Hope you had a good social on Friday and 
with this essay! Hopefully shouldn't need all nighters for that many words, maybe just a couple of late nights 
with this essay! Hopefully shouldn't need all nighters for that many words, maybe just a couple of late nights Spoiler
Thanks, Lemur! I enjoyed the Netflix party social with some friends and the online Liberal Drinks with the Lib Dem soc last night, we stayed up until 1am and had an influx of birthday messages coming in this afternoon which is lovely. Had the best surprise from a very close friend of mine who hand delivered me a birthday card whilst keeping our distance because of the lockdown.
I still haven't started working on the essay and reckon I will defo need a couple of late nights to get it done to a high standard - should be fine.
Being 20 now is weird and I wish I could have a proper birthday celebration but still had a great day so far nonetheless.

Glad to hear it! Socialising til 1am would have me dead haha. Aww, that's rather lovely!
I hope you've started now! But hopefully once you got going then it became easier, starting is always the hardest bit I find
I'm glad you had a great day regardless
I think most people have missed proper birthday celebrations this year (or will do by next March), though I admit I don't think mine would have been massively different, only tend to have birthday cake nowadays as I'm not one for celebrating really.Original post by Lemur14

Planning the formative essay and trying to make links between different points, etc. was a bit of a challenge but I've managed. I found my department's resources on essay writing really helpful as I haven't wrote a single essay since the beginning of this year. It's all done and submitted to my seminar tutor now.
Currently quite sleep deprived as I reply to your post and just finished a politics seminar - it was really helpful as I didn't quite understand the topic but now it's clear.

Btw, all my teaching has moved online since a couple of weeks ago and I just feel very demotivated to do work but I think the online teaching for my politics module works really well - the seminars are actually useful in summarising the content and ensuring we actually understand it. For my other modules, I think things are going less well - I was initally excited about doing The Policy Process (SPY00002I) module but the lack of online seminars and the reliance on group activities which barely anyone does, isn't motivating me to actually do the work. I could talk to my supervisor about this like I've done before but he can't do much sadly and I don't know who I should even speak to now - I would feel awkward talking to my module convenors about it. :/
Friday 27th November 2020 - Autumn Week 9
I just realised before I was going to start writing this post/update that I haven't updated this blog in over 3 weeks and I'm pretty certain that's a clear indication that my life in essence is a hot mess right now.
3 weeks ago on Monday, I celebrated my 20th birthday and I didn't envisage that I would have celebrated my birthday during a national lockdown (2nd national lockdown in England) but I did make the most of it and it just melted my heart when some of my closest friends surprised me on my doorstep with a birthday card and some presents - they're really the best. Obviously, with the national lockdown still on-going in England until next Wednesday, I had to keep my distance outside my doorstep but it was good to see them nonetheless.
Since then, I've really been struggling with... cw: mental health - see spoiler for further information. I've self-referred myself for support internally with my uni and I'm not going to disclose what happened but I've met with my college team who listened to what I had to say and were quite understanding of how I was feeling and signposted me in the right direction - I need to apply for exceptional circumstances for my summative assignments due in January (I'll talk about this in a bit) and I've already arranged an emergency meeting with my academic supervisor to have a much-needed catch-up on things.
In short, I really need to apply for exceptional circumstances for my summative assignments as details for all of my assignments were released at pretty much the same time and annoyingly, they have bunching deadlines for Week 1 of Spring Term which is mid-January for us. This is really not an ideal situation for me to be in and I need to take into account that I'm trying to sort out an SSP for my anxiety as well as the time I will be spent travelling from York to London as I'll be going home for the Christmas break.
I'm not sure exactly when I'll be heading back down to London because I have 2 rapid Covid-19 tests booked for next week (3 days apart) and hopefully, I'll get the all-clear as I'm currently fit and healthy and don't have symptoms of Covid. It will probably be next week if not the week after next week.
As for how academia has been going since I last updated 3 weeks ago, I've missed about 4 seminars for my core module in Social Research Methods (and counting) because I'm just really behind with the work and I don't find it particularly helpful either. Teaching has now pretty much finished for the term which is great so I'll be spending next week and the Christmas break catching up on work and getting back on top of things whilst ensuring I also have a much-needed break.
Tomorrow afternoon, a close friend, MB and I'll be meeting up socially distanced for a walk which I'm looking forward too as I've mostly been going on irregular walks on my own - sometimes as far as the city centre or the uni campus which is good exercise. We actually had a proper catch-up via video call the other day and it was lovely of him to check in with me to see how I was doing - I did tell him and other close friends that I wasn't doing great last week.
Questions to those reading my GYG updates... How have you found this semester/term in terms of teaching and have you done anything interesting virtually with friends/family? And what do you think 2021 will be like - are we feeling optimistic or pessimistic about things?

