Well, it appears that City Temple Conference Centre, where they're having our exams (the first in three hours)? Is City Temple Church and Conference Centre. As churches go they're apparently very liberal, but I'm still really hoping I don't have anyone encouraging me to accept Jesus Christ as my personal Lord and Saviour whilst I'm trying to dredge ( Read more... )

I've picked up my exam schedule. They're June 2nd, 2:15-5:15, and June 4th, 10:00-1:00. I suppose I did need to do that eventually, much as it's been nice pretending Doomsday isn't creeping up on me. On the bright side, I'm apparently not the only one that's barely done any studying, so at least all the ickle freshers are in the same (vaguely ( Read more... )

• aside from the 1.5k essay due 07/03 and the 2.5k one due 12/03, I also have a French exam that Wednesday evening; I'm really not worried about the material, as it's reading comprehension, I'm more concerned about the state I'm likely to be in after binge-working.

Today's been a bit bizarre so far. I needed to haul arse to the British Library to have a good look at the three Psalters that Friday's essay is on. I'd informed sjakler_av_tro of this as he'd expressed a desire to do more Things Of The Cultural Variety, and somehow wound up dragging a posse of no less than five Slimelight goths (including one I'd never spoken ( Read more... )

Acquired a copy of Torchwood from misterfallen (and smoked outside the little red line on Canada Square! I'm such a rebel, me). Explained to him why the coffee I bought along with lunch came in a little paper shot glass: espresso is the caffeinated equivalent of rocket fuel! (And it was a double, no less ( Read more... )

• There's no hot water again, or at least there wasn't yesterday and today. The resulting maintenance of personal hygiene, inevitably involving an ice-cold shower, was one of the most hideously miserable experiences of my life. I am beginning to understand why wet cats look so irate.
• I somehow got added to the mailing list of the Institute of ( Read more... )

I need to manage more reading. Unfortunately, that is the last thing my mind wants to do right now, so these are concepts I'm needing to read twice to fully absorb, even after a nap. Gah - Tomorrow I must. Write. Preferably at least 1,000 words.

In my defense: "...the difficult problem of the relation of pictures to the systematic ideas of their ( Read more... )

They're putting my picture in the dictionary under "11th hour", but today's essay is 1,427 words' worth of fucking DONE XD
