What made you pick a tiny species of wasp and not the whole lot
End of Term
Laura Posted Dec 16, 2004
Well, there are several hundred speicies of parisitoid wasp. Most people have no idea they exist though, seeing as the things are about 1mm in size.

FUJIMAR Posted Dec 16, 2004
I know they exist because I've seen them on Discovery Channel but I didn't know there were that many. Surely you could get a job in a musem (don't think thats spelt correctly) or something.

Oh, I could probably find a job, the problem is there aren't much in the way of relevent graduate jobs. At least, not unless I want to work for any of the nuclear companies, and I don't.

I haven't graduated yet 
. Officially so far all I have are my A-levels, which were a big mix of subjects. I'll find something, it's fairly easy to pick up a vaguely relevant job, just not a graduate one. However, PSG's doing the same thing as I am, continually applying for graduate jobs. As long as one of us gets one the other can find a job of some sort in the same location, at least to start with. Hopefully.

The right word in that is yet. Can't you start applying for jobs already. I don't know if it works like that when you've been to uni

Yes I can, I don't need to have a degree to apply for a graduate job, just need one to start it. I really need an upper second, and I'm doing I'm best to get it.

A 2.1. An upper second class degree Worse than a first but better than a lower second or a third.

Would 65% make more sense?
Yes . PSG's coming down for my birthday 
, which is only a few days off thinking about it. We're hoping to meet up for new year, otherwise we'll have to wait until the winter meet on the 8th.

Yes, it's all looking very good, going to have lots of and 
. I'll be online yes, my bedroom in Hemel's been turned into a multi-purpose room with a lawnmower of a computer in it 
. Basically it's a clear space that everyone else uses when they can't be bothered to clear their own
Goodnight Bel

Took five hours to get home, first there was a problem with the track and then a power failure. Then I find my dad's in hospital for an operation on his hand and it's only the twins home who hadn't been left anything to eat. I think I need another cup of
