    I just put The Count of Monte Cristo on my ipod. It more than doubled the size of my music library. Now won't get bored when it gets slow at work any more.

    Congratulations, Ashleigh! That's wonderful! :D It's good to hear that all your hard work has paid off.

    That's so great, 'Mina! The picture you got first place in was my favorite when you posted them before. Good job!

    Congratulations Mina! That is awesome news love.

    I am in a good mood, because while I don't feel very well this morning, I had a lovely night sleep again and it looks like it is going to be good weather today as well, which means Amity won't be cooped up in the house all day long.

    Northampton Uni's open day was brilliant. :)

    The course seems perfect for me, because although it's a lot of work, all the work involves ACTING. No coursework, no textual analysis (except the kind where you say "I think this line is meant to be said like... but I think it could work like... so let's do that) and best of all, 100% Practical. :)

    Plus, the campus is pretty awesome, not like Liverpool JMU, where they got a map of Liverpool and splattered university all over it. :p

    Indeed it is something! Congratulations. And, of course, tis doesn't mean he needs to stop looking for something even better.

    Anything that helps make ends meet. :)

    Hanging out with childhood friends, sharing girl talk, watching movies, and enjoying a "picnic" in front of the TV. Tonight's theme..."Favorite Leading Men" I brought the Johnny Depp and John Cusack movies. ;) I always love these sleepovers.

    I earned the highest grade in the class on my first sociology exam, with an 82 out of 90 questions, equating to a 91%.

    I had this professor before for a different course (Advanced Placement Macroeconomics) last year, and I came very close to failing almost all of his exams in that course. I am quite proud of myself; I never thought I would ever be able to pass an exam he's written --and look at me now, top of the class (so far). :)
