So here I sit (well, lie) in my room in Glendora. Weird stuff, man. Yesterday I was in London in my cousin's flat looking at Hampstead Heath out the window. Now I'm here staring at the walls. No, not really ( Read more... )

Leaving for Ireland tomorrow morning. Flight leaves at 10am, so we have to be up at 630. Ew. Oh well, not too bad when you know it's for a good cause. Hee. Shawna is terrified that we'll die in a plane crash because she's not heard of the airline, but they're the only ones it seems that fly out of Cardiff to Dublin anymore. They're Aer Arran or ( Read more... )

Quick update now from Penarth (ten minutes outside of Cardiff). At my cousins' house at the moment. Dinner is soon, so I've got to go, but I thought I'd stop in and tell everyone that everything is fine. Aside from the whole terrorism thing, which is really big here. The police are all carrying giant freaking AK 47s or some such. Which is scary. We ( Read more... )

I've already checked us in online. We have awesome seats, 'cause I'm picky and managed to check in early enough to nab the last row which is only two seats. No stranger next to us! Yay! (It's a 747, so the configuration of seats is 3|4|3, I believe. Except the last three rows are 2|4|2. Woot ( Read more... )

So, I'm back in the land of the living, sort of. I finished my last final at about 530, had dinner, did some cleaning up in my room and now I'm here. Totally hasn't sunk in that tomorrow and Saturday are my graduations. WTF? I have a BA (as long as I didn't fail anything, and that is highly unlikely) in History now. Wow ( Read more... )

So this is me. Still conscious. As predicted, I'm not really sleepy tired now that I have the chance for a nap before my other class. Blah. But the paper is handed in and I've not got too many stressful things for a while. So yay ( Read more... )

4:19am and I just finished my essay that's due in class at 10am today. I rock. The topic? Integration and peripheralization, defensive modernism and imperialism's effect on economic and political policy, society and intellectual movements in 17th, 18th and 19th century Middle East. YEAH. Dear God that was brain exploding. There was a LOT to talk ( Read more... )

Okay, so first of all... we bought our tickets to London today! WOOT! We found (very sadly) the best deal that was available at the time we wanted to go. If it weren't for the almost $300 taxes the add on PER TICKET, it would have been only $650 a ticket for June/July, which isn't bad. Three years ago at the same time we paid $450 on Air Canada ( Read more... )

Firstly, I've two pictures for you. One that is possibly disturbing if fashion victims terrify you, and the other is a SQUIRREL! Eee! ( Click here for both! )

So, I step off the elevator to my floor last night, and what am I greeted with on the wall directly in front of me? ( This mysterious concoction of a poster. 3'x5'. )
