So after a slow-moving day of school-proofing my room, my friend came over to spray-paint me a headboard. Taking a much needed coffee/dinner break to get away from both the paint fumes and the scraggly lecherous guy in my living room we went up to St. V for a shot of ODN lovin'.

so... as of yesterday - i'm a master's student. my supervisor is well, thankfully, although he was very near where the tsunami hit and was on the beach two days before it happened. it's wierd being back after a year to the same faculty and the same people that i spent four years with, only this time in a different capacity. someone remarked that ( Read more... )

yay! tomorrow's ANOTHER ped day. this school hasn't had a single full week since september. which cuts in to the cashflow but leaves me lots of time to do... absolutely nuthin'. i need more deadlines - my life is in tatters without them.