You didn't sleep for 48 hours
I think I would have been writing nonsense by that point! Glad you were happy with it though Sorry to hear everything moved online...amazing how different unis are treating this, even when we had whole colleges in lockdown, they were allowed out (if not self isolating ofc) for teaching, teaching has continued throughout lockdown and only stopped this week so people can make use of the travel window. Group activities does sound horrible though, I'm not surprised you're not motivated to complete it!
Regarding your update
Spoiler
Tutorials that don't help are the worst...I drag myself along to mine because they're compulsory (whereas lectures that are helpful aren't lol), but it is a complete waste of time, so not going seems like a better option!
Hope you had a good walk with your friend!
tbh I've found virtual learning better than in person, the flexibility it gives it great, only thing I really miss are societies. The most "interesting" thing I've done virtually is I went to a society murder mystery the other day where they performed it on zoom and streamed it to youtube for us all to watch, with a prize for the person that guessed quickest! Wasn't really very social though since I didn't talk to anyone else, just sat on my bed eating dinner
I think that's just about the only thing I've done virtually outside the usual quiz/chat though.I think the first term of next year will be hard, possibly harder than this term has been, but after that it should start to look up

I've overexaggerated/badly phrased that but essentially, I did spend quite a lot of hours writing that essay. I forgot to say in this week's update that I got feedback for it and it was mixed - my seminar tutor found it a tad descriptive but praised me for very good referencing + intro and conclusion which is great. I'm content with it given that I haven't written an essay since the beginning of the year.
York also has a collegiate system as I'm sure you're aware but when we shifted to DfE Tier 2 for teaching, the uni prioritised in-person teaching for first years and a lot of the teaching facilities had to be reconfigured to meet the latest social distancing guidelines. Online teaching has been mixed but on the whole, I don't enjoy it and I hope to see further improvements for next term - hopefully there will be some return to in-person teaching again. Yes, group activities are the worse and I hate how I keep bumping into one of my lecturers around the uni ward - I live just outside of it (the ward boundaries are weird) but we've only ever talked via email - that's when he emailed me back in the beginning of term to say how impressed he was with my contributions to the online tasks and when I asked him for guidance on our summative assignment due in January.
Spoiler
The tutorials for my core module isn't really useful though I did receive several emails from my tutorial leader moaning about us (we're a tiny group) for not turning up and I didn't bother replying to her email. She's lovely and that makes me feel really bad but I'm just so behind on the work - it would be a waste of time if I did bother turning up to the Zoom sessions.
I had a nice walk with my close friend, MB, who's just a really sound guy I met last year at the academic reps social and we've been really close friends since. We basically walked about 6km in total over 2 hours to the city centre via a slightly muddy field and one of the three city walls to eventually end up in the city centre. Just enjoyed the fresh air really and had a long catch-up about things in general. It was tempting not to see the Christmas lights so we did that and took some pictures. I was also in the city centre today with another friend of mine but we just went for a short walk as we were both bored and not up to much.
I don't mind having my lectures pre-recorded but they're quite lengthy and I struggle to concentrate and get through them. The addition of captions are really helpful as it saves from having to decipher what the heck a particular lecturer was saying especially when they mumble or just rush through the content. Other than that, I don't think I've found online teaching particularly effective despite obviously having more flexibility in deciding when I work - it's good but I'm that person who cannot function effectively without some form of structure in my life.
A virtual society murder mystery does sound very fun. I've been quite addicted to playing Among Us and I'm fiercely competitive - my housemates found it funny when I basically shout/yell a bit and wonder what's going on.
Most of the virtual stuff I've been too are virtual drinks or games really and I've watching a lot of stuff on Netflix. I don't think anyone knows what next term will behold but I'm hoping for at least a partial return of some in-person teaching and more in-person events for societies.
Saturday 5th December 2020 - Autumn Week 10
Finally, it's the end of the Autumn term here at York - it feels much longer than 10 weeks and this term has been like no other. I just feel mentally and physically exhausted and burnt out in terms of the insane academic workload - one of the many things I've raised in my capacity as an academic rep. I've not done much work related to my academia this week as a result of this but I have been sorting out personal stuff to do with my cw: mental health
and attended three meetings in my capacity as an academic rep, one of them was a private 1:1 meeting with my Head of Department for a much-needed catch-up about various things which I can't disclose.
On Wednesday evening, my housemates and I had Christmas Dinner which was really lovely and I was genuinely quite happy for once - I just felt like myself again and I got slightly drunk, i.e. I was a bit tipsy by the end of the night after having quite a bit to drink - mostly brandy and coke. Beforehand, I also got myself a much-needed fresh trim at the barber's, but my usual barber wasn't there - still got a decent trim though.
On Thursday morning, I got my first of two lateral flow Covid-19 test and I was surprised by how quickly my result was turned around. Fortunately, I tested NEGATIVE and so if I get a second NEGATIVE result tomorrow, it means I can go back home to London safely on Monday afternoon. As I'm writing this post, I still need to tidy my room and hoover the carpet in my room - it's not looking too horrendous but I could definitely do with some tidying up. Then, I need to start packing my suitcase which I should start doing today.
I don't have anything else interesting to say sadly, but I've been making the most of virtual socials with different societies, mostly UoY Lib Dems which I've been heavily involved with since my first year and they're a really lovely bunch. I'm looking forward to going back home to London actually, but a part of me feels dread as I know I'll be working for some of the Christmas break as I have 4 assignments all due in mid-January 2021! Whelp!

