    That's odd, email. I wasn't aware that I attended one of the UK's top universities.

    Maths test. Did some study then played TF2 all night because I probably wouldn't wake up in time for it even having set an alarm. Now more study, oh, yay, wave equations..

    Tables were being delivered to Sports Hall this morning from whatever Indiania-esque warehouse they're stored in.

    Funny, I tend to miss Christmas a lot during college.

    Why do I always leave essays to the last minute? Really cannot wait for the Chrsitmas holidays.

    Coffee machine in the museum building with 50cent coffee. Nom.

    Also, if you ask the security man at front arch if you can leave and come back in they're usually pretty sound about it.

    :eek: Where is this little treasure?

    What's the story with Museum Building? Are we allowed in? Are we not? I've heard rumours of security men kicking people out. But.. Hamilton swipey cardy thingy wasn't working :mad: so I went in.

    Museum building is my second home in exam season. 24 hour toilets, coffee/hot chocolate, loud echoey amazingness, dinosaurs... been using the classroom and lecture hall lately for a bit of group study too. I've been using it since last year and have never met security in there, although I've heard of people being apprehended in there before.

    The 60c coffee machine is up the big stairs and to the right, in the little hallway area thing situation.

    Thank you! Will be off to get a coffee in a bit :)
    Yeah.. those dinosaurs.. I have a slight fear of the whole "Night At the Museum" thing kicking off. But i'll brave it for a coffee.

    There was a man in a high vis jacket there earlier, but he just took his hood down and stood at the top of the stairs watching me when I went in so maybe they're cool about it. Or maybe I should be more worried about him rather than the dinosaurs.

    And so, study is abandoned in favour of "spot the boardsie in the 24 hour room"... every single person in here having a laptop doesn't help.

    I have a hunch that you're the guy in the corner furthest away from the entrance. Also, this is weird.

    OK, my turn again.

    Dude with the big headphones, glasses, and mac, facing the back wall?

    This game is tense. Every guess I make reveals more about my location...

    Surely the repeated looking around the room followed by furious typing gave him away?

    The way I'm facing makes it difficult to sneaky look at people without being seen to have a gawk...

    Nawh, that was a guy in my class. I have no coffee money, and I just had one of those awful energy boost shot things in an act of desparation. Where the hell are you!?

    Aha! Some gentle cyberstalking has revealed your deceptive gender. Search begins anew!

    Why is it that internet people are automatically male until proven otherwise? Hmm...

    See, now I'm just self-conscious about looking for you in case you're secretly laughing at me somewhere :(

    I did just laugh at that.. :D
    I could just stand up and wave. Although I think everyone else might find it a little strange
