Anyone else cramming for an exam in the coming weeks?
I'm sitting at home with papers all over my room, Travis blasting out of the pc speakes, an unnatural craving for all things sweet and doing everything else than reading what I'm supposed to read. One would have thought that I would have a better technique for studying after 20 or so courses at uni.... But nooooo. Gah. |

Not cramming, but working on my dissertation. Basically nopt sleeping at night, so that I can get it all done before Christmas, as I don't want to have to go back up the Newcastle upon Tyne to hand it in when I'm back in La Rochelle. If I can get this new version done by Christmas, I can just pop up to Newcy from my Grandma's place in the East Riding of Yorkshire.
How to get through it? Constantly refill the cafetiere and put on some good music. At the moment, I'm revisiting some of the older stuff, like this! |

Dissertation is actualy like the ultimae punishment. So much work to do. Today though I've been in uni writing up a case study for entrepreneurship. Not fun. This band, Box Club, have been keeping me semi sane all day

PS hope it's decent quality. Can't watch it cos I'm in the uni library and the computers are rubbish. |

It's been a long time since I last did any cramming, but I remember classical music being very helpful (especially with Swedish, that was so hard!)
Bach's Brandenburg concerto was my favourite.
Something like this:

Pop music was ok for maths ;^) |
