Revision

Revision officially sucks. Well, I suppose it’s ok; I just wish I had more time in which to do it. There just isn’t enough time to revise all three courses for tomorrow today. Argh. At least I have 5hrs or so tomorrow, 8am-12:30pm. Then it’s solid exams for the next three hours, and then it […]

Exams: one down, three to go

Well that was nowhere near as bad as I’d expected. In fact, it was almost good (and I finished 30min early)! Turns out that Derren Brown’s memory techniques actually work, if you apply them 😉 Well done to Motti for predicting Oticon coming up. I’m just waiting for others to finish so we can go […]

My email processing rules have become pretty complex and messy, making them difficult […]

My current projects

So, what am I working on at the moment?

Obviously, nobody can say it has always been easy, but it really has been the most wonderful three and a half years of my life. It’s amazing how everything else seems to fade […]

First post

Well, I suppose that everyone has one of these, sooner or later. I guess I finally got round to making one for myself. It’s pretty blog-standard at the moment, but given enough love and attention (which I doubt it will get) it should at least keep me busy for a while.
