and again
it´s been almost a year since I posted in this. You know that leatherbound journal I was talking about then? I have actually used it quite a few times since then. I think I should start this back up again; it´s the one thing I do online that my parents are not also members of or know about (and not in a freaky controlling way, I just happen to ( Read more... ) -
wow
it has been a while. I dont really feel the need to keep a journal that much, and I think if I ever did, I would want to keep a good oldfahiones VIctorian-style one, big and leatherbound. I have one of those, but it is empty. I sometimes think I should keep it, just like Marianne in The Woman in White, so you can see what you were up to a year ago ( Read more... ) -

Once again I haven´t posted for ages... I am just no good at keeping up with this blog thing. First semester of third year is almost over and it hasn´t been anywhere near as much work as I was expecting it to be... especially Business is a bit of a joke, unfortunately. But I´ll stick to it until the end, then I´ve got it on paper that I can do ( Read more... ) -
i am going to die
Seriously... i just got an email from my Victorian Lit Seminar Tutor today ( okay, it was sent four days ago, but that doesnt make much of a difference) detailing what i ought to have read by the time seminars start, ie in 20 days. So I am in a slight bit of panic now to get as much read as i possibly can, but i am not getting the book i need to ( Read more... ) -
Mont Blanc
A friend and colleague of my mother´s was among those who died at Mont Blanc. My thoughts go out to his wife and two young sons. -

Currently I am working at the local hospital after a really busy summer filled with working in different places: Munich Airport, a Summercamp for kids and now the hospital. inbetween I had lots ( Read more... ) -
