Working From Home

Our modern world allows us to have a special kind of a working day best known as working from home. Here is how the day starts:

08:03 - Trying to get the wireless on my work laptop to work
08:38 - Wireless finally on, now need to connect to company network
08:42 - Computer not working at all - restarting...
08:51 - Finally connected to work network

...let the working from home start!

Placement Essay (The Tale Begins)

Beware! The long lost son has returned...

I am now back in Bulgaria having my winter holiday and it would have been weird had was I not doing uni work, yet again. For the past three years I have not had a winter holiday in which I can just sit back, relax and enjoy the winter as I used to do before.

Anyway I should leave those ignorant thoughts behind me. The bright side is that I keep, even while working nine-till-five, diving into the well of knowledge that is the Aston online library (or the e-library). I have spent my day reading (and falling asleep while reading) different articles written by known and unknown scientists. I hope that by Christmas I at least have a vision of my placement essay. The problem is that there are so many topics and so many directions (or chemin as the French say) that I can develop my thoughts in.

So, let's trace how far I can get in one week...
