Erm... Hi

I haven't been here in a while, and probably won't be here all that often.   However, if you are for whatever reason still interested in chatting or catching up with me you can find me on twitter under Audioworm, or on Sk.y.pe under ladoddsy.   Hope you're all having a pleasant time :)

2 Weeks!

This time in two weeks I will be sat in Mumbai airport, 7 hours through my 12 hour stop over, waiting to board my flight to Dubai.   My time in India is nearly up, and while I have enjoyed my time here, I am most definitely ready to go home

My age now begins with a '2'

This hasn't quite dawned on me yet, as I didn't realise it was my birthday until I checked my phone and saw the date, but it still seems somewhat wrong. I'm no longer a teenager in any capacity (except maybe mentally) so I know have to actually pretend to be a grown up :o   Oh well, I hope everyone has a good day, because I am going to be stuck in the lab all morning, and then in the apartment by myself unless I can find anyone to eat dinner with.

Goa

The trip to Goa this weekend was one of the best trips I have been on while in India. The mixture of relaxation and exploration was pretty much spot on, and it allowed me to chill out enough considering how much I have to get crammed into the next few days.   I've been to Goa before, so getting there was pretty routine. We sat in our seats for an hour or so, chatting, before some elected to go up to the sleeper beds on top, so the rest of us could chill out on the seats. I ended up finishing D

Everything is Pretty Swell

I am still in India (I am here until the 16th of September) and I am enjoying myself now. My luggage is here, internet now works in my flat, my work has started and I have started visiting other places around the country.   We just got back from Hampi which is a town full of old temples and ruins, which was pretty impressive, and we climbed up to the Monkey Temple on top of the tallest hill in Hampi which lead to me getting exceptionally burnt. I have pictures, but I have slow, limited interne

In Dubai

I'm in Dubai right now, stopping over on my way to India :)   I arrived on Friday morning (after having not slept on the Red Eye flight over so hugely jetlagged) and I leave at midnight tonight. The UAE is a mental country which is really nice but also insanely decadent.

India

In less than a week I leave for three months of work in India.   I'm working at the Manipal Institute on their super-conducting nano-film work, I think mostly as a lab monkey doing optical and chemical tests.   It's really quite soon

I enjoyed this....

As someone who never really had a faith. I used to find the idea of a higher being really weird, and always thought religion was stupid. Hearing others was interesting

Eurghh :/

'Science is hard. So I shall ignore it and pick my own answer'   The amount of rage that sentiment fills me with is ridiculous.   I think I may be wired differently but that line of thought just does not sit with me at all. I like to learn, I like to explore, I like to see working explanations. I like being rational.   More worryingly, if kids are allowed to get through the US education system without a basic understanding of evolution then America feels needs to sort itself out.   So mu

I'm Done

My exams for January are now completely done. As am I.   I don't think I have felt so drained in a very long time. I've been living on a really crappy schedule recently which has left me getting very little sleep and at an inconsistent times. Getting up at 5AM this morning didn't help but a morning exam required it.   I now have 10 days to mellow out, recover from sleep and get my body in a state where it may be able to actually attend lectures. I think I am going to go play a lot of video g

Can Relax..... Kind Of

After about 10 days of cramming in as much as work as possible, meeting about 5 deadlines and not sleeping all that much I can finally relax.   But I can't as I am part of the committee holding, running and competing in the national debating competition here in Swansea. I have six lovely people from Aberystwyth crashing in my front room, and I have to be up at around 7AM tomorrow to get a shower before they all do, and then take them somewhere for breakfast and then get them all to the Univers

Two Men Died Yesterday

Laurence Brewer, the remorseless killer of James Byrd Jr. was executed in Texas yesterday     Troy Davis, convicted of killing Mark MacPhail, was executed yesterday in Georgia after being forced to wait for a torturous four hours while the Supreme Court decided if he was to live or die.     One was guilty, one was possibly innocent. Neither deserved to die

Sad Realisation

When you realise the reason people keep you around is as their science 'female dog.' To explain stuff they read that is too science-y.   Going to go sit in a corner with my Bunsen burner and cry

Off Camping

Off to bed for my adventure with Canting. Hopefully picking up Goggie will be trouble free because I hate driving in cities x]

The Riots

I am known for my general anti-establishment views and support of the power of the mass, but there is no defence of the actions this evening.   There is no cause being fought for here, there is no message to spread, there is no idealogical clash here. Just criminality and theft.   I hate people, truly hate them

I Called 140 People Today

And managed to speak to two of them. Neither of them who were willing to donate. I got 125 voicemails and 13 parents. By the time the end of the day came I was prepared to beat my head in against a wall.   And why did it have to be the day where everyone else made over £1000 in donations each. The Universe is conspiring against me

If Michelle Bachmann....

...became President, would that make America a theocracy?   Michelle Bachmann: "And in the midst of that calling, God then called me to run for the United States Congress."   Theocracy: A political unit governed by a deity (or by officials thought to be divinely guided)   I know it is a loose definition but it seems to fit her belief that she was told to run by G-d, which would imply she believes she was divinely guided
