Dissertation and Revision (with inferred Procrastination)

Aye it is that time of year again, Exams (yayyyy!)

This year has been different however, with the supplementation of a dissertation to write too. Although this is fairly old news now, MY DISS IS DONE!!!! (genuine yayyyy!) and handed in. 

Although it was hard work, it was a surprising amount of fun to achieve the best part of nothing over the year. Yes I can reveal exclusively that my project proved to be nonviable on any scale as it didn't work, which in itself is a conclusion. Well the conclusion being that will was bloody ambitious to allow students to use reactants worth upto £100 for 5g... 

Having said that I now know a fair bit about the exotic sounding 'Iridium Complexes' (not as fun as it sounds) and cross coupling reactions (not sure where to go with that (you can make your own jokes for that one(disclaimer: if you offend yourself with your own joke, I did not lead you to it and therefore am not responsible, unless it was a funny joke, then I take full responsibility))) and other varying amounts of complicated words for things that are relatively simple. 

The obvious link to all this would be that magical work 'helping' association to revision and uni, procrastination. I have never known how interesting nutritional values and the ingredients to crisps are until I had NMR spectra to interpret, same with counting and sorting my random coppers lying about into date order and pattern. I joke, the dates would have been too much work, I would have started procrastinating in a vicious cycle.
Also the temptation to make the most of torrents to find new games and music and movies and pretty much whatever the hell else is incredible. It is amazing that I managed to resist all of this temptation and got on with my manager career of FIFA12, Oh errr I mean my 8,154 word report on my project (and FIFA) managing to be organised and not in a panic or writing on the day of submission. 


It's a first.... well hopefully
