Nearly half way through

Mapping is taking it's toll, so we're going to the pub tonight, in need of a drink or three. Today the weather was pleasant, making mapping much more enjoyable.
As you can see though, my mapping colleagues are not the photogenic types:

Welcome

Image
Welcome to my first ever blog as an undergraduate student. I dream big, aim high and even though I may be disappointment along the journey, I never give up. I love to learn and never want to stop. I’ve had some set-backs this year, having applied for Aggregate Industries bursary, G-Base work experience, putting myself forward to be elected member of the PCSB Geology Society and numerously applying for part time employment and being unsuccessful in them all, my eyes have been opened as to just how competitive university life really is. So as I begin this blogging adventure, I plan to share with you my current experiences as an undergraduate Geologist within a very competitive world. I plan to take advantage of blogging using the internet and hopefully will be able to define to you my very own personal brand. Having read through Clare Whitmell’s blog post, titled ‘Why a traditional CV isn’t always enough’ on the Guardian’s website, it emphasizes how an online presence is ...

Linkedin Premium on a student budget – is it worth it?

Image
Since joining LinkedIn a few years ago, I have been inundated with regular emails tempting me to join LinkedIn Premium. I read the first email where it looked tempting and then I looked at the price, and ever since, sent it straight to my deleted folder. However, since graduation is looming, it has made me think: will I ever find my perfect job? As a geology student, one thing that I have always found difficult is finding companies that I could potentially pester about an internship or a job. There are many jobs available, but they are so difficult to find since many jobs are filled internally, I can’t imagine many students ever come across them on the internet. I’ve had many rejections in the past, offering my spare hands freely, to shadow and gain what it really is like to be a geologist in industry. I remember phoning a company in my home town, to be told I couldn’t work shadow someone since I had no family members working for the firm. Sometimes it really is who you know a...

Geologists on Noah's Ark

Image
Every year, the geology department dress up for our annual Christmas party organised by the PCSB student society. This year’s theme was Noah’s Ark and was certainly colourful. The work load for fourth year has been beyond anything I thought it could be. So at last, we had a reason to let our hair down and have some fun. After a week or so of prep, ordering our outfits from eBay and Amazon (student style of course), the time arrived and we finally put on all our accessories on, so that we actually looked remotely like flamingos. It was pink overload.   I think we scored 10 for effort. Strangers even asked for a selfie with us! Many cocktails later, we danced the night away and I found myself snuggled up in bed by 2:30am. That’s how you know I am a fourth year; cocktails and early nights are the way forward! Good luck with the deadlines everyone! Reblogged.
