Mine aren't off, which is annoying as I've got a couple of plans for Monday, it's going to be a busy day!

See I'm studying it not to get a good grade or anything but cos I find it fascinating and it fits in well with Eng Lang :yep:


Well I was the same, I did it purely out of interest and I loved it. Worked well with biology too. But I really did not have the money for all my textbooks, and biology was more important to me (plus I can use that book for a couple of my modules this year). I'd recommend using the podcasts anyway, even with the textbook - they're a really good study tool, and if you find it interesting it's great to hear all the lectures again in your own time :smile:

If it helps I did Psychology 1 without the textbook last year... But if you want to get it, it can definitely wait til after payday :smile:

Really?! The way they put it it's as though you need to use it a lot! That's reassured me somewhat lol.

I'm doing Psychology, so if you need to borrow textbook do just ask :yep:

This week you only missed introductory lecture and one on autism and one on sleep which have both been recorded (in theory)

Ooh thanks :biggrin: I've ordered it anyway but thanks a lot :redface:
Where do I find them? :O I was wondering why the Moodle page for Psych was so bare, that must be why lol. That is also reassuring, you guys are good :p:

The psychology department insists on being different - it has a 'portal', so moodle is only used for coursework hand-ins for some reason.

Google 'glasgow uni psychology portal' and log in with your normal GUID and password :smile:

I had 8am classes every morning my first year of undergrad.
Why is the QMU website down? :frown: How do I become a member?

I was going to join the GUU but it seems a bit ... dry. :dontknow: I love live music and theatre and comedy more than debating.

I knew a girl from New Jersey who told me her school had an 8am start :eek:
You know what sucks? Still being awake at nearly 6am with a 10am lecture. I have decided to forego sleep so I won't sleep in and miss the lecture. Like a boss.

*gets a mug of coffee* :colonhash:

Yup, they did the imperative tense in lecture 1, and speak mainly in German even though it's a beginners' class. Most people in the class have done German before so I feel stoopid having done absolutely zilch! I can't, I didn't do the stuff during the summer and it'd be too much anyway doing 4 culture classes :frown: French and Spanish culture are bad enough, never mind level 1 and level 2 Italian :tongue:

I miss her :frown:


I would love to learn German. I nearly chose it instead of Standard Grade French. I love how it's so ... forceful :colone:

Italian is such a sexy language :sexface:

I think Eng Lang and my Eng Lit aren't happening


Wait are you doing level 2 Eng Lit? :s-smilie:

I can't keep track of this. I still think I'm doing level 2 Eng Lang FFS :colondollar:

And I still haven't read Things Fall Apart. :facepalm2:

I was going to go to a theatre group audition today but ... naaaahhh :colonhash: Kind of CBA being in a Shakespeare play this semester anyway.

Just go into the QM. You have to do it in person, it should just be in the cloakroom during the day.

Seriously, I still can't remember the imperative tense and that's 22 weeks extra of teaching...

The culture classes have so much reading, wish you didn't need it for Honours. Eanna gave us a reading list just for the first 5 week block and there's about 6 books on it - only certain chapters but still the effort of finding them all when everyone else wants them too :tongue:
