1) What author do you own the most books by?
One of three; Arthur Ransome, Brian Jacques, or C.S. Lewis.

2) What book do you own the most copies of?
I have two copies of the Chronicles of Narnia-- one cheap set of individual paperback volumes, and one huge hardcover, illustrated, gorgeous one. And I think I might have the same sort of thing going for ( Read more... )

Transcribed the idea for a melody* I had today. I dunno if much will come of it-- I've got some . . . . interesting time signatures. (Yes, they change. No, I have no idea how to make the separate stanzas flow with one rhythmn.) I do have a start on a descant and some chords, but they're much less developed, and knowing my luck I'll come back ( Read more... )

I was reading the Rabbit books when I had my first true revelation that I DID NOT WANT TO READ ANY MORE BOOKS ABOUT THE PAIN OF BEING A MAN. My attempts to add to my technically literary reading ended there. I suppose I should be grateful.

This sort of related and sort of not.

Some of you may know that I have hated almost every book we ( Read more... )

Still the school week from hell, only I'm not nauseous any more, I'm got strep throat. Thanks. Thanks a lot, world, I appreciate it. Really.

Anyway, I've got two World Lit papers (\0/) and am still about 1000 words off from finishing my extended essay(/0\).

Still haven't taken my math test, and have no idea what's going with that, which means I'll ( Read more... )

Screaming here, because a breakdown is hardly what I need right now!

Just found out that all three IB papers were due- on Friday.

I am so, so fucked. You do not even know, guys-- I have about 2000 words on my extended essay, and one world lit, but I haven't even started on the other, and I am screwed for ToK. V. V. screwed.

HALLLLLLLLLLLP, GOD. I  ( Read more... )

A variety of quotes which I feel really sum up my experiences today:

"I am totally going to wear a painted swimcap when we present."

"The sexbooks are a good bribe. . . . "

"Oh, hey, no, we can totally work this in with the vampires!"

". . . . Why are you flicking the lettuce?"

"Shit, where did the one go?!"

My exams are over!
I am so ridiculously happy, you do not even know.

Also, I've been doing a lot of walking lately, but this as a good thing, since I have mostly been doing it with my friends, which always makes it worthwhile*.

My watch is also missing, which is rather a large pain, but there's still hope it will turn up, so I'm trying to be ( Read more... )

One one hand I want to pretty much glee over kateifer 's video thing.

On the other, I hate my life. I won't bore anybody, including myself with the details, but. As a word of warning if you're ever thinking of going into IB?

Don't. Not unless you've got a much better work ethic than mine, anyway. (In case you were wondering, mine's roughly equivalent to a ( Read more... )

For the first time in three weeks, I no longer constantly feel like throwing up.
Um. That sounded a lot less creepy when I said it to myself.

However, I am no longer flunking out of IB, and there seems to be a very good chance I'm graduating this year, and I just got my hair cut and eyebrows waxed for the first time in forever, and I actually look ( Read more... )

. . 69, by the way, if you were wondering.
Oh dear God, I am so screwed if my mark doesn't improve a lot, like, yesterday. If that goes home on my midterms, I will be grounded until the heat death of the universe.

I also have a history test tomorrow which I should probably studying for right, y'know, now, and another 300 words to write in an essay ( Read more... )
