Teehee. I would liek to give blood, but I have borderline anaemia, so would probably have a worse problem than you did! Hey well anyway, you didn't embarrass yourself in front of someone you think is quite hot?

Hehe no it was funny! I had a lecture to go to. I just had my blood taken by a really cture doctor. One that I want to take home to meet ,my mommy lol! I didn't know to say I was just a bumbling buffoon. ARGH.

We have loads of microbiologists here working on focused hings like one protein, or one bacterium or something. I don't laugh at them and I don't think anyone else does. Whatever you enjoy lol.

Haha yeah I have to admit that defeat was hilarious! What are ya studying??

Piglet are you not in England?

Of all the things to procrastinae against.......?? Impressive.

What are y'all up to right now? I've finished pratting about pretending to write my abstract for my poster submission for a symposium.

Tomorrow I have to be up at 8am. Lecture at at 10am, and then lab in afternoon.

You?

What should I do in a year out following an MSc?? What do other people do? Where should I look for sciency year-long jobs?

Lo yeah I love greeks. My greek coursemates have been teaching me swear words....ai gamisou, and the worst of the worst....dare I even say?........arhidi. :P :P :P

I wonder whether I can apply for that Wellcome PhD thing, but not do the first year masters?

Where did you find this guy SIxKitten??

Does your uni have any graduate skills courses or someone who you can sit with who can give professional advice on how to structure your writing. I'm in UCL and there is a guy that does it for free.

I remember one thing he said which was that you take a piece of paper and write out each section as questions. And then to answer these you ask more specific questions. e.g.

What has a previous similar study shown? --> Are your results different? --> Did you use a different method? --> Which study concurs with your hypotheseis.


Shitty questions I know bt I'm sure you can think of some better ones.

Hope that helped a little.

Oh yah I also find explaining the study to someone else helps.

See that kind of thing would really bug me-if I was close to a better mark. H what was your Masters in?

Gooood morning peeps. I wish my greek nflatmate would shut the hell up. He turns down music when I'm working but he just talks so damn loud and only has guests over at around midnight. What is up with that?!

But then again he could have just been humouring me, but trust me he' not a guy with that kind of humour.
