2013: Week 2

This week has been all about getting back into Uni life.

 The first few days were spent on solid revision for the exam I had on Wednesday. I found this really hard for a couple of reasons. The more I revised, the more I realised that I didn't really know a lot of the content for one of the modules in the exam. The more I realised this, the more I stressed out about it. The more I stressed out about it, the more I wished I was still at home with my family. The more I sat there missing my family, the more I realised I was wasting precious revision time. It was a vicious cycle. I managed to do a load of revision. I went through two revision guides, and filled half an A4 notebook with notes and exam practise.

So you can imagine that when it got to Wednesday evening, and I could tick off the exam, a huge weight lifted from me, and I began to relax back into my Uni routine.

I even managed to polish off a big plate full of pasta. I was meant to take a picture before I ate it, but I came out of my exam REALLY hungry!

I looked up at my desk and noticed that Pascal seems to look happier than usual. I'm not sure why that is...

I no longer have ducks outside my building in the morning. Instead I have Canada Geese. And let me tell you, they are huge. Quite terrifying really.

My new chalk board has been put to good use already. I actually really love it. It is the coolest thing ever. Makes me feel proper geeky :)

I got woken up at 3.40 this morning by a fire alarm, and had to stand outside in the freezing cold for 10 minutes. In my pyjamas. I was meant to be asleep -.- I did however get to go to archery for the first time since the beginning of last term (oops!) today. I think I'm actually quite good at it, for a beginner anyway. My arm wasn't so convinced though...

It's amazing the damage a piece of string can do! I had fun though, and can't wait to go again next week :)

So that was my week. More pictures and hopefully blog posts next week!

Monday Maths Madness 10

This is one I see all over the place, especially on Facebook. It's pretty self explanatory I think. Simple and funny.

sin(x) doesn't quite work like that... Extra points for creativity though maybe? And they are right, six does equal 6.

This is one to hurt your head. I've not actually worked out where the contradiction actually comes into it. It's too late for that right now... (I'm very tired ok!) This is exactly the sort of thing that makes my sister hate maths. She still can't convince me though :)

Four pictures today, you lucky things! This one a friend sent to me. I didn't actually know that one Newton per square metre is a Pascal, but I think you get the jist of the joke anyway (well, I did). It made me giggle, so I thought I'd share it.

Well that's it for this week. Enjoy :)
