jojo, you are serious about this arent you

Looking forward to my 'life training'.

I like to say PhDs are like babies, they don't came with a manual with a trouble shooting section

Smilodon,

you are just the person I need to talk to. private converstaion though.
I will be looking forward to that sadza meal and (a beer for you)a soft drink.

'27 dresses' showing now. a must see for all you romantics

I was just watching my hero, serena williams come from a set down to win the semis of the miami open in tough three sets. She is thru to the final on sat were she is garanteed at least some hard core cash.

Then there is me, looking forward to starting a four yr PhD, during which time I will earn £1200.
Will my life be comfortable after 4yrs of study?

Thanks guys.

I am just wondering what you mean by, you are designing experiments. How do you do this. do you modify protocols that already exist and if so how do you know how to modify them. does the supervisor give you guidance or indeeed intial training in the lab in regards to the basic exp in your area or is it guess work all the way from day one.

that is very helpul , thank you very much. are there any other pple with diff experiences

Thanks,

so you didnt do any lab work at all

Hie all,

I am starting my PhD in oct, and as you can imagine I am a bit excited.
I am wondering what my first year will entail and thought I am ask the more exprience students to shed light on the course of events in their first year.
So please tell me what did you do in your first year. was it day one in the lab or what?

I am in the same dilemma. I actually want to have kids i the middle of my PhD. I start in oct,and my PhD is for 4yrs. I was wondering if I can have a baby in yr 2, and if so will I be payed maternity leave or will I be penalised for this

ohh, i thought u were in leeds for some reason, thats were i am

hey masters where are you in the uk

well I didnt

uhmm, well it just goes to show that we all need more than our priced possessions, our barins.

anyway what with that other macho guy with the hair. the one in the board room, not the team leader. I really dont like him

SORRY FABI HAVE NO CLUE. i HOPE YOU FIND YOUR WAY THOUGH
