      In terms of work, a good day is when my job goes smoothly and I feel that I have made progress in my work. Outside of work, a good day is being with family or friends, doing something enjoyable but productive and relaxing in the evening as the sun sets over the horizon.

      If it were at work a good day would be when things work! Science research can be very frustrating and things often go wrong or don’t do what you expect them to do. An even better a day would be when my science research is published in a journal (this is how I get to tell others about my discoveries)

      If at home a good day would be on or by or under the sea, spending time with my family laughing, having fun

    For me a good day all starts if I get up on time and no delays getting into work! Then if I manage to answer all my emails and complete my to-do list for the day, I think it’s been a successful day at work! At the weekend a good day will be one where I don’t have to do much and get to spend time with my friends and loved ones – if I manage to get a lie in then it’s even better 🙂
