SIlence is golden... but I've just been lazy.

I wrote a really long journal entry yesterday, but my PC crashed just as I was about to finsh it, so I spat the dummy out and went to do something else.

The upshot of it is this: My exams are finished and I find out the results in about a week. I need a 2:1 to...

how'd you burn your finger?
sarahjane:
I did something similar to that while making a birthday cake. I had put the cake pan on the cooling rack and set the oven mits aside, then I realized it was about to come tumbling off the edge of the counter so I pushed it back with my bare hands. Ouch that sucked, but boiling pasta sounds more painful!

When my brother was crawling (he was about 2) we used to burn our garden and it was in the stage where it was like a dutch oven and he lost his ball in it so he crawled in, both hands and one foot, third degree burns! Us kids thought it was funny so we called him stubby until they unwrapped his hands.

Short update.

I'm halfway through my exams. Three down, three to go. The first went okay (despite a really unfair indepth question about the iPod), the second went fantastically and the third I'm slightly worried about, as I know I missed some stuff I really shouldn't have.

As soon as my exams finish, I need to find a way of putting a stop to the...

see, that's strange, cos i always thought that safeway was a canadian thing, but then i saw one when i was in the usa once, and now you say that they're also in the uk.....WHERE DOES IT END?!?!?! and no, we don't have tescos.

there was a question on your exam about an ipod? kwazee. what are you wanting to get your PhD in? im assuming that you're in grad school currently? i'm hoping to start grad school in a couple of years. kiss
sarahjane:
If only it were that easy! Im waiting for another set right now. Hopefully it will get accepted!

Fortunately Days May Turn Slightly Cold. (so) Learning Programming Seems Fun. Realistically Others Rarely Teach Retards.

In the same way that Richard of York Gave Battle in Vain. This will help me in my exam. Oh yes.

Dah. Revision makes my brain hurt. Only 19 days 'til the end of my exams though. Today I finished my first read through of my notes for my first three subjects and studied all the past papers in detail. My plan is to base my revision strategy on the fact that they tend to use the same general themes from year to year, if not...

Yay, back in Edinburgh. I was supposed to be going out tonight, but my friend called to cancel just as I was leaving. And thus my plans, and designs on a certain young lady, were foiled yet again. Curses!

I watched a couple of episodes of the Poirot TV show today... they really do like to change the details of the plot... which in some...

no worries dear. it doesn't always come out easily in writing, unless you had previously know about pops and i.
sarahjane:


i have a decent relationship with my mom, i might tell her someday that i got naked for money. my parents were neglectful and they shouldnt have been able to reproduce. my sister basically raised me and she's my best friend, she knows about that stuff... we have an open relationship.

I'm installing Firefox for my parents (along with fixing all the technical problems throughout the house they have apparently been saving since the last time I was home (Christmas)), so they won't be needing IE anymore... thus I am free to use it to access SG.

I don't really have much else to say. I hate revision, but that isn't really a strech of the...

Is Firefox good? A friend recommended it to me a couple of weeks ago but I havent got round to trying it yet.
tarragon:
A reason? Yes there is. smile

I'm so listless this evening; I don't know what's wrong with me. I did get a few things done today, though.

First of all, we went to look at a new flat. It's a private let which would get us away from the horrible, horrible Flat Company (anyone reading this in Edinburgh who rents will probably know who I'm talking about). The flat itself was...

When the revolution comes, the person the who came up with the idea of "playing it cool" will be first against the wall. I think I may have mentioned my distaste for this concept before. First of all I can't do it, second of all I can't cope with girls who do. I mean... come on... play fair.

On the whole this has been a...

I have this uncanny knack of remaining sober when the rest of the room is falling over drunk, although Anaphalaxis reckons this is cos I take an hour to drink one whisky. Personally I think he's just jealous. biggrin
tarragon:
Poirot's stories are certainly much easier to solve when you see them on screen. The books are always much more mystifying but that is probably what makes Agatha Christie so good.

As you may have noticed, I finally got around to adding an actual picture of myself today. After half an hour of running around my room with my camera phone (it turns out that it's really hard to take a pic of yourself with my actual camera. The button is in a funny place) I finally took a pic that I quite like. It has...

Thanks for the birthday wishes.

How are you and Poirot getting on?

kittyp's latest journal entry has got me in a slightly political mood, so I think I'll talk about it a little. Specifically, I'd like to talk a little about the choices we have here in the UK. I dunno why, that's just what I have on my mind.

In the red corner we have Labour. Straight off the bat, this is probably who I'll...

It's Russell Road, round the corner from Roseburn.
Great free internet spot.

The Lib Dems (they were called the Whigs for slang) use to be the oppossing party to the Torries at one point before the Labour party existed, they were in power a fair few time. They were in at the begining of the 1900's cos i remeber doing emensly dry boring stuff on them in history a couple of years back.

Theres one cure for the BNP and thats bullets, and lots of them! wink

Its fun to be a dirty communist.
