I picked up the Student Standard earlier. It's great! Well impressed.

Broni deserves oodles of credit for it - he has worked his ass off over that issue!

Ah it looks great, reads great, really good spread of different articles. Excellent job.
If they decided to charge for it, I'd buy it.

I have no idea what those cartoons are but they made me laugh!
On a side note, I don't like today. Full up on bad news. Not accepting any more.

What's everyone doing with their two weeks off?

Essays. Assignments. Translation.

The only good parts are the lack of alarm clocks and commuting.

Oh! And people. The lack of people is great. I'm totally exhausted having been around people for the last seven weeks. Too many people.

Getting my Thesis finished (sigh

) and a lab report that needs working on which are BOTH due on Friday 5th April .... Double sigh

I hate translation! Theme and version were my nemesis in final year!
I never have alarm clocks. Ah, phd life.
Equally, though, I don't have weeks off. I miss undergrad life!

Have not procrastinated as much as I thought I would during the time off, but should not feel too confident with it being the start. Have gone 2,500 words over the word limit for one of my essays, and I am not even finished it. Going to take longer to cut it down than it took to write it. Damn the essay being so interesting, at least my next essay is boring so I should struggle to make the word limit.

I am looking back fondly at 1st year when these study weeks were actually weeks off, where did the time fly.

Awesome

A whole seven weeks. I hate the second semester. Never enough time. Even if they pushed them out a week so we'd finish at the end of May. Even just that one extra week to study would be great.

My Experimental Physics exam is on my birthday. :pac:

TO_ARTHUR! · 21-03-2013 11:56pm

I remember with the summer exams last year that three days right before mine started, I had a 5000 word essay to hand in, that was 75% of one of my modules. It wasn't easy but somehow through not leaving my gaff for that three day gap and my next exam being a week after, I passed it.

Explain why you wish to pursue a programme of research at NUI Maynooth in the area you have chosen. Include information on any relevant experience and interests that have informed your desire to pursue a research degree.

Answer: Because I'm interested in it.

Provide any additional information you feel will offer a full picture of your capability, motivation and interests.

Answer: See list of exam results on previous page.

So... I think I need about an extra 390 words from somewhere...

I despise application forms and I hate personal statements. Here's the facts, here's my application, why do I need a personal statement? All I have to say is in the following: Because I want to. That's it. There's nothing more I could add which would help to explain the want.

As long as you haven't fallen down a well or something, I'm happy enough.
Hope you're keeping well?
