New York was cool! A very busy city! Lots to do.

Hopefully these all work - I've picked some of my favourite landscape pics here, so I hope you enjoy them! What are you doing with that transfer request?!

(Oh, and rugby's cool!)

Yessss!!! Thats exactly where I would like to live!

I love walking in extra busy streets (like the photo with your boyfriend). It makes me happy I know this sounds weird for many people but I really get very "high" when I am in busy places! I think I have the opposite of agoraphobia. I think I will definitely chose New York over Toronto now!!!!

And your photography is not bad at all!!

lol! He's not my "boyfriend", I'm a bloke XD Do I come off otherwise?
And I didn't take any of those photos 8( I wish I did cos some of those are really nice. I didn't have a digital camera, so all mine were printed.

But I'm the same! I loved walking around in those busy streets, but there are some quieter places you can go eg Central Park for a bit of a break 8) We went in the winter (november) - sometimes it was jumper and scarf weather, sometimes we were out in t-shirts, but the air was always crisp and clear! I hear it's not very nice there in the summer, though 8(

Sorry, I just didnt have a clue whether you are male or female and when I read "my friend" I immediately interpreted it unconsiously into "boyfriend".

Yes, they are really nice pics!

Its not nice at summer? Why is that? I am going in July! Ahh I have to wait more than 4 months!

lol don't worry, "i00t2000" is pretty non-gender specific 8)

I think the only problem in the summer is that it gets very hot and stuffy. If you're not stuck in an office all day you'll probably still enjoy yourself - especially if you're going around and visiting some of the islands and what not 8) It'll still be great, don't worry!

Yeh, it's a while to wait, but that gives you plenty of time to work out where to go and what to see

Yes, and concentrate less on my project

I hate results sections! I think I will hire a statistician for this part of my thesis. And a programmer to set up the experiments and maybe an undergrad to run the experiments! Tha would be great! Although I think I would end up with a PhD in management instead

How is England doing btw?

Terrible 8( They're getting thrashed by Ireland.

It is a sad day for rugby ~sigh~

heh results sections aren't so bad... Well, except for doing all the stats 8( lol. But putting stuff in tables and drawing nice graphs is quite fun ^_^

Oh, I am sorry about your team

If you have some photos of South Africa, please feel free to share with us

Grr... it isnt going well tonight... still stuck on the analysis.

So, whats next on your list for tonight?

It's ok 8) My football team lose quite often, too, so I'm used to it by now lol

I do have photos of S Africa, but they're not on my comp 8( my sister might have some, so I'll ask her if she does.

Sorry to hear you're stuck on your work 8( Time for a break to refresh your mind? Don't ask what I'm doing, it'll depress you even more! I have no plans, so I'm just going to relax. Big first day in the office on monday, so I just want to take it easy at the moment. Are you going to do another all-nighter?

Yes, today I am going to stay up all night. I wanna take it out of the way, I just had enough!

Thanks for asking for the photos! You are a very nice break to me

aww lol! I've enjoyed chatting to you about stuff the past couple of days!

I hope you manage to get everything done tonight then! I feel like going and getting a coffee myself, the thought of you having loads of work to do is making ME feel tired, I feel so sorry for you! You getting any further with the results?

Ahh, thanks. I wish my supervisor had the same feelings as you about what I am going through at the moment!

All out of a sudden I have to do a "signal detection analysis" which I had never heard of before, so I got myself a huge book from the library (what a treat!) which will give me a HINT (according to my supervisor) of what I have to do! My data are also in a very complex form and I have to make a million changes in Excel before I can use them in the analysis!

Yes, go and get a coffee... relax...show me some photos and preferably stay up all night to keep me company I am soooo bored!

lol!! Your super doesn't sound very nice 8( And I've had to deal with complicated data before, too. Sometimes complicated data that I had no idea how to understand! Oh yes, the joys of interdisciplinary courses at Uni -_- Mixing oceanography with marine biology is BAD. Good luck with that Signal Detection Analysis! It sounds weird :s

I'm only seeing my sis tomorrow, so I'll see what I can do about the photos then.

Thats ok! For me tomorrow means today. I will be in the same desk reading the same draft over and over...

I just noticed. You are English and you drink coffee! Amazing! I started a kind of "healthy living", eating cheese puffs(?) (first time after I was in the kindergarden) and drinking innocent smoothies (mmmm I love them! Both )

Do you live alone, with friends, family, sister, flatmates?
