connecting

Two very nice connections today. Just before starting the reading group at UCL, Tim tells me he has been reading my blog and liking it (maybe with the exception of the fact that I am a Man Utd fan, which was the first thing he read on the blog, sorry Tim :) ) Of course everyone who stumbles on my blog becomes hooked right away, what can I say? I am an interesting person with an interesting blog :) This is not the first virtual connection Tim and I had, being one of the instructors in the online course I did last year. But the most important time we connected, as he was reminding me today, was when we met in one of the chatrooms and I was telling him of my dream to do my PhD in the UK. Wow.. a lot has happened in my life since then, luckily all good things :)

Then after the reading group I have been connecting with Hanna, the Middlesex graduate who's now doing the MA in Pragmatics at UCL. So there we were, two Middlesexian girls gossiping about our university and the people there (saying all nice things of course :) no really, they are nice). It's great having a fellow Middlesexian there, it feels like we have things in common.

Ok, that's all for now. I have to go connect with my cooker, maybe I can convince it to make dinner on its own :)
