I've been a bit musically bored lately, so I went over to fanmix (members-only) and went a little crazy. Now I just need to load up the 'Pod so's I can actually listen to them. I think I'll get some listening done tomorrow while I clean the big kitchen (yeach). I also want to try knitting the next step in the elephant toy following detailed ( Read more... )

Packing for New York right now. We've got a hotel reserved until Monday, so we'll be there that long at least.

On a totally unrelated note, ( the heart is a bitchy thing that will cut you dead )

Briefly reporting to say that a) am still alive, b) am an ass for not having coffee with non of y'all locals, and c) will be in New flippin' York on Thursday until parents-know-when.

I've been reading loads and watching foreign films (Echte Kerle and Persepolis) among other things and just got back from a day at Niagara Falls ( Read more... )

Social life, I has it not. That's because I'm on the last week of my SBB course - thank all the gods everywhere - and we're working out butts off with the Project Management assignment (today was a 9:00-5:30 marathon) and also squeezing in some Law assignment. ( I know people! We hang out at school! ...I have no life. )

Work, work, work.Taking a mini-break from staring hopelessly at Technology Transfer Assignment after having fixed huge stupid mistakes due to huge stupid oversights of helpful equations ( Read more... )

Spent delightful day basically lying in bed watching Supernatural. It was marred only by my lack of food in the house (popcorn for lunch!) and my brilliant idea of leaving the house for coffee just when most shops are closing. Managed to score a cap' and lemon cake and a chapter of Threshold. Also sent up co-account with Brother for That Thingy ( Read more... )

Hey gnomes! Sorry for letting Twitter post for me so oft, but I'm being worked to the bone and thus have either a) no time or b) no energy to post. Also, I have a Links List as long as a gibbon's arm and then some, so that might take a while.

That said, I've been watching Supernatural 4x00. Apart from a mangled-handful of dubbed episodes from ( Read more... )

Wee! Socialing! Today my flatmates had diner together, and saved some hamburger paddies and banana bread for me, 'cause I couldn't make it home by 6 pm. But I did get to chat with them a while and listen to a hell of a lot of Dutch conversations. So squee all around ( Read more... )

My internship presentation (The African wild dog (Lycaon pictus) decline: The importance of pack size for its survival) is tomorrow at 11 am. I've been feeling a bit weird all day. This afternoon in particular, the most ridiculous things made me all miserable.

( Sickle gets introspective, talks about memory and loss, and shows off the crazy. )
