well, at least I know I don't want to be an ecologist
I hate benthic community structure.
I hate common scoters.
I hate PRIMER software.
I really really hate assignments where the statistical analysis methods are the most important feature of the report, while the reason for actually writing the report is hugely vague. Once again, I feel a bit at a disadvantage b/c the lecturers assume everyone knows about certain resources (Admiralty charts, for one) when in truth most of us who are international students are all going "Huh? What are those and where do I get them? Then what do I do with them?". Thanks to a classmate I have bearings for where we took the grabs (which somehow seemed to be emailed to everyone but me???), but I'm not sure what to do with those, either.
I have until Tuesday to finish this, sure, but I'd like to be able to enjoy my weekend. I just wish it weren't such a vague, nebulous assignment. You can tell this module is very geared toward the Marine Environmental Protection students, and none of us Marine Biology people are enjoying it very much.
*sighs and goes back to writing, hoping it's not shite*
At least there will be new SG-1 and BSG tonight.

Just because you had a b***ing bad week sis.
I hope you get some time off to relax this weekend and not run yourself to the ground. The boy is moving out soon, I assume this will make your life less stressful I'm sure.
I found a cute pattern for a shawl that will make its way to Wales in a few weeks. ; )
hang in there.

Thanks, sis. I have the report and an essay to finish by Friday, and of course there are always new things popping up, but yeah, I should have some free time to relax b/w assignments. Freako Boy got his deposit back today, so I'm sure he'll have to be gone by Tuesday at the very latest. Hopefully earlier :)
