How Was Your Day?

[Guest]

Almost anything that could go wrong today, went wrong. On top of that, I feel totally useless, and wonder what the hell I am doing.

Oh well.

[StanSP]

Apart from waking up early, had a quality day.

Chilled at mates for a bit, played a bit of pool. Had our own little tournament. I won .

Then drank a bit but seem to have sobered up .

[AoWW]

I've been confused all day.

My grandma lost her battle with pneumonia and passed away at 1pm this afternoon, the 2nd big loss in our family in the last 3 weeks. Seriously want this year to end now.

Damn.

Condolences go out to you and your family.

My day has been remotely productive. When I say productive I mean we've just taped up my flat mate's door from the outside so he'll walk into a sea of brown tape tomorrow. Even though he blatantly knew what we were doing. Ah well.

P.s. Sorry to hear about your Grandma Jamie, hope you're dealing with it alright mate.

Found out I either have to drop the chance to earn an extra 5 points to my overall score for my degree or drop playing tennis for the Uni team which I love doing... not a choice I want to make as either way, I'm letting someone down.

Many condolances for your loss. Last year was horrendous for me and my family. It will get better, I hope your run of bad luck stops soon

[Tommeh]

Horrified to hear that Jamie, hope your coping well mate. Biggest sympathy.

Woke up this morning with half an hour to make a seminar, a broken iPhone and Wayne brown andy king and Carl Cort written on my arm in flurescent highlighter. Sign of a good night.

Off to Lincoln uni for the weekend to see a mate tomorrow which should be a serious hoot.

MUCH better.

[StanSP]

No lecture til Monday.

Out tonight in Uxbridge. Should be fun.

[Libertine]

Feel moooooch better now. I'm in the process of convincing my Ma to let me take my bootiful lady to see Morrissey instead of her. Not an easy task to say the least but going quite well so far.

[CosbehFox]

I feel a generation older, pouncing around Cov Uni...I can tell certain folk are younger than myself. Also feel fitter...no weight loss but I am building muscle (that sounds camp), did 2 miles quick the other day. Try the 3.3 mile griller up the hills tomorrow evening.

[Tommy G]

Yesterday was shit to say he least. Thank goodness it's the weekend at 5 today

Justapplied for some Psychology Research Participation studies at Uni.

Should be beneficial for ourselves, and of course the students in 3rd and 4th years who are conducting the research, so everyone's a winner .

Classic source of Fresher income.

Classic source of Fresher income.

We don't get paid for it . We get credits which go towards final marks.

By beneficial I mean that it helps us see how research is conducted professionally in the real world. In a few years time I'll be looking for freshers for my research so it gives us a feel of what to expect while we are here

Ah OK.

I used to do them for the cash. Dead easy work.

Yeah. Were they for Uni or more widespread research??

In ours we get the option to listen to the debrief and then have a choice 2 options:

1. Detailed briefing with a 'walkthrough'
   
2. Actually do the study and take part fully
   

Option 1 is for those who feel uncomfortable after hearing what they might have to do. But you still get the benefits of learning what goes on in a study.

Erm, mostly postgraduate student projects. Doubt I was all that helpful to them. I just took the money and ran.
