From student home, it should say something like “google apps email”. That is where my open uni email address came from.
Thanks so much!

I’m a bit stressed out about my TMA, it’s due in on the 21st and I’ve only done about 40% of it. At least I’m not dreaming of math at 5am any more, but…

There was a protest outside the Israeli embassy in London (practically on my doorstep) today. I did not have my camera, but you can just imagine how emotional it was at this tense, horrendous time. The protesters were from all nationalities and ages, armed with their banners and hearts pounding full of...

I want to say I’ve been busy studying, but it’s only partially true. I’ve been studying on and off, but there’s been a lot of off days (especially recently… I’ve just got low energy at the moment). It’s been ohhh-kay. Not sure what more to add to that, it’s a work in progress, I guess. I have some relatives visiting for about a month (plus I’m...

When you see the full extent of people’s pain, will you deny them that because you feel indifferent towards their concerns? Or because you don’t agree with them? Why should we expect everyone to have the same ideals as us? What a sad world.

I was hopeful that I would manage to avoid encountering a module in which the study materials are entirely online. I heard that students were upset as this was now applying to some Science modules and I hoped that I was safe for the moment, at least. However, this is not the case. Actually, I’m not sure if my particular module has always been solely online.
Although I am a keen computer...
I have one iCMA to finish (although both of our iCMA’s have been voided) and then I will begin to prepare for new courses. I’m doing a mix of level 2 and 3.
Today was the first day that I did nothing, except laze around, playing with my nephew. It felt good - although I don’t want to get too comfortable as I need to be more disciplined.
I’ve only been watching the...
William Jefferson Clinton just took us to school.
Yes… and it was worth staying up to see him.

My groups final online tutorial was yesterday. Only about five people turned up, I guess the others were busy working on the EMA. We had a brief run through of topics that we had learned previously, but not studied in depth. Prior to this, I haven’t been to a tutorial for over two months (I missed one and in the last month the tutor was unable to hold a tutorial). As the final block was...

How are you doing now? I hope you are feeling better. How’s your EMA going?
I’m feeling much better. Sleep and tablets seem to work wonders haha. I think I’ll have to have ear surgery soon though.
The EMA is going… it’s not going well. I cannot seem to focus on it. I need to get myself...

Slowly making progress on my EMA, hope to get 25% of it done tonight, as there is an event at a museum that I want to go to, tomorrow (if I manage to stay awake).
Note for anyone using Mathcad: the PTC forums are a great help. Without them, I would have been lost.

BBC Nature - Birds hold 'funerals' for dead →
The results show that “without witnessing the struggle and manner of death”, the researchers write, the jays see the presence of a dead bird as information to be publicly shared, just as they do the presence of a predator.
Spreading the message that a dead bird is in the area helps safeguard other birds, alerting them to danger, and lowering their risk from whatever killed the original bird in...

I wish that people would think before they make cruel, unnecessary comments to hurt someone.
