Chronicles of a Third year Foodie


gyg2.png



I'm Chronoscope, and welcome to the final edition of the Chrono Chronicles! :thumbsup:. This year I'm heading into my 3rd year doing Food Science. I really can't believe where the time has gone. :sadnod:. It only feels like yesterday I was writing my foundation year blog.

For this year I'm living in private halls :biggrin: and its been so good so far! :yep: The bus is closer than last year, there's an Aldi within a bus journey (unlike last year). There's a hospital 4 minutes away (WHICH I HOPEFULLY WON'T BE NEEDING!), I hope unlike last year which treated me to a gallbladder attack :yikes: Moving on, my part time job is local to me here, and I've managed to save enough after working nearly all summer, so I'm fortunate to have an ensuite :love: I've got 5 other flatmates, and I've met 2/6 so far.

What's new/Random stuff about me



How second year went!



Third year modules


I've got my timetable for third year, and was slightly overwhelmed when I looked at it :eek3:



It looks so busy, but hopefully I the second > third year leap won't be as much as the first > second year one.

Goals for 3rd year

Idek why i didn't update last years blog as much as my foundation/first year. But aiming to be more active on here as its the final year, and I wanna ace this :thumbsup: luckily a lot of my stuff is hopefully coursework this year so I won't be overloaded with exams, like last year

On Monday and Tuesday, I had seminars, but they were just for only 1 hour, and were just introducing us to the module and what assessments we'd be doing. Yesterday evening, I attended a taster session for the sci-fi society which was really good! We watched a couple of episodes with the Doctor and Donna, more specifically the Runaway Bride, and Partners in Crime :yep:



Today was my first proper morning of third year (and the first 9am since May I think!). Ofc the bus was late, and I was 5 minutes late to class :hide: There was also an intro lesson to planning our research project :afraid:



Went home after, currently feeling slightly tired :sleep: overall was a pretty good morning.

:hi: Long time no see. Did I forget I had a GYG blog again... maybe :hide:
Term has been pretty hectic but surprisingly fun. I've gone down to 1 shift at work, and that's pretty manageable. I was worried what my parents would say when I told them I was doing 1 shift a week instead of 2... but they were lovely about it :love: Even though two shifts a week was pretty ok I think I was still finding things overwhelming, so its nice just to have a Sunday off especially now my uni timetable is so I'm in every day now :sleep: I'm in my granny era already because some days I'm in bed by 9pm!
