i. Only 9 days to my Royal Holloway interview. And I've booked train tickets for little me to go down there! Oooo navigating Kings Cross and the underground on my own. Schocking independance. Plus I get to meet and spend time with . Rad man.

ii. Re-reading list for interview:
Electra Euripides
Hecuba Euripides
i>The Republic Plato, but just the chapter on Women
Lysistrata Aristophanes
An Epic History of Greece and Rome Robin Lane Fox
The Death of Socrates Emily Wilson

With The Death of Socrates I'll just note down some of the main ideas in the book as it was only 2 or 3 months ago I read it. With An Epic History of Greece and Rome the part I'm unsure on is the transition from Republic to Empire, which I'm reading in Augustus by Holland I just bought, so I'll cover it there.

Actually, I may get all the re-reading covered I wanted too. Still feeling slightly worried about the interview though- I REALLY want to go there.

iii. Italy reunion partee tonight. Spent most of it speaking to Jono and Adam. Merry merry. Jono makes me larf, and I lost a lot of arm wrestles with Adam. Woe.

iv. New icons! Rad! Noel and The Mighty Boosh!

v. I really like watching University Challenge but it's yet to have on any Uni's I've applied too. This week it's University of Birmingham and Magdalene College Oxford.

EDIT- Warwick are on next week! I've got a place there! Woo! And apparently they won it last year! Cool!

vi. Love to all <3
