By Sunday I'd caught Fresher's Anthrax - a little like Fresher's Flu but, as Kit reports, just that little bit more lethal. Hell: it was enough to make me bed-bound for a good few hours during the day, and that takes something. I blame lack of vitamins... I haven't yet replaced my "litre of orange juice a day" I typically have at the office while I'm working full-time since returning to full-time education.
I've sat in on a few of Claire and Paul's lectures this first week. It's amazing - as you study, you don't realise how much you've learned until you really look back. I've also particularly enjoyed hearing Mark Ratcliffe, a lecturer in the department who primarily deals exclusively with the first year, teach again - his style is quite unusual and remarkable: eccentric, involving, comprehensive. Very impressive: I'd forgotten how good he was.
My friend Faye has launched her new personal web site, which kind-of confused me because I was under the impression that she was moving to a URL she asked to host with me. No matter, but I wonder why she changed her mind. In any case, go visit or don't as you please.
Note to self: I need to find a supervisor for my proposed final year project - part of my dissertation - by Friday.
