stuff...

Felt like clearing my head a little... Life seems to be progressing more these days... finally decided on the phd sup...sent in the application too and have begun on lit review...Thats been quite fast considering I had no clue some weeks back. Proffs on a conference though so haven't met up with him or anything often...wonder if he expects some sort of summary of what i've done so far when he get back :|.
Wish everything else was running as smoothly as this. But I guess other peoples lives are out of my hands-but why oh why does it seem to be out of their hands too.
Decided not to go home finally. Waited and waited for my dad to give me word ... and then when he finally did it was rather late ... though I guess I could have still gone but I'd only just talked to the new sup and couldn't immediately up and leave. PlusI guess I subconsciously have a second reason which my perceptive friend pounced on. I do want to go home a lot considering I havent been back for a long time now - want to see the new place...catch up on the few friends left there before they leave too. But I do sort of dread having to meet extended family members and such. Last time was akward enough and I'm two years older now oh dear!! Well shall be going sometime in the near future hopefully.
No christmas or new year plans as yet...but considering all my closest friends will also be here we will come up with something. Must go and see the big christmas tree again - am i the only one who gets excited about it? Couple of movies lined up to see...esp narnia - must read it before i go!! couple of others which i may get coerced into going on the account of my friends' tastes. Saw the new HP already - was pretty let down cause I was expecting something much better as it was my favourite book. I will go and see the next one still though - one can hope. Going to see P&P today - heard from various sources that its quite nice but my friend and I having seen the TV are pretty convinced it cant be as good - (that we watched 3 times in 2 weeks despite it being 5 hours long!!) - and no way can this Mr.Darcy be good as Collin Firth - that guy was born to be Mr. Darcy! but still going with an open mind ;)
Lab has been pretty quiet these days considering quite a few of the proffs are on leave so the students come in later and stuff - wish I had such luck - I guess with the perks I there must be some downsides too. People are also trying to clear left over leave that they cant carry forward and such. Managed to configure comp to the settings and stuff that I like so now working on it has become a joy and not a frustration.
hmm thoughts are not coming out any more - guess my head is more cleared now

I stopped watching the HP movies after I saw the first one. It was such a let down. I prefer reading the books and imagining everything in my own (twisted) way.

The fourth book is my favourite too and I was wondering if I should watch the movie. But then you say it isn't great, so now I am re-considering it... hmmm.
