have to bring from home and how easy it is to get stuff there! And for us Asians, keep an eye out for Chinatown!
Till next time!
