    Hey how is everyone today? I'm having a pretty good day, my lab finished 45 minutes early and my new phone case came. The only thing im not happy about is we were supposed to be getting some assignment results back at midnight last night, but now they've changed the time until 4pm today

    Good luck @Dandelion only half an hour to go. What’s on your new phone case?

They won't see how strong you had to be because you had no other choice. What they will see though is how compassionate you are because you experienced pain. What they will see is how kind you are because you experienced how cruel the world is. What they will see is how good you are because you've seen how bad things or people can be.

    Oh my gosh, our dissertation data has finally been released to us and there is so much of it!! it's going to take so long to go through and organise it all, plus they haven't run a blood measurement I wanted which is a bit annoying but I guess I'll just have to work around it.

    @Dancer - I am sorry to hear you had a panic attack at school. It must have been really tough for you, but I am proud of you for leaving the room until you felt better! Your wellbeing always comes first, and I am really glad to hear one of your teachers helped you. How are you feeling now? :3

    @Dandelion - Hey! I am good thank you. How are you? How amazing that good things are happening for you. I am proud of you for getting a score you are happy with. Good luck with the dissertation data. It doesn’t sound like it is what you had initially hoped for, but deep breaths and you will do it :3

    @Zay - Oh no! That is a lot of homework indeed. How are you getting along with your homework now? I hope it is going well. I also hope you also had some time for yourself :3

    @Shaunie - Hey! I am good thank you. How are you? Your jigsaw looks great! I hope you enjoy doing your jigsaw. Please feel free to send us a photo of the finished jigsaw. I think it will look fab :3

    Yeah I can imagine you definitely deserved a long lie in then! I had planned to but then I fell asleep really early last night instead lol.

    I tried a pasty earlier. It was really nice but very spicy.

    @Shaunie - Yay! You are welcome. How is your jigsaw coming along now? I hope you enjoyed spending some more time on your jigsaw :3

    @Dandelion - Good morning! Though I appreciate I am unfortunately responding the next morning. Yesterday I was in the research methods bubble. McDonald's and books sound like a fabulous combination. Which books did you opt for? :3

    @Anch0r33 - Hey! How are you feeling today? I hope you had the extra rest you needed yesterday and are feeling better today. If you are feeling better today, do you have any plans for today?

    @Apollo - Hey! It is great to hear from you. How did you find the fishing game and seeing your friend(s)? I hope you enjoyed both of those. They do sound great :3

    @Zay - Hey! Oh no, madness indeed. It must be really difficult for you, but I am so proud of you for recognising it is the situation that is difficult. If I can do anything to help, just give me a shout! But I am sure you know more about your homework than I do :3

    @Dancer - Hey! How are you today? Have you tried a cheese and onion pasty? Those are my favourites! :3

    A duck walks into a bar and says to the bartender, "I'd like to buy some peanuts." The bartender says, "Sorry, don't sell peanuts." The duck leaves.

    The next day, the duck returns and again says, "I want to buy some peanuts." The bartender replies, a bit gruffly this time, "I already told you I don't sell peanuts." The duck leaves.

    The next day, the duck comes in once again and yet again demands, "I want to buy some peanuts!" The outraged bartender yells back, "I told you, I don't sell peanuts! If you ask one more time, I'll nail you to the wall!" The duck leaves.

    The next day, the duck walks into the bar and before the bartender can say a word, the duck asks, "Do you have any nails?" The bartender looks taken aback and says quietly, "Sorry, don't have nails." The duck asks, "Well then, do you have any peanuts?"

    Ha, I love it! Thanks for sharing it with us @Dancer. It reminded me of the duck song. I have copied it in the bottom of this post. I hope you enjoy listening to it :3

    hey @Laura_tigger82 how are you? how is your research methods coming along? The books I got were normal people by Sally Rooney, Daisy Jones and the six and the night she disappeared. They were all recommended to me so hopefully I'll like them I started reading normal people last night and im enjoying it so far.

    Hey @Dandelion!

    I am okay thank you. Though feeling quite in the depths of research methods textbooks at the moment. I do have my draft title, question, and methodology though so that's an amazing step in the right direction. I need to start focusing on the literature review soon.

    I am really glad to hear you are enjoying reading normal people. Hopefully, you'll also enjoy all the other books if they have been recommended to you too. Please feel free to let us know how you get on with reading them! :3

    It’s going okay thanks @Laura_tigger82 think I’ve pretty much finished my last assignment, I don’t think that I’m going to do too well on it, it was really hard. Now I have two weeks to revise for my exams and then it’s time to focus on my diss 😰 I feel like I have a lot to do, just want my exams to be over with tbh 😂
