*me mysteriously appears in a puff of smoke*
Bad headache.... slept at past 1 am last night, woke up at 6am,
said my morning prayers, and woke up again at 7 am.
By right my experiments should end by this Friday..... but my
prof wants me to continue with a few more experiments. Since the
lab's funds for the final year students are busted, I've had to do
some scraping, begging, and cajoling for the materials I need.
And I have to wait a couple of weeks for some of the
components.... meaning that I'm gonna have to do some experiments
'under the radar'. Can't do anything for now till those components
arrive.
Oh well..... as my prof pointed out, those experiments would
make my thesis more complete.
Besides, he was even willing to pay for all those materials out
of his own pocket if the lab had refused to pay any more. 
good work if he is willing to pay for the stuff himself..
he's obviously impressed
