Sarah and Duck and Penguins and Sloths

Browsing through Stan last night, came across this show called “Sarah and Duck“. So, obviously, had to watch it. Selected one of the episodes at random, titled “Sarah, Duck and the Penguins“. In this episode, Sarah’s googling activities to do, and she and Duck decide to dress up as a zookeeper and a penguin respectively and go to the zoo.

And then they arrive at the zoo, and there’s a sloth! And Sarah’s standing next to it! If you look closely you can see it’s even pictured on the zoo map sign.

I love moments like this.

The Invigilator.

Got asked to supervise an undergrad test today. It was pretty weird! I haven’t sat an exam in a few years, but it was weird to be on the other side of it.

I had a look at the test as well. Don’t think I’d be able to do it. I think all that stuff exited my brain a long time ago.

Out of action…

Sorry I haven’t posted in a while. This last week has been thesis, thesis, thesis. As you can imagine, staring at the computer all day… you just want a rest once the day’s done.

On the plus side, I’ve finished the first full draft of my entire thesis. My second primary paper has been resubmitted with revisions. I’ve written an article for the uni science magazine. It’s been busy!

Going to try and post a little bit more over the next few days to make up for my slackness! (Hey, call it sloth-like.)slothlook
