Sometimes, studying can be overwhelming for me. I write down the things I want to achieve today and achieve this week and realised there was quite a bit to do since it’s week 12.
These are 12 things I tell myself when I feel a little demotivated and a little overwhelmed. These are my own things and they may not apply to you. I am sharing this in hope you can find some of it hopeful.
‘Career Goat’
Hi All,
I hope that your studies are going well and you are enjoying life at Uni.
As a student it is never too early to start to think about your career and life beyond university.
If you haven’t given much thought to your career then now might be a good time to start.
Restless nights, followed by tiring mornings and always feeling like you can never catch enough sleep?
Like how we have habits to keep our teeth clean and our studies done, we have habits that affect our sleep.
Sleep hygiene describes good sleep habits. Here are some advice to help you get a good night’s sleep from a student. Most of these are common sense but the hustle and bustle of the modern and uni life makes most of us neglect some of our common senses and self-care.
Got friends who are interested in studying science at Monash?
Take them on a 360 degree VR tour of the amazing environment that is the Monash Science Precinct, from wherever they are.
The Science Precinct consists of 5 different areas; Maths, Chemistry, Biological & Environmental Sciences and our dedicated STEM library, the Hargrave Andrew Library.
The Young Science Leadership Awards are now open for 2017. These awards are intended to recognise student achievement across a broad range of areas and celebrate their achievements.
Any science student may nominate by completing the form here. Nominations will close 5pm on the 12th of May, 2017.
Are you a budding astronomer? Or you’re curious and awed about the majesty of twinkling stars out in the wider multiverse?

Ah it’s week 5 of semester: assignments, quizzes, mid-semester tests looming on the horizon. On one hand, we can strap down and get cracking. On the other hand, we can totally spend a few hours browsing our favourite sciencey, nerdy, geeky web-comics to lighten our spirits.
Yeah, I like that second option.
We’re excited to announce a new project: SSLL Volunteers!
We’re looking for ‘loungies’ to help us look after the space after hours. If you love the SSLL and want to make it a better space, apply now at: http://bit.ly/2nb7uTw

Love your science friends & love us?
