Survey
So i have a survey i need to have done but obviously i left till last minute to do:/
If anyone could answer this I’d really appreciate it, takes 2 minutes!
https://forms.office.com/Pages/ResponsePage.aspx?id=rs8Gj9UihEykbT2-PJNVjZ9Wv62gac1Bj8DIAKVaE31UMUo5QVM5V1RCVkNNVFNLSzlWTUlUUVVDVS4u
DON’T: Have a poor opening. Don’t start with: “Hi, my name is [NAME], and I’m going to be discussing [TOPIC].” Your opening should have a similar structure to an introduction on a paper. Which means that you should have context, a main message, and a preview. Your opening is the first part of your presentation, so make sure that grab your audience’s attention from the start.
DO: Prepare in advance. Allow yourself enough time to prepare your presentations as well as your visual aids. Please don’t try to make presentations in two days or wing it. Your teacher can tell the difference between a well-thought-out presentation and something you scrambled together at the last minute.
DON’T: Put too much information on your slides. Your classmates will end up reading the slides instead of actually listening and your teacher won’t be impressed. Opt for a small amount of information using a bullet-point structure instead.
DO: Be logical. Your presentation should have a clear beginning, middle, and end. Avoid having topics that are all over the place.
DON’T: Read your presentation. According to a survey AMA ran, that is the #1 most annoying presentation habit and I understand why. You look unprofessional and the audience has no reason to keep listening to you because they can read the slide themselves. To avoid this, as I’ve mentioned in the second point, keep your slides minimal. You should also have flashcards or speaker notes, but they shouldn’t be overloaded with information either, or you’ll read those.
DO: Be creative. No one likes a boring presentation so don’t be afraid of adding some flair to your presentation. A little bit of creativity will make your presentation more enjoyable, and if it’s enjoyable, your audience will better grasp the message of your presentation.
DON’T: Make terrible font choices. You should use a clean typeface. Contrary to popular belief, serif fonts are just as good as sans-serif fonts in terms of legibility. Just make sure that the font you use is easy to read, even your headers. You also want your font sizes to be big enough. So, avoid text smaller than 18px.
DO: Be mindful of your body language. Avoid crossing your arms, fidgeting, and putting your hands in your pockets. Make eye contact with the audience instead of constantly looking at the screen and just relax. Your audience can sense if you’re nervous. There’s not a cure for nervousness out there for those us who have problems with public speaking. Just practice a lot. If you know your presentation very well then you’ll feel more confident about presenting it.
DON’T: Have low energy. Even if you’re presenting about a topic that doesn’t interest you, you better be speaking as if it’s your passion. Showing enthusiasm and active interest will make your presentation so much better. If you speak with a monotonous voice and have a dull facial expression, your grade will suffer—hard.
DO: Finish with a bang. Briefly sum up your presentation, restate your message and finish off in a way that makes your audience reflect and think about your topic. This is the time to be elegant and make a lasting final impression.

Tips on writing an essay from my history professor
1. If you approach writing as a mystical event where you sit down at a blank page and expect to be visited by divine inspiration, you’re fucked. Writing is not a talent, it is a skill. It is a muscle. If you don’t use it, it dies.
2. Be comfortable with writing absolute garbage. Get all your thoughts down: write shit. Then edit; devote 50% of your time or more to editing. This is when you write your thesis. This is when you decide where paragraphs are.
3. Know how to use a comma. If you use more than two in a sentence, it’s too many. You’re doing something wrong. In American writing, beauty is not in the length and complexity of a sentence. Beauty is in short sentences, with a variety of structures.
4. If you can cut a word, cut it. Ask yourself, do I really need all these words? Keep only what is necessary, leave room for the important stuff.
5. Avoid canned expressions. The phrase ‘a needle in a haystack’ was effective the first time it was used in an essay – it no longer is. It would be better to write the most boring sentence than to write a cliche metaphor that serves no purpose.
6. When you use the word “which” you should probably be using the word “that.” If you don’t know, assume it should be “that.”
7. Avoid obscure vocabulary or jargon. Obscure vocabulary displays nothing about your intelligence or academic success.
8. Read good writing with the intention of absorbing how those authors write successfully.

Update(really it's a rant)
So had my exam yesterday and I'm not expecting to know the results until next week. However I was so thrown off by it!!
The topics that were to be covered was the thyroid, parathyroid, acid and bases, the kidneys and the respiratory system. And do u wanna know the 1st question that came up was?
Why is Human Physiology important in a students learning discipline?
It was worth 10 marks out of 100 and I still had 28 questions left to do! I want to know is this a normal question to get asked cause I'm pretty sure I just stared at it for 4 mins going 'huh'😵
No questions regarding the respiratory system came up and one of the questions had the options of high low or normal, and what was the question?? I have no idea since there was no question attacked to it!!
This happened twice and its not like I could go back to look at it again cause the setting on the exam was once a question was answered or even just by hitting the next question if ur stuck you couldn't go back to it.
The whole class is still waiting on a response of it we get docked marks or not. It with that rant over I just have one more exam and I'm free for a week, so might as well focus on the positives. Sorry bout the rant 😅
Can't think of anything better than to go into 3 exams a week after Christmas break(note the sarcasm😒)
I haven't been able to get up past 11 for the past 3 days and I've got an exam worth 40% tomorrow starting at 10am. Bets that I don't get up in time are very high. And to top it all off its human Physiology which is my least favourite module😅😭
2|100
I made good progress with editing today, and now I’m working on my PhD topic and make some notes for the upcoming supervision meeting. I hope you all have a productive Tuesday.

Today for some reason I woke up quite inspired to write?? So I wrote part of my review on Georg Simmel bc there’ll be a test on his work next month
This is organised chaos😁
I've got an open book exam in an hour in biochemistry, an exam in evaluating nutritional evidence tomorrow and lab reports due for Thursday.
I don't feel as stressed as I usually do but maybe it's because the exams worth more (human Physiology is 40%) are after Christmas for me. And now after writing that panic is beginning to set in😫😭
Then I'm finished with exams until the 4th of January and can enjoy Christmas until then🎅🤶🎄🎁✨
Have been awake of the past 27 hours, running on tea and popcorn trying to get yet another essay in for the same lecturer as before for a different class. I'm only halfway through the word count
Is it gonna be incredible? No
Is it gonna be in on time? Absolutely not
Does what I'm doing have anything to do with the topic? Honestly can't remeber
But gosh darn it, it is going to be in and submitted before this weekends out!!!!! (the deadline's in 7 hrs, kinda know its not gonna be in for then😅)
You’ve heard of
Netflix And Chill
Now get ready for
Sleep Deprivation And Fanfiction ™
Been away for a bit but everything just got crazy at college fort he past 2 weeks
Had 3 exams, an essay durle and an oral presentation which I found the worst out of everything. Is it just me when it come to team presentation that there's always one who expect the rest of us to hold there had or no?😠
It's over now anyways so it's time to focus on my exam on the kidneys and getting my lab report about Dna and polymerase done and out of the way🔬😉
So I have an essay due it 8 hours which I have only started now. It must be 2000 words, have 15 references and follow a certain format. Instead of actually doing my work, BTW this essay is work like 25% of my overall grade for this module, I have been looking at videos at how to make the perfect pasta dish or soup dish. Does anyone else have this problem or is it just me??
The only way I could possibly have this done on time is if I put on Mario kart music and nobody can change my mind about it
