…with the sound of ME BEING FINISHED! And music, obviously. Well. That was something, wasn’t it? The past week was the longest 7 days ever to exist. I honestly felt that Music would never arrive, that I’d be trapped in this sort of “almost-finished-not-quite-there-yet” time warp thing forever. Evidently, I am not. Music has been [...]
Depression session today. I had prepared Newgrange, Bronze age, three of the Ninja Turtles (Leonardo, Raphael and Michaelangelo) and I was relying on a nice packaging/graphic design question for the Appreciation. But no. Irish Section: I had to do the first question, which I was not happy about. For one thing, I hadn’t revised [...]
(Note: Ordinary level Maths being discussed here) Yes, pure gammy. I have done every single exam paper from 2009 back over and over again, yet somehow they manage to pull the most obscure weird little summies out of nowhere. Let me see: Q1: I have completely forgotton how to do scientific notation or whatever. I [...]
I’m sorry for my big break in posting there, I was tremendously busy these past few weeks with orals and practicals and history projects and getting mildly obsessed with the new Doctor Who and…wait, where was I? Oh yes. Orals went well, I think. My year had heard some horror stories from the repeats – [...]
It’s the day of the French oral. I wait patiently in a small room, feeling confident. I am called into the examination chamber (I was going to just call it a room but chamber sounds nice and fancy) and, strangely, there are quite a few people in there. I am confused. I sit and the [...]
I love spring. I love the stretch in the evening, the buds on the trees, na h-uan ag damhsa sna pairceanna (or something like that…) but these days I just can’t get no joy. In winter, when it was dark and rainy and even snowy, it was easy to gather my bag and baggage together [...]
I had a lovely little blog prepared detailing the whole load of nothing I did over the midterm but then life kept getting in the way of completing it and getting it posted. I sorry. The life thing that got in the way was an experience that left me in a very confused state. There is [...]
I’m really sorry I haven’t posted in ages (though it was probably nice to have a break from my constant prattling on and on), mocks have sort of taken over my life. I wasn’t actually planning on that happening at all, but when I come home from a day’s thinking and remembering and writing, oh [...]
Today was a very important day. Today, we received a very special “legal document from the department, THE DEPARTMENT GIRLS” that listed out all our subjects and the levels at which we will be examined, and the point of it all is to check and make sure that everything is right as rain so we’re [...]
Grad dates. All I have heard about since the return to school is grad dates. “OMG did you hear Mary Kate asked JohnJoe over the Christmas!” “I’m gonna ask Eugene guys!” “Good for you Margaret!” etc etc. Yeah. Good for you, Margaret. How the hell am I supposed to concentrate on my mockadoodledoos (they’re a [...]
