Beards.

It's no good, I can't remember how to do my PhD.

It was all going so terribly well last term, and now it's gone to shit. I just can't quite recall what it was precisely that I do on a day to day basis. Ah well. I'm sure it'll come back to me.

Had my head scanned today. Actually, that is a complete lie. Bernie has some new photographic equipment that allows him to take 3D shots of people's heads. 3 of us from the lab wandered over to have a look and be scanned. Slightly dissapointed by the lack of a booth to stand it. We all had images of having to stay really still in some sort of pod while something went round our head really slowly. But no. Just two blocks of cameras and an office chair. More than made up for by the resulting photographs, anyway. It is very weird seeing your own head rotating on a computer screen. Well, almost all of it. There's no back to it, so when you turn it all the way round, you get the inside of your face, like an empty mask.

Crazy.

Anyway. Currently sitting on my mate's bed while he looks around for post-degree jobs/ postgrad things. All very exciting. Remembering recently the sudden rush of graduating fear I went through. All my friends were getting jobs/ moving to London/ applying for this and that. I didn't even have a CV... and I already lived in London. Strange times.

Louise and Lewis are moving in together. This leaves Jessie and Kate as a twosome. I wonder what'll hapen there.

I am a very tired man at the moment. But I did get my hair cut today. Which feels much better. No more greasy badger on my head.

One of the professors has asked for sponsorship to shave his beard off.

Nice.

Hey, you have a great blog here! I'm definitely going to bookmark you!
I have a art website bird illustration

That promotes my very good friend Mark Connors artwork that pretty much covers bird illustration
articles and other related themes.
Mark's work is the produce of his passion for art, when looking at every piece the attention to detail is nothing short of spectacular and many a person will notice different details upon each viewing, they are truly a joy to observe. There are many talented artists around the world but few achieve the effect in their work as Mark does, when looking at his work that there is more than just a painting or a illustration there is a element of fantasy behind each piece that brings the inner child out of you and draws you in.
Come and check it out if you get time :-)
