She's found the cure, her futures already begun...

We are getting ready to move out today, lots of cleaning and organising.

I went into town to buy some extortionately priced oven cleaner and got U-571 to watch tonight. Saving Private Ryan is in stock nowhere! A very distressing thing indeed.

Yesterday I went to York to talk about my summer job. I shall be starting on the 15th for 10 weeks with 2 holidays. ^_^

Its all coming together rather nicely.

Karen finishes her second week of SAS this week and she seems to be enjoying it a lot. It makes me so happy for her to be doing something that she loves. I still feel sad about her leaving Sheffield in a couple of weeks and am mentally preparing myself for her going to Borneo.

I can't wait for next summer, there's just that pesky level 3 in the way first!

I'll let you tear it up...

I love not having exams. Its such a relief to relax and do whatever we want.

I am rather excited about Alton Towers. Hope the weather is good.

Its the last Apprentice tonight which may be rather entertaining.

I'm looking forward to my field course in Portugal hopefully I won't get sunburnt and turn into a lobster then Karen wouldn't be too impressed.

Things are going really well. I am so happy. This summer is going to be very hectic but will be a nice break. ^_^

Is it safe to dance? It's safe to dance...

A fun and productive day at Karen's ensued. Lots of giggling interspersed with a bit of reading. I am not tired after eating eggy bread which was AWESOME, but still didn't beat my cheese, bacon and chicken toasty that was consumed at lunch.

I am going to get another couple of chapters of reading done tonight and then play on Zelda I think.



Today's PhD comic made me smile and look forward to a summer (and a lifetime!) of laboratory based hilarity.

This story made me laugh as well. I want to name an ice berg!!!

I would also like to do this sometime too pleasethankyou!

This was the real deal - a massive tornado was tearing up power lines evidenced by blue flashes on the ground. As lightning cracked all around, we got fleeting glimpses of its giant conical shape lit up.

Stormchasing in Tornado Alley

Every little thing she does is magic...

Second exam. Palaeobiolgy. Much better. Feel OK about it.

Next up evolution on Tuesday.

I really really want my camera lens to get here so I can at least get a bit of practice before Portugal.

Pie and STP at Karen's tonight! Yay. I'm so lucky. ^_^

Also things are looking good for my summer job. Have finally heard a bit more info and should be talking to the head lawn geezer soon!

What makes the one to shake you down...

A good day indeed, Church was fab I ate loads of biscuits and we played some fun games.

Revision is going pretty OK and I had a fun afternoon with Karen.

We talked more about next summer and upgrading our photo gear and moving on with stuff. I'm really happy.

The pens lost game 1 which isn't so hot but hopefully they will bounce back tomorrow and even the series up 1-1.

Hold me and tell me we'll burn like stars...

It is a dull and boring Friday today. Woke up late and did a lot of behaviour reading. Am getting closer to finishing Zelda, I want to catch the final fish type next.

Going to watch the new Indiana Jones film tonight with Kazz, which is rather super exciting. JB said it was excellent yesterday so I am looking forward to it.

Karen is going to do work experience back at home for a couple of weeks in the summer which is very good news as she should definitely have enough days to apply for Hallam come September. Huzzah!

I should hopefully find out more about my job in the summer next week and probably get my lens!

The monkey on your back is the latest trend...

I am so full of food! Karen's parents came and took us shopping and fed us which was nice. I spent too much shopping and still need to pay for my lens. They've also taken my Portugal cheque out (cry) so money is going down a bit too rapidly.

Rather excited about the prospect of going to Africa, can't stop thinking about it. ^_^

Shall be working in some science based position over the summer although not too sure what at the moment.



I'll probably end up being "everyone else". ;)

Walls will fall before we do...

I found out I have a paying job for the summer! 6 weeks in labs, playing with MALDI-TOF mass specs, w00t.

Hopefully this won't occur.

Kazz should be getting info on work experience and SAS super soon which I am even more thrilled about. We had an awesome chat last night, despite me being rather tired. Stuff is moving and its great. I love it.

^_^

Love like winter...

Beautiful day, weather is stunning. So nice to be warm for a change.

Crookes Valley Park, Bank Holiday Monday.

Now to work on my project.

Ambition...

15:18: Project is finally finished!

This little guy is finally cute again. ^_^
