A list of weblogs by Warwick University students, for no particular reason.

Finished my degree at Warwick with a 2.1. The fear is gone. Relief. Joy. Breathe.

Group hugJun 16, 2003

It's crisis season as university ends and the Rest of Our Lives looms. Everyone's questioning who they are and what comes next. Things aren't as bad as they seem, though. Sending a big communal hug to all. Also: knowing people who know things is almost as good as knowing things yourself.

Spent five hours lounging on the lawn with friends, junk food, and cherry coke. Now sunburned to a crisp and heading out for indie music. Worth it.

Back at Warwick and completely overwhelmed with work. Send help.

Back at Warwick for Freshers' week. Campus living is great, being network tech support less so. Sleep deprivation is real. Also, there should be a law against straight guys being misleading on the dancefloor. Oh, and Turkey seized weapons-grade uranium smugglers. Sleep well, everyone.

Warwick's got more campus webcams, covering Cholo and the cooler. Creepy, big-brotherish misuse of technology at its finest. I love it.

Only slept 45 minutes but finished my HCI assignment: designing a movie-editing suite. Screenshots are up. The design theory justification was junk, but the design itself is great, obviously. Also mainlining "Crying at the Discotheque." Another deadline Friday. Send help.

My lecturer Alexandre Tiskin is evil. Be warned.

Exams are killing me and my bank balance is dire, but I just found out my university awarded me a scholarship 9 months ago and forgot to tell me. Silver lining. Still jobless, but my last exam is the 12th and then the daily job hunt calls begin.

Complaining about cold buildings and bad internet access, but at least no Monday lectures. Here's a Gilbert and Sullivan parody link to make it worthwhile.

Sick and back at uni. Posts will be sparse for a few days.
