Checking in

Still alive. Still working on my dissertation. Oh god, don't expect to see anything much from me in the next month, because I am nowhere near where I need to be on any of my three final assignments. Unexpected sunshine in March is wonderful, but not helpful.

As an apology for my prolonged absence, have a video of Yorkshire. It was premiered at a conference I went to, and it's just gorgeous. I live here you guys! I live in this astonishingly, jaw-droppingly beautiful place.

So many shots. So little rain. How? (I live on the edge of Yorkshire and not in Lancashire so I get to say things like that, right?)

Good luck with the dissertation! End's in sight now.

I think they must have been taken in one day last year, or possibly the year before, because they used the same footage in last year's video. (You get to say things like that if I get to say 'omg how can you live so close and we've never met up and geeked out yet?' and suggest that we do that sometime this summer)

The end is indeed in sight. Too damn close in some respects. Eek!

Real Life looms! It's okay, you know. There are paychecks involved.*

We ought to geek out, if you're anywhere near! I only moved to Co. Durham/Teesside last month, so you're still pretty quick off the mark.

*sometimes, eventually, when a job happens. But it will!

I could cope with the paychecks if it weren't for the work that goes with them :P I'm hoping to get an internship next year, anyway (if they ever post the details, grrr) and then drag Lali to Australia.

We're in York, so pretty close. Definitely do-able anyway :D That would be awesome. I've been trying to arrange a gather for a while, because there's loads of us up this end of the country.

York is doable, definitely (I think it's less than an hour from Darlington?)

I thought you were down south in Sheffield or Huddersfield or something.

It probably is. It seems to be less than an hour from everywhere.

My parents are over in Halifax and I spend quite a lot of time there, but I'm at uni in York and planning on staying here for a while