Just a quick update from me on Sunday afternoon, I'm cleared the majority of the clutter in my room except for the pencil pot which I cba to sort out atm - it's an organised mess and it doesn't look too bad.
Earlier this morning, I got my second rapid (lateral flow) Covid-19 test and fortunately, I have tested negative again which means I'm very unlikely to have the virus and can travel back home safety tomorrow afternoon. I still need to begin packing my clothes and books (I've got a handful of books I'm taking with me - some of them are for my essay and some are for revision/core textbook for my modules).
Anyways, I've not been up to much all day except sorting out my laundry and getting tested again, but I might slowly work my way through editing my seminar notes for my politics module which shouldn't take me too long - I have had written notes which I need to basically digitalise over on Word. I'm probably going to watch a film or something with a friend this evening or have a virtual games night with some friends - who knows.
Later this afternoon, one of my closest friends, MB might pop round to mine to say bye to me in person (obviously we'll meet outside and adhere to social distancing) which is really cute and he's just nice like that. That's if he tests negative for Covid-19 as we've both decided to voluntarily get mass tested on campus just to be on the safe side. We'll probably have a short chat outside before he drives back home - I'm getting the train back tomorrow afternoon.
Btw, for anyone who cares lol, I'm doing ok atm in terms of my mental health - I'm looking forward to going back home. However, I do have quite a lot of work I need to catch up on and assignments to do, but I'll make sure to get some much needed rest as well.
QOTD: How is everyone doing? Got any exciting plans for Christmas? xD

