This last week has been amazing... yet at the same time, tormenting. TORMENTING. I've arrived at a decision but what are the consequences of this? As always, it's cherchez la femme. But this time, it's she who likes me, not the other way around. But you know, the more time I spend with her the more I realise that this could  be it, to parody the ( Read more... )

For those of you who I have not already e-mailed with evidence of my poetic theorising over the last week or so, I urge you to offer your opinions on the following pieces. I have felt a strange complusion to write as of late. Whether it's the overwhelming amount of work I have going or perhaps some ancient melancholy risen from its grave within my ( Read more... )

Hello, my dear friends. You join me for another thrilling LiveJournal entry on the 19th, the penultimate day which remains in my exhaustive summer.

I'll be fine as long as he doesn't ask anything obscure. I know a great deal about the Korean War, about the Cultural Revolution and about ( Read more... )

Just one more exam. And then finally, solace. That comforting thought of being able to do the other things in life, without the dark shadow of a textbook slowly creeping from your bag. It's like the infamous shower scene from Psycho, really. Uhnnn..de-dun...de dun....dun dun, for those who read music phonetically. There you are, playing a video ( Read more... )

I simply cannot wait until Friday, when finally I can put my exams behind me. Christ, I'm tired of studying. It's gonna take one tremendous effort to pull through these last few days. Two more exams, I tell myself. Then we can finally shut down for a while. See, I don't mind studying when I can go at my own pace, and when there isn't this looming ( Read more... )
