And my sleeping patterns are already messed up. It’s 6am, and I haven’t actually been to bed yet. I had dinner at 3 in the morning while watching A Scanner Darkly, which I borrowed from Duncan. It’s not healthy, I tell you.
Defeated all the gang bosses on Crackdown, and even though a logical part of [...]

Post-exams
So, my last exam was yesterday and I’m now pretty much home free for the next two weeks until everyone gets kicked out of halls. Then I’m home free at… y’know, home.

Exams and Hyde Park Corner
It’s slap-bang in the middle of the first Physics exam season, and it’s going… well, it could be worse. Tomorrow is problem solving, so I’m pretty much stumped for what to revise, although numbers like 7000 kg/m^3 density of metal are floating round my cranium. We shall see.
The last couple of days I’ve been coming back [...]
