Exams, Exams

Racking up those experience points from the side-quests of attempting a few past year papers, taking a single level in Mugger in the process (with specialization in Logical Elimination/Advanced Resignation), armed with my Trusty Pilot G-1 Grip of Smooth Writing +2 [Resistance against Uneven Ink] and Twin Powered Sharp EL-546VA Calculator of Accelerated Computation +3 [Bonus Defence against Lengthy Near Meaningless Calculations For The Sake Of It +5]. Happened to come across yet another webcomic deserving of a mention through my directionless surfing. Oh, and Russell's Teapot got its day in the sun.

UROP poster presentation over, don't really want to talk too much about it, but here's the poster (words probably slightly smaller than ideal, but designed from pre-presentation knowledge and observations only):



United take on Chelsea for the title in a few hours, so here's a warm-up match:



Time for the long-overdue accountancy work, and it seems I am on... *whips out {TP} Sharp EL-546VA {of AC} [+5]* $2754.75/$2750. I could plausibly claim a virtual net profit on the season by sitting out the remaining few rounds (not allowing for the time value of money, though local interest rates are (just barely) positively lousy these days), but let's not set up stall as negatively as United did to my regret against Barca, shall we? Not sure where the New Paper has gone to, so I'll grab the (opening) odds directly from the Singapore Pools website this time:

$50 on Arsenal to beat Derby (at 1.20) - Gunners' season may have ended, but Derby are still Derby
$25 on Liverpool to beat Birmingham (2.20) - Probably the best value of all the week
$25 on Man Utd to beat Chelsea (2.85) - Market has it down as a draw, but United are made for these matches

And the hamsters, always the hamsters...
