Something that has to do with history or politics, as those interest me.
Not sure what it'd be exactly though.

Yeah... sucks, but we're improvising quite well, I think.Alucard 11189 said:Ah, that sucks, a Ph.D friend of mine is in a similar situation due to funding troubles. But yeah, I love transition metal chemistry, I have always loved biological inorganic chemistry. You have no option but to like it when you are taught by the infamous Professor Martyn PoliakoffAt least you have a guy willing to cheer everyone up. In my group I had a chinese guy that didn't speak much, a guy with OCD who was always in a bad mood, one girl who never showed up (and subsequently didn't graduate) and a girl who was a pole dancer in her spare time.
As for the last thing, anytime! *bows*
Anyway, yeesh, that's a rather... awkward research group. Uh, my chemistry lab consists of a camp French guy, a gorilla (the name guy), a perpetually drunk genius, a guy who grows a full beard in a day and bollocks people with a grin, a bolshy (in a good way) Turk, a genial but short tempered gardener and a gun-crazed former industrial chemist. Yes, we get quite a fair few interesting conversations throughout the day.
And... wow, you've gotten lectures from Prof Green Chemistry! *jealous*
During my UG days, I quite enjoyed green/environmental chemistry/green solvents. *sigh* A long time ago now...
Heh. Prof. Poliakoff wasn't just a lecturer of mine, he was also one of my personal tutor. It made for some awesome tutorials, the nicest guy you could ever hope to meet. Had a strange habit of trying to get his tutee's to watch his brothers films, made for some very odd emails.SckizoBoy said:Yeah... sucks, but we're improvising quite well, I think.Alucard 11189 said:Ah, that sucks, a Ph.D friend of mine is in a similar situation due to funding troubles.

Your research group actually sounds like a cool group of people actually, it seems easy to know why you would have interesting conversations
. As for the whole money thing, I hope it get's better soon, it's good that you are handling it well 
Always seemed so odd to me... whenever teen chicks got tattoos on their asses we've always called them "tramp stamps", "ass antlers" or "the runway" ... "game station" ... attention marks, really, call it what it is. Never a "cutie mark", that's an interesting euphemism. I suppose it's fairly clever for that.
I have tattoos, I have several, but I can't say I'd ever refer to art on my arse as a "cutie mark".

Hrm...probably my avatar. If you can't see it well, it's a pair of dragons coiling together into the shape of a star. I am a serious dragon addict, rivaled only by my gaming addiction, but since I can't use that, there ya go.
Probrably somthing like the T'au insignia because I have a passion for videogames and a fondness for the T'au in particular.
For the Greater Good!

To have a tutorial with the guy (even though his specialty is nothing to do with what I do... =P).Alucard 11189 said:Heh.

Anyway, that's just the chemistry lab group, the ecology lab group is another eclectic mix with one common factor: good food! Every one of them is a mean baker/chef, lunch times never get boring, I tell you. Cheese, cake and fruit make some sort of appearance every day, quite cool actually.
And hopefully the whole funding farce should be cleared up soon enough. My supervisor is taking it in good humour so everyone's relaxed a little over this week.
Mine would be the glyph
