I was looking forward to working on my paper in mid-semester reading week as I wouldn’t have many meetings. However, my computer refused to work this morning.

I had to come to the library to work. It is not very convenient to work without my computer and two monitors. On the other hand, it is good to work at the library as this environment makes me feel like I am a student.

I have realised that my computer must be very stressed and so was I due to the excessive work last week. This might be a kind reminder that I should slow down and look after myself and my computer.

My work place is very beautiful with a lot of trees, small cute animals, loch, etc. However, I spend most of my time in my office which is a bit sad sometimes.

However, I very much enjoy communicating with my students and delivering lectures and seminars although it is still a bit challenge for me to speak my second language. Luckily, I have students who understand my challenge and are engaged in my sessions and meetings.

I play badminton with my colleagues every Tuesday (we try hard to make it every week) which is good fun! I played with two colleagues last Tuesday which made me feel fresh after all the hard work. 🙂

Now I am really looking forward to seeing my Sports Work Experience module students tomorrow. Hope they enjoy my session! (No pressure 😉 )
