Now one thing I’ll never understand is people who spend days on end in the library achieving minimal amounts, why drag yourself to the library to write 2 paragraphs in 7 hours? I can only put this kind of procrastination down to inefficient use of library time and major distractions. Personally if I’m heading to the library it’s […]

University life can often prove hectic with socials, revision and lectures all eating into your schedule. I personally feel like I can’t keep up with it all unless I’m militantly organised, so here are a few ways I keep myself together. Coloured folders – For all you mac users out there, I’ve discovered a revolutionary folder […]

I finished my degree last week- last Saturday to be precise. It’s taken me nearly a week to write this because I’m still in denial. Even seeing the words written down doesn’t make it seem real. It seems like only yesterday that I was having a meltdown about the fact that I didn’t have […]

My January exam results came out on February 10th but I know that some subjects have only very recently received theirs, so I think what I’m about to say is relevant to many. I’m not going to lie, but I wasn’t expecting great things from my PS3002: Brain and Cognition exam (I wrote about […]

Happy new year everyone! (Bit delayed I know but I thought it’d be rude not to say it on my first post of the year…) On Monday I had my last ever January exam! I don’t think I can put into words how happy I am to never have to do another January exam again […]

Yesterday I wrote my last ever exam as a university undergraduate. Not gonna lie, I’m not feeling very nostalgic at the moment, I doubt I’m gonna miss the 10+h marathons in the library or the anxiety before going in. But I will miss university as an opportunity to learn! Take yesterday’s exam for example, PS3010. […]

I’ve left quite some time pass since my last blog post! The truth is that I’ve been revising nonstop for days, and there isn’t much to talk about when you spend 10+ hours in the library! But I just found out something amazing… the university has launched a stress-fighting programme to help students deal with […]

That’s it. It’s done. I handed in my dissertation the morning before the deadline, mainly because I was really done with it. At that point, there was nothing I could do to change it, and to be honest I was quite happy with it! 🙂 I went to see my supervisor the day before, to […]

I still can’t believe my last exam was three days ago. Do you ever feel like end of exams can be kinda anticlimactic sometimes? I’ve been spending 10+ hours in the library everyday, dreaming of the day all this would be over like it was a big light at the end of the tunnel.. 😛 […]
