So I said I wasn't going to do it, but I'm kinda thinking I might give it a try. I'm going to be busy with school, but... writing is relaxing. I managed to write my first book in three weeks while doing a dissertation, so maybe I can do it again. I wrote 2,500ish words yesterday which is well over target. Let's see if I can write another chapter now...

I fancied a Sarah Earnshaw av. And then I fancied a Wicked mood theme (or maybe it was the other way around?). And then I thought I should match.

So, I have a shiny new LJ layout based on my most favourite of favourite musicals!

No, summer is bloody fantastic. Not because it's summer. No, I despise hot things. Things that are hot. Warm things. Warm weather. Baaad. All bad.

No, I love summer because I HAVE NOTHING TO DO. And occasionally that gets boring, but mostly, it's just super super fun. I'm so happy. I got my certificate, so I'm officially a Bachelor of Science now! Officially a graduate. Can't wait to start my course next year.

I might be on £14,000 for the year, tax free :| If I am I'm going to go into savings mode. That is, between spending it all on holidays.

I need a mood theme... moooood theme.... maybe I should make one. Do I have the patience? Oooh, a Castle mood theme could be FUN!

I just won Beyonce tickets! How exciting! *bounces* I'm in the rafters, but considering that on Monday's Beyonce concert THEY PUT ME BEHIND A CURTAIN!!! it's probably going to be a better view.

And ugh, it annoys me sometimes that con guests have exclusivity agreements (probably? I know some do) with organisers. With people like Starfury it's not so bad, because they run excellent events. But if I want to see Supernatural I have to put myself through a weekend of torture that I probably won't even enjoy. Every staff member I've spoken to at Asylum has been rude, there's too many people, it's disorganised as hell, ugh, and it doesn't sound like they're learning from it. I'm hoping the planned European one lives up to the title of 'Asylum' less than the British ones so far. Do I even take the chance? I hated the first one. They actually deliberately locked me in the hall when I had to leave for my train. I felt like I was auditioning for a concentration camp.

Expo is another one that pisses me off to no end. The staff are even worse. I don't think there's a guest in this universe that can make me go there, but I'm willing to be proved wrong.

This time tomorrow I will have submitted my very last assignment at uni. All I feel is overwhelming relief, and desperation for it to be over with. I had a great time here, but after my fourth year of studying, which came after 15 years of full time study before that, MY GOD, I NEED THE BREAK! Four months. Four months of doing nothing but writing stories, going skating, and scraping for pennies.

I have to go to uni to submit this and print off some more stuff that I need in less than 7 hours... I need to sleep.

If anyone is interested in discount designer gear for men or women priced at up to 80% off retail price, try Gilt Groupe here. That should give you my invite code so you don't have to wait.

I've got some really amazing clothes from there, especially Marc Jacobs!

Step 1: Put your iTunes on random.
Step 2: Post the first line from the first 25 songs that play, no matter how embarrassing the song.
Step 3: Let everyone guess what song and artist the lines come from.
Step 4: Upload the songs when someone asks for it
Step 5: Looking them up on Google or any other search engine is CHEATING!

I slept for 4 hours then woke up to go to the travelodge room sale. I spent 50 minutes slowly waiting for every page to load, pulling my hair out as I did. I got to the confirmation page... and it took so long to load that it rejected me and pushed me back out to the queue so now I have to go through it all again and akuHAIUDHASILDUASHLD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
