Today I am bringing you something every student needs in their life which is a resources guide, perfect for finding out different bits of information which is helpful to students. I can't believe this will be my second post of the week, if you missed the first one feel free to read it here. So for this post I decided I would compile a list of links which I've used from time to time which help me deal with everyday student life, some are more serious than others, but take what you wish from this post. I hope you enjoy and have a fabulous rest of the day!

Living in a shared house hacks:

Being in a house share can be incredibly tough, for one sharing space with your friends can often mean you get on each others nerves for doing silly stuff. When deciding the amount of people you are going to be living with I think it's important to think about it properly because fitting too many people in a small space can be stressful and cause even more problems. Also living with housemates can be tough as they don't always cooperate with their share of house chores. This post written by Bellvue is amazing for sharing tips and ideas on how to cope whilst living in a house share and the best ways to remain argument free. 

Living well on a budget: 

I found this website Wisebread and it's great for tips on how to survive on a small budget and how to keep within your money amounts, there are many useful articles which teach you the best way to keep track of your money and how to save more money. I am sure there are other similar sites but I like the clear layout of Wisebread and how simple it is to navigate around.

Making meals from what you have:

I love the website Supercook because it enables you to make the best meals from the ingredients you have. The way the site works is by entering some ingredients you have in your cupboards and the website creates recipes to suit what you have, occasionally it tells you to add extra ingredients but it's a good way to use up what you have and also a great thing to do at the end of term to use up all of your stock. 

Where can I get the cheapest pint?: 

This info-graphic literally made me think straight to students, us students are forever trying to find the cheapest deal for alcohol and finding out where in the UK has the cheapest pint in advance is awesome because when you go to visit your mates uni's you know in advance roughly about what you are going to get charged. I totally wouldn't recommend buying a pint in Hampshire as it's £3.51 per pint, but Herefordshire is totally the space to be at £3.15 a pint, yay! P.s. if you are looking at going on holiday anytime soon hit up Belgium where the pint is only £1.27.. deal!

What websites do you recommend for other students?