Wednesday 9th December 2020
On Monday afternoon, I travelled back to London from York via the train which I thought was going to be severely delayed because of the knock-off effects of the earlier incident that morning in Peterborough. Fortunately, I wasn't affected but my train was overcrowded because several trains running in front of mine were cancelled and social distancing on board was tricky - I had the seat next to me vacant for most of the journey. When I finally got to London, I decided to get Thameslink and not the Northern Line back to mine to avoid the crowds - it was actually cheaper as I don't have an Oyster Card and if I did, I would have to link it to my railcard to benefit from getting 1/3 off my fare. It cost me under £2 which isn't bad as the tube would've set me back around £5 I think with my contactless card and I would probably have to wait for a bit to get on tube due to rush hour.
It's nice to be back in London again in terms of seeing my family again and not having to cook for myself for a while (it's been a bit tricky as a student), but I do have quite a lot of work to catch up on and with crammed space and family members occasionally getting in my way, this will be a tremendous challenge. Fortunately, my sibling is at sixth form until next week so that will help a bit, but on the whole, I'm really going to struggle to get my assignments (I have 4!) done with the limited space and distractions around me.
On that note, I just had a private virtual meeting with the support services at uni to ask them to provide evidence for my exceptional circumstances claim for deadline extensions to my assignments as I've been struggling with my mental health this term and I don't find it helpful how my department admin emails me to clarify that they will accept evidence from the uni's support services as they realise it's hard to obtain evidence from a GP during this time. That's being sorted out by the end of the week and hopefully I can breathe a bit - it will help me to better balance out the workload and have some much needed downtime as well because the past 10 weeks have been truly hectic, in particular the last 5!
Anyways, I've not been up to much since I got back to London, but I've ordered myself a decent AKG wireless headphone from eBay which is brand new and got myself a bargain (kudos to my sibling - I don't normally shop on eBay). It's essentially a present to myself aha as I'm currently stuck with cheap earphones (they're actually okay) which is starting to develop some issues with the sound.
I might also meet up with a couple of friends from home who I haven't seen for a while, but it just depends on the situation. One of my best friends from home, TB, is currently working and idk when he's free so it'll be hard to meet up but I'll try. Atm, there's a lot of speculation that London might be placed into Tier 3 which isn't good news and honestly, it is what it is at this point - most of my friends from uni are from places currently in Tier 3 so if London does indeed move into Tier 3, I could at least relate with their experiences of the restrictions.
This week, I'm aiming to edit my seminar notes for my politics module and start making a plan for one if not two of my assignments: Politics in the UK; and The Policy Process - the latter is important as I could do with some feedback on how I intend to structure the essay. Writing the essay shouldn't be too much of a problem. For my other two assignments, I'm going to need a bit more time, especially the assignment for Social Research Methods - I have to write a reflective journal and I don't know what to say because I'm so behind with that module. There's some activites I intend to catch up on and hopefully that will give me things to say in my reflective journal - I can't just say I've watched a TED Talk video and found it interesting for example, I would have to go much further when talking about a particular topic and make it a bit personal to me.
QOTD: How's everyone doing? Are you looking forward to Christmas? If you don't celebrate Christmas, what are you planning to do during this festive break?
On Monday afternoon, I travelled back to London from York via the train which I thought was going to be severely delayed because of the knock-off effects of the earlier incident that morning in Peterborough. Fortunately, I wasn't affected but my train was overcrowded because several trains running in front of mine were cancelled and social distancing on board was tricky - I had the seat next to me vacant for most of the journey. When I finally got to London, I decided to get Thameslink and not the Northern Line back to mine to avoid the crowds - it was actually cheaper as I don't have an Oyster Card and if I did, I would have to link it to my railcard to benefit from getting 1/3 off my fare. It cost me under £2 which isn't bad as the tube would've set me back around £5 I think with my contactless card and I would probably have to wait for a bit to get on tube due to rush hour.
It's nice to be back in London again in terms of seeing my family again and not having to cook for myself for a while (it's been a bit tricky as a student), but I do have quite a lot of work to catch up on and with crammed space and family members occasionally getting in my way, this will be a tremendous challenge. Fortunately, my sibling is at sixth form until next week so that will help a bit, but on the whole, I'm really going to struggle to get my assignments (I have 4!) done with the limited space and distractions around me.
On that note, I just had a private virtual meeting with the support services at uni to ask them to provide evidence for my exceptional circumstances claim for deadline extensions to my assignments as I've been struggling with my mental health this term and I don't find it helpful how my department admin emails me to clarify that they will accept evidence from the uni's support services as they realise it's hard to obtain evidence from a GP during this time. That's being sorted out by the end of the week and hopefully I can breathe a bit - it will help me to better balance out the workload and have some much needed downtime as well because the past 10 weeks have been truly hectic, in particular the last 5!
Anyways, I've not been up to much since I got back to London, but I've ordered myself a decent AKG wireless headphone from eBay which is brand new and got myself a bargain (kudos to my sibling - I don't normally shop on eBay
). It's essentially a present to myself aha as I'm currently stuck with cheap earphones (they're actually okay) which is starting to develop some issues with the sound. I might also meet up with a couple of friends from home who I haven't seen for a while, but it just depends on the situation. One of my best friends from home, TB, is currently working and idk when he's free so it'll be hard to meet up but I'll try. Atm, there's a lot of speculation that London might be placed into Tier 3 which isn't good news and honestly, it is what it is at this point - most of my friends from uni are from places currently in Tier 3 so if London does indeed move into Tier 3, I could at least relate with their experiences of the restrictions.

