I guess I'm an Oldie

Well, I’m back. Now in my 4th year, and still doing too much that probably isn’t Chemistry :-S Ah well.

I got my campus accommodation (Redfern) with my group of mates from my course, which is a good laugh. Shame I’m not there enough.

I’m one of the conductors of Wind Orchestra for the next year, which is bloody scary. Just did 20mins in the Free Concert on Tuesday in front of a Butterworth Hall audience. ARGH!! I’m also their Concert Manager, so have to remember all of my exec duties too.

So I started way back in 2004, and am STILL an undergrad. It’s slightly worrying when I can go out with mates who live in the local area, and realise that I’m the only undergrad there. (Thank god Laura was at Juicy’s 25th!)

Now I’ve just got to hope my 20-week research project with Guy Clarkson goes well. I’ve already managed to make some stupid errors. I’m going to blame a summer without labs and a lack of engaging my brain. Though it all sounds interesting (Getting a ring-like molecule to stay on an axle) and am quite looking forward to it.

So, I’m still here. I wonder if I want to leave in June 2008.

The Feeling's gig at Loughborough Uni

Writing about web page http://www.thefeeling.co.uk/

The Feeling are playing at Loughborough Uni on sunday night, and my mates band, Clocks, are supporting them! How cool is that?

Well done lads! Hope it all goes well.

It’s a shame I’m busy all day Sunday. It would have been good to go and see it. Ah well.

I Have A New Watch!

Follow-up to I Need A New Watch – Opinions? from Life, the University, and Everything!

My parents paid me a last minute visit today, and because of H.Samuel’s BOGOHP offer, my Dad and I both got new watches.

I got the Accurist Men’s Chronograph Watch with Navy Dial

Yes, the photo is a bit weird, but on the H.Samuel page for the watch there is a link to “Enlarge this image”, which points to a flash-type thing that allows you to zoom in on the watch.

Yey for unbroken watch faces!

I Need A New Watch – Opinions?

My watch got ever so slightly broken over the summer. Now I have loose shards of glass inside the watch face, which keep jamming the second hand. And now the H.Smauel website says it’s having a half price watch sale!

What do people think of the following watches.
