Back then, I had no idea of all the amazing and incredibly fun things I would be able to do on a weekly basis. Which is why, for this blog, I am going to be writing about \u2018A week in the life of an English Literature Student\u2019. This is a typical week for me, but with a few extra things which don\u2019t always happen, but were worthy of a mention. I hope this snap-shot of my life at York will help demystify some of the things about University, as well as get you excited to go!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Monday<\/strong><br \/>\nIt\u2019s the start of the week, and I begin to realise more and more that I am not a morning person\u2026 However, I struggle through and go to my Tutor\u2019s office hour, which is when I can go and discuss my essay ideas outside of seminars and workshops. Office hours always help me to get focused and motivated to do an essay, and the tutors are always up for a good chat about your work, their research or just anything really! After that I go and record a feature for University Radio York (URY), this one is based on Superheroes and the film industry. Mondays are a pretty radio intensive day as I also have committee meetings in the afternoon, where we just have a bit of a catch-up. After the meeting, I went to the cinema with a group of friends to see a film I would be reviewing later in the week on my radio show, Screen (URY\u2019s film review show). I then go and collapse on my bed and get ready for the next day.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_3799\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-3799\" style=\"width: 660px\" class=\"wp-caption

this to myself?).\u00a0 Today, I have a Student Ambassador Shift, where I do campus tours and meet lots of potential applicants.\u00a0 It\u2019s one of the many paid jobs on campus, and it is actually really fun!\u00a0 In the afternoon, I have a few lectures, including one on Modern American Literature, which will prepare me for my seminar later in the week.\u00a0 After my lectures, I go home, make food and just have a chill evening with my housemates.\u00a0 We usually watch a film or play games, but we try and do something relaxing.\u00a0 I will also probably have lot\u2019s of reading to do, so I will try and do something productive.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Wednesday<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>On Wednesdays I have my Old Norse seminar.\u00a0 As I am in York, a city rich with Viking history, I was so excited by the opportunity to study Viking literature, as well as learn the language.\u00a0 In the afternoon, I have a debating training session and committee meeting.\u00a0 After which, most of us go to a campus bar and have a catch-up for a while.\u00a0 Occasionally, I will go to the York Comedy Society shows, which take place every week and are incredibly funny.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Thursday<\/strong><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_3800\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-3800\" style=\"width: 279px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><a

(very early) workshop on Critical Questions which is all about applying literary theory and analysing key questions in literature.\u00a0 I then have a two-hour break in which I usually go to the library and try and do some work.\u00a0 I then have another seminar, which is based on the American Literature lecture I had early in the week.\u00a0 In these seminars, we discuss our ideas about set texts and this is where I usually generate my essay topics.\u00a0 I then have my radio show Screen at 6pm, which is usually the highlight of my week!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Friday<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The last Uni day has arrived, and I am probably very excited for the weekend.\u00a0 This term, I have Friday\u2019s off, which is great because I can make a start on all of my work and assignments, such as writing this blog!\u00a0 There\u2019s usually one-off things that happen today, whether that be a party, a radio thing or just going to meet up with friends.\u00a0 I short, I tend to give myself a lot to do on a Friday to properly tire myself out for the weekend.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Saturday<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s the weekend!\u00a0 And I take full advantage of my day off to have a sleep in.\u00a0 I then get started on some work before going on another radio show, Stage (a theatre review show).\u00a0 Based on the recommendations from that, I might go and see some of the plays being performed in York or in the University in the evening.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_3801\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-3801\" style=\"width: 660px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a
