Five second break from studying -- honestly I don't think I've ever studied so much for a stupid exam. Ridiculous. Looked in the mirror, saw a grey hair. A grey hair! This can't be happening. Upon further inspection, discovered it was actually just a Max (cat) hair (actually orange) and there is no cause for alarm. Would have forever blamed ( Read more... )

Cursed secondary sources. Looks like tomorrow I'll be journeying to Carleton as secondary sources are of secondary nature to me...but apparently not to everyone else. Why are they necessary? Can't I just write about my own opinion of the stupid novels, not what 50 billion other people think? Grrr. At least I found my U of O ID card the other ( Read more... )

I am utterly, completely drained.
I need to recharge.

Sleep, sleep is a necessity.

Sorry to anyone I've been less than fun around the past few days.

A night of randomness, chance encounters, and 99 pictures ( Read more... )

My attempts to work on my Chaucer essay have been punctuated with short bursts of reading The Edible Woman, which I'm finding quite enjoyable, but slightly disturbing.

My voice has decided to take a vacation.

Oh well, I hope it's enjoying the trip. It probably felt overworked and undervalued ( Read more... )

So I've been home for 15 mintues, there are four hang up messages on my phone from call centres, and they have called twice since I've been home. Usually Hooly and I answer and hang up right away, but the last time it happened I answered, waited the five seconds of silence and said ( Read more... )

Can I cry now?
Reading Week is over, and although my Toronto plans fell through -- twice -- I ended up having quite the lovely week. Whhhhhhy must it end?
Parties, trivia, ice slides, road trips, sleeeeep, and way too much delicious food. Not nearly enough schoolwork, but I will remedy that today.
