Semester: I think I'm starting to learn how much I hate randomly allocated groups for groupwork. Otherwise okayish, it's only week 5 though!
This week: It feels like I'm stuck in week 2, as I have such a lack of assessments and lab reports due and it doesn't feel like week 5 at all :')

What about yourself, Bri?

Have discovered that Week 5 is when attendance starts dropping off lol. Carpark was significantly more empty today and so was my lecture.

Week 5 is actually a bit more chill for me so I'm happy, but semester is a wee bit stressful and I'm now halfway through my semester and have my major exams starting mid May so the tension is amping up. Overall, I'm travelling ok though :)

Yeah jazz centre's done, opening next month I think. Makes it easier to access all the classes in Krongold and the education centre as that route's no longer blocked off. There's a new chancellery next to the religious centre which is still a work in progress, but hopefully that'll open next year.

Nice one. Will be interested to hear how popular the jazz centre is.

Had a bunch of assignments due over the past few days but I've managed to avoid being overstressed until today (now I'm fine again though).
Looking forward to spending time on Access Monash, mass^3 & the business in the rest of this week :)

week 4 had a bunch of assessments due together but week 5 is a bit more chill although can't relax too much because week 7 which is just before the mid sem break gets hectic again.

Semester: I think I'm starting to learn how much I hate randomly allocated groups for groupwork. Otherwise okayish, it's only week 5 though!
They started randomly allocated groups for me too (had a few last year but not this as common as this year) :/

Honours has been quite steady so far, but its gone all the way to 11 this week since we are gonna have all our assignments due at the end of week 6. Plus we got exams in week 8 to start studying for, a lit review to work on and a seminar to prepare for  :o

I've been TAing as well this semester and I'm really enjoying that. Its a good break from all the honours work, I get paid, and its actually fun helping people learn. I probably should have been tutoring all these years lol

The school basically recommended we do it. All we had to do was apply.
