Is is a cloudy Thursday, and I am grateful …

... that I had the time to spice up the science centre’s presentation on Antarctica with a live demo.

... that the first two groups of students I taught this year was interested and involved.

... that I found the session so unstressful that I didn’t feel the need to rush off to the gym during my lunch break to recover. This is a great improvement over the first year I did this. (This is not a good excuse to skip gym, I know.)

... that not trying to remember the students’ names does not make a jot of a difference to the quality of my teaching.

... that I feel tired but not much stressed.

... for a delightful encounter on the stairs.
