After my stress over recent assignments, finally they are
submitted! Its always a bit stressful for everyone on the course when we have 4
different assignments in over the space of 2 weeks but we did it! Some of the
weight lifted before starting the next ones.
Also one step further on our event, plans with the venue are
looking positive. Hopefully we will have the venue confirmed and booked by next
week…yay! Other Uni related goings on are my dissertation, due to the other
assignments I feel I have neglected it slightly over the last couple of weeks
but getting back on track with it from now, which involves me writing the first
draft of my questionnaire. I have found that my Psychology and Sociology
A-levels have come in so useful for my dissertation, as well as a couple of
other assignments on the course. I never thought they would, but they really
have giving me a good background knowledge on topics like motivation and
understanding of research methods. Thank you A-levels!
Its been a while but I managed to get to a gig this week. I
went to see Band of Horses at the Hammersmith Apollo. I have unintentionally
become a bit of a fan girl as I've seen them quite a few times now, but they
are defiantly worth it and if you get the opportunity I would recommend. The
support act was a British band called Gold Heart Assembly, quite a similar
sound to Band of Horses so I was equally impressed with them. The only let down
was it was on a Tuesday night, so energy levels were lagging by the evening. It
was the last night of their UK tour so the energy was up and the crowd singing
away. The band even threw in a special surprise for the start of the encore, if
your not familiar with the Hammersmith Apollo there is two levels, the top
level has seating with a balcony overlooking the ground floor and stage. Two of
the band appeared on the second tier and played acoustic versions of a couple
of their songs. It was an amazing atmosphere and interesting way to use the
venue, playing their music acoustically overlooking the majority of the
audience, something I've not seen before. J
