That's amazing, LPS, but are you sure you are getting any uni work done?! :rotfl:

Went to the dentist today and they have a charity box with proceeds to mouth cancer and I found The Snowman by Jo Nesbo. Have been looking for this one for ages. They asked for 50p, but I paid £2 cos I was so pleased to find it !

See, I can't even go to the dentist without buying a book ! :rotfl:

:rotfl: This is only our 3rd week back after the Christmas holidays, so we don't have too much....yet. Lots of course work due in weeks 10-12 though.

I find if i spend a whole day doing reading/work/research etc for uni i'm okay for the rest of the week. I do try to get coursework or assignments done, or at least started as soon as we get them. I hate rushing at the last minute!

I am quite a fast reader, and the journey to uni takes about an hour each way, plenty of time for my books on the bus!! I also like to read in the bath, and for about an hour before i go to sleep every night...which i am off to do now!
