I believe only one word can sum up my thoughts of Winstanley's half term:

Bollocks!

It's the week BEFORE SG6. This means I'll either have to scive two days OR leave early. Either way, I'm unhappy.

Yeah, I got my "Winstanley's Really Good, Please Choose Us, We Cater To Everyone But Sod Off If You Don't Meet Our Requirements" pack, which is a college I do really want to go to. I just sound bitter becuase all the dancers in it look Really Good, which just makes me have wincing flashbacks to all the times I've screwed up, and the whole half term thing. HOWEVER, English students get to go to London and Stratford and Media Studies toddle off to New York (I'll never be able to afford it, but droooool), Bradford, Manchester and London.

All of which I haven't got a hope of being able to afford to go to them all, so maybe I will have to *gasp* get a job of some description. Unless they're quite cheap.

Anyway! I'm not doing anything again today, other than panicking about Winstanley and talking to loneraven about glitter and college. Harrumph. Going to Switzerland in a week! Yay! Happy Thoughts!

Pleh. I'm babbling. I'll go and ready some fic now. Funfunfun.

With all this talk of Pirates Of The Caribbean I started to get very enthusiastic about this film. It's a pledge of mine to see various actors from my fandoms be other people, and apart from Macgyver (hair! Hair!) it's fun. So, I go to see what time POTC is out, since I'm actually going to go and see it with Simon.

I'M NOT IN THE COUNTRY! I'm in stupid goddamn SWITZERLAND! Where I am NOT going to find an English cinema, won't be able to understand the subtitling/dubbing, and won't be able to persuade 7 other people to go ANYWAY.

Buggar.

I'm also in hungry mode again, but thats because of the weather. It's cold and it's rainy, so all I want to do is curl up and read with a cup of tea and a large pile of chocolate biscuits. Mmmmm.

Partially gacked from settiai

Really? I've NEVER found another Mary, middle name or no. And according to this site, Mary is also a boys name. I'm sure that HAS to be vaguely blasphemous. (Having just re-read Good Omens, I'm feeling Biblical.)

Cheetham is the #27871 most common last name.
0.0005% of last names in the US are Cheetham.
Around 1250 US last names are Cheetham!

Hmmm. Fun. Time Wastage!

I'm spamming more than usual today. Aren't you all going to miss while I'm in the land of the cuckoo clock and the fondue pot?

In other news, I have been taking a brain break from Dr Jackson's Diary before my brain overloads. Reading the slashy-rific (is that a word? It is now) Good Omens may not be the best of ideas, so I'm now going to spend a night on www.scribeoz.com - the webs only het archive for LOTR.

Ah, what my life has become.
