You're welcome. Take a look at my new-look user page if you haven't already; not that it's very interesting. Just a few more links and stuff, that's all!

Sorry it's taken me so long to reply - I've been busy with my new girlfriend
I did mean to put in journal entries, honest, but I just seem to have so much to do!

Sorry its taken *me* so long to reply... London at the weekend and the uni internet link to the outside world was down. But a girlfriends a good excuse!
hello
Sabre Posted May 19, 2000
It's an excuse I like to use whenever I can!
Just had an exam this morning. Three hours long.
Why oh why am I a physicist...?

hello

I see that you are now not only an ACE and the Princess of Darkness but also the Blower of Bubbles. I'm sure there's a reason for that.
Just had another exam this morning. Saturday morning exams at 9:00 are NOT FUN.
Oh yes, and I've remembered wwhy I'm a physicist: because I can't do anything else (maths is too hard, chemistry too messy, biology too boring). Lucky me!

http://www.h2g2.com/A330364 pictures taken in hyde park last weekend at the h2g2 meetup, and a link to more in the post article... you will then see the reason that I am blower of bubbles.
Happily none of my exams are on a saturday. I am thankful for small mercies.
Biology can be messy too... dissection=yuck, bleugh.

Physics is fun?
I know, I had the same question about 2 years ago... round about the 2nd year exam crisis (and solid state physics).
It got a lot better when I could pick my options (geophys=mucking about in Hyde Park and atmos) but I still didn't enjoy Semi-Con Dev.
Still, I've done the degree now and am, unusually, still a physicist (have you noticed that the majority of physicists go into things like accounting(!) and not physics?).... gone so far as the D.Phil. thingy. YAAAARRGGGHHHH!!!!
hello
J'au-æmne Posted May 20, 2000
I am *not* going to become an accountant. This I hope I promise myself. So far and no furthur; *not* an accountant.
hello
Sabre Posted May 23, 2000
I'm not sure I know anyone who actually wants to do work when they graduate...
Still I'm on a four-year degree course so I'm pretty well stuck with Physics, which is good because I enjoy it, if that's at all possible.
That's quite interesting... Joanna and I have been chatting for about 9 weeks now (over 2 months!!) and until now no-one else has joined us. Well, the more the merrier I guess!

hello
J'au-æmne Posted May 23, 2000
I don't know if I'll stay with physics, I'll have to see exactly how badly I do in my exams
More than two months.... wow. I think we've done real well.
hello
Sabre Posted May 24, 2000
I'm sure you'll do just fine in your exams. Keep smilin'!
Since you're the only person I talk to on h2g2 (for reasons of time, i.e. I don't have any) I think we *have* done rather well to keep on going for two months!!
hello
J'au-æmne Posted May 24, 2000
time is a good thing. I guess I have too much of it, though well, not really, I guess I don't spend it the way I should.
I won't do fine in my exams, but thats okay 'cause I can resit I am still smiling, I only have to get through this week!
hello
Sabre Posted Jun 4, 2000
hi... sorry it's been so long replying but i've been drunk for a week (or thereabouts!)
Now I've finished my exams I'm just chilling around...that is until the results come out. Gulp
But I still seem to have lots to sort out...I'm a busy, busy guy. Can I recommend my friend Mark's website; he lives down my corridor and has got a webcam which you might enjoy glancing at now and then. Not that the view (some of Mark's head as he sits on his floor at the computer) changes very much. The address is http://www.cs.nott.ac.uk/~mch99c if you're interested.
Keep smilin'!

Andromeda Posted Jun 4, 2000
In return you may be amused by this...http://www.dur.ac.uk/~d91h46/future.html
I've finished my exams too, but most other people haven't yet.... celebrations next week... I'm not looking forward to the results either...
However, I'm going on a canal boat trip soon... that will be fun...
Andromeda on Joanna's behalf...
hello
Sabre Posted Jun 7, 2000
Apparently this sort of thing is known as Progress...
Wow! Another new person! Do you know you're only the second person who has dared to interrupt Joanna and I on our several month-long rambling chat? Ah well, the more the merrier!
Good luck with your exams
