    Well, if he wants to forget all about it, that's cool. But I really miss it. It was ... so, ummmmm ... well, so Taliesin! Cheers Tal, whatever you want its cool.

    But there are other things too, for example, I could never remember those things you measure with teslas and webers. Don't even know how they are in English.
    Next time I have to use the right hand rule, I think I'm going to start laughing. The gun method is ptretty cool, but the male body is hilarious. I'm going to have to sahre that one with some of the engineers around here.

    Didn't want to do something but did it because people insisted. Is it something to boast about?

    I lost the debate competition, got that damned 'participation' prize I have been getting for quite a lot of time, and I didn't badmouth the judges I really wanted to criticize because I find it difficult to criticize people. I accepted my weakness in front of my friends which I am not even sure that I possess. Now that is something to boast about, isn't it?

    Of course! Congratulations Pensive! Self-restraint is something that comes very difficult for many people. I'm always wishing my co-workers had more of it!

    yep, Pensy, congrats. I know lots of people who'd have thrown a temper-tantrum if they'd been in the same situation

    I had my first formal harp lesson this past weekend. The best part is, it was with Sylvia Woods! Then, I went to her concert and attended her workshop. All kinds of light bulbs went off in my head; I learned more about chords than I ever thought I could know! So, I'm sorry if I'm scarce for a little while, but I'm compelled to practice!

    Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeh, my thesis is almost finished! my boyfriend and me will proofread it tomorrow and I have to add a tiny little conclusion (in addition to my theoretical conclusions). then we have to format the appendices and print it. I hope there won't be any problems.....

    I'm beginning to think that half of what I wrote it B.S. but I'll have to hand it in the way it is. If I go and revise everything, I'll end up going around in circles for 20 more pages.
    keep your fingers crossed!
