EEVILMURRAY Posted April 19, 2011 Share Posted April 19, 2011 After watching Justin Bieber give some piss poor acting on CSI, it was a joy to see him being given several acting lessons. Given at high velocity and made of lead. That's family entertainment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sheikah Posted April 20, 2011 Share Posted April 20, 2011 So I got funding for PhD position on a cool syntax project. Now I "just" need to get a distinction on my masters to be accepted... You'll be fine - if I can get a distinction, you sure as hell can. :p What's your masters subject? Also come do your PhD at UCL in London. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jayseven Posted April 20, 2011 Share Posted April 20, 2011 Good things: - Earned my highest chest victory yesterday - I'm rated ~1430, this guy was rated 1600. He had me on the ropes for ages but I pulled out a 'clever' few moves and bitch-slapped him. Pleased. With. Self. - Boss has to go in for an operation next week - I've been asked to assume her role as campaign manager while she's away, and earn a temporary payrise too. - Just got called to be told by the recruitment agency that hires me that I should have some pay for the bank hols too! Good day. Except for all that stress and tiredness and lack of money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also come do your PhD at UCL in London. Thanks, we shall see... I'm writing on the internal syntax of wh-elements (e.g. who, what, etc.) from a crosslinguistic perspective.

Fierce_LiNk Posted April 21, 2011 Share Posted April 21, 2011 Ine has been here since the Tuesday last week, and we've been having lots of fun. We went to the beach a few days ago (twice, hehe) and built a village with its own castle and amazing wall (I made the wall. The castle was nice, I guess...). Today, we spent the day in the garden, in the sunshine doing work. I had my guitar with me as well, so started to learn some new stuff, mostly Jose Gonzalez. We had ciderrr, too. Stella Artois Cidre. Buy eet, bitches. Ine got a little bit sunburnt on her arms. I am fine because of my light milk chocolate skin. I laugh in her general direction! We also went to watch Source Code, had a lovely walk around Bournemouth and ate Yummy Tapas at La Tasca. Outside. Mmm. I rate this Fuck Yeah/10.
