Oh I need to update already. Stuff happened.

I gave in my end of term portfolios. I spent so long working on those when the deadline came up, and I'm not sure they were exceptional or anything, but I'm not sure I could have made myself go any harder on them.

Then on the 17th I had an extra session for a group novel discussion. I think I stayed up ( Read more... )

Just real quick to say that

I'VE FINISHED THIS TERM'S SUBMISSIONS.

And I am so happy.

I just sat here for the last 3 days agonising over my work, mostly because poetry is hard and essays are long and this goddamn cold - I got ill for the first time in about two years - has made it insanely difficult to focus on anything whatsoever.

But I've just ( Read more... )

TODAY, WHAT ARE YOU DOING. GET DOWN FROM THERE.

I don't even know, I meant to wake up at 11, but I turned off my alarm and slept some more. Until 12:30. Why am I so bad at this. And then I had to get straight up and get to university for another crappy, boring, useless class, with no time to stop for lunch.

Now I'm sure people with more interesting ( Read more... )

Uhhh basically this week kicked my ass, there were no trains on Monday so I had to fill out an absence form goddammit, but on the other hand doing my reading at the station was more productive than poetry.
Thursday's class is the most useless thing about ever, the tutor just drones on and on and we've all resorted to learning to use the Macs so we ( Read more... )

Thursday:
>walk into class about the internet, expecting to know how to do everything
>entire room full of Macs
>FFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU

Friday:
WE'RE GONNA WRITE NOVELS. We started by analysing each others' names. It was pretty interesting. Names have tons of history and ancestry and stereoytpes. We're doing a project but it ain't that bad. I'm starting to ( Read more... )

Monday's class was.... long. Three hours of poetry, seriously. It was interesting to start out, when we talked about the nature of post-modernism, then it became a couple of hours of naming famous poets who were related to such-and-such movement and I'd had like 4 hours sleep so I wasn't that into it.

Then we had a meeting just to say HI YOU'RE IN  ( Read more... )

Last terms grades have been released. Only provisionally, but I think it's time to party anyway because I got 68% on Poetry (which I always find awkward), 72% on Fiction 2 (which was a short story class and the short story I wrote was loosely based on Left4Dead 2, and it was 6,000 words, and I did it in like 5 days seriously), and 81% on Process of ( Read more... )

My second year of uni is finished. :D Yesterday, in fact. Even though my deadline is tomorrow, ha.

Today I caught a Corsola, I made some cookies with my sister, I played Bioshock 2, and for some reason I'm getting into Neopets again.

I don't have to worry about a thing while my classmates are scrambling to submit their stuff tomorrow.

Some notes ( Read more... )

After working for the last four days on it, my short story for my portfolio is now the required 6,000 words long. I am so relieved. For a while I honestly did not think I'd be able to handle it. I still have to edit it and write my reflection essay, but I know I can do that before the due date (the 5th). I might actually go and hand it in early if ( Read more... )

_allismine_: dude I shat bricks doing the stupid survival guide bullshit where you had to plant the sonic device in the nest of those water-dweller things

_allismine_: because I love doing additional options and couldn't kill any of them

Pyreo: Yeah I remember that!

_allismine_: SO I'M LIKE

_allismine_: RUN RUN RUN FUCKING RUNNNNNNNNNNN
