Home~
I have not yet recovered, perhaps, from The Housemate Debacle, but I'm home so that's a load off my mind :) I have done sod-all, really. Laundry is a no-no at the moment because Mum's doing her loads, so I've made ready meals, emptied and loaded the dishwasher, fed the cat, made myself get dressed...doing nothing is fun.
I'm halfway through a fic, and I'm trying out a slightly abstract style. I'm not sure if I like it, but I'm going to finish it in that voice. It's present tense third person, which a lot of ficcers use, and I normally use past tense first person. Still, when Ekwy receives it, she can give me a critique.
I get my results in...five days. OH MY GOD. I'm shitting bricks a bit, because my second exam didn't go nearly as well as I hoped and I fucked up the third question on the third exam due to what I can only refer to as an 'annoyed bladder'. You are allowed to go to the loo during exams, but an invigilator goes into the bathroom with you to check you're not meeting up with someone and checking notes. My bladder is shy. So that wasn't fun.
Oh! But do you know what was fun? On Thursday, the day before my last entry, I went to Drayton Manor theme park with some of my friends from sci-fi :D I will give you the edited highlights:
*Going to a haunted house and not getting scared as the room 'spun' around us or when the portrait on the wall started speaking to us in an affected accent. Do you what the bit was that scared me? When the restraints came up at the end of the ride.
*Scott was teasing me because I wouldn't go on the giant rollercoasters, so I got...well, I have an 'I'LL SHOW YOU' mentality, and insisted we went on the one we were next to.
It had two loop-the-loops and a corkscrew, and you rode it standing up.
My brain still hurts from being rattled around in my skull.
*Teacups are fun! Until you dance a bit too wildly and send it spinning much faster than you ever hoped you'd be going. Quoth Alana: "Did you really scream more on the teacups than on the rollercoaster?"
And as for now, back to the fic, Tumblr and Twitter.
