I will not admit that this is a GIP

HEE Bigger just called me one of the most academic people she knows. I was initially amused by this, but the way she described it I guess it's truer than I'd thought - plus she knows so many hippies. I did actually do a lot more reading for her course than many of the people on her course, plus I tend to be able to understand a lot of it. She also said that I'm not lazy, that 'laziness' as a terms for myself was just me not coming to terms and facing up to my depression. This is possibly true, since I'm still mentally referring to myself as lazy and yet I'm working very hard, both at my job and at the theories behind the A-level I'm doing. (This post brought to you by my efforts to convince myself that some day I might actually be able to lecture at Uni. That I am not, in fact, ridiculously fooling myself.)

I feel so much better about life since I've left Uni. And yet, weirdly, I'm really looking forward to going back.

(and apiphile is completely my favourite, for this icon.)

You are certainly the most academic non-scientist I know, and I envy you horribly for it.
