Reseña del libro "Life, University And Everything In Between: the modern man's guide to uni life and not cocking it all up (en Inglés)"
Ask any member of the uni academic staff and they'll tell you that going to uni is all about working really hard and throwing yourself into your studies with more vigour and enthusiasm than a Viking raiding party on big hat day. That said, there is another side altogether. Life, University And Everything In Between is specifically written for students about to take the plunge into uni life who are both a little anxious and also curious as to what lies beyond the regular generic advice concerning budgeting skills and how to keep your room tidy. What Life, University And Everything In Between offers is an in depth, humorous, real life, warts 'n all guide to many of the things you will encounter in your first year at uni, including fresher's week, accommodation, finances, alcohol, drugs, sex, studying, health, etc. plus some common sense advice and life-hacks from a seasoned pro who has graduated successfully with two honours degrees from different universities. This is not one of the generic survival manuals to uni life. Believe it or not, whilst going to uni can be a bit anxiety provoking, you are not actually being air dropped behind enemy lines. If you need to know how to effectively budget for the week on exactly 5.53 or bake a cake from freeze dried pasta and last week's dogs dinner, well there are books for all that. However, in the interests of a little bit of reality orientation for a moment, a guide that's composed in the context of real life university experiences, joys, laughs and tears might bring with it some valuable insight and a human perspective to the adventure you are undertaking. It can be a bit daunting, and quietly admitting it to yourself does not make you a lily livered, paranoid, apron string holding kindergartener. Life, University And Everything In Between is in many ways designed to promote confidence in your own ability to walk into the next few years with your head up and eyes open.
