Posted on 17th June 2008

I submitted my final report today. My dissertation if you will. It was not as dramatic a moment as imagined but I did feel somewhat relieved that it was now done. I have however spent the entire day worried that I might have missed something, or that the report was not actually as well done as I imagined. I also can’t remember whether I proof read it other than at 9am in the morning when I hadn’t slept the previous night. Hmm… guess I may be slightly paranoid.

Anyway, E’s put some photos up on fb of the party the other night. I’m really gutted that more photos weren’t taken. I guess we’ll find out what’s on the single-use cameras. I also don’t recall a single pic of us two in a pic but I do hope there is one. *fingers crossed* Hopefully a load of other people took photos too. I should have had a group photo taken too, hmmm

I am absolutely exhausted today. After the initial elation had worn off and the adrenaline died down my body just turned itself off. I feel slightly bad for falling asleep next to the guys working on their reports but I really did need that power nap.

Hmmm, early night and late morning would be nice!

Posted on 7th May 2008

After a long days work of revision, I thought I’d share my wonderful revision techniques with you:

1. Use colour for visual stimulation:
Revision Notes

I suggest different colours to emphasise different points. Another technique is layering so once the initial notes have been made, add more scribbles to highlight key points. In my case, I just write the key points with a big red highlighter pen.

2. Cue cards/post-its also help:
Post-It

I suppose it helps if the cue cards were for the relevant module.

3: Regular breaks prevent brain fatigue, so I take a look outside:
Westminster

It’s amazing how interesting the London Eye is. I also saw 2 Chinooks, 3 RAF fighter jets, possibly Typhoons, a few regular helicopters, and private jets on their approach to City airport, a few birds and a man out that window today. The man was a surprise – not being on the ground floor it isn’t everyday that people walk by your window. There is a walled ledge though – design feature or maintenance practicality?

4. Drink plenty of fluids, preferably non-alcoholic.

5. Sleep, which is what I’ll be doing soon ^^
