So, I'm writing a blog entry when I should actually be working on a task for university, then again I've worked hard today already, everyone deserves a break right?. I've spent a number of hours at university today and did a range of things, so I'm as happy as can be at the moment, despite feeling quite tired.
I woke up just after half past seven this morning and was instantly in a bad mood because I'd planned on waking up at 5am to do a few things before I headed out to university at half past nine. I not had just under two hours to shower, wash my hair, get dressed and have something to eat, it seemed like mission impossible. However, I woke up pretty quickly and managed to be ready to leave the house by 9:28 ... result. I was in even more luck when the direct bus from my bus stop to university arrived about five minutes after I got to the bus stop.
I arrived outside the room that my tutorial was help in about ten minutes before it was due to start. My friend Sandeep was already there waiting, it was to see her and have a ten minute catch up before our tutor arrived. I hadn't seen her for a few weeks, so there was a lot of gossip to share. A grand total of 4 students turned up to the tutorial, but to be frank that seems about average, we just tend to get different people turning up in different weeks and there are never more than five students present. Today's tutorial was about a task we were supposed to have done in preparation for the tutorial. However, I hadn't done much reading but still managed to contribute to the session quite a bit. I started my usual rant about The Daily Mail, that seems to come into every tutorial we have. I know people will always remember me for my Daily Mail rants and something else that I don't wish to disclose online. The actual topic for the tutorial was "Power and Knowledge" and it was pretty interesting. We addressed the questions "what is knowledge" and "does having knowledge mean you have power" from a scientific / philosophical stand point, I was surprised how much I knew about the topic despite not doing much reading around, I think I've just picked aspects of it up from things that I've read throughout my degree. During the tutorial I was informed that my essay grade had been uploaded to the university system, so I logged into the computer to check my grade. I got another A =] I'm so proud of myself (yet again).
After tutorial, Sandeep and I headed towards the library as we both had the objective to get some dissertation work done. I managed to type up the method section of my dissertation and then did some reading for the cyberpsychology online task that I mentioned a few days ago. I left university at about 3:05pm feeling happy with what I'd achieved but also feeling somewhat tired. My bus arrived at about half past three and took around an hour to arrive at my bus stop. When I got home I ate some food and had a drink and now I'm considering having a nap before I start working again. I'll probably post another blog later on to make up for the lack of detail in this entry, I feel I have much more to say =D
