7am As a first year Curating and Art History undergrad at York, I start my week with lectures on Monday and Tuesday. Wednesdays are my favourite days because I have my curation seminars. More often than not, we’ll be out of the university on an exciting field trip to a gallery or museum. This particular … Continue reading Wednesday as an Art Historian
Daily schedule As the second year of the second term starts, the intensity of winter blues, work and stress start to increase. To battle this, I start off my day by writing down my schedule. This takes the pressure off to remember important tasks or events that I must attend. After this, I make breakfast … Continue reading A day in the life of a Computer Science student
