...And all through the house not a creature was stirring, except an overly excited twenty-something.
MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!
I know it's early, but I won't have time tomorrow. So uh, have yourself a merry little Christmas...

Is this a thing?
You know what the world needs? A Hogwarts Hotel. Seriously, how awesome would it be? Everyone would eat at house tables, based on where they're staying (obviously). You could make the rooms in Slytherin slightly cheaper on account of how they're in the dungeon with no natural lighting, and the rooms in Gryffindor slightly more expensive because, ( Read more... ) -

And so the glaringly obvious downside to the Irlen method becomes even more glaringly obvious. My new tints are wrong. I could actually cry. I mean, they're not completely wrong, but they are wrong. It seems the eyestrain I've been experiencing and the green tint the world has adopted is not, as I previously thought, me getting used to the new ( Read more... ) -
YAY :D
MYGLASSESARRIVEDMYGLASSESARRIVEDMYGLASSESARRIVED!!! YAY :D
ahem.
Excuse my excitement it's just that I've been waiting foreverI know, this is not generally something to get excited about, but well, it is. Ok, I'll explain. I have Irlen Syndrome. It's a visual perceptual disorder, which sounds scientific and sort of impressive but what it actually ( Read more... ) -
Unoriginal post is unoriginal
I'd have posted sooner, but I've been busy. Y'know, saving the world and all that... Ok. No. Anyway, lame excuses aside, it's been three months since I posted last, so here, have an entirely unoriginal post. Really, I insist. Consider it a gift. You know, like that really, really hideous jumper you got from your Great Aunt. The one who hasn't seen ( Read more... ) -
(Untitled)
Ok, so I've spent quite a bit of this summer listening to Harry Potter audio books because, like Pringles, once I start I just can't stop. The result of which is that I now have a ridiculous new crush on Bellatrix Lestrange(/ Helena Bonham Carter). I think it's the combination of teh crazy and teh pretty. Everyone loves a sadistic killer, right? -
career prospects?
Job hunting (however half-heartedly I may be doing it) is no fun. It is also slightly depressing. And my back up plan of homelessness, whilst definitely achievable, is starting to look less appealing. In the event that I am unable to pursue a career in psychology (due to the extreme lack of clinically relevant graduate jobs that do not require ( Read more... ) -
Sometimes my brain is amazing. Sometimes it is not.
It's possible I've been listening to far too much Harry Potter recently. Today I overheard a child in my Mum's class say something about someone not having a permission slip. My first thought was 'oh, they're obviously talking about Hogsmeade'. It took me a good minute to remember that Hogsmeade doesn't exist.
Clearly I am just too cool. -
A student no more
Today has been an ... interesting day. Why? because I graduated. Which is a surreal sort of experience. All the while you're at uni everyone talks about graduation (friends, not academic staff) but I never really felt it would happen. Which is ridiculous because barring serious academic failure it was pretty much inevitable. I don't know, on the ( Read more... ) -
Holiday. YAY!
I'm currently attempting to pack for my holiday tomorrow (my holiday to DISNEY in FLORIDA for TWO WEEKS, no less - Can you say AWESOME!?) however, my amazing system of organisation (this mainly involves making many, many lists) is currently failing me, mostly because I keep making more lists instead of packing (it's addictive I tell you!). But this ( Read more... )
