Re: A thread by any other name...

Ah the nostalgia. I posted on this back in 2003! I'm an 'old sinner'- graduated in 2005. Just dropped by to see what's happening in sinner land. What became of this old sinner? I did a D.Phil at Oxford and got a Knox scholarship to Harvard. St Andrews will always have a bit of my heart. I still can'...

Re: After my MLitt?

Hello. You sound like someone who wants to stay in academia and pursue a career there. I am a medievalist who did an undergrad at St Andrews in English, and then went to Oxford to do an M.St.(equivalent on M.Litt in St Andrews), and latterly a D.Phil (PhD) on medieval literature, which I'm currently...

Re:

Illnesses aren't chosen, but behaviours sometimes are. Anorexia is an extreme end of a behavioural spectrum. This is why cognitive behavioural therapy can often help people with eating disorders. But it spirals into an illness very quickly, I think. It's very paradoxical that most people resorting t...

Re:

If you were ill or have a disability, you could argue that you are being discriminated against because of it- being treated as someone who failed when this is not the case. check back through your emails- have you had one at any point outlining the stuff that was verbally agreed?

Kate Bush, This Woman's Work

Oh, darling, make it go,
Make it go away.

Give me these moments back.
Give them back to me.
Give me that little kiss.
Give me your hand.

To whoever it was that said spelling isn't important because "it only affects how other people understand you." That is a huge thing!

I for one am immensely proud that this constituency took the stand that it did. I think it sends a very powerful message to the rest of Scotland too. Scotland will become independent within the next ten years. (edited for sticky spacebar on Aberdeen University campus computer) [hr] Intelligence can ...

Don't even talk to me about Orange. They are such a load of wankers. I got stung for nearly 500 quid by them for 2 months before Christmas.

Re:

Oh wow. That *is* close. I think you would have to go to the borderline panel- or whatever it's called- where they look at people in your position. I would imagine they would round it up, but you can't be sure...Good luck!

Re:

I always greeted people in St Andrews. When I did it in Oxford, no one ever said hello back or even made eye contact. One of the things I miss most about StAndrews is how people say hello and are courteous.

Nursing is a doss if you can get to the final placement after three years and believe that holding someone upright when they have fainted someone helps them; equally, if you don't know to lie the person flat.
