The campus is not difficult to negotiate.
Parallel corridors engulfed with beautiful dark wood just seem to make sense. The buildings begin with a P (for Pembroke) or A (for Anson) then the floor numbers correspond with room numbers. Easy!
This week while there were no lab practical sessions, we found we were off for the day on Tuesday. Dr Lauren Pecorino provided me with my time filling activity as I began to read her book "Why millions survive cancer." An excellent book. Quietly showing me just how much I have to learn about cells. I aspire to write so confidently as her.
Fellow students in their minority are finding it easy to complain about our insecurities. We all are trying hard to gather our way into finding answers to things. Self development plan number 1 - be more tolerant or space yourself further from the negativity. I must not engage with difficult conversations. My plan at University is to enjoy my time, to learn everything I can to facilitate my brilliance as a nutritionist and to keep smiling all the way through, becoming just lovely!
Chemistry was a difficult subject for me last year. Worried that this year may prove the same, I focused hard on the lecture. A new tutor nervously took the lecture. Last year, i found I was mostly repeating memorised sentances regarding atomic bonding. Just enough to pass. Yet this lecture saw the proverbial 'penny drop' as I realised that a covelant bond was in fact a sharing of electrons. Aha, a sharing of electrons. Now I see clearly!
Writing myself notes, I reference into Youtube to go and look up Pauli exclusion principle and Hands rules. These are currently another language to me.
