A break in work
Tonight's post is being written during a break in putting together a rather stressful materials project. Materials is basically chemistry. I never did chemistry. Hence, I do not really have an idea what I am talking about, but I am trying my hardest, and it doesnt seem to going to badly so far. I was also amused earlier when someone in my group said that a material would not be suitable for use in the human body because it melted at 170 Celsius. I dont think this person realises that the human body is only about 37.5 Celsius. I know that and I never did chemistry or biology. So once I get this finished, which it nearly is, I just have to learn how to pass my maths test tomorrow, and then I can sleep. Which should be nice.
Not much really happened today, apart from doing our materials project, and going for coffee with some first years. Except I, as expected by those who know me, actually had hot chocolate, since I still only drink coffee when I am incredibly tired and have work to do. Even then I still prefer a good old Irn-bru.
Also, in response to a question about knights, cavaliers and horses, we finish it by just keeping going until one of the last two pairs is out because they are obviously the slowest. We were much faster when we won on saturday =)
Now, back to work for me. I don't have any good quotes for you today, so here's a bad one instead: "Try something new every day, and you'll never be bored." Sorry it's not as good as yesterdays quote, and technically I dont think it's true either, I'm sure I could still find time to be bored even with a new thing added to my schedule every day.
Blog soon.

depends very much on how interesting the new thing you try each day is..
you're right. its not as good a quote as yesterday. but still, you cant get it right all the time... that *would* be boring! ;)
Cheers for the help with the links thing. Figured i needed to do something with the template but got a little scared by the enormity of it.... but it was actually relatively simple.
Hope the maths test goes well. Sure it will all be fine.
Boo! Long time no speak! (well not really!) i love how you say that you were much faster at knights cavaliers and horses, as if it was something really difficult to do! you were playing against little kids, are you not ashamed that they will never get the chance to win Knights, cavaliers and horses?! Hmm, we call it knights, cavaliers and horsemen, not horses!
I like your quotes, they're very good! how about "Don't give up now, break in the clouds" (see if you know where it's from?!?!
