As my time at University comes to an end, I have been reflecting back on the long but short 5 years. I came to University hopeful, excited and a little nervous. Like the majority of students, my biggest fear was that I wouldn’t make friends. That quickly changed of course once I realized all the […]

I’ve come at my Masters in a different way. I spent 20+ years as a business consultant. I helped businesses improve. I trained people on how to interpret data. I ran a callcentre and was responsible for profit and loss. And then I did a Masters in Psychology and it has been a bit of […]

This is my “I’m-happy-my-exam-is-over” face. On Friday I had my advanced stats exam. I’ve always had an interesting relationship with exams. I kind of feel that by the time you sit down and do it, it’s too late. So there is really no point getting nervous. An exam is only testing what you already know, […]

I have an exam tomorrow. Exams are brilliant. All those tasks that you have been putting off, get done. Even scrubbing the cupboards with a toothbrush becomes more appealing than revising.

Well this week has been a little unexpected. I live far enough outside of Dundee that from Tuesday there was no chance of me getting in. Fortunately, from Wednesday there was no chance of anyone else getting in either. This means that there was no stats lecture on Friday, and no quiz (yay) but we will […]

Yay! I got a B for the final assignment I did last semester. So my first ever assignment I got a D and on my one at the end of the semester I got a B. So I learnt and I progressed. That’s all you can ask really isn’t it? And that’s the whole point […]

And so it begins again. It is now the final semester of my Masters *sobs*. Although, unlike everyone else, we will be working through the summer as the dissertation is not due until August. It is the last semester of attending regular lectures though. So where am I up to? I have completed 80 hours […]

Well it might not be my last chance, but as I have no timetable until I matriculate, everything is a bit up in the air. I am a full time mental problem solver. This means I help people and individuals get their head out of the way of them being the best they can be. […]
