I have just updated my book blog, for the first time since November! (And the only November post was an old essay I wrote a couple of years ago, but the professor never asked me to hand it in; he never even asked me if I had written it at all, he was so weird; he gave me the highest mark without even asking me if I had read all the literature. I ( Read more... )

Things happen all the time in the world; many people are suffering for so many reasons, be it war or things that nature does… At the moment, we all know that huge parts of Australia are under water. waltzmatildah is organizing an auction and I signed up for it ( Read more... )

I never completed the meme where I was supposed to talk about things "in great detail"... I did day 19, and then I was bored! I did, however, try to complete it all in one post with less details about every topic, it's just that I never posted it and now I've lost it somewhere among my documents. So, okay ( Read more... )

The topic of today is: my day, in great detail.

You know how sometimes people on your friends list post about stuff going on in their life, and all of a sudden you think "Wait a minute? Since when were they working THERE? Since when were they dating HIM/HER? Since when???" And then you wonder how you could have missed all that seemingly pretty standard information, but somehow you feel too ( Read more... )

Ever since I joined LJ and the forerunner to mrs_robinsons, I read about The Devil Wears Prada. I watched it on TV tonight, with my mom.

It was interesting, actually. (And Meryl Streep is a great, fascinating actress.) Yes, I guess I was biased... But. When I had watched it for a while, I began to see that I wasn't reacting the way that it felt like I "should" ( Read more... )

I have been working with the French assignment for this week: to write a text about "mon domicile" in 100 to 300 words. I've written the thing... now I've got to cut it by half. (Or a little less. 400 words is not too much, is it?) I'm seriously frustrated. I understand that it is painful for some of my classmates to write even 100 words in French ( Read more... )

OK. Because of what I wrote here in my journal the other night, I started thinking more about it, and then I... wrote a little something, which I then posted to  a community. Because I didn't get any of the expected comments such as: "that really sucked, you know!!" but:  "Awesome story!", I decided that OK, I'm going to try this... Because people ( Read more... )

So I have made myself a new journal. I am not sure what to write here...
   I just saw a community here for 8 femmes. It's one of the few films of Fanny Ardant that has found it's way to Sweden - that is very strange, because she's such a great French actress, but nobody knows about her here, as it seems!
   In that community I read a piece of fan ( Read more... )
