I know Ann! You rule!

I'm not sure about the leisure centres either. I enjoy sport but my boyfriend and I have to fork out nearly £8 for 40 minutes on a badminton court. I remember that being out of my reach when I was 15. It may not be much more than a packet of cigarettes, but its still a lot of money.

Hmmm, I don't know what the solution is!

Have jsut found out today that my main supervisor is three months pregnant! Should I get a card or something? What is the done thing in this situation?

Just think, you'll be over and done with sooner! Start planning that party

Trance?! Good luck with that one...
Well, I'm into the House music scene - you can wear anything you like. Jeans are comnpletely fine. Though you might get a bit warm.

Why do you ask if the TOEFL is obligatory? If you want to complete your studies in English, then you kind of need to prove to the institution that you can speak and write it to a high standard!

awww, mine's just gone out to buy champagne and chocs. Bless!

Poor Jen! Just think, what if he was run over by a bus? If you'd be sad - make up! If you'd be glad- break up

My boyfriend and I are a bit anti-valantine. Basically, we don't like not being able to go out for a random quiet drink or meal because everything is so expensive and weirdly couplely! But the we are old miseries!

I have both an optician AND a dental appointment! I know

Well, its experimental psychology, so its not out of the question, but I think the assumption is going a bit far. I have to set up an attentional capture in visual search experiment using photographic stimuli. To be fair, that probably make sense to you unless you are a visual cognition person!

Jeeez, I am very near a panic attack.

She hasn't replied to my email, which I'm taking as a bad sign. But maybe she's just busy.

Help! My supervisor wanted me to programme an experiment for a second year (psychology) lab that's being held on the 22nd. I thought I would have time to sort it all out, but now there's no way that I'm going to be able to get it done. I can't even programme. She's going to be so p*ssed off, and I'm terrified now. ~I've just emailed her to tell her the problems, but I'm worried about what her response will be, particularly as this was a great chance for me to get some data. Why do these people expect you to be able to programme? How are you supposed to learn?!

Hey Matthew - now its all falling into place why you wanted to apply to Birmingham - The Birmingham Lions are the best American Football team in the country. Woohoo!

I love my sport but have been completely unable to get into it down at UCL. There's loads of things schedualed for a wednesday afternoon, which is completely rubbish. Birmingham uni would never have done this, which I'm guessing is why they are number 2 in the BUSA league so consitantly, as opposed to Uni of London, which seems to look down on sport.

It sucks!

Lol, wow guys, are those all for me?! I'm veggie, but ta very muchly!

Argh! I wanted to get the train back to Brum today, but not a cat in hell's chance. Euston is like a refugee camp once more. I wanna go hooooome

@Nimrod, yeah, I used to get confused too, now i just think, 'm' (as in astro-M-y) for moons and 'l' for 'load-of-crap'

Hehe! Thanks everybody! I had a great time, I managed to make the celebrations last from friday evening til this evening - which I thought very clever of me. My boyfriend came to stay, so it was great.

I'm 23, which is slightly distressing, but what's more distressing is that I bought I book on Visual Attention as a little birthday girft to myself, and I wont lie, I'm genuinely excited about it...I'm old AND boring...
