Z31: April 2006
http://sjmaloney.blogspot.com/2006_04_01_archive.html
Saturday, April 29, 2006. So it’s a full year since I was revising for my finals, and I've been wondering whether this year hasn't been harder than the last. OK, obviously. 1) feedback every few days or weeks: someone saying ‘this was good’ or ‘it would have been better if’. Improving something without any feedback as to what's wrong with it is extraordinarily difficult in comparison. 2) a clearly-defined timescale and the reasonably safe knowledge that, if you make the effort, things will turn out OK.

Thursday, June 30, 2005. Stephen's last night in town. As Ben Folds almost put it. No doubt will blog copiously in due course. Posted by Z31 at 11:00 pm. Close Encounters of the Cambridge kind. I really don't want to lose contact with everyone; I really do want to see people this summer and hopefully beyond! I can't think of any good plans myself, mind. I have far, far too much hair. Not much I can do about it before Friday though. I was meant to be going to bed. Oops. Posted by Z31 at 3:46 am. I couldn'...

Z31: January 2006

Tuesday, January 31, 2006. Do you suppose the 'desirable' criteria in a person specification are? I rather imagine that it's not actually worth applying for something unless you meet the 'desirable' as well as the 'essential' criteria, on the basis that if you don't, they're likely to be able to find another applicant who does. Of course many person specifications are so vague that I wouldn't know if I did. Posted by Z31 at 5:38 pm. That said, if you watch such TV programmes as the Deadly Knowledge Show.

Z31: December 2005
http://sjmaloney.blogspot.com/2005_12_01_archive.html
Friday, December 30, 2005. I've been reading Eats, Shoots and Leaves. And why not), and was struck by the note that "they're", "their" and "there" all sound the same, and that "you're" sounds like "your". Does anyone else disagree with this? Fascinating stuff, no? Apologies for the somewhat laboured punctuation. I suppose I can't leave this topic without revisiting again that classic Amazon review that went something like. Thi's film ha's me in stitche's every time. Posted by Z31 at 3:47 pm. I can't see ...

Z31: February 2006

Tuesday, February 28, 2006. Some fell on stony ground, I see. No matter: four fresh comments to tempt you:. Of course it's not necessary to have a film to show you the way at all points of life, but it might be nice. Some friends were expounding the other day on a theory that whatever the life event, one can find succour in Dawson's Creek. To which I adopted a standard smile/nod/make-sarcastic-remark approach. But who knows, maybe they're right. Quiet in here, isn't it? 3 Some guy on Today. 4 Most import...

Z31: November 2005

Wednesday, November 30, 2005. 5/10, oh the shame. Posted by Z31 at 6:58 pm. Tuesday, November 29, 2005. To Sherry, weekend-related bloggery will have to wait til tomorrow. I now have 192 firms in my spreadsheet of graduate recruiters and I'm hoping this number will begin to go down. Tomorrow. It's come to my attention that deadlines have begun to whizz past again. So, Lord Of The Rings, sleep, and a bright early start for more spreadsheeting in the morning. Posted by Z31 at 1:43 am. In nine minutes :).

Z31: March 2006
http://sjmaloney.blogspot.com/2006_03_01_archive.html
Friday, March 31, 2006. Feeling terribly rakish, because I've just edited the Wikipedia! I changed 'right' to 'left' in the article on Tony Gardner. Did you know that there's to be an eighth series of My Parents Are Aliens. With none of the previous cast except Tony Gardner and Carla Mendonça? In danger of jumping the shark, they say. Posted by Z31 at 9:57 pm. You have a mediocre 5/10 to beat - "you have dabbled in the world of iPods but still rely on your Windows PC" - the nerve! Thursday, March 30, 2006.
