Craggy at Cambridge...
DON'T PM WITH ANY QUESTIONS ABOUT CAMBRIDGE UNLESS YOU'VE READ THE STICKIES IN THE OXBRIDGE AND CAMBRIDGE FORUMS! 
However, if you have any questions that can't be answered after a bit of time using 'forum search' in the Oxbridge section, and some level-headed thinking, please PM me. I'm always happy to provide any information or personal experiences and opinions.
I experience my course to be extremely hard work. Nonetheless, it fits me like a glove, and I love my environment. It is a great privilege to be here, and I'm savouring every moment 
After graduation I would like to take an MPhil and PhD and go into research for an NGO or think tank, but time will tell...

CLICK HERE TO READ MY SECOND YEAR RESEARCH PROJECT ABOUT REPUTATION ON TSR...

I use TSR to procrastinate and engage in mild social interaction. I don't like posting for posting's sake, and stick to areas that seem to have a point. I enjoy PS Helping and the MUN when I have time; both feel constructive. I also enjoy the Oxbridge forums and General University Discussion, which entail the exchanging of information (and unfortunate quantities of urban legends in the case of the former). All of these are connected to fairly life-transforming issues, and don't feel like a waste of time as a result.
This also happens alot:
If a person negs me anonymously and without a reason, I PM to give them a chance to defend their action. If they fail to do so, they receive neg. Aside from this I neg sparingly and only in extreme situations, such as objectively reprehensible behaviour (as opposed to negging for mere personal distaste).

This small, plump and tail-less guinea-pig-like animal is about as large as a
big rabbit and haunts rock outcrops, hillocks and mountain cliffs.
Behaviour
Rock Dassies like basking in the sun on large rocks, particularly during mornings and late afternoons...
