Sounds of the library

The man opposite me in the library is snoring so loudly that it can be heard across the entire floor. Attempts to stifle my childish giggles have failed miserably. Essay word count = 0.

This is why

It can be hard to understand why we do what we do. I've never been truly able to explain why i love it so much, the blood and sweat and toil, that takes it from a sport to a way of life. Thankfully people like Jo Burt exist to shine a little light on our microcosm of society. This is why we are.

Je déteste écrire au sujet du caninum de N

Its truly amazing how far the average (in every respect at the moment) student will go to avoid writing essays! This time i have gone as far as to create my own blog and so write about everything and anything except for everyones favourite parasite Neospora caninum! So here i am sitting in a corner of the library listening to music and deciding to shine the interwebs light on my own little life. ( Did you know that N. caninum infected cattle are three to seven times more likely to suffer reproductive failure than uninfected cattle? Neither did I!)

Its just over 9 days till i get to step into my ski boots and go to my happy place in the hills! Getting to the hills whether on bikes or planks of wood (maybe carbon planks next season! I love you Radical Skis!!!) will be a recurring theme in this blog i fear. (pregnancy poses an interesting problem for the immune system of the mother as she is essentially carrying a semi-allogenics graft (the foetus) without immunological rejection taking place.) Suppose i'd better put these thoughts into a formed essay now so i shall leave you with the title of my next essay for you to think about!

"Which is the worst virus: Influenza A virus or Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV)?"
