On recent events
Okay, I feel The Internet and it's denizens probably deserve to know what's been going on lately. Just a little late Xposting to blurty, who I refuse to abandon.
In short (and that's all you're getting, as I am lazy) Newcastle have told me, after what seems like months of emailing around, that they aren't going to fund me. Oh poo. All is not lost however, as the scrabbling around for studentship places continues apace. There is one particularly sexy post in Durham that I'm pursuing concerning the physics of ultracold molecules (Bose-Einstein condensates and the like) that I'm way more qualified for than the other potential candidate. What? Unless sie's already done a project on how to do operator formalism on the things, I am. It's technically done in the chemistry department, which doesn't really bother me so much. It's quite entertaining to see just how many of the chemistry PhDs you can get onto with a good degree in physics, compared to the number of physics PhDs you can get onto with a good degree in chemistry... Smirk.
