Luckily for me, I rarely have 9am lectures \u2013 I guess the Psychology lecturers don\u2019t want to start work at the crack of dawn either!<\/p>\n

8:30<\/em><\/strong> \u00a0I wake up, with great difficulty, and cobble a socially acceptable outfit together. By the time I\u2019ve finished getting ready it\u2019s time to catch the U3 bus to Uni, which couldn\u2019t be easier with the bus stop right outside my house.<\/p>\n

9:40<\/em><\/strong> \u00a0When I get to Uni, I usually have 20 minutes or so spare before my lecture so I head to Starbucks to pick up a caramel macchiato, by which point it\u2019s\u00a0usually time to accept my fate and go to the Lees Lecture Theatre\u2026<\/p>\n\"Starbucks\"<\/a>\n

10:00<\/em><\/strong> \u00a0First on the agenda is a Clinical and Developmental Psychology lecture which consists of information we will need for exams as well as giving out information on upcoming assignments.<\/p>\n

11:00<\/em><\/strong> \u00a0Luckily I don\u2019t have a lecture after this one so I\u2019m just in time for Dylan\u2019s fry up as they stop \u00a0serving it at 12pm- a tradition for me and my course mates.<\/p>\n

13:00<\/em><\/strong> \u00a0Next, I have an Experimental Methods and Statistical Analysis lecture, the only module that continues throughout the entire year.<\/p>\n

14:00<\/em><\/strong> \u00a0Following this lecture, I have a Clinical and Developmental Psychology seminar, an easy place to ask questions about assignments and expand on the lecture earlier on in the day.<\/p>\n

15:00<\/em><\/strong> \u00a0After this I\u2019ll meet up with a friend and we\u2019ll head to the library and we\u2019ll either go through lectures, revise for exams, plan out assignments or, let\u2019s face it, more commonly just catch up with a second Starbucks of the day.<\/p>\n

17:30<\/em><\/strong> \u00a0Depending on the day, I will head off to choir practice; a session either putting the finishing touches to pieces for a performance, or ploughing through new pieces to learn the general gist.<\/p>\n\"Choir<\/a>\n

19:30<\/em><\/strong> \u00a0After a busy day I love to head to Stokewood Leisure Centre to do a few lengths in the pool – not forgetting a quick relax in the sauna afterwards.<\/p>\n

21:00<\/em><\/strong> \u00a0After swimming I finally make the trek home (3 minute walk). I\u2019m usually too knackered to go \u201cout out\u201d so I gather the whole house for a game of monopoly\u2026oops\u2026too late\u2026the board has been thrown across the room and everyone has locked themselves in their room. I guess it\u2019s time to go to bed!<\/p>\n
