So, life got me off the hook for a while.
The general situation is this:
1. After a big show down, my grandparents left for home. Which is a good thing overall, even if it looks shitty at the moment. And before You go and flay me for being disrespectful towards my elders and family: my grandma has the tongue and disposition that would make Jesus try to throttle her, should she ever meet him.
2. I've finished my teaching apprenticeship. And since it's all behind me now, I must say it's actually a very easy and relaxing job, as long as the pupils one teaches want to learn. If not, it is most rewording to flay them alive with sarcasm. I've even managed to make two in the most disobedient class work! That's my greatest achievement.
3. My BA paper is finally moving forward. Slowly, a step at a time, but still forward is forward.
4. My plans for writing more of My Fallen Angel were, of course, brutally thwarted, but hey! It's Easter in two weeks.
5. My allergy still triumphs over me. Today, I had to miss classes because of it. The total ban on going into cellars, attics, and supermarkets (with their mould breeding grounds' also known as the air-conditioning) still stands. But that's just a minor itch in comparison to say... having to share room with my younger brother for two weeks.
All in all, I give my life at the moment 4 out of 10 possible points in general shittiness.
