This is going to be a day where I am actually at university with honestly not really much else on for the rest of the day.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>8am<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>I wake up for the day but will probably make a cup of tea and go back to bed for at least 30 mins to either: endlessly scroll on social media, watch tv or read a book. I don&#8217;t have anything at uni until 11am so I can afford to have a slow morning.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-1972\" src=\"https:\/\/everything-evening.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/img_3670.jpg\" alt=\"img_3670\" width=\"3024\" height=\"3024\" \/><\/p>\n<h3><strong>9am<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>An hour later and I finally drag myself from bed to get ready for the day. Whilst eating breakfast I will catch up on some YouTube video and make up a to-do list for the day. I then check my emails and I&#8217;d love to say work on assessments but realistically I&#8217;ll just finish the reading for my class at 1pm.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-1057\" src=\"https:\/\/everything-evening.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/img_6135.jpg\" alt=\"img_6135\" width=\"3024\" height=\"4032\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>11am<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s time for my group meeting, we usually book a study room in the library and discuss what we have been working on for the last week. Group work is always a questionable experience at uni but as a marketing student, you <b>CAN&#8217;T<\/b>\u00a0escape it. We do group work in tutorials and as part of our course. It&#8217;s common for at least one subject per semester to have group work.<\/p>\n<p>Although it&#8217;s common, group work can still be awful. This group work is for my digital and social media marketing class which I love, we have to do a 15-minute presentation between 3. We&#8217;re also working with an external client which is pretty exciting and something that not many uni&#8217;s can offer.<\/p>\n<p>The meeting was filled with mostly group work, snacks and just some general chat. We have quite a bit of work to do as it&#8217;s only a few weeks until the presentation.<\/p>\n<p><strong>1pm<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Time for my tutorial for digital marketing and social media. This is a 2-hour tutorial, and it&#8217;s split really well. We spend about an hour doing group work based on the previous day&#8217;s lecture. Today&#8217;s tutorial was to create a digital marketing strategy for the launch of either: a hotel, a taxi app, a new smartphone or a fashion brand. We chose to go for the hotel launch and found great hilarity in making up our own brand &#8216;Home N Away&#8217;.\u00a0 We then spend 30 minutes as a class presenting our strategy&#8217;s to each other. After this, we spend the last half hour answering questions about the reading we did.<\/p>\n<p><strong>3pm\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Tutorial is over and it&#8217;s time for me to head to the library, deadlines are fast approaching and I would rather do all my uni work on the days I&#8217;m in uni so I can enjoy my day off. I did some work on my part of the presentation since it is fresh in my mind. I then spent an hour working on the individual assessment which is due in a month or so.<\/p>\n<p><strong>5pm<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I get home from the library and am happy with the work I got done so I am taking the night off. I sit down to catch up with The Circle or watch friends for the millionth time. To be honest, I&#8217;ll probably take a nap on the couch before waking up to cook dinner for the night.<\/p>\n<p><strong>9pm<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Fianc\u00e9 is home from work so it&#8217;s time to eat dinner\u00a0<em>(the only thing I can cook is chicken in a bag in the oven, with microwave rice and veg),\u00a0<\/em>catch up on each other&#8217;s day and pick something to watch for the night. We&#8217;ve decided to start season 2 of Mindhunter. We watch a few episodes of this before heading for bed around midnight.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-1973\" src=\"https:\/\/everything-evening.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/img_2912.jpg\" alt=\"img_2912\" width=\"3024\" height=\"3227\" \/><\/p>\n<p>And that is a typical day in my life as a marketing student at uni. Of course, every day differs, I have a part-time job that I juggle alongside uni, I socialise with friends and I spend a few hours a week planning and working on my blog.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">What is a typical day in your life like?
