Our network is currently up the creek and missing its paddle so I thought I'd spend my time constructively and tell you about my studies this year! I'm doing four units over the year - Developmental Psychology on Thursday nights, Social Psychology on Friday nights, and Research Methods (statistics) on Tuesday nights. Next term we swap Developmental for Psychobiology II. Stats is going surprisingly well, I think I might have cracked it. Of course we haven't started on Analysis of Variance yet which is apparently a nightmare!

As I was student rep last year I've been contacted by two different students to hopefully help set up a Psychology Society for the university, which should be interesting and fun! Fun gets a little short in supply when so many hours of my day are taken up at work or in lectures. Still, I always find it wherever I can! My stats lecturer is very serious and stern and does not let us ask questions during the lecture as it 'disrupts her flow'. So, I found this pen at the weekend with a bright yellow duck on the end of it, surrounded by bright yellow feathers, which lights up when you start writing with it! I am planning on sitting about three rows from the front right in her line of vision and taking down copious notes so my little duck pen lights up right in front of her. A couple of my friends are apparently taking bets as to how she will react!! I'll let you know...!!
