It's Sunday morning, and I've been sitting at the table next to the porthole window going through my psych texts and notes. I'm co-presenting a seminar in two weeks on the development of language in children, have an essay to hand in next week (which is pretty much finished thankfully!), and another essay due in about 8 weeks, but have a load of revision to be getting on with, and lecture notes to type up in the mean-time. The second essay I am working on is a critical evaluation of the dopamine model of schizophrenia. Schizophrenia is a fascinating area - if you've got any questions on it ask me and I'll find out the answers for you and consider it part of my study!

The best part of this morning has been all the little birds coming to the feeders on the porthole window, softly chirrupping their delight through the open window. It's a lovely noise by which to study.

And now, we're off to Highbury for Arsenal vs Stoke in the FA Cup competition!
