Checking in and new features

Hi guys! Just checking in with a few updates etc.

Well, the new uni semester is well and truly under-way now. The course has finally started to get interesting (and complicated) with all sorts of obscure equations, methods and theories to get my head around. Funderful! This hasn't been helped by the inevitable beginning-of-the-year flu that's been going around, which of course I caught immediately, so all in all it's not been the easiest start to the year. Despite all that, things are going fairly well. Uni life is pretty good and is always interesting in one way or another, so I can't complain. The fact that the sun has finally decided to come out has also helped my mood. Snow too. Yay!

Anyway, I'm finally getting through that mountain of messages as well. It's taken quite a few weeks but I'm getting there. So now that is almost out of the way I feel I can start focusing on my work again without feeling guilty and/or lazy. I'll be submitting at least one new picture later today, and there are many more to come, including some images from my recent trip to Austria (there'll be more info about that in the images themselves). You may have noticed that I've also changed my avatar as well. Farewell, faithful old icon! I'll miss you, but it's time for a change. I think I also need a new ID as well, but I'm not sure what to go for yet. I'll put my thinking cap on.

Hope everything is good with you guys. See you around!

It's also high time for a new weekly feature. Despite the name it's actually been about 6 months since the last one so I need to get that going again. The one good thing about having so many deviations in my inbox I've also got the next 3 or 4 weeks already lined up, so that should make things easier.

Enjoy!
