What exactly is there to cry about in the first 10 episodes?[/color]

Well, I always tear up while watching the third episode. And the seventh and eighth episodes really get to me. I've found that I have very maternal feelings towards Ed. Most of his tragic moments envoke that motherly "
He needs a hug!" reflex in me. What can I say? I'm a big softy.

another biologist??

HUZZAH!! There are several of us in this forum, I have discovered...so I always feel like i'm in such good company!!! What year are you?
I'm a first year. It's strange, because back home we always say "freshman". But things are so different here. I suppose that's part of the reason I love it so much. I'm always challenged to adapt.

That's kinda how a group of us got the rest of our friends hooked on it...there are a few that are being resistant...but they will succumb to the dark side in time..MWahahaha!
Yeah, it's always only a matter of time.

My friends back home have a betting pool for how many "converts" I'll have by the end of the year...

Hoo, good thing I switched out of the sciences when I could. I value my health far too much.

They honestly do work you to death, don't they?
Yeah, they really do. I have lectures from nine until eleven every morning, sometimes followed by a third lecture. Then we have all the
labs; we have two labs every Monday, with the afternoon one lasting for three hours. Out of the five school days this week, I had one of those nightmarish afternoon labs on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday. And I also had to squeeze two tutorials in amongst this mess, and had to find time to write two papers for them.
It's sheer madness.
Thank God it's Friday. That's all I have to say.
(Though I
do have to get up early tomorrow morning. Our head tutor scheduled a biology trip to the London museum, so we have to somehow find our own way there before the tour starts. It's going to be carefully controlled
chaos, I just know it...
