Getting organised...

3 home office zones

5 steps to a permanently cleaner office

Desktop zones

It's all about the zones. Apparantly...

I wish I was one of those naturally uber-organised-neat-freak type people, who has everything organised all of the time. I try. I try hard. But it just feels like a cycle of intense tidying followed by a slow but steady decline into a natural state of organised chaos, followed by intense tidying, followed by...
You get the picture.

irn bru snowman

Irn Bru Snowman advert

(For those that don't know, Irn Bru is a soft/fizzy drink made in Scotland, orange in colour, distinctive in taste and filled with sugar. I have no idea how they make it, but it tastes great on a summers day.)

I want to make some dandelion root coffee!!!

It sounds like fun, and with a potentially tasty result.
But I don't know anywhere nearby where I can get some dandelions which a dog hasn't used as a toilet.
Blah.
But if, one day, in the future, I happen upon a place with plenty of fresh (unlikely-to-be-peed-upon) dandelions, I shall be able to refer to these instructions.
mmmm...

oh, and a dandelion profile from the early 1900's for the interested.

i googled 'bored medical student'...

(as you do) and found the following:

surprisingly topical article written in 1905 about the state of the new breed of medical student

some very academic letters about how medical students learn - the highlight being: 'Assessing the quality of repeated theatre experience is difficult. We suspect that surface learners are uninterested the first time they see an operation, bored the second time, and do not turn up the third; that deep learners compare and contrast first with second and second with third, and that strategic learners ask what is going on in the theatre next door. That, however, is speculation; it is time someone measured these things properly.' (yup, that was the highlight)

medical students and their career preferences - with the enlightening statement (with regard to choices): 'Students differed from college students, the women differed from the men, and the Asian Americans differed from the other groups. ' .
would never have guessed.

Dylan Wilson , a medical student back in 1999, recommends medical students have experience as an inpatient. He relates his experiences...

So, this is medical school . I read this a few years ago, was quite nice to find it again. (Liam Farrell, GP, relating experiences, and giving advice).

i googled 'last page of the internet'...

... and found more than 1... (606,000,000 to be precise, mmmm)

1
2
somewhat snazzy no. 3
the relief of 4
ta DAA (and a fanfare!! of numero 5)
claiming to be the one true end... no.6
awesome! at no. 7
and even wikipedia has a say on this matter... being very matter of fact 'Strictly speaking, such pages would be the first or last page of the World Wide Web, not the Internet.'

clearly, i have reached a state beyond even ordinary boredom. eugh.
