Study Tip: Find the right hours. Don't study when you're really tired. It's better to get a good night's sleep after studying for a short time, than to push on at two in the morning. You won't remember much and you're likely to see a performance drop the next day. #study #studytip
There are two desks in the study, by the window -- this one has a lot of ephemera on it, including a day calendar for 1953.

I have spent many nights exactly like this when I was in school. I feel for this student - working this late in the night when all the classes are over for the day. It must feel very peaceful though, and I remember being the most focused and getting the most work done in the ghostly silence of an empty building.
With an "interesting" drop-off behind me, I am studying the layout of the terrain with Google Earth views printed in advance. The sun was too bright to allow my looking at the camera.
However, the sun was not too bright for Joe Tripod to stand motionless while supporting my camera.

It was designed by Patrick Hodgkinson[2] in the mid-1960s, based on studies by Leslie Martin.[3] It was initially planned as a private development at a time when private, mixed-use development in the UK was rare. Building started in 1967 and was completed in 1972, though the building fell some way short of its intended size. The original plan extended up to Euston Road but the Ministry of Defence would not release the site of a building they leased for use by the Territorial Army (and that still stands next to the Centre today)[citation needed].
After failing to attract sufficient private buyers on time, the residential section was leased to the London Borough of Camden for use as council housing, while the developer retained ownership of the structure and shopping areas. The exterior of the building was never painted because the Borough could not afford to complete work on the building after they took control. In Hodgkinson's design, the blocks would have been painted cream, a shade typical of the Georgian period, as a homage to the terraced houses that previously stood on the site and those that still surround it.
Despite being widely disliked by those who are unsympathetic to modernist architecture, it achieved Grade II status in 2000. By this time, however, many of its shop premises were unoccupied. Plans for renovation had repeatedly been blocked by residents' committees but in November 2002, the £22 million project began. This included the painting of the blocks in their originally-planned colour and the commissioning of artist Susanna Heron to introduce water features to the central space.[4][2] The major work was completed in late 2006 with the opening of branches of several high street chain stores and restaurants. The dual management has caused problems though, as the landlord restored the structure of the estate but the council is responsible for maintenance of the residential properties - so while the concrete structure was restored, the windows remained untouched, detracting from the overall aesthetic of the development. In 2007, the council started work on replacing the windows that has resulted in the residents having scaffolding outside their flats for the second time in just a few years.
Now referring to itself as The Brunswick, the centre contains 560 flats, various shops, cafés and restaurants, a Waitrose supermarket, and the Renoir Cinema (one of London's Curzon Cinemas group).
[10/365] Scribble, scribble, scribble. Sometimes my notes are full of colours (more accurately, they use only the four colours found on Bic's 4-in-1) but today it's all in black. Nothing like the stress of exams to encourage the idea of learning.
