*Flails uncontrollably* Less than two weeks till everything is due! OMG I'm so screwed! I have a project presentation due next Thursday for a project I'm not even close to finishing, a grad seminar I have to give (30 minutes long) that I have barely started and will require a decent amount of work, labs to mark, and a report for said project presentation. And some random invigilating thrown in. And a visit home this weekend, and I never get any work done on visits home. *Flails some more* And Christmas is approaching and I'm supposed to be making gifts as well as the standard shopping. *Runs around in a circle and collapses while still flailing* And yet, I've been stupid enough lately to keep taking breaks to re-play Mario Sunshine and I went to see Rent tonight. Lovely music incidentally. Mmm, Broadway on screen. With hot men and pretty ladies that can sing like nobody's business. I love it when Hollywood takes a hint and does something smart like keeping the original Broadway cast for a movie instead of recasting it with people like Justin Timberlake (apparently they were actually considering this oh yes). I'll leave anyone who likes musicals a chance to recoil in horror. Must go listen to Broadway songs to ease my mind.
Oh, and *Flails!*
That is all.
Except for the facts that the Fireside in Halifax has pretty pretty atmosphere and watching the Santa Claus parade while in a moderately snarky mood is fun. Especially while doing it with friends. Because you get to make comments like: "Ah, yes what a very traditional Christmas carol. I haven't heard this one in a while" whilst listening to a float blasting out Sweet Home Alabama. As James said, what a classic.
