I get a little lost, as if March decided to vacation in my holiday, as if the snow hasn't really found my address yet. I love rain, but I saw "A Christmas Carol" staged yesterday (wonderful adaptation of one of my favorite stories, I applaud the actors and the theatre) and I went to a concert of "Winter, Fire and Snow" by an early music (read: ( Read more... )

Than winter/spring terms, that is. And I don't really know why. I just always feel like they're more stressful, more jam-packed, more filled with "holy crap I have ___ assignment due TOMORROW and I totally haven't started it" moments ( Read more... )

Never, ever thought that such a thing would govern my time.
In a way, it doesn't; Easter has come and gone, ending the necessities of Lent.
