#joint hons
had a busy library day today, tried to motivate myself by fully embracing some kind of warm autumnal academia spin off
yearly reminder that if anyone needs personal statement advice i’m happy to help! i’m going into my third year of undergrad politics and history joint hons, and am more than happy to help out with any history/social sciences/humanities related statements. if anyone needs grammar checks or help cutting down statements for any other subjects i’m happy to take a look at them too! feel free to message x
summer holidays are for iced coffee and modern classics
ive had a nice little break between deadlines which has given me a chance to really focus on my last exam of the year, for my soviet experiment module. i’d always take a coursework style essay over an exam (even open book like this one will be), but at least getting a choice of questions means i get to pick the areas to focus on in revision. as you can tell (if you can read my handwriting), i tend to be drawn to social histories more than anything else, so i’m hoping some good questions come up!
I need some advice! Does anybody run/contribute to an online blog? Me and a friend are thinking of putting something together for mini essays/articles/thoughts, but honestly I don’t have a clue where to start and any tips would be amazing!
back at my uni house! so good to be back and getting lots more work done, which is a relief since exams are nearly here! newcastle weather means blue skies one minute and heavy rain the next, but i’m enjoying being able to go for walks more often than last term now the evenings are warmer and lighter
module selection for stage three is creeping up, so i spent most of yesterday trying to wrap my head around the very specific regulations and pick modules to balance my credits properly! finally managed to put together a balance that will work and i’m so excited for preregistration to go ahead, there are some great options that i’m so excited to take!!
exams are coming up!! spent most of today enjoying the sun (16° and sunny in england in april?? practically barbecue weather) and drawing up a plan of the next few months until the end of the semester to help visualise how long i have until deadlines. naturally this stressed me out so i spent an hour or two looking at past papers and guidance for one of my exams to feel a bit more prepared! how are other people feeling about exams?
trying to listen to more female artists and female fronted groups, especially ahead of the reopening of gigs and festivals. today i’m listening to pale waves while researching past paper content for my upcoming gov and pol of the US exam and drawing up a revision timetable
