You seem to be working quite hard on getting through that stack of papers!
Self-portrait?
Hahaha!!! She seems to be more interested in revising than I am! I wouldn't say I'm working *that* hard, I should be doing much more, instead I keep procrastinating even though my first exam is on Monday! Fun fun fun!
I always believe that if you havent got an amazing setup, no-one looks or bothers to read this...if you are, then, well thank you i guess.
JORDAN (Michael that it) poster up top...I love him! Various other posters of snowboarding basketball etc. iMac G5 FIRST GENERATION--Decided to be bold and buy one without waiting for a revision--the sound of the fan in this is crap, as i'm sure many will know. G&Ds sticker instead of APPLE logo--famous ice cream bar in oxford...ever in oxford, go to it.
JBL onstage speakers on bottom right with ipod nano covered in g and ds stickers again....rowing cox-box on floor...bed on right....MY PIGGY BANK (very useful but empty right now) and then finally a picture of me falling of a doughnut/ringo at HIGH speed, i mean fast reallllllllllllllllly fast!
Thanks for reading

That first blog I have never seen before, the second I spent some time on. It's a bit late now so I'll try that first idea in the morning--keep you posted.
The best portable iPod player in the world!
Agreed!
Ahhh yes...you know whiteboards? It's just a dry-marker. Comes straight off with the wipe of a cloth or shirt...I was a bit aprhensive to try it at first but now I use it for everything....things to do, quotes...at the moment its a saying my rowing coach is saying to me--next week I've got a national regatta in Nottingham and we are gunning for first place...and I have to remember 'I am ready. I can do this.'
He's been physcing us up for a week now!
Attatched are some before/after photos of writing on the mac.

present day:80g G4 mini, 250g + 160g external drives, dvd burner, Gateway 22" lcd, kensington wireless keyboard & logitech trackball mouse.
Here are a few shots of my setup right now. Its a complete mess because I'm in the middle of revision hell!! I'll post some nice tidy ones when I'm through the finals.
Is that the geostrophic Navier-Stokes equation I spy there?

Good eye!! Yeah its for my Atmospheric Physics and Meteorology final next Thursday.

I love that photo of Clifton Suspension Bridge. I try and get up there as often as possible. In fact, after seeing this, I think I will go for a walk up there tonight with my girlfriend.
Yeah Its might favourite picture, I've got another pic of the bridge with Concorde flying over as well
They are Altec Lansing MX5021 speakers. They are 2.1 speakers available in either black or white. The sub is also white and placed next to my desk, it's quite large you see. Great speakers thus the high price (£110 when I bought them a year ago) for a 2.1 system. THX certified also.
Good eye!! Yeah its for my Atmospheric Physics and Meteorology final next Thursday.

Intro' to General Relativity

Going to be a loooooong week
its feels real nice, doesn't affect typing, but its nice b/c it makes the keys quiter. i bought it from iSkin.
although in my experience, the iSkin does greatly inhibit the clarity of the back lighting on PB and MBP keyboards.
I find myself having to remove it in low-light conditions.
