Monday, 15.12 ~ 12/50 days of productivity

Last week of term, whoop! Some photos from the past week. Good news I’ve finished my essay, bad news I’ve got an exam and then I’m free for Christmas break. Today was probably the busiest day of this week, I had 5 lectures and I forgot to pack lunch because I got back late on Sunday so I had to buy lunch :(. I got my results for my practicals and it went as well as I expected so I’m a bit meh about it but apart from that I’ve just been revising today :)

Saturday, 03.01 ~ 15/50 days of productivity

It’s been a hot minute since I’ve posted study update. I’m currently on Christmas break and I said I would lock in - I’ve got a week left until I go back to uni and today is the first day I’ve revised. I’ve been kind of ill and also been busy hanging with friends and stuff. Did a bit of light revision, revising the modules I’ve found easiest to ease myself into this week of revision. I also did some work that was set in October (it didn’t have a due date it was just and exercise that they advised us to do 💀).

I meal prepped some cookies that I can take back next Sunday so I can make myself sweet treats and save money.

❓any new year resolutions?

Saturday, 08/11 ~ 3/50 days of productivity

Today I attempted to do a study crawl it was slightly successful. The first cafe I stopped in had no WiFi (it didn’t work) so I immediately left after covering one topic to go to my uni. The last stop was suppose to be a library, I thought it closed at 8pm but turns out it was 5pm so ran some errands and went home to finish the rest of the studying

I was able to review a good bit of work so I’m happy, definitely will do another study crawl!

10/10/25 - start of term!

First study post of the term! I’ve been wanting to post something but have been so distracted (I’ve mainly been sleeping). I had freshers week last week and now this week my classes have started up again, I’ve got a list of stuff I need to catch up with on the weekend! I’ve been soo ill, I attended one freshers event but literally everyone around me is ill like in and out of the flat :(.

Reminder - lab write up

Thursday, 13/11 ~ 4/50 days of productivity

So this past week has been very weird. I’ve been very productive on some days and others not as much. I’ve been very busy with rowing this week and another commitment that has been cancelled (?). Hopefully Friday onwards will be a bit more productive. I had a lab today which was really useful as it helped me to apply my knowledge to what we learnt. I had to go over 3 lectures because I accidentally overslept and missed two and the last one I couldn’t really hear or understand….

Wednesday, 25.02 ~ 39-40/50 days of productivity

Had a fairly busy day today, although Wednesday is a half day I had 4 lectures (maybe 3 given I did fall asleep in the third one) but for some reason I’ve been soo knackered. I also dropped my lunch which meant I had to buy lunch at uni :,). We’ve started doing some repro which is fun and I spent my afternoon finishing up flashcards and the going over some comparative anatomy between horses and pigs - a little bit of blurting and a LOT a bit of flashcards haha.

❓perfect day consists of…?

Wednesday, 19/11 ~ 6/50 days of productivity

Reading week this week, so I’ve just been revising what we’ve been doing so far! The start of the week was going really well but today I found it so hard to study. It might have been because my period was really bad, which is really weird because today is day 3 and usually my cramps are the worst on day 1. I have a formative exam this Friday, I’m trying hard not to stress too much as I it doesn’t count towards my overall mark it’s just a mock for people to get familiar. I just want to do well and I’m still struggling with how to revise 🫠

Thursday, 05.02 ~ 30-31 days of productivity

Unfortunately I have become very ill, so most of today I spent sleeping so not much got done (basically nothing). Yesterday was fairly productive, I spent a lot of time at uni which was great. I annotated this paper to try and practise for one of my final papers, just to get better at annotating and doing notes on them. I had a great evening yesterday and maybe had one too many drinks… :,)
