Other than the fact that at one point Windows Media Player started to talk to me, I think I'm dealing pretty well with exam stress, all things told. (It said 'hello' in a clearly feminine voice in the middle of about four different songs at different times last night, at which point I realised that getting on for 30 hours without natural sleep was taking its toll or Joan was TRYING TO COMMUNICATE.)

(The Marian Reformation and OH GOD FOUR MORE TOPICS AND THATS JUST MY FILE THE EXAM IS TOMORROW OH GOD.)

Of course, it would help if I wasn't being distracted by videos of David Tennant miming and dancing. That actually happened. No, really. I laughed so hard I actually cried.

If only my dream about time travel and Karl and Susan from Neighbours being serial killers was real too. That was kinda fun, because I was some sort of time detective (I had a TARDIS, but no Doctor. Sad) chasing them through time for their evil killings. Which seemed to take place in suburban England rather than Erinsborough, odd.

Anyway.

I will see you on the other side of tomorrow. I am taking Sunday OFF. I am going to MAKE LASAGNE and CLEAN and do SHOPPING for FRESH FOOD and maybe even do my LAUNDRY. I am looking forward to this so I have evidently gone bananas.

Okay, Colleen, she's just five years long and then you get Elizabeth! Yay! We like Elizabeth!

(Also: being in university on Easter Monday. Not on. Actually in actual lessons. Erm, Catholic. Easter with family, anyone? Help.)

And then watch Celebrity Big Brother. I'm going to hell. I know this.

Good luck for the exam. If Andrew Pettegree's teaching that course this year, quote his stuff and you'll do fine...he has a huge ego and he loves that. His C16th century Europe book is actually pretty good though.

Oh, shit.

I have to quote Pettegree? He's done about six lectures which I faithfuly attended because I Shamelessly Fangirl but I was planning on just skimming the book. Oh, buggar buggar buggar.

Too late now, I suppose. I have no idea how to do history at this standard. Sure I will find out when I get my results back. And cry.

Don't worry about actual quotes as such! I didn't mean to scare you! It's just that Pettegree has such a big ego and he's always pushing his own books on to students. Hehehe I know what you mean about the fangirl business though - I was like that with a couple of historians...still am, really.

Actually one of the weirdest moments I've had was sitting in a hotel room watching Pop Idol with Pettegree (who was surprisingly hooked on it)...St Andrews is a strange place indeed.

The boy with the thorn in his side
Behind the hatred there lies
A murderous desire for love
How can they look into my eyes
And still they don’t believe me ?
How can they hear me say those words
Still they don’t believe me ?
And if they don’t believe me now
Will they ever believe me ?
And if they don’t believe me now
Will they ever, they ever, believe me ?
Oh no ...
Oh ...

And yes, I just did the dance. And now go back and study. If you are good, I will let you watch the David Tennant dancing to, um, These Boots Are Made For Walking (no, really).

I check my LJ for a minute between Spain and Richeleiu and I'm told there's more?

And I'm sitting up here?

*wishes to cry*

Mwahahahahaha. It's at least incentive to get all your studying done, yes? What time are you stopping studying tonight, anyway?

And can I just say how SAD I feel, because we live in the same house and we are communicating through the medium of livejournal. We are such geeks. :)
