I now have (or had, when I checked on Wednesday morning) a desk at RMIT. This is good!

Unfortunately I don't have a key to get into the PhD room, or a pass to get beyond reception on the floor. Despite going to weekly meetings since the start of February, the receptionist won't actually let me in before the meeting starts - lest I become the sort of "unaccompanied visitor" that departmental emails warn about, marauding about the workplace. Fortunately the reception area has comfy couches.

Apparently, most of my problems stem from the fact that I don't actually exist. If I seem to have spent a couple of months drifting phantom-like from one meeting to the next, it's actually because I'm not real. My days of freedom appear numbered though, as I've heard rumours that my enrolment forms may have resurfaced.

One day, they promise, I'll be a real person. Real People (tm) can have access cards and keys issued to them. They might even be able to buy a computer and get access to the IT network, though nobody is willing to make any guarantees on that. After becoming a Real Person, I can even enrol in (and submit assessment for) the Research Methods course I've attended for the last three weeks.

Unreal.
