The begining of a new term...

Me, Myself and I...

I can't believe the first week of uni this term is over!

I have just finished my first week at uni and so far so good! I really like all my subjects, and marine bio is very interesting indeed! We are learning about esteries which are places where rivers fall into the open ocean, and about the underwater life that lives there! So great! English is very interesting also! We are learning about the different types of poetry such as ballards and sonnets. We will soon be studying shakespears 'twelfth night' play and also 'Northanger Abbey' novel by Jane Austen! So far I'm loving english heaps, and the lecturers are great! I was reading 'Northanger Abbey' yesterday and mum asked me what I was doing and I'm like "I'm studying!!!" Hehehe isn't that great, I get to read classical novels and can call it 'study'!!! A nice change from reading textbooks!!

Hehehehe! It's study for english!! So happy!! I even have my friend Sophia from Korea who is in my english class. We were so surprised to see each other! I'm very glad that she is in my class!

At the moment reading Sherlock Holmes Mysteries in Russian!
Recently recieved my ordered book from America! The complete novel by

Connan Doyle of Sherlock Holmes Mysteries! (in English!!)

Bio lab was fine, not too long and my new lab partner is nice (I only met her when I came into the lab and did't have a partner and neither did she) so that's fine. My lab partner from last term no longer does the bio lab course. Genetics is good so far too, haven't done any proper genetics since yr12, so it feels great to do it again! I almost forgot how much I loved genetics! It has always been my favourite topic in biology.

My days turned out quite short too, like on monday I have classes at 9am, 11am and 12mid and then I go home. Tuesday is my day off, Wednesday is my only long day because I have my bio lab, but normally it doesn't last for the whole 4 hours. Thursday I only have 2 classes and go home at 12. Friday I don't go in at all. That means that I have plenty of time to do independent study, which I really like to do!

I think this term I will enjoy my courses way more than the last so that should go well! Last term they were quite monotonous, but this term they are all indeed very different! Variation is good!! I realised that I'm terrible at specializing at something since I want to learn about EVERYTHING, and not just particular areas (ie last term all my papers were related to molecular bio! ugh!)!!!

On Wednesday 11th June, me and my family went to see 'Harry Potter and the order of Phoenix'!! It was amazing!! I loved it sooo much! I think it is my favourite Harry Potter movie next to 'Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone'!! And my favourite character is still Hermione!
