Ok, I would really like to be over this cold now
Not least because I have work tomorrow, and I don’t really know how that’s gonna go down.
I don’t really want to call in sick with a cold, but then again 1) I don’t want to undo all my recovery by putting myself through my physical paces for 5 hours, 2) I don’t want to infect a bunch of people, 3) I’ve not had a day off sick for the whole 4 months I’ve...

Holy shit!
I think writing this post gave me a (very loose and basic) idea for my MA dissertation!
FINALLY! SOMETHING RESEMBLING INSPIRATION!! >.<
1. What was the last movie you watched in...
The New Sherlock Holmes.
Worth watching solely for the pony scene :3
36-day Movie Challenge
Because I’m too ill to do proper work… :P
1. What was the last movie you watched in theatres? 2. What was the first movie you ever remember watching on theaters? 3. Top 5 movies 4. Top 5 directors 5. A favorite adapted movie 6. Your best experience on going to the movies 7. A guilty pleasure 8. An overrated movie 9. An underrated movie 10. A movie that not many have heard of that...

Colds and Cures: Northern Dad's Time to Shine
Although I do try to be healthy and look after myself, if left to my own devices I can be pretty cavalier about my health: this is usually demonstrated by the fact that I’ll randomly go through 2-3 month phases of eating cereal all the time, by throwing caution to the wind during deadline time and subsisting on lucozade and 4 hours’ sleep, and taking 2 ibuprofen and 2 paracetamol...
Just found an awesome PhD programme in Medical...
Fully Funded.
And in the UK.
Plus it’s in a really interesting area: looking at the ethics of healthcare tourism in relation to euthanasia (e.g. a short stay in Switzerland).
One (colossal) problem: applications close TODAY.
Fuck.
:/
Ask a stupid question... [etc] →
But does anyone have any tips for getting rid of a cold (or at least speeding up the recovery?)
I’m seriously agitated that I’m getting nothing done, and that this cold is making me want to eat everything within a 4 mile radius (and then giving me tummy ache whenever I eat anything :/), etc. - Plus I really don’t want to have to miss work on Saturday for the sake of a bloody...

Really? You’re really going to do this now? Even though you know I’m extremely ill and feeling really down and lonely?
Wow.
Ok.

Northern Grandma Strikes Again
Aunty Gail: Take your phone with you to the appointment, then when you're finished you can phone me to come and get you.
Grandma: If you're coming from the supermarket then you'll be on your mobile...
Aunty Gail: Yes.
Grandma: But I don't know your mobile number.
Aunty Gail: Yes you do! It's on your speed-dial; that's how you called me when there was an emergency the other night, remember?
Grandma: yes, but that number's for when I need you AT NIGHT; how do I call you in the day?!
Aunty Gail: o.0

Damien called; I may have overreacted. Apparently the girl in the photo is a lesbian and his phone was having signal dramz (on this occasion I am more inclined to believe him as I emailed his mum asking if her bf had returned (as he was out with Damo) and she said she hadn’t been able to get hold of him either).I feel like a fool, but this is what the last 5 months have done to me.
So...

My advice if someone cheats on you is to leave it. A relationship is like a glass vase, once it has smashed, it’s very hard to put back together, and even if you do manage to put it back together, it still has cracks in it.
I know, one of my biggest regrets was getting back with him after he...

Have done. Hell I’ve even begged. I would plead the whole “to be fair, he’s not done it since 14th December” case, but at this point I almost cba. He usually blames his signal, but it’s amazing how he’s been to...
Shaking right now; I don’t whether it’s because of this, or because of the cold. All I know is it’s pretty violent; teeth chattering and everything.
Something’s not right… something isn’t sitting right.
I hope I’m wrong, I really want to be wrong… But by that same token I kind of want to be right, just so that I don’t feel as though I’m...

Awesome: writing an essay with the set title of “What’s Wrong With Killing?”
More awesome: checking the wordcount after finishing the first section to see this:
I am easily amused…. :3
2 key things have made me calm down re: my 2nd essay in the last half hour:
A rewriting of the plan with (what I think) is an interesting new take on the question
The realisation that it doesn’t matter if I fuck this up a little as it’s only worth 4% of my final grade :3
Second essay of the day
200 words in, and I hate it…. :/

First Draft of First MA research paper is DONE! :D
Although with the word count at 6,056/5,000 something tells me I’ve gone wrong somewhere…. :P
