almost like working!

Uni this week is madness. We have classes every day from 9:30 until 5:30, other than thursday when we have a field trip to London, leaving here at 8am and not getting back until 7:30ish. This isn't what being a student is all about! I'm meant to be able to sleep until 10 most days and only attend three hours class at most each day. hahaha, i've just read that again - it is funny how easily i have fallen back into the student lifestyle. Love the sleep ins and not having to do too much. Just as well that this week is a session of really interesting lectures on making histories within museums, and mostly working with a lecturer who I think is fabulous. She is really passionate about the subject, but has done enough work in museums to be practical in her approaches. So today went really quickly, despite having 6.5 hours of classes.

Holidays start next week. I've been planning all sorts of things to spend what little spare cash i have. Musicals, theatre trips, visits to friends, explorations of other parts of the country... and museums of course. Ah what fun, 5 weeks without a single lecture, only one 2,000 word essay to do and maybe some reading for the dissertation if i feel energetic. I do like being a student. Not that I'm bragging or rubbing it in (much). For all those feeling jealous right now, think of me in July and August when I'll be working full time for free. I won't be quite so pleased with myself then.
