Newest. This'll be up on Etsy tomorrow. :)

Failed English Grammar 2, so I'm going to re-sit Friday next week. Didn't do well enough in the entrance exam for Information Studies (their minor student quota is 8 and there were maybe 15 people taking the exam - so this time it was not about me doing poorly, it was about other people doing better), so I'll have to try again next spring. I will be able to start Literature, though, because that's a free minor.

I have a Sociolinguistics exam tomorrow which I am probably going to fail. I'll take it again either during the summer or in the autumn.

Four papers, one of which has its deadline this Friday. The remaining three will have to be done by Friday next week, since I hope to go home after that exam.

Busy busy.

My eye itches. Goddamned pollen.

I think I'll do a bit of travelling the summer next year if I can save enough money. I haven't decided where, yet - but it will most likely mean that I'll get to meet one or more of my Elftown friends. :) You'll get to have a Lami in your neighbourhood!

Essay done, hooray! Probably crappy, but it's well over the minimum and passing is the most important part. If I get a 3, I'll be filled with glee.

They've posted a preliminary course schedule for next year and I'm going like OMNOMNOMNOM COURSES. I feel so geeky when that happens.

The time has come to turn my Literary Developments 1660-1900 class essay into a term paper. Basically I just need to fix some things and write at least 600 more words. Doesn't sound like the most daunting of tasks, but it will still take me most of the day.

I just had a thought. I'm going to start putting my essays up here. Not that I think many people (or anyone, really) will read them, but it might still be nice.

I now officially have an Etsy shop. :O It's still very much under construction, but it exists!

Two young men in suits accosted me on the street just now. The accent was kind of adorable, but I am still not a Mormon. I am a uni student who needs to read for her English Phonetics exam.
