Ha.
I’ve been drinking since 2PM with my Greek class.
And my super fine Greek tutor.
YUM
I've lost another 5lbs!
I’m now into the 8 stone area! YAY. :D
And my essay (To what extent can we identify a coherent frontier policy in this period?) which, due to Collections, I only had one day to read all the material and write the bloody thing. Fortunately, and obviously, the only comment I got back was that I needed to go into greater detail when referencing specific frontiers. But I did get a high 2:1 for...
First essay of the term, received well!
MY ESSAY IS DONE.
Had three days to do it (one of those days was taken up entirely by Exams), one was spent reading the massive stack of six thick books to read for it and today was spent entirely writing the bloody thing.
I have a chest infection and am so not up for this. But I am done. And it is beautiful.
Did I mention how much I love Rome? This term is going to rock.

Not even seen it.
Obviously something to do with Molly, or else her role would be useless in the long run.
Even if he does actually die, doing another series may be disappointing.
lovewroteandwrit asked: Or just an effective memory at all, really! Mine is a sieve for anything useful, which isn't good when it comes to closed-book English exams :') x

Greek exam today.
Absolute mare.
On another note, my audition for Chekov’s stuff went really well. :)
Back in Oxford.
Sat in my little den, eating celery and loving life.
Family heirlooms.
A silver and gold pocket pocket watch with family crest motto engraved upon the inside cogs. Set of four, each to a family member.
Antique chess set with oak-wood board and Alice in Wonderland carved-marble pieces.
Set of historical reference books with gold lined pages and original plates.
Silver spoons and teacups with the family crest etchings.
Lots of little trinkets and jewellery things,...

Today I wore Pyjamas. Because I've crippled my...
But yesterday I wore a size 6 shirt and 8 jeans. That’s UK, by the way. I’ve had an epiphany - I’m not fat. I’m imperfect and I can still improve myself, but I’m doing well. :)
Fairly happy with recovery.
Mother always says:
I either wear very smart clothes,
or pyjamas.
This is true.

Summer (post exams)
After the stress of Trinity, I will have the Magdalen Commemoration Ball (170 pounds a ticket and absolutely worth it in my opinion) to cool my nerves and get me drunk. Then on the 1st of July I jet of to Sangro Valley to unearth the secrets of the earth. In other words, I’m going on a dig, living in an Italian village where not one of the locals speak English, picking apart the ground with...
winter baby writings: What if nowhere wants me?... →
bethanmay:
What if nowhere wants me? What if no one ever wants me? Why do I feel unloved? Why do I feel I am only good for a flirty text and the proposition of a shag? Why did I sleep with him? Why have I kissed so many people? Why have I made so many mistakes? Why did I apply to Oxford and Durham and…
What if I never have a normal relationship? Will I ever feel at ease with one? Why am...
I date because I’m either;
A. Hungry
B. Bored
C. (Very rarely) Interested.
This is why I only wine date with my friends, they satiate everything with love and beauty. :).
