Personal statement part 1: “the location”

Posted by: Robin on: 26 August, 2008

As mentioned in a previous post I need to articulate the reasons for my desire to study Mathematics at Lancaster university. I’ve decided that as I am going to have to write a personal statement for my UCAS application anyway, I am as well to just write a draft of sorts here…
As it’s the easier [...]

I was looking through pictures taken with the slide film I’m going to get for my new camera and came across this masterful portrait. Love it.

The Plan

Hopefully I can have my cake and eat it too… (ho ho ho)
So it’s been little while since I posted, never mind. Not much has happened really, at least not that I can remember. I think that’s because I’ve not been updating my one sentence diary.

5 things to do on holiday

Posted by: Robin on: 1 August, 2008

“We’re all going on a summer holiday”
Tomorrow I’m off on holiday for the first time in about 4 years. We’re going to Caen “en France” so not really far from where I am here (Wiltshire, England) but it will be a world removed in every other way possible. Expanding your horizons is probably one of [...]
