Thanks everyone

NP - Sorry I forgot to mention, my degree is in Psychology. I studied it at A-Level prior to taking my degree, which is what I based my choice on. Learnt some interesting stuff, although a lot of it was also hogwash lol. I have no idea what career I'm gonna pursue ) Guess I'll just look on the net and see if there's anything that takes my fancy. I am sure glad to be out of education now anyway. Was a hard 3 years. All that's left now is the graduation, which is on the 23rd

Well done Jarvio; I'm just about to (in September) start year 3 doing Film & Media studies -- I do wish I'd taken something a bit more academic ! But it does have it's fun lessons :007) Plus I write as many essays as I can on Bond, which is something I'm sure you can't do in Psychology

if everyone could send recovery wishes to my dog Garrett, that'd be wonderful. he had a bladder stone removed today, and is on a TON of antibiotics to combat a bladder infection. currently, he's still very groggy, but doing well. :x

Loeffelholz

Best wishes to Garrett! -{ I prescribe a specialised food, such as Hills' Prescription Diet S/D, which helps mitigate formation of future bladder stones. Excess phosphorous in the diet is a leading cause of bladder stones in dogs.

(Yes, my day job is far from Oscar Jade, LOL ;% )

our vet might give him a special diet in a few weeks...just gotta wait til the stitches come out to see!

the pooch is sleeping right where we set him when we brought him home. the anesthesia hasn't QUITE warn off for the poor guy yet...vet says he should be 80% himself in the morning!

Mr Martini

Best wishes to your dog Garret, Pen. After receiving some bad news earlier today I do hope something good comes to someone and that someone should be you and Garret. Here's to a speedy recovery.

Can't say too much right now, because it's all rather cloak-and-dagger, and hush-hush...but my brother, Another Loeffelholz, did a day's work on an upcoming major blockbuster film...with actual lines! Though a small part, it's a scene with the star of the movie, with 100% improvised dialogue...now, if he can just survive the cutting room! More info when I can...but you heard it here first! B-)

In The Times today there's a headline quoting the Vatican as saying that 'Female priests as sinful as child abuse'

I had no idea! I'll have to start dating female priests... I mean, child abuse is pretty sinful in my book. So female priests must be quite extraordinarily decadent... I can only imagine the sexual deviancy they get up to.

Never been too keen on nuns but I'd be "nun" to bothered if she gave me a few hail marys and so forth. Bloody nice.

Jarvio

I graduated yesterday

3 years and it's finally happened! All I can say is "about bloody time" lol

Jokes aside, it is such a relief to have that degree certificate! BSc (Hons) Psychology from the University of Liverpool!

Loeffelholz

Congratulations Jarv! {[] No wonder you can master those dastardly elimination games that have proven to be too much for my primate mind...

Pendragon

congrats, Jarvio!!! and with Honors as well -{


update on my dopey dog...the silly thing licked half his sutures out and had to get RE-Sutured. *face/palm* and I thought I'd caught him every time I heard licking...he's got some covert system I guess 8-)

Barbel

Well done there, Jarvio!

Jarvio

Feels strange that I'm officially not a student anymore, but good at the same time. Now onto the real world...

Attended my 30th ( ) high school reunion this last weekend in Lincoln, Illinois...haven't been out drinking this late---two nights in a row!---in decades...

What a blast...and, never one to miss a marketing opportunity these days, I sold out of books as well -{ I could get used to this drinking and getting paid business... B-)

yet another reason for me to hate airports. the stupid x-ray thing screwed up my SD card and erased over 60 pictures that I took on a hike with my aunt and mum. grr. I want to fly back to Albany and wring the stupid, rude TSA man by his neck. there's some memories I can never get back.

angry. hopefully my friend'll want to go to a pub for lunch. I need a large drink.
