Hello everyone! It seems like ages since I was on here last, and I suppose it probably was. I have been mega busy recently, trying to finish off my Masters degree. I have offered to give a paper at a conference next month and that is taking up a lot of my time at the moment - I am really nervous but it will be a great experience...

One more summer of university work - writing a thesis, and volunteering at an archaeological dig to gain more experience. Then I am going to have to grow up and join the 'real world' of work...job hunting is not going well.

I hope everyone is well - what have you been up to?

I would love to do a PhD, but I need to join the world of work at least briefly to refill the old bank account and also to find a suitable topic idea (it is harder than you might think!).

I think kitten pictures are necessary Very Happy

@Vagilik - I am trying to stay at uni for as long as possible - preventing this 'joining the real world and finding a job' nonsense hehe. It can't last forever though - I really do want to find someone willing to pay me to do the job I have spent the last few years training to do! Now is not a great time to be jobhunting though...

@Helen - I saw those piccies, they look adorable. Would be lovely to see them growing up Smile
