First-year student

Lorenzo  Marsili

08:00 I wake up around eight. I have time to sit in the sun, have breakfast, do my readings. I don’t like doing my morning activities in a rush.
11:00 We have a lecture on Ethics. Before the lecture starts, I have a little chat with my friends while we’re waiting for the professor. Today we have a lecture about consequentialism.
14:00 It’s time for Comparative Philosophy. We had to read a few texts and there is a student presentation about one of the topics.
16:00 I go to the library and do some readings before dinner.
19:00 I have dinner with my roommates and afterwards I grab a few drinks with the guys. We usually go to student bar the ‘Pelibar’. There is a pool- and ping pong table and we can play Mario-kart there.
00:00 I go home, tomorrow I have a lecture again.
