hathycolIn response to last post, I can't help but wonder who posted them all. Still, I'll give out responses anyway. Amongst other things...

I can't say much more than that, other than a vague confession that I am a comment whore. Sorry, everyone. Good fun, though.
So, today has been one of those pleasently 'blah' days. I bought the new SFX (wheee! Dalek front cover!) and Oliver Cromwell is dead! Hurrah!
I fully appreciate that Oliver Cromwell has been dead for nigh on three hundred and fifty years (thank fucking god) but I get a pleasant sense of relief when someone dies in a history module. It means you can slam your pen down victoriously going "HA! YOU MAD PURITAN BASTARD!" My thoughts on Oliver Cromwell are all over the place. For the most part, I don't like him, although bless him for trying. There was a mad history plan to go and find his bones and jump on them, actually, but it turns out that no one is quite sure where he's buried and there's about three places he should be anyway, what with his posthumous trial for treason and getting his head chopped off and put on a spike. It's all rather confusing. Apparently London is strict on the laws about graffiti (around Westminister, anyway) so we were a bit buggared for graffiting that bloody statue.
Either way, though, I am so glad he's dead. I have now got Basic Notes on the timeline of Cromwell and what happend throughout the whole messy time in history. I now have a pile of books to read which reach up to my knee. Fortunately only a chapter in each one, but gosh, the exams are coming up rather soon, aren't they? *wibbles a little bit* I'm not nervous about my exams, per se, just... uneasy. A lot of me is thinking "YES! Only two weeks to go!" while the other part of me thinks "Eeek, revision is just not going well, is it?" I mean, I think it's not going well, but maybe it is. I am going to play games with the calender feature in a minute, to see if I was like this last year. Of course, last year was EVERY SINGLE EXAM in a big horrible three week period, so I probably did work more. Hmmm. I only have five exams, one of which is a resit. (Okay, seven if you include General Studies - one of which is a hideously embarrassing resit.) I'm somewhat in the middle when it comes to exam stress. I do feel, though, that I'm taking it all too lightly. I'm sleeping too much and doing too much arsing around in fandom.
Gah.
My posts just get longer and more rambly. Don't you all get bored sometimes? I know I do, hence the fact I'm writing this monster.
I have just spotted a name that I had distinctly unfuzzy feelings about in my First Ever Fandom in the Doctor Who fandom. Oh Dear. I can't say anymoe than hat, but... oh dear. I think maybe some of the older SG crew will know what I'm on about. That was a nasty jolt. Small world, isn't it?
Blah blah blah. I am so bored that I might be forced to revise some media. Either way, I should start revising for the Critical Research exam, which I failed fantastically last time around.
Tomorrow I am waking up at 6.50am to watch Doctor Who. Obsessed or dedicated? *puts on Geordie accent* YOU DECIDE. (Yes, yes, it's the Big Brother booting out tonight. I want Sam to go because she is just blah. Or Lesley because I swear to god, my dog is more intelligent. In fact, either of them to go would make me happy. In fact, get rid of the lot of them and start again.)

Moving on, I too am getting up some unearthly hour to watch Doctor Who before work. Roll on Androzani.

Date: 2005-06-10 05:40 pm (UTC)Noooo! I don't watch Big Brother! I've watched about two episodes this week with my mother so I'm ready for Bad Wolf this week. This research would have been much easier without having to twitch and go "ARGH! LESLEY, PUT YOUR BREASTS AWAY!" I only learnt her name because I was doing this so often that it became easier to learn her name than shout "YOU WITH NO EYEBROWS!"

Same as, it's rather an odd feeling. I'm so used to being Ze Headless Chicken that to be relatively calm is extremely strange.
