Yeah... It's been a while since I've updated... ¬_¬U

First of all, I’d like to thank you all for helping me break the 10,000 views threshold That’s awesome! =P

I promise to post something official to celebrate when I have some free time...

Moving right along;

Well, a lot has happened recently. I’ve moved out of London and I now live in Reading.
I’m in the middle of my first year in Cybernetics and Artificial Intelligence Engineering Degree at the University Of Reading. It’s really fascinating but very time consuming… :work:

Sadly I’ve been neglecting Deviantart (and pretty much everything else, including my health) in order to concentrate on my work… :juggle: Ironically the first year doesn’t count toward the degree but I want to be promoted on the full Masters course, so I need to work hard in order to prove myself to the senior researchers. This means that I rarely go out (no change there) because I don’t normally leave the labs / library until midnight (that's also often the case for weekends) and I’m constantly too tired to do anything else… :faint:
On the other hand I’ve made some good friends there :teamwork: and the campus has a very stimulating atmosphere… Perfect for a lab rat like me… ^^;

As far as the work goes, so far so good. I seem to be on track with the requirements but I must admit the stress level is very high as most of the students have way more experience in mathematics / computing compared to me and I often feel like I’m running behind in order to catch up. (Then again, that’s nothing new either...) I guess, I never realised how much mathematics was involved in Cybernetics and Robotics; you’ve got to see it to believe it! In the space of three months, I’ve gone from mathematically retarded to engineering math super geek… :o (Engineering degree, what did I expect?! lol :p ). My first set of exams start in may… Since I’ve been revising from day 1, I should be fine. ;)

Apart from my working university life, I've nothing else to say, apart from that I miss my old friends from college, attending my Friday evening lectures at University College London and going to the Hampstead Heath observatory while hanging out with the people I know there…

Man... I really need to get my ass down there pronto… I have to admit I’ve done a really bad job at keeping in contact with my old friends, but I’ve just been so busy! Those of you who have met me in real life will know how much of workaholic I am…

:paranoid:

Meh, that’s just the way I am, can’t be helped. ^^;

Well, that’s the jist of it… Not much to report apart from that…

I’ll try my best to be more active, but I don’t want to make any empty promises… =(

I hope your all okay on your side. :)

Keep safe guys and girls. ;)

Till next time… :salute:
