HELL YES EXAMS ARE OVER CAPSLOCK GLEE...is what I would say, except I've been guilt-tripped into resitting the piano diploma I already failed twice, purely because the mother is bitter about never getting music lessons as a kid and doesn't approve of me going off to do Maths and Physics instead. (She admitted that much. I've run out of the energy I ( Read more... )

A list of the crap currently wrong with my computer (not the Mac, which I'm typing from, but the desktop which I believe is slightly older than my brother):

( stuff a reinstall can deal with, though it's a pain )

Back to school tomorrow, which means dropping off the face of LJ again.

( Somewhat late 2010 round-up meme )

( I went to my first uni open day yesterday! It was at Warwick! It was mostly :D with a hint of -_- and a lot of rain. )

Personal itinerary starting from the middle of June:

( Of course I should worry about these upcoming exams before thinking forward to uni, but I can't help myself )

The results for January's exams came in on Thursday, and mine were underwhelming: AAB, with the B in Decision Maths, and not a particularly high B either. I decided not to try and resit for the time being, though - I heard that they were likely to fall on a particular Wednesday in June, which I really don't want to risk.

The good bit is that that horrible uniform is gone, and on a couple of days every fortnight I can sneak out of school during break because I don't have lessons in the afternoon; the bad bit is that none of my study-appropriate clothes (what do you have ( Read more... )

Things I don't get, entry #42: people who obsess over audio quality. Well, up to a certain point I can understand - it's not as much fun when you can't clearly make out the vocals or main instruments in a song - but beyond that, I'm not sure what the deal is. Apparently, the only reason not to have your entire collection in lossless is if you run ( Read more... )

Well, this mildly sucks. It doesn't look like I'll be able to catch any of Children of Earth as it airs. We've apparently gone and got a new TV, and Matt is so happy with it that he won't let it out of his sight. Matt is two years old. He goes to bed much later than he should do, because if you try to drag him upstairs he starts screaming like a ( Read more... )
