what the hell is the p-value?!?

stats are killing me. assignment due on tuesday - but of course, it needs to be done long before then because i also have an anthropology presentation and an economics essay due next week. and i'm going home on the weekend of the 24th... this was all very badly planned. sigh.
i do find a strange sense of satisfaction in having some form of understading of stats. despite hating the subject. i'm not doing too badly in following up on my courses (more or less) but i do find it stressful how i can't seem to be able to find a structure to any of my subjects. i guess this sort of problem goes with covering a lot of ground in subjects i've never studied before in very little time. still, it makes me feel kind of stupid and that of course annoys me - because if there is one thing i've never felt before was being stupid. oxford does that to you (everybody i've spoken to here feels pretty much the same way though, so again, i guess it's alright!).
i'll have a lot of catch up to do over christmas - and also a lot of preparation to do for next term. i need to get started on a few assignments so that i won't be too stressed out over hilary. most of all, i need to learn to manage my time properly.
enough ranting about uni; m is about to come over and we shall watch a house episode or two. i'm loving house actually, it's pretty good (and has some wicked characters). i haven't watched good tv series in far too long!
maybe it's time i bought that spaced dvd...
ah. for once i feel relaxed - i've done lots of work today! yay.
plan for the rest of the week: lectures and work tomorrow and friday, and then friday formal hall followed by cocktail night in the bar! it shall be fun.
the one thing keeping me sane is waking up next to m every morning. i can't help it. it makes every single day better.
how silly of me.
