Every year I kick off my revision by making a humongous timeline of tasks and of course the yearly revision playlist. I thought I’d go through what makes the perfect revision playlist from the opinion of a easily distracted English student. 1- Calm music: I think we all know we don’t want […]

As we approach exam period, I wanted to talk about my first semester of 3rd year and most importantly the modules I took this term and how I found them. The good thing about this semester was that I had my dissertation and an optional module, which meant that most of what I was studying […]
