The odd thing about selling out and doing comics by a deadline, is it gets other stuff out of you as well, like the magical ability to whip up a political satire in some three/four panels. It's sort of worrying, actually.

The last of the mystery tenants has now returned. Gio is very pleasant, friendly, easy to talk to and with a good sense of humour. He doesn't seem to mind sharing with us undergrads at all and actively tries to get us all talking which is great seeing as he's the only person who gets on well enough with everyone to make that a success. I actually did some work last night and fully intend to do more tonight. Here I come, Lagrangian dynamics!

The main thing I have to get used to when it comes to cooking for self is the difference in proportions. ( Of culinary stuff and the wonders of Maggi... )

I went to a plant fair yesterday and bought a small flowering cactus and a... something or other (it has a lone purple flower-like leaf sprouting from the middle and long thin leaves spread around it. I've completely forgotten what it's called). I was going to get a flytrap, but the only ones there were tiny babies that took a while to close (the, um, whiskers(?) weren't fully developed so it couldn't feel whether something was landing in it or not); I think I'll just save up for a bigger one.
