You know how last time I updated I was celebrating? Well I'm celebrating again.

Remember last week I mentioned that I'd had an interview for my dream job/scholarship at my first choice uni? Well. I got it!
So it looks like I'm going to be studying for a PhD in applied ethics while teaching philosophy and medical ethics to undergrads.
So if anyone else is going to be in Leeds from October, do say hello ;D

That said, I promised to have a look around at Manchester Uni before I make any final decision, and Leeds are moving things around to try to give me an answer about another scholarship before the deadline for the teaching award- but one way or another I'll be working on my PhD thesis this time next year...

In other news:

My best frield Sadie (the one who's visiting me from Portsmouth) and I have just had a few days away: Liverpool which was ace (and I'm sorry, but the accent is damn sexy... :p) and Manchester, which was OK (though to be fair, we probably would have enjoyed it more if we weren't knackered). We didn't take many photos in the end (unlike us!), but there are a few under the spoiler.

Oh, and also: I may have a date tomorrow With a cute Chemistry student I got talking to when we went out and got slaughtered on Saturday (I'll be curious to see if he recognises me/is still interested when I turn up sans wig ). Though I'm feeling a bit of a cradle-snatcher: he's 21 o.o Oh dear....

That said: most of this long weekend has principally involved people refusing to believe I'm 24. Can't complain

Hope your April is also turning out to be rather spiffing!
