I thought you ought to know these things

May 21, 2007 22:47

My last entry was somewhat truncated; for a variety of reasons, and the main one of these was time management. Due to unexpected developements, the globule of my evening that I had mentally allocated to writing my journal was partially subsumed by writing a Tempest essay and some Ethics, because they in turn were stolen by something else ( Read more... )

alcohol, garden, bismarck pwwwns j00, travel, shakespeare, liz, time, aren't i interesting?, sarah, weatherheads, friends, oxford, drama, medical parents, exams, theology, impromptu barbecue, crazy conversations, audience participation, poetry, alexei

Congrats! You and Alexei can meet regularly for mischief. With many enjoyable afternoon outings of languid boating through the awesome waterways present at Oxford... *chuckles at the things you spot*
At least you were not asked to write about the Gordon Riots. For which Peter Bailey's account of his own answer in "An Immaculate Mistake" was hilarious.

And of course, a little prezzie. *salutes*

I'm only going for two days. :P Sarah's probably more likely to boat that Alexei, because she's on the rowing team, I believe -- and what exactly do you spot, or observant one? :P

I m very glad that I didn't, because they were in the wrong country and the wrong century. That said, religious intolerence is always fun to play with...

And :DDDDDDDD. Shakespeare is a far beter hero than the big S anyway... :P

You remind me of... a mormon who just discovered psychedelic spray paint, ahahahaha! I observe a lot of typos in simple words but not complicated spelling. Also, that you're obsessed with your own face. Bwahahahaha! As to what I really spot, that's... ;p

See, for a moment, I thought you'd gained official entrance to the hallways of Oxford and got giddy, then couldn't read the rest of the sentence. Misled! Oxford! No offence to Cambridge, but Oxford's a lot more happening and also, when a cousin got into that institution, I was all relieved, because at least it meant that I wouldn't be missing another cousin's graduation from Cambridge for the 4th time.

Yes. I would consider introducing you to wank about iambic pentameter when reciting Shakespeare... but here's a funnier idea. Hamlet: The Unseen Perspective. I'm not sure about the 2 SSes squaring off, but I'll take dessert over them anyday.

Hahaha, you are made of awesome. :D Can I dscover E numbers too? :P (And that's probably true; I have to thik slightly more when I use long words, and therefore notice when my fingers hit the wrong keys. Or I ust love them more and therefore pay more attention to them...)

And no I'm not; it's, um, a continuation of the artistic vision inherent in this journal, because just as it represents a true-but-distorted representation of myself and my life, those images are all photographs -- taken by a camera which never lies but can be made to bend the truth in aesthetically interesting ways...

Honest.

I wish I had gained official entrance, and would love to at some point. :D I agree on the 'bridge assesment; I also prefer the course at Oxford. and two of the focus-points of my fannish idolatry have gone there, but that's got nothing to do with it.

That link is rather awesome. You must go and see Rosencrantz And Guildenstern Are Dead; and I probably could be induced, given my Sylvia Plath wankery a while ago...

Sure, take E numbers! I tend to use E as short for 'The', with a bum wiggle. Soz, your wickedy bushy eyebrows 'thick as a swordsman's wrist' as the saying goes were a giveaway. Also, your UST love is adorable, even when sounding discombobulated, wee 'un. And the in-moi-face really made me laugh, because it's soooooooooo cute. And colourful. Like rainbow chipmunks. Good cam. Can I pinch yer cheeks? XD

I didn't get very far into the Indiana forum comments linked in the above summary, before the 2nd comment about Shakespeare being Old English induced a fit of giggles. I say: Beowulf, Chaucer and then Shakespeare. Someone doesn't know their Renaissance English. Or does, but doesn't quite know what they are actually referring to.

Well, you can aim at official entrance still! And join the choir to warble possibly offkey in style at the masses! 'Tis not too far away, is it ( ... )
