To-Do List

Listening to: 'Like a G6' by Far East Movement [Free Wired]

  1. Finish experiments before my collaborators go all juvenile (again) and say I can't use their lab any more
  2. Write up so that my supervisor has enough time to read my thesis properly before I submit
  3. Get a viva date before the degree committee meeting
  4. Get a visa appointment before my student visa expires
  5. Pass my viva (hahahahahahaha - I don't know why I find this so funny)
  6. Get the confirmation letter before my visa appointment
  7. Apply for my new visa before I get deported
And you wonder why I'm stressed.

Stressbuster!

Listening to: 'The Heart Never Lies' by McFly [McFly: Greatest Hits]

I've been so stressed lately. Like a sumo wrestler is sitting on my shoulders. I've been trying to find quick fix stress relievers, but I haven't had much luck...until this evening. I was walking back from the lab (I left my bike at home today 'cos it was so windy) and listening to some music, when the following song came on. I pretty much sang along out loud and skipped all the way home. And now I'm feeling all energised. Not necessarily motivated, but I'll take what I can get :D

Anyway, here it is:


"There's nothing on Earth that can save us, when I fell in love with Uranus" :D

And since seeing them on the Chris Moyles Show Access All Areas Tour (which I'll blog about in more detail soon) yesterday, I am properly in love with McFly. Specifically Harry.

L-R: Tom, Dougie, Danny, Harry
Ladies (and gents), if you'd like to see more *ahem* revealing pics from their Attitude shoot, click here (they're totally NSFW, in case it wasn't obvious from the above pic). You're welcome.

Happy tears

Listening to: Nothing

I dare you to watch this and not be smiling at the end (or crying, if you're as much of a stressed bunny as I am right now).
