Underwear-on-head Status: HIGH.

Exam went terribly. Like, appallingly so to the extent where I was beating my head against the table. In an attempt possibly not to make my cave the walls in (I was beating my head against Katie's doorframe going 'angst. angst. angst.' when I got in) I had chips for tea. That is never a bad thing.

Tomorrow I have an exam. I am hopelessly unprepared, but on the 'bright' side, it's Divinity so I don't actually care.

However, proving that Things Are Getting To Me, I am listening to ClassicFM (always a bad sign) and on an advert, they just played the Babe music. I proceeded to get a bit snuffly. Babe is one of my favourite films (shut up) because the book is amazing (saying that, the last time I read a Dick King-Smith book, I was nine) and the film is nothing like the book but is also amazing because it's just really good. Yes, it is about a big who herds sheep. I am guaranteed to sob brokenly every time, though, because the music and the little song that goes it it is really beautiful and oh my god I'm rationalising the fact I'm actually a bit sniffly over some film music that is still a film about a pig.

It does have Hugo Weaving in it, though. And the guy who plays the police chief in Spiderman 3 plays Farmer Hoggett.

Oh my god, Colleen, stop rationalising the talking pig and go and revise something already.

(And if anyone has hold of the soundtrack, er, please to be letting me know?)

If you mean the music I think you mean.... *sniffle* *wail* *sniffle* I heart that scene far too much.

There are about two or three bits I am guaranteed to howl at, and it's the bit at the end very end with the music and it's such a good ending because despite the fact it is still about a pig herding sheep it is absolutely beautiful and oh dear. The specific, though, is I think the bit you're talking about, when Babe is al injured and the farmer sings to him.

*WAILS AND CLINGS* There needs to be some kind of support film. I don't rememebr liking this film when I was ten!

Trust me, I know exactly what you mean vis-à-vis the knickers on head situation. Mostly because that is my life atm as well.

My housemate has advised wearing two pairs of underwear to every exam, so that if I can't control the urge to put it on my head and run around shouting 'WIBBLE' then at least I will be decent.

You know, she may be on to something.

She's deffinitely onto something!

I opted for the ones with multicoloured shooting stars today, on the basis that they looked vaguely superhero-ish and maybe they would give me special powers?

And y'know, I think maybe they did a bit, coz I spoke pretty damn good Italian for the whole 10 minutes! Although it may be more down to the fact that after yesterday's fiasco I just didn't care.

I'm really not sure that that counts for much.
