some updates;
今日は本当に楽しいな〜。It has been a good day (in some ways). It has gone well as follows:
1. I dragged myself out of bed at 0835 to have catered breakfast in hall. I haven't been up this early since Des was over for Christmas and I had to wake up at 0745.
2. I trekked through rain and wind (and reports of gales) to get to the gym. SO PROUD OF MYSELF but I bet isidoree will eventually have a post about how he played Ultimate in 90km/h gales under rain and snow and put me to utter shame ;_;
3. I finally spoke to someone else at dinner. I've been a hermit for too fucking long.
4. And on that note, I finally struck up conversation with that guy I keep saying hi to but I never actually talk to? It turns out that he is Polish - and not German as I had assumed; I don't know why on earth I'd thought that but I thought I heard him speaking German on one occasion - and that he is indeed, as I was supposing, an MA student. Doing Global History! Whoa. I cannot imagine doing an MA in Global History.
5. On that note, I finally have some clue what to write for my Ancient History essay, and some idea how to put it all together.
But about the things that didn't go too well:
1. I didn't read as much material in preparation for my essay as I was intending to. I kept getting distracted *sigh* I need to pull everything together so I can start AND finish that essay.
And things I am looking forward to / getting rather anxious about:
1. Audition for Wild Swans is this Thursday. I genuinely have no idea what to expect. Which reminds me, I should bring my production timetable for Hecuba and everything. Meep.
Also, I do not understand why the new Livejournal coding keeps making my text cursor jump back to the last bit of text with special formatting. WHY, LIVEJOURNAL.
Alright. I should get to bed soon, if I expect to be able to drag myself out of bed again tomorrow morning.
