I can't remembered if I moaned about not getting my May exam grades (and diss, for that matters) before the end of November. I'm tired of waiting now :sigh:

EDIT: I also decided to get my clothes to dry faster so put them on the spin mode and my washing machine now sounds like an X-Wing (or a flying Ford Anglia, depending on your references) about to explode…

Hodor is a character from Game of Thrones who only ever speaks to say "Hodor" :smile:

Is end of November when the School Board meets? I remember feeling like my MA results were like a Christmas present (logging into the portal on my phone while on the bus back from work) - just searched my emails and in 2010 they met on 8th of December, so much waiting though. Lots of sympathy.

Hope your washing machine doesn't take flight!

(I am flipping freezing and have the heating on and a blanket on my knees. It's not even November yet!)

Hello. Tell us more. We be nosey!

I was moaning to my mum earlier about how I am already really cold in the grim north (why don't they sell decent thermals here???) and she told me it was 19C in London. Thanks mum!

I think so, it's all a bit confusing and no-one's got a clear answer, it's so frustrating!
It could also be the crappiest Christmas present ever, but the good thing is I'm already in a full-time job so no-one will ever rely on the potentially rubbish grades I might get if I stay out of academia! I'm having massive doubts about the quality of my dissertation as well, way too late to do anything but I hope I haven't messed up too badly… Oh well, I'm gonna go back to worrying about whether I'll make it on time for the next fresh cookies delivery at work instead!

Welcome Liv btw :smile:

Thank-you!

Well...I'm doing my MSc in Sport & Exercise Psychology at the moment (I am aware this is not seen as very 'credible'... I had an offer to do Forensic Psychology too, which was what I had always wanted to do, but I went for Sport & Exercise Psych in the end, best decision I have ever made. :smile:

).

Actually started it in 2013, was supposed to graduate in August, but intermitted in April, was admitted to hospital 6 days later, and spent 5 months inpatient for anorexia treatment. But I was discharged last month and went back to uni last month too, so just getting back into it all again! Done a lot of the modules already, so I've got one module to do next semester [started it but did not finish it last year], one assignment to finish for the other module that I didn't finish before intermitting (hoping to have that in before Christmas), my dissertation and an independent study. I love research, so I am loving being back to studying again.

Well that was a long ramble!

How about everyone else, what are you all studying/what are you all up to in life? :smile:

Sounds rough, but good on you for getting right back to it! I hope you don't need to worry about the 'credibility' of your degree -- life has knocked any tendency to take these things at face value out of me.

I'm just starting the third year of a PhD in English, and I'm tired all the time.

Great news on the discharge :smile:

My ice skating coach is doing the same masters as you, just though I'd tell you :tongue:

Well I'm a graduate turned undergrad again. I have a degree in Education Studies plus a PGCE. I taught for two years and then ditched it to start a degree in nursing, which is what I'd always wanted to do but health reasons stopped me back then. So yeah, just started my second year and pooing it basically.
