Post-Seasonal Motivators
Posted by Arllen in Biological Sciences on May 13, 2017
This week’s post is going to focus on all the lovely things I am looking forward to once exam season is over. We all have those objects that we regard as lights at the end of the tunnel – things that motivate us to push through those endless groups of notes and cuecards – and […]

Mind Games and Revision Pains
Posted by Arllen in Biological Sciences on April 29, 2017
Again, we are almost at the end of another month. I swear time is passing by quicker and quicker! So fitting with the theme in which I try and compose at least one exam-related post each revision cycle, today’s topic is going to be all about… revising productively! As a third year, I have […]

Summer Plans
Posted by Daisy in Biological Sciences on June 15, 2016
I have officially finished my degree (providing I pass, of course) and to be honest nearly two weeks later it still hasn’t quite sunk in. It’s a strange feeling not having to go to the library every day and at times I have felt a little lost. But of course it has been lovely; I […]

The end is near

With three exams complete and just one to go, I can see the end. On Friday morning I will be sitting my final ever undergraduate exam. My exams so far have been a mixed bag- one has gone pretty well, another has gone partially well and another not so great. Having said this, I’ve definitely […]

LCFC celebrations
Posted by Daisy in Biological Sciences on May 29, 2016
After Leicester won the Premier League title a few weeks ago, the city has been the liveliest I’ve ever seen it. A couple of weeks ago we had the LCFC parade, with the tour bus ending in Victoria Park. As my student house is across the road, I didn’t have much of a choice in […]

HONY
Posted by Daisy in Biological Sciences on May 17, 2016
I don’t know how many people follow Humans of New York on social media, but those who don’t should. HONY tells stories of the people on the streets of NYC, with a picture to go with each story. Sometimes the pictures show the person who’s story is being told, other times the person will remain […]

Come Dine with Me
Posted by Daisy in Biological Sciences on May 2, 2016
As you can imagine, at present life isn’t the most interesting. The highlight of my day is normally packing up my work after a morning at the library and heading to the gym for a change of scenery, before heading back to the library for an afternoon session. My housemates and I wanted to give […]

Summer Social Weekender
Posted by Daisy in Biological Sciences on April 24, 2016
As most people are probably aware, after exams the student union hosts the ‘Summer Social Weekender’. This is a two day event with three separate parts to it. The first is the Friday night Shabang at the O2 academy, a typical Friday night for Leicester students. The second takes place on the Saturday daytime and […]

When the hard work pays off!
Posted by Daisy in Biological Sciences on April 17, 2016
Since coming back from Germany I have definitely felt more motivated and focused on my final year. I’ve put a lot of hard work into all of my pieces of coursework this year, really trying to understand the literature and hoping this shows in my work. I have found that I have more of an […]
