Online learning hopefully won’t be a recurring theme in the future,…Continue Reading Here we are again…

This post follows on from the last – a retrospective look at the rest of Semester 1. Life as a student gives you a lot of freedom, but sometimes it can swallow up your time, like a tea towel into a vacuum cleaner. After the second weekend in a row spent on structural…Continue Reading Sem 1 – Part II
