Welcome!

Why hello there and welcome to my Geography blog. I'm an A-level student from Somerset studying Environmental Science, Geography and Archaeology. I should probably explain how this blog has come about. During my first lesson of the new year my teacher exclaimed that I should start a “What I learnt this week…” blog. I thought this would actually be a good idea to help for revision and “consolidate my learning” which is what the teachers always tell me to do and it might (hopefully) help other people doing geography as well. So this is my geography blog.

There are two of us!

So i am a geography geek and got added so i can blog too. what can i say, i love it absolutely love it! i'm not really that clever (that's a lie she is!) but it doesnt stop a love i have for the subject, i also study environmental science and geology.

My portrait photo should reflect what topic I'm studying at the time. If I remember to change it... If you have any questions or want to talk to us about anything Earth Sciences related please don't hesitate to ask!

Title Change

So the eagle eyed amongst you may have noticed that A. We've now changed the title of our blog and B. We didn't actually post anything during the summer holidays, we all need a break though right?

The principal reason for the change of name is because neither of us are strictly doing a geography degree but rather degree schemes that encompass all of the Earth Sciences, this means that this blog will now be filled with Geology and Environmental Science posts as well as Geography which should make it more interesting and helpful to everyone. Now I can't remember exactly when Vix starts her course but my move in date for Lancaster is the 1st October so after freshers week I shall begin to blog regularly once again, expect a lot of climate change, edaphic topics and geological systems amongst other stuff.

I also reckon that the spike in our views this week has been Millie directing new geography students to this blog. If I were you I'd start my own geography blog, my grades improved drastically once I started writing it and I wish I'd started it in my first year. Geography went from being my worst subject at AS to my best at A2, blogging is definitely a great revision tool!
