    I'm almost exactly halfway in my studies, 2.5 years behind, 2.5 to go (supposing I'll keep in schedule).

    Let's make a deal - we'll both get through the rest of our studies and get that degree And everyone else around here too!

    Well, you have completed 25% so that is a big chunk...

    And in my last assignment, my introduction only was 800 words so you are all right!

    What will you be studying Juniper?

    I will be done in June this year; even though I am dreading all the assignments that are waiting for me, I am glad I have decided to complete it in 2 years instead of 3

    After that, I might go for another course which will take me at least 2 more years but not sure yet.

    Well, I decided to abandon literature studies after a year and a half and get into forestry science. I'm starting all over again in September. Once I'm done with my four years of bachelor's studies (well, four years more-or-less) I have my ranger school to attend. I don't mind so much though, I like school.

    Good luck, Juniper!

    That sounds so interesting; will you become one of those guys who wear red, then?

    Haha, no, those are our mounted police. They're sort of like our FBI except that they work on the provincial and municipal levels too.

    I'll be one of these:

    Except younger and more girl-shaped.

    Niamh - I don't know if it will be of any help to you but the Beeb did a programme about the ancient kingdom of Benin only a couple of weeks ago in their series lost Kingdoms of Africa: if you didn't see it, maybe you could catch up with it on iPlayer. There was quite a bit about the Benin bronzes, how they were made, what they signified etc (and the presenter was quite a dish......stop it, kasie, behave!)

    Oh, shame! Red would suit you well but green ain't such a bad colour either!

    Good luck with it all! Come and find us here in September. I am sure a bunch of us will still be around.

    Kasie> I remember you saying you are going to Egypt in February. When are you off?
