Words

As I've progressed through my scientific education, I've come across words that I have found quite interesting/ amusing.

I'd thought I'd share, I might add more to this as time goes by....

If you want me to elaborate on anything, let me know...

no title

I feel I have neglected this place some what....

Right. At the moment I am on my summer holiday, meaning I'm at work.....

I have had my exam results. I am NOT happy with what I got, but in the end it is my own fault.
I have to resit one of them, the 'Bioanalytical instrumentation and techniques' one, bloody calculations. I can not do them!

At the moment I am all on my Larry...

just a bit more

I just wanted to say that the whole bit about boobs in the last post was related to tumours, that particular hospital has a breast cancer section.


I now have a cactuar!




He is amazing!


So, I am now done with the lecture side of uni, meaning exam time is nigh!
And I have 6 exams in the space of 4 weeks, and I'm having problems with 2 of the modules >.>
I'll talk about them more after I've done them.

Angel or not, I'll stab you in the face....

I'm so glad I got to the end of season four of Supernatural, now I can turn my attention to something else while I wait for season five to finish before I start watching it, the same goes for House, finished season five and I'll wait for season six to finish before I watch it.

There is a reason for being so odd about how I'm going to watch those shows, and the reason is, I have work to do. My exams are SO close. But I refuse to talk about them yet....

I've just finished my Easter holiday, so that means I've just finished my second year Easter placement at work. Woo histology! I do quite enjoy this department. For two of the days I went to one of the smaller hospitals, and this one specialized in breasts. So, I got to see bewbs. Disembodyed bewbs, but bewbs non the less.

Seeing as I'm now bored of this, I'll leave it here, and at some point talk pointlessly a bit more later.

see ya.

P.S.
I GOT MY CACTUAR!
And I broke my flat mate's blender >.<
But I'll talk about that later....

You know what? I'm not sorry...

Been a while, so I'll up date on what has happened over the last month of so.

Well, I had my birthday, was ill that weekend, so didn't do much, just went for pub lunch with my flat mate (Ellie).

It was the Christmas holiday, so I worked.
It was quite good this time, I was in the histology lab :)
I did block scraping, which does get boring after a while, and embedding, putting tissue samples into wax, was fun (Y), and I did various other computer related stuff (booking out). They also sent me off with the skin basket quite often. The skin team (skin related histology consultants) are in a different building, so I had to go out into the cold :(

Christmas itself. Hmm.
Got some good stuff, mainly a real top hat (second hand I think, and god, who ever it was had a tiny head), a really pretty calender ( the artwork is by Sioux, just some examples of her work)
and yummy Skullcandy headphones ( I got red checker skullcrushers).

I managed to go home for new years, and went to a party at my mates. Don't remember much of that night, apart from being quite violently ill at the end of it.

Well, I think that covers it. Oh, I have such an exciting life, don't I? aha.

Oh, and I really want a cactuar, like srsly...

No, really, I do, he is just amazing...

I want various other ones as well...

Tonberry for one...
