On the PhD front, Leeds offered me my dream scholarship, then Manchester offered me an even better one - I went to have a look round Manchester and suddenly picking a uni was impossible... And then Gothenburg offered me a junior lectureship with a PhD at the end of it o.o Gothenburg's offer would have been unbelievable, but the way to find out if living abroad is for me is probably not with a 4-year contract >.< So in the end, I've plumped for...
Manchester!
So in January I'm off to do a PhD in Bioethics and Medical Jurisprudence - and I can't wait!
And on the love-life front - the guy I'd been on a date with in the last post is now my boyfriend
He's beyond amazing: gorgeous, ferociously intelligent, funny, sweet, generous, affectionate, silly, quick-witted, and talented to boot. Beyond happy about this turn of events :3 Here we are on Saturday, when he met my friends 
In short: everything's a bit wonderful right now <3
Hope your May is off to a good start!
