T-minus two days and counting...

So. the chemistry is finished. The maths is still present, which would explain to no small degree the fact that I am writing this; it's that or have another go at integration questions that had me stumped the last time. And probably still will. The packing is mainly finished, thank heavens, and the bike is ready to roll, in all its technicolour glory (or something). I've returned all books to the library - including, now I come to think about it, a textbook I was using for reference with the maths. That may not have been too bright.
Music zone had a sale on and, being a sucker for cheap albums, I aquired the Offspring's greatest hits album, and Showbiz, by Muse, which I am listening to now, and is absolutely fantastic. people have told me before now that they reckoned it's Muse's best album and I have to say I agree, even though other albums have individual songs which are superlative (Plug in Baby and Feeling Good on Origin of Symmetry, for instance). At the rate this is going this whole thing will turn into a music blog, which was never the idea, so I'd better find summat else to write about. Though I can't actually remember what the idea was, to be honest.
So, term starts in two days, which is good. What is - not bad, because if it were I wouldn't be going - but perhaps less immediately attractive, is the fact that lectures (and hence work) start one week from now. In fact, this time next week I will have had my first three lectures. I look forward to the course and learning and so on, but I'm still working up the motivation to do large amounts of work. But I've got a week to do that in I suppose.
Now I've started listening to the Offspring's album. Naturally, it's very good. Rock on etc.
Oh, and Gerald de Jongg, creatir of Fluidiom, which i've mentioned before, has released a video the better part of an hour long talking about and demonstrating it. I find it interesting, though I guess most won't, but anyway it can be found here or here.
And that's it for now.
