in a trail of fire

I don't know why but seeing some of the ads in LJ in Welsh makes me laugh.

Nothing much going on recently. I spent the end of the weekend up until yesterday morning finishing up some coursework and now that it's all been handed in, I've been able to get back into RP. I sort of got caught flat-footed at Promenade but I think I've caught up okay~

UHHHHHH what else... I had a good scream at people in my kitchen last night, waking me pup at 4am by making a fuckton of noise, which isn't fun when your room is right next to the kitchen. I ended up calling the porters to send them out because my telling-off did nothing except prompt some stupid bitching from the boys in there. I wish I didn't feel the need to apologise all the time, I saw one of the girls in there today and what I said was, "I'm sorry for yelling last night, it was just late and I wanted to sleep." She said it was understandable but... eh, I shouldn't let myself do that. To be fair, I think it WAS the guys making stupid cracks about me on the other side of the fairly thin wall. I'll be seeing my personal tutor on Friday about it anyway. If I see one of the boys, I know exactly what I'll be saying to him.

What else, what elssssssssssse - exams at the end of the month. Just two, Advanced Latin and Intermediate Greek. Not particularly worried about either of them, I got about 80% on my last Greek test and Latin generally comes easily to me.

Other... sssstuff. ...Oh yeah I'm back in Wales, jsyk. If that wasn't obvious. I made a twitter account that I probably won't use much except to follow my lovely flatmate and her girlfriend's twitter over here. I think they're a good laugh and I'd quite like to see the song they might post. The two of them are pretty good singers and one plays guitar really well.

So... yeah...

My life is average? Maybe, but on the whole, I'm happy lately. Much happier than I was when I made that venting post, haha.

Though I miss my icons :|

I've been very up and down this week in terms of ~emotions~ so I've decided to write a post that cannot fail to make me happy: all about ~*~*~*~LATIN~*~*~*~

( Cut because I doubt anyone actually cares about my love affair with a dead language, or linguonecrophilia as Miri called it. )

...I'm posting this everywhere: plurk, facebook, and now here. Because my RAEG at the idea of anyone trying to close their Classics department is too great for words.

So basically, I'm just asking people to help with this petition: http://www.petitiononline.com/clalds10/petition-sign.html

Pleeeaaaase do it, because apparently September 2010 is gonna be the last year for a straight Latin/Greek degree up there, and they want to get rid of Classic completely. NOT ON MY WATCH.
