Signing Off

Hello dear readers, if you’re still out there. It is more likely you are holidaying on some golden beach or undergoing an internship; or at the very least enjoying your summer holiday way too much to be surfing blogs. On the other hand, we are all part of Generation Y, permanently plugged in to the …

Good Luck!

You know its revision time when you emerge from your prison of a room to find all the lights out in your student living room at 9.30 on a Sunday evening; typically prime house bonding time. Theres an tangible tension that fills the house and the only sounds that can be heard are the tapping …

Week of Fun.

Welcome back! …  to the most intense term of the year! Considering I put on a play in the space of 3 weeks last term, that statement makes me extremely nervous. Yet with exams and coursework deadlines approaching at the speed of light, it make sense. However, before I lock myself out of Facebook and …

Time to Enjoy Things

Hey there readers, Happy Tuesday. So I usually post on Mondays but I’ve have been pretty bad at sticking to schedule recently, yet this week I was going to be organised. We have a week before Uni starts again, so I bashed out a 9-5 day of coursework yesterday because ‘the fear’ has leered its …

Firstly, last Monday and Tuesday …

Theatre is Life

Theatre is Life! At least it is my life at the moment and was most definitely last week; well theatre and musicals. I was ridiculously cultured last week come to think of it … Let me explain. Two weeks ago my friend and I were fortunate enough to be given the chance to co-produce and …

ATTENTION ALL FINAL YEARS!

I’m here to talk to you today about the National Student Survey (NSS)! Not as exciting as the headline made out hey? But wait! Before you click on that cross and close this blog, let me tell you why filling in this survey is a grand idea that will generate you some first class karma …

Motivation such an aggravation!

Deryck Whibley and his Sum 41 chums summed it up perfectly: Motivation, such an aggravation. We live in a hectic, chaotic world where we are bombarded with information and looked upon to live up to certain expectations. University in particular is rapid, technology-driven and competitive. To flourish in this world we need lots of motivation. We …

Did you watch …?

Television: is it welcome downtime or a procrastination pest? One of student’s favourite past times is the amount of TV we consume, when we should be doing anything except vegetating in front of our digital boxes. But its cold, snow is forecast again this week (I know, I thought we were in the clear too), …
