Uni, book fair and carillon tour

In the morning I had another applied neuroscience tutorial, where we had to answer some questions in a small group, and at first no one said anything... But luckily, they were actually willing to work together properly right afterward, well, semi-seriously. After the tutorial, I went outside to Manning's to grab a bite to eat somewhere in the shade. The weather was lovely (around 24°C). My family and friends were flying out now, so I thought I'd text them and see how things were going, but they had their Wi-Fi turned off??? There's Wi-Fi on that plane; they have the same one I had. After that, I went to the chemistry lab to print the poster for tomorrow and had a nice chat with someone from the lab. While I was cutting and pasting the poster (it had to be A1 size! It was so big!), someone spontaneously came to help me, sweet! I returned the poster to the Service Room for storage until tomorrow and went to the book fair in the Great Hall (a Harry Potter-esque venue). Initially, I planned to just pop in and have a look around, but that went a bit wrong, haha. Upon arrival, I was handed a cardboard box with the explanation, "5 dollars for a full box, fill it as much as possible, everything must go." Well, I saw a book somewhere that looked interesting, and yes, that's how it went, so now I have enough books for the entire semester... The book fair was in conjunction with Lifeline, which is a great cause! I made a really bad egg sandwich at home, haha, but it was delicious. I worked a bit on pharmaceuticals and then went back to the Quadrangle building for a carillon tour organized by SUMS. I thought it was pretty cool to see how it works; it's basically just like an organ, but with metal wires connected to large bells. There was even someone who could actually play it; it sounded great! After the tour, it was time for another SUMS rehearsal. That evening, I got home and realized the figures were still flying, haha. How strange, such a long flight. Still worked on pharma and the poster presentation of chemical biology.
