# aarrg no!!
i quit maths after GCSE because i hated it more than satan. In my first semester at uni i had a maths module, covering all the bits i missed by not doing A-level maths.... i was not best pleased.

# Mmmm calculus
It makes me wet. Especially calculus on vector fields. Mmmm. And multivariate differential equations. Mmmm.

WHY THE FUCK DID I CHOOSE A PHYSICS DEGREE???

And breathe.

# This is York
Apparently we do scientific psychology.
I don't have a problem with the stats per se, it's just I'm currently wrestling with some particularly unpleasant numbers in a very badly written paper [Euler et al, 2001, if anyone's interested]

# oh my god!
so did i, it must be a conspiracy against maths haters! i have since quit my biochemistry degree course cos it was harder than a hard thing and i am a lazy shit. after my world tour this year (thailand, australia, san francisco) i shall be returning to the same uni to do psycho social studies, which being an arts degree, should at least have less timetabled stuff. (biochem was 14 hours lectures plus 8 hours practical per week)