QOTD: How's everyone doing? Are you looking forward to Christmas? If you don't celebrate Christmas, what are you planning to do during this festive break?
Wednesday 16th December 2020
It's been over a week since I've returned home for the Christmas vacation and it's just feel weird being back in London after spending 10 weeks at uni in York. It's good to be back home with the family again, but I just have very little space to do my uni work and very little privacy which is a major problem and I'm contemplating whether I should return back to York sooner - the downside to that is I'll probably be on my own as one of my housemates is currently in London and the other is probably still in York or in Cumbria. I don't know.
Having said that, London is now in Tier 3 which absolutely sucks, but I didn't have a lot of plans beforehand anyways and this year has just been a really tough year for all. I guess the only plan I did have in mind was perhaps to meet up with a few close friends from London and perhaps do a bit of Christmas shopping. Now that's pretty much out of the window... oh well.
In terms of my Christmas plans, I'm trying my best to have some rest as the past 10 weeks have taken a toll on my health and well-being, it's just been extremely stressful and tiring, but at the same time, I'm struggling to manage my workload as I have 4 assignments to do over Christmas - I already have a 2 weeks deadline extension approved for exceptional circumstances.
Atm, I need to email my module convenor for The Policy Process a really rough essay plan for my formative assignment - I just need some feedback whether my approach to structuring the essay will work or not because otherwise, it's a really straightforward essay and I shouldn't have much issues with it. I'm also aiming to start planning my politics essay concurrently which is also really straightforward but planning essays in general can be tedious.
As for this evening, I'm planning to watch Hot Fuzz with some of my closest friends on Netflix Party and we'll also have a Zoom call in the background which will be enjoyable.
In other news, I've received my provisional timetable for Spring Term and all of my teaching is scheduled to be fully online which is rather daunting. I think there are also concurrent plans being made for when and if the restrictions allow for a return to blended learning so not all hope is lost, but atm, I think it's going to be another tough term ahead and I don't even want to fast forward to thinking about the next academic year! At least, it appears that I now have regular contact hours for all of my modules even if it's online which is really good. For my core module, Social Research Methods and one of my option modules, Victimisation and Social Harm, it looks like we have everyone together for online sessions and I don't know how that would work - I guess it's going to be a bit of trail and error. For the former module, I also have workshop sessions scheduled for later in the term so it'll be nice to have small group teaching as well. For my other option module, The Policy Process, there's only about 20 of us so we're divided into 3 seminar groups I beleive and it looks like we'll have weekly sessions now - that's good as I barely know anyone taking the module, but somehow know the module convenor fairly well. As for Politics in the UK, I've been assigned a new group and a new seminar group which I'm a bit bummed about because I really liked my seminar tutor for this term, but everything should be fine.
Speaking of the next academic year, I've registered my interest in doing a placement year via Handshake (our new careers platform which isn't student friendly to access) and so far, I've had a look for potential placements, but couldn't find any I was interested in. There was 2 I was interested in, but the application deadline is relatively soon and the start date doesn't work for me. I'm going to request a meeting with someone from Careers in January to advise me on my options. As you could probably imagine based from that, I'm also rather confused about accommodation for next year and I really don't want to rush with sorting that out because of various uncertainties - Brexit; Covid; and who will I be living with. So yeah, I'm rather stuck and I need to liaise with my current housemates about next year in January.
In terms of the potential placement year, I would ideally like to secure a placement that is focused on policy/government/politics as I want to do something policy related when I eventually graduate, but I would say I'm fairly open-minded. If anyone has any advice for me regarding a potential placement year, do tag me. Thanks!

