As I have no exams this year, only (lol) essays and a dissertation due in, I finish the university year really early on the 8th May. This seems crazy to me as it’s only eighteen days away… but I’m really looking forward to the lack of stress and pressure when I’m done. As I’m in […]

It’s the time of year when you can scare all finalists by uttering just one word to them; ‘dissertation’. The big deadline is looming on the horizon for all my fellow American Studies final years, and it’s strange to think that by May 10th the piece of work that I will have spent almost two […]

Although, obviously, […]

Hey y’all. In the last few weeks I’ve seen mobs of people all in their graduation gear wandering around Uni. It’s scary to think that this will be me in a few months as my third year enters its entering its last stages. Recently I visited some friends in Kent and the droves and droves […]

Hey y’all. So my dissertation has kicked off. I’ve chosen a question, found some things to read and a plan is slowly coming together. Thankfully I’ve been able to worm my way in to doing a question on Breaking Bad. Which, I might add, is by far the best TV programme. I don’t care if […]
