I woke up with a blinding headache, my first since before Christmas… stressed by the thought of what’s to come…? Who’s to say!

The PhD room is being repainted at the most awkward of moments, just as I want to settle in for two weeks hard graft viva preppin’. Thankfully the pesky undergrads aren’t back yet so I’ve commandeered one of the studios for a while.

Today was just spent familiarising myself with the process to come, collating questions to prepare for, printing the thesis and other bits and bobs. Tomorrow, I get stuck in!
