ioftenthinkofamerica asked: I am going to the exhibition soon aswell!Also he is giving lecture this year to my course and he is working with the students on the third year of the course, some even get the chance to assist him. If I dont puke from excitementt when I see him I might even manage to speak to him
That is so incredible! What an opportunity if you get to assist too. Clearly you have a passion for his work, so good luck - make sure your lecturer knows what a big fan you are, and that you put yourself forward even if you’re in a lower year, the worse he can say is no but he’ll remember your enthusiasm next year and the in future. I don’t know why I’m saying that, but I just really want to tell you to grab the chance with both hands! I wasted so many opportunities at uni. I’d love to know more about what you study, and where? I’m assuming you’re in the UK too since you called it a course and referred to ‘third year’ students. Keep us all here informed if you go to the exhibition, and also after his lecture? I’d be very interested in your impression of him, as would a lot of followers I’m sure.
Is anyone else planning on going? Was anyone lucky enough to hear him speak? Tickets sold out by the time I knew it was happening which made me sad! I’d love people to share their experiences though? (Please remember I welcome submissions too!)
