I am a lot better now. I've had about a week to come to terms with the idea of The Chris Situation and really, there isn't too much to be sad about. Of course, I say that having not seen him in three days, I may feel quite differently when I see him in person. On Monday I lurked on campus after my 5pm Epic lecture with Sophie, Gemma and Kim, then ( Read more... )

I have finished my essays! I have no idea how I managed the Pride and Prejudice essay, as I've only read a third of it! I was a bit mean to poor old Austen, but really - it's not got a lot of depth, that text, has it? Watch as I now get a mark in the low 50's... :D ( Read more... )

I had an essay done by about 1:30pm today. Weeeird. I don't know if I was meant to add secondary sources, but as I had to leave out several points due to a word limit, I wasn't about to limit myself any further with random opinions of critics! I should be reading James Hogg right now but...I'm sleepy, and the internet is more fun. I'll probably ( Read more... )

My seminar tutors are ridiculously nice to me, especially considering I don't contribute to their classes. (I've rarely had time to read the book, it'd be a bit difficult...) My 19th century lit tutor has given me til Monday for my non-assessed essay, as has the 18th century guy. I feel quite guilty for being such a rubbish English student, as they ( Read more... )

Rehearsals were so much fun tonight! I'd been moping and crying all day, so it really brought me out of my random weepiness. We're attempting to stage the plays currently, it's...interesting! In Family Farce, me and Chris (who plays my boyfriend) have to constantly go in and out upstage centre, and in a small room that's a bit hard to replicate! ( Read more... )

I really like the hamster play ("Invasion of the Horrible Things"). <-- That fullstop shouldn't be there, but it looks wrong inside the bracket agh! I didn't like walking onto campus for 8pm in the dark, but still! It turns out Dai emailed me the wrong name, and I'm actually Lindsay, who's a snarky bitch, and I like her. She's also a lesbian. :) ( Read more... )

( IAMX writeup! Lots of pictures, be aware! )

Me and Verity made it in for our Languages Of Literature lecture, I think it's safe to say that we both win for today. :D Admittedly we skipped Greek Myths but BLAH. Firstly, it's with Ittai Gradel who is Ramble McRamblesome, and secondly it's all about Rome, and I can't be dealing with that. It barely relates to Greek Myths as far as I'm concerned ( Read more... )

I'm (I think) 834 words into my What Kind of Text essay that's due on Tuesday. It has to be between 1000-1500 words. SO tempting just to stop at 1000. But unfortunately, I chose the question where I have to analyse the use of mock-heroic in Alexander Pope's Rape of the Lock OR Rape of the Lock and Chaucer's The Nun's Priest's Tale. And I chose the ( Read more... )

I really should be asleep right now. Unfortunately, I've fucked up my sleeping patterns due to waking up at 5pm this evening. I'm always either tired or hungry recently, it's VERY annoying. Though the hungry can be explained away by me regularly skipping meals ( Read more... )
