That sounds awesome, Lin! Glad you are loving the life American!

It goes, it goes for me. All to swiftly too. Working 40+ hours a week, and full time uni as well. Leaves little time for anything, really. What are you interning for?

I'm fine, thanks for asking Linaewen

Psst, Val... I can't tell you who took your Gold Urn, but erm... *checks to see if Tessar isn't looking before pointing at him*
Must be his gangsta-ness.

Whoa, you have so much on your plate! You must be so tired! What are you studying?

I'm interning for an organisation that provides legal assistance to indigent death row inmates. Pretty interesting since we haven't had the death penalty in Australia for decades.

Not all obsessions are bad in that regard. I do hope you'll grace us from time to time with a visit.

I'm a Compuuuuuuter Engineer now. Taking classes with Cisco though right now, fun times. Waiting for a bit of a breather before chasing after my Masters.

Now, your job sounds far more interesting! How'd you find it? My job is just clicking on things, installing things and write code and programs.

Whoa, that's a lot of studying! Good on you. I don't know how you manage to work full time on top of studying!

As for how I got my internship, there is an organisation in Australia called Reprieve (with sister branches in the UK and Holland) which sends interns to US several offices which do death penalty work. I just applied and was very happy to be accepted!

Tessar- Texas weather is awesome. It's winter and I'm sitting here in my t-shirt! I find it interesting that it will be around 31° F (-1°C) tomorrow night. Insane. It's almost like Melbourne in terms of temperature fluctuations except Melbourne has these fluctuations within one day, rather than within the week.

Boy, could I use that! I have a monster cold - a cousin to the one Bilbo had, methinks - and I'm going to the company Christmas party tonight. I'll be the one in the lovely lacy black dress with the red nose and a trail of kleenex behind her ...

Aaaanyway - Hooray for Jonathan's gorgeous Entmoot Christmas banner! Our old Ent looks great in that red hat! *raises her cup of tea*

Hiya! WOW IT'S WET! I love riding in the rain! WHEEEEEE! That and I had to fish some upturned kayakers out of the pond at work. Ech. Dumb grad students.

So, start up a fire, for I need to dry out. I'm currently stuck at work still, but thank goodness for spare sets of clothes.

"'And we're back on M.O.O.T. 102,2 with the Moots playing this special rendition of this classic Christmas song..."

You better watch out
You better not cry
Better not pout
I'm telling you why
Hector B is back on the Moot

He's making a list,
And checking it twice;
Gonna find out Who's naughty and nice.
Hector B is back on the Moot

He sees you when you're sleeping
He knows when you're awake
He knows if you've been bad or good
So be good for goodness sake!

O! You better watch out!
You better not cry.
Better not pout, I'm telling you why.
Hector B is back on the Moot
Hector B is back on the Moot
