I'm going to the Opera with my dad tomorrow! Should be interesting.

I made a rather dramatic purchasing decision - for me! - oh...two weekends ago (28/29 May) I think it was. The purchase was a new pair of sandals - but without a strap at the back and with heels a bit more than three inches (3 inches!) high. :D ( Read more... )

I think it'd be fair to say I had an eventful April ( Read more... )

March was an interesting month.

For starters, I joined my university's new choir/vocal ensemble after meeting up with a friend of mine, Ao, who is also in it. It'd been a while since I last saw her - and now I can meet her every week and get the organized-musical-activity fix that I'd been missing for so long after being out of a school band and/ ( Read more... )

After my classes finished today, I spent some part of the afternoon with a friend I'm calling 'My'. We went to Starbucks, where we sat around catching up on stuff (and only I had a coffee - mocha frappuccino mmmmmm....it's been a while). We have a usual end-of-semester coffee date, and since we didn't have one last semester as far as I remember, ( Read more... )

Ts I saw your postcard in my uni mailbox on Friday morning! Its unexpectedness made my morning (and kept me happy throughout the day whenever I looked at it) - thank you so much! :D I am rather impressed by the size and angle of your writing :P ( Read more... )

I got all my midterms back! They were good - I did better on two of my communications courses than I thought I had done - and now it's the time of year that I fondly refer to as "term-paper crunch-time". Stupid fall semester has gone by too fast. We have only about six weeks of class left! HOW DID THAT HAPPEN ( Read more... )

I'm getting in the swing of things at uni. This week should be my first complete run-through of all my classes (five) and jobs (two) without any expectations of adding or removing any. I've got to work out some fine details with the Housing office about the number of hours I'll be working for them, however. I can't do more than ten hours per week ( Read more... )

I did some work this evening, on something that's due tomorrow, after not doing any for a few days. Inspiration does only seem to come when you've started something, even if you're unsure of where it'll go, and then it hits you like a ten-ton truck. *sigh ( Read more... )

I spent the afternoon with my (female) friend Hr today. One of the things we did was watch a spy movie - well, more of a thriller really - called "Espion(s)". It was mostly in French, although since a great deal of the action took place in London there were some English bits. It was the first time I'd ever been to a movie without knowing a single ( Read more... )

This is in response to a Writer's Block question that asked "What is the best April Fools' Day joke you've ever fallen victim to ( Read more... )
