Fourth Year…I can’t believe I just wrote that!

Lecturer: “I mean you’re fourth year now, so really you should always have a scientific journal article on you, to read and highlight in spare moments.” Students: stunned silence So I’ve started fourth year. It’s hard work. Long lectures, dissertation, many courseworks and the nudging pressure of knowing this is the beginning of the end. …

Rugby and Crab Spiders

Thanks to this week’s field course write up deadline I am practically dreaming about spiders but this weekend was a bank holiday so I can’t all be work can it now? My break from work came in the form of a rugby game; a rather drawn out whole day to be a little more honest …

Back!

Guess who’s back? Back again? Sarah’s back…there’s no need for you to inform to your friends, however. Opening the blog with a Eminem reference…I am so down with the kidz – I mean, please take note of the use of “z,” evidently I am some kind of spelling maverick. *shifty eyes* So, as you may …

Portugal Field Course

So here I am, after a week’s recovery in my own bed, two days waiting for my bag to get back from Lisbon and a cheeky trip to Sandhurst to play netball, I’m finally getting the chance to sit down and write properly about the Portugal Field Course. * * * A week watching crab …

A Bowl of Work

So lectures have started again. *Psycho music* They’re really interesting, relevant to my course and all of that – but full days (6 hrs a day) on Monday and Tuesday are pretty intense. Revising, exams, and Christmas holidays somehow make you forget what lectures are like and the natural phenomena occurred with them – so …

Take a Break, Have Some Cake

Tea and cake at 3 o’clock is fine, very civilized even. Eating chocolate fudge cake at 3 o’clock in the morning, the tea necessary for a caffeine burst, however is not really acceptable. The only possible excuse is that essay deadlines are looming! Why else would I also have the urge to then sort out laundry after …

The Game of Life

This is my To Do list: We’ve got a lot to do, it is one lump or two? For you our guest, She’s our Guest,  Be our guest!. As you can see I have quite a lot to do. Uni Third year is like playing “life” on level expert, with multiple coursework bosses and low …

Anything can happen on Halloween…

Right now I feel like this:   My brain has been hollowed out and my features are carved in an expression of fatigue and mild confusion. Mid-term blues when the work really accumulates and summer seems like a distant memory.   However none of that matters because MY FAMILY ARE VISITING TODAY!!!! As you can …

I’m an Independent Visitor!

Hello everyone! Hope you’re all are doing fine with your revision before the exams in the next few weeks. My exam will be in late June unfortunately. Anyway, on Tuesday last week, I went to meet my young person whom I will befriend for the next 2 years. I was really excited about this position …

Examania

Hello everyone! I’m so sorry about my absence of late… the last few weeks before the Autumn term ended were very busy, and since then I’ve been busy with coursework and exam revision. I handed in two pieces of coursework on Wednesday; they both were very difficult and took a lot of effort but I’m reasonably …
