Four months, 53 pages, and 14.895 words later, I've finished my seminar thesis. I handed it yesterday and the only thing left to do now is wait. Let's hope I did good.

Do you know what is more awesome than watching this video? Getting to play on the piano stairs. They put some in the Plaza de Armas station here in Santiago. I skipped down them yesterday and it was awesome. It made my day ( Read more... )

This Monday, I have to hand in the rough draft for my thesis proposal. Our guide teacher explained how this had to be done to us and all was fine and dandy until I sat down to write. I forgot what on earth I had to do for the theoretical framework and the methodology parts. I cannot ask my guide teacher about it because she's in a seminar in God ( Read more... )

There are times in which I regret deeply choosing to major in English Literature. Mainly because of times like now in which I can barely keep my eyes open and my head upright. Then, there are those times in which I'm in the middle of studying or researching for a project and I come across essays with names like Intuitive versus Rational Judgment ( Read more... )

Every time I tried to make sense of this essay my brain recoiled in horror and refused to cooperate. I think it's the first time that my mind has been boggled by complicated ( Read more... )

Had I known about this before I sat my exams and I'd done way better than I did. Funny how you find things that may have been useful once they've become useless.

So, I have this class called Phonetics and Phonology, right? Well, I have to do some transcriptions for tomorrow. This would be normal and I would do it without any problem if it weren't for one teeny tiny detail... The text I have to transcribe is in a cassette and none of the cassette players I've gotten my hand on seem to be working. I even got ( Read more... )

Title: A Red Ladybug for Baby Tim.
Prompt: Child POV.
Rating/Word count: G / 547.
A/N: Once again, something from my Creative Writing class. The character gets a little annoying in my opinion but some of my friends thought her to be adorable. Mistakes in the verbs were made on purpose.
