HONY

So I've been semi-obsesssed with this blog lately, and the wonderful stranger who's in charge of it.

Study study study... Knowledge

just re-read this post and bored myself, so beware. hope the video at the end will at least cheer one of you up :) 

I'm a science student so inevitable I love science and I feel that this subject is the way forward in many ways; the way to truly improve the human condition.
However I started to realise thats quite a narrow-minded view.
I think that an understanding, albeit basic, of the social sciences is necessary especially since changes in the economy and politics are affecting us on a daily basis.
This also led me onto realising where my hostility towards watching the news came from; I dont really understand alot of the market figures and the cuts that are being made in the budgets of different sectors, or why they are being made (here in the UK).
So I've decided that, God willing, this summer I will inform myself. I shall try and acquire a basic knowledge of economics and politics. my attempt could be futile but at least i made an effort..!
Oh, and I say in the summer because I have exams coming up...
