Holy shit it has been ages since this journal has seen an update, hasn't it; a proper update, not a quick celebration of Christmas or the New Year. I blame London, wholeheartedly, and quite a lot of Shakespeare, and - just lately, anyway - Les Misérables, as seeing the movie (good acting, mediocre direction, singing ... more or less inconsistent) ( Read more... )

les misérables, fandom is a safe corner of my brain, shakespeare, the university chronicles, this fucking city, writing, sherlock, this city you guys

as others have said, I am so happy for you! :D It's great that you found such a great program and that you're getting so much out of it. you know I've made no secret of my jealousy and I wish I could have gone to visit you even for just a couple of days, but I am busy busy busy and eternally exhausted (and also poor)

so, yes. busy. too busy. I log onto tumblr for an hour or so a day if I'm lucky and reblog allllll The Lizzie Bennet Diaries (which is entirely your fault), have fallen back into the abyss of Korean dramas (ridiculously predictable but oh so addicting), and oh hey did I mention I got night shifts for clinical so nowadays I have nooo idea what time it is and when I should be sleeping and when I should be awake? Someday we'll look back on this and laugh. Maybe.

I, um, graduate in May! Which is equal parts exciting and terrifying. Though maybe more terrifying.

You're writing the Les Mis modern!AU though!!! I can't wait to read it in all its brilliance ♥

NADINE NADINE HI I LOVE YOU baby you need to answer emails ♥

I'm sorry to hear you're so busy, darling. Is there no free time coming up? A vacation? Night shifts sound exhausting at best, so be ... sure you sleep enough, at least? Hold on tight. (I refuse to apologize for hooking you onto the LBD, by the way. Je refuse.)

Hurray for graduating, though! That's amazing.

fkslkdsf it's a ridiculous ~sorbonne uprising~ concept because i'm sadly predictable that way, but i'm having a ridiculous amount of fun with it? and dude you knew i was never going to be able to resist this, didn't you

HIIIIIII. (ah have you sent emails recently? I didn't receive any of them!)

We actually do have spring break next week, but... I'm still working those night shifts to get caught up. (We have to do a certain amount of shifts by graduation, and guess who started her shifts late!) I do love it, though -- my nurse mentor is absolutely lovely, and I'm at the unit I wanted, so it's all good.

(LBD though, did you see the one from today? Or yesterday? what day is it i have no idea anymore BIIIING. AND JANE. It's definitely wrapping up, though, which makes me sad.)

Yeees, graduation! Ordered my invitations and the cap + gown. It's becoming a lot more real, I'll tell you that.

hahaha that was the hope, yes, that you wouldn't be able to resist :DD

Er, yes I did. It was mostly just ranting about Les Mis, though, nothing important.

Aw, bb, that sucks. I'm glad you're doing something you love with people you like, but I hope that crazy schedule will calm down soon. Hopefully before graduation? I'll be sure to send you glittery congratulations on the due date. :DD

(I did! I loved it so much, too - Jane taking stock of what matters to her, refusing to let her love life take prevalence over her career of choice, refusing to let Bing just invite himself over with her; there's such a strong message in this relationship and I love it to death. But it's definitely wrapping up. The last video will be the hundredth, so there's barely even a month left.)

you are a terrible person, please remind me why i like you

oh no, I wonder why I didn't get it... ):

I... am actually quite stressed at the moment. I usually don't get stressed out -- I'm always pretty mellow, but, ugh, I'm just starting some job applications and I'm getting worried about interviews because hello socially awkward me and what if I don't get a job I need to get a job I just

/rolls around uselessly

(I did love that about them! I was never terribly invested in Jane and Bingley in the original novel, but they were so adorable in this adaptation, and they had a good solid arc which wrapped up in a satisfying way. And ohh, what am I to do with my Mondays and Thursdays now? DDD: )

because! i make your life more interesting :DD

It was with my secondary email address, so maybe it went into your spam inbox?

Aww, babe, don't. You're passionate about your work and you're getting good marks, IIRC; you'll find somewhere where you can do the best you can. The field you work in is an important one that's always in demand; interviews suck, but we get through them. You're qualified, you're wonderful, and they'll see that if there's any kind of brain in their skulls.

you do. and you know exactly how to take advantage of it. >:(
