Hallo.
I wasn't going to actually update until perhaps tomorrow, but, with my tendency to procrastinate, i just cannot resist! I have before me two copies of one essay due in tomorrow. The other is waiting to be printed, but since the printer credit top-up station has mysteriously stopped working, it shall have to wait. I am used to such inevitabilities; something always, without a shadow of a doubt, goes wrong for me when i need to hand my work in. I no longer panic and instead become subdued by the horror of it all.
It is very much a relief to think that that is it with regards to actual modular coursework! I am done, i am dusted! (Unless, of course, i have to repeat, or something awful like that.) However, dissertationing has taken somewhat of a back-burner and i'm now quietly panicking about that. I still have that 1,500 words and a plan to do and, although it doesn't sound that bad in theory, in practise it is actually quite scary. I want it to be good. I want it to be a piece of work that i can show to people and say 'this is my final year piece and i am proud of it!' This is probably why i have been putting it off. It scares me so much that i'm not sure where to start and i don't want John to tell me it isn't very good. I'm lying a bit, since i actually HAVE started. I have 400 words done, but it is very drafty and it has taken me a while. Oh gosh, make it stop.
I'm looking forward to bit and bobs of this coming week. Apparently there is a coursemate meal tomorrow afternoon following the handing in of doom. This should be nice, although i can really only afford...nothing. On thursday it's High Voltage at the Music Box, where i plan to get rather tipsy and avoid my friday seminar! By next weekend, i might have a couple of rather exciting things to reveal that i have been keeping just a little bit secret! &by next weekend, i will be at home, throwing myself fully into this dissertation of course!
Tonight, i am making tea with Stu and i can't wait, yummy roast veg goodness, mmm. I'm envisioning a proper health kick soon, i actually feel enthusiastic about the prospect! Last night, we made home made pizza and it was the nicest one yet. I love you food.
Finally, i will attempt to read a lot more of Interview With the Vampire (or is it 'a' vampire?) by Anne Rice for my thursday seminar all about vampires!
