Claiming my territory

Life as a PhD in a department where there's nowhere near enough
desks for people is tough work. Especially when you're planning
to go away for about 3 weeks and leave your desk unguarded for
that long. So I've decided to put on a notice to tell people
that I'm just going to be away for a bit and I'm not giving up my
desk. Hopefully that means I stil have a desk when I come back.

It's the last day I'm going to be in uni before I'm back from
Europe. Really though, it still hasn't really sink in. Especially
when we've planned this for so long, and now it just creeps up on
us. Not to mention that the tickets stuck at the moment and I can't
seem to be able to take it out of my drawers. I'm sure I can solve
that problem before I'm off though... I hope.

Been kinda socialised these days. Since everyone said "We should
meet up before you're off!". So Pete and I are basically meeting
with different groups of friends every nights of the week. Don't
get me wrong: it's great! And I always like to catch up with people
and talk. I'm just a wee bit tired lately that's all. Good thing is
I'm taking tomorrow and Friday off uni, just to do any last minute
shopping before we're off, as well as pack. :P And I probably
should wash my car before I'm off too. *sigh*

You know I really should stress more about the conference... :P
