This is gonna have to be quick, my cat is meowing at me, and I have about fifteen minutes before I have to get ready for work. And my cat is now sitting on my lap - and it's kinda hard to type with a cat sitting on you.
This week is actually looking better. I finally finished all my marking. I added all my stats up, and it worked out I marked 172 reports! *shudders* which took me a grand total of 44 hours! And I wrote my tutorials for next week, so I actually got to do some real experimental work for the first time in a couple of weeks. One set of tutorials to write, then I might, have time to get my research going again.
Our honours girls only have about 5 weeks to go before they hand in their theses, so they're starting to get a bit freaked out. I had to calm one of them down yesterday because she worked herself into a bit of a frenzy thinking all of her research was useless (which it's not). Plus as they're running out of time, all the equipment is getting booked out like crazy. I can't get on one machine for another 2 weeks!