Tuesday 22nd December 2020
It's almost a week since I last updated this blog and a lot has happened since... On Saturday, the PM announced new Tier 4 lockdown restrictions for London, South East and East of England which has been really difficult to take in - this is now the third lockdown I'd have experienced and it's very disappointing that I would be able to spend Christmas with my closest relatives on Christmas Day only as this is NOT allowed under Tier 4 lockdown restrictions. I've also been struggling with my mental health (again) with intermittent symptoms and it's not surprising that by now, we've managed to get into each other's heads since I have very limited personal space at home - inevitably this has led to quite a few arguments which aren't ideal.
Anyways, I've been trying my hardest to balance the Christmas workload which is to get all 4 of my summative assignments completed by the extended deadline I had approved due to extenuating circumstances (which is W/B 25th January) and having some time to literally unwind. Atm, that has been a proper struggle as I'm finding it nearly impossible to get any work done from London although I'm now making progress with planning my assignments for Politics in the UK and The Policy Process - I just need to sort out sources I'm going to use and start writing the essay bit by bit.
I've also tried to avoid stressing out over options for my placement year and accommodation for next year, but unfortunately, it has taken its toll on me. I intend to have a virtual 1:1 meeting with Careers and Placement team at my uni in January regarding the possibility of doing a placement year. It's not been helpful thinking about accommodation for next year as I don't yet know whether I'll be staying in York or living in London for a year and it has made discussions about accommodation for next year rather awkward and difficult with my current housemates. Currently, I've told them about the predicament I'm in and made clear my situation, but they haven't said anything else. It's just really stressful as I'm trying not to think continually about the Covid situation and the increasing risk of a No Deal Brexit and how that will create havoc in terms of the employment market and opportunities for a placement year.
With the limited free time I have, I've been trying my best to keep in touch with uni friends via Zoom (I really miss them) just so I'm not missing out on actually having a social life lmao - we've done Netflix parties; Among Us games night (including hide and seek in Among Us - basically the imposter has to try and find the crewmates and kill them to win, but in the dark); Skribbl.io; and Psych! I haven't really spoken to friends from home except for one of my closest friends who's been busy with work, but we've talked about how our former GCSE French teacher has apparently left my former secondary/sixth form and how I was finding uni - he just reassured me that essentially everything will be ok and ofc, I wished him a happy festive break.

Since I last updated, I'm really struggling with my mental health and finding it incredibly difficult to cope with the current health crisis - it's virtually impossible to avoid news about it, no matter how hard you try. I'm also finding it difficult to work from home and my plans to return to York for uni has been torn apart tonight. Originally, I was meant to be travelling back up to York this morning, but I had second thoughts and cancelled my train ticket - LNER have kindly refunded it in full. Having said that, I did intend to go back up a few weeks later than planned so I could spend a bit more time with my family and try to work on my assignments. Now I can't...
TL;DR I'm really struggling with everything and really worried that I'm failing my second year - I don't want that to be the reality. I just feel like I've barely stopped working since last term started and I'm just mentally and physically exhausted. I'm going to contact my academic supervisor asap.
I don't know what else to say in this update except for the fact that I did actually have a decent Christmas with the family despite everything going on. Atm, I've done nothing about accommodation for next year due to uncertainty about whether I'll do a placement year or go straight into my final year despite a friend and my housemates doing my head in about it. As for the placement year stuff, I think I need to arrange a meeting with the Careers and Placements Team so I'll do that soon.
I guess I'll end this post by saying that my DM's are open if anyone wants to have a chat and please STAY AT HOME. PROTECT THE NHS. SAVE LIVES.
P.S. Really struggling to get my assignments done - I'm halfway into my politics one.

That’s so sad to hear about man. I don’t have the right words to say but please speak to someone, SOMEBODY. don’t conceal it, it will just kill you.
Do you have January exams of some sort?
For placements, I hope you’re applying already because competition is tough. What sector would you like to go in?

the situtation atm is rubbish i really hope talking to your academic supervisor helps lift some of the stress off you

I've spoken to some other friends about how I'm doing at least but will be arranging a supervisor meeting for the end of the month to just to have a check-in and stuff.
I don't have any January exams of some sort, but I'm currently working on assignments which I've got an extended deadline for the end of the month. It's taking me a lot longer to get things done because I don't really have an appropriate workspace in London. I've got the politics assignment done and have already planned two assignments for The Policy Process (SPY00002I) and Victimisation and Social Harm (SPY00016I) which I'll start writing soon. I also got a reflective journal for Social Research Methods (SPY00012I) which I'll do last - it's quite straightforward.
As far as placements are concerned, I do need to act quickly and start looking as you're right about the level of competition. I'd quite like to do something policy-related in the future and the Careers Team have already emailed me about a placement with the Houses of Parliament.
I hope your assessments/exams are going well!

i really hope talking to your academic supervisor helps lift some of the stress off youThank you! The current situation is just rubbish and frustrating - I hope the current lockdown will be the last, but we just don't know atm. Anyways, I'll be getting in touch with my academic supervisor to keep him in the loop with things.
Just a short while ago, I had a video call with a close friend of mine who does the same module as me to ask him some questions about the assignment as I'm baffled by the recommended, unconventional essay structure (they don't want an introduction and conclusion per se) because we have to link a theory to some case scenarios. The call just really helped with clearing some misunderstanding I had about the assignment and my friend thinks I've got a solid plan for linking the theory to the case scenarios and how to pick the theory apart.
Atm, I'm feeling less stressed which is good, but things should be more manageable once I get all these assignments done and dusted.
