I'm Hal, an Information Systems postgrad in Edinburgh, and this is the place where (sporadically, at best) I dump stories from my travels and the results of projects I've worked on. It's not much, but it's mine.

On the home stretch to a degree...
Wednesday, February 15, 2006
Good news everybody!
I know it's been ages since I've updated anything here, but I thought I'd post on the off chance someone might see this at some point...
I'm going back to Camp Cal this summer!
I really can't wait. The 2004 season was brilliant, and I can't wait to get my degree out of the way so I can just get back out to Croatia. Check out my gallery for photos from my last time out there, and www.campcalifornia.com for the camp's official site.
As for the degree, things are coming along nicely enough. I'm in the essay week of hell at the moment, having handed in essays yesterday and the day before that, with only my dissertation left due the day after tomorrow.
I'm also working on a project at the moment, which I've been working three days a week on since the beginning of term - I start full time work on it from next week. It feels great to actually be doing real research, discovering previously unknown stuff that could ultimately help cure muscular dystrophy. It beats sitting in a lecture theatre, incidentally something I'll never have to do again as of last week...
The real world seems to be approaching ever more rapidly.
