School started again today. That was weird.
It is almost May, and I'm still not used to the United Kingdom higher education system. There are so many days that I wish I was already taking finals and ready for summer to start next week. Yet, here I am sitting in an EAT near campus figuring out my to-do list for the week.
Summer term consists of numerous review classes, group project presentations, end-of-term papers, and of course, exams. It is consistent with how the end of the semesters were at Syracuse, but having an entire term devoted to it is different. I have a paper due this Thursday on the mass media's agenda-setting role in presidential elections and how social media could disaggregate that stronghold. Next week, I have a group presentation on the decriminalization of drugs and the profits of pharmaceutical companies. And, for fun, the week after I have a management paper due.
Exams take place in June, as I mentioned. I have three in a row with a week before the last one. I'll be done by the second week of June which leaves time for a hopeful weekend getaway before my current internship wraps up as well.
For now, though, the rain is starting to fall, and I'm in desperate need of a cup of coffee. Adios friends!
