Totally exhuasted, still trying to type this lab report that I've been trying to do for the last couple of days, getting somewhere finally but its not that great. Efficientcy of work has linearly decreased each week. I seem to be finding maths the easiest (well it is engineering maths) and enjoyable, but because of that I'm putting less time and effort into it to make up for the other subjects. Trying to make every half and hour count each day (dw I'm still taking breaks), problem is I can do that for two days straight before I seem to crack on that scheme. The week break is hopefully going to allow me to catch back up on a couple of things (might actually find time to do some questions for once, hopefully). Although a couple of days after handing in the maths assignment, we are given the next one......

Determination is everything
+1!
Motivation is the key!, I'M NOT GIVING UP YET! It's only the first semester! IT CAN STILL BE DONE!

On a side note, uni has made me lose a couple of kgs originally, then gain a couple more than I lost, which for me is probably a good thing, as long as it balances back out later on.

yeah you really got to have the motivation to do well. otherwise if you dont truly put the effort in, you dont get results.

Medicine is definetly a step up from biomedicine, you really cant afford to let urself fall behind. We have already had 100hours or so of lectures in our foundation subjects and we have been going at it since beginning of feb. Very much looking forward to taking a bit of a breather these holidays, but also go back and consolidate some of the cardio and respiratory stuff before they pile more stuff onto us.

I have about 4 assignments now, a maths one, an online chem one and two bio one. Some are short and easy fortunately enough.
