Re: The Uni Study Thread Mk III've been M.I.A during the whole Easter holidays and hardly done any work. Fail! I have a huge to do list.
- Teaching Rationale essay (2000 words with teaching resources)
- Learning Log summary statement (1500 words)
- Queenship article review (500 words, need to pick an article)
- Two 750 word Nazi German article reviews (read both articles, done most of one review)
- society committee admin
- pick exam topics
- begin revision
- was going to finish off seminar work that I didn't do earlier in the term because of essays.. but decided I may as well just pick my exam topics and do those seminar readings in detail.
- read all of Sara Evans: Born for Liberty
- read all of the Michael Burleigh: the Third Reich
ARGH. -

Re: The Uni Study Thread Mk IIIt's quite liberating to work whilst not wearing a bra... much more comfortable!... my revelation for the day!
At least you get 1000 points for doing it!(Original post by CoffeeStinks)
Haha thanks, I like the idea of rewarding myself with more studying. It warms my heart.

Re: The Uni Study Thread Mk IIproductive day? I think so. I have done all except for 2.75 lectures into revision notes
I now feel bad about all the procrastination I did this morning, thinking what I could have achieved if I hadn't gone food shopping, paper shopping, moved all my room about, hoovered, changed the bedding over (oh and of course I am regretting being on here now too!)(Original post by ellejaytee)
Today
-three lectures of Econometrics notes into revision notes (estimated time 3 hours - hoping much less!)
-buy milk and spread from the local shop on my way home from bfs
Tomorrow
-Public choice lecture (rent seeking) to revision notes (estimated time 3hrs)
-Macroeconomics lecture (unreal business cycles) to revision notes (estimated time 3hrs)
-Start Incentives lecture (non-linear pricing) to revision notes (estimated time 5hrs) -

Re: The Uni Study Thread Mk II4,300 after an afternoon in the library and a wander around town for a break.
Feel slightly more optimistic now. Going to have a cuppa and get it up to 6,000 by tomorrow morning.
Really scared that my tutor will hate it and tell me to re-write it - I don't have the time! Anyway, that's worst case scenario so I'm not thinking about it for now.
I'll go to the library again tomorrow as I seem to work better around other people who are working.Last edited by somethingbeautiful; 12-04-2012 at 18:48. -
