yuuagoRoman-era cemetery discovered in Syria
Well. This morning was complete and utter fail. However, I'd rather not get into that. Needless to say, I keep slipping no matter what I do, argh. I'm going to keep trying, though. Winners never quit, quitters never win, and I really don't want to have to take yet another semester of school. It'd mean angry parents and paying more money and, well. No more summer trip for me. That's what it'd mean.
Man. Been thinking on this all day, but -- well. Gods, am I ever glad to know Minako. She's the one who's there when it's 3 AM and I'm ready to break down and cry my eyes out from stress, hah. Sure, this is mostly because of time zones, but that's not the point. Well, there we are.
Anyway. This weekend will be working on Medieval essay, and also more work on CanLit. Sigh. Sigh. And I should probably see about getting more articles on La Grande Illusion too - come to think of it, I should watch that again, with the commentary, just so I know more. It's a good thing that this is a movie I could watch many many times and still love. I'm considering buying it, actually, when I have more money. Unfortunately it's hideously expensive compared to most films on dvd, argh.
Well. Soon it'll all be over. But it really doesn't help that my mum keeps reminding me I have "x amount of weeks" or "y amount of days" before I go on vacation. THAT FREAKS ME THE FUCK OUT. IT'S COMING UP TOO FAST. Ughhhh I hate thinking about it. STRESS STRESS STRESS. But it's all cool. When I do go on vacation, I'm going to sleep a TON, and I'm going to do some reading for pleasure, and I'm going to write a lot of fanfic and bake a lot of cookies and watch a lot of movies, fuck yeah. Though, for part of it we're going to go down to Edmonton (er, actually Adrossan) to visit Uncle Jamie & Co. Apparently Uncle Rob and his family will be coming up from Chestermere to visit too. Everyone'll be together again, like it used to be. ... I just hope that the kids will behave. And that the relatives won't wake me up at midnight again to have a chit-chat and give me booze. Actually, scratch that - it'd mean I get booze. Mmmm Baileys 'n ice. That's a treat I don't have often.
In other news, I've been slowly making my way through the Christmas card list. Unfortunately things are getting sent out later than I planned, but nothing can be done about that. The first group will be sent out tomorrow; so, that's anyone from Australia, Southeast Asia and Poland. Probably going to tackle the Nordic countries next because there's so many of you. Needless to say, by the time I'm done with all these cards my desk area is going to be covered in glitter, damn. Not that I mind all that much, though. In small doses, it makes me pretty happy!
