in a trail of fire

I'm currently studying for a BA in Classics at the University of Wales, Trinity Saint David. It involves much Latin and Ancient Greek and is therefore perfect for me. Sadly I don't get any choice on my modules next year - my languages are compulsory and I also need to do 'Research Methods' and something called the 'Classics Project' which apparently is a mini dissertation. I have no idea what I'm going to do for either that or my actual dissertation as yet.

I want to teach Latin when I finish my course so that means taking a PGCE as well. People keep saying there aren't any jobs for Latin teachers but I've definitely seen some about so I'm confident that I will be able to continue doing what I love in future.

I'm collecting my empty Marmite jars, as of today. Because I felt like it. ( Read more... )

No and no. Telling people my feelings has always been something I struggle with, even now.

Feel like P Diddy.

Okay, really, I smack at the alarm if that's what woke me up and spend about five minutes contemplating the state of the Latte (generally a state of 'I hate awakeness'). Then I roll out of bed, and usually check my laptop if I have time. If I'm getting up for work, I shuffle downstairs to try and have some breakfast. I'm not very good at food in the mornings, espeecially right away, so I prefer when I get a chance to do something else instead.

Eh, that's about it.

I have this ability to re-read books a ridiculous number of times. There's no limit on how many times, and I'll happily read stupidly long series again and again. I read Lord of the Rings for a fourth time over the summer, The Bartimaeus Trilogy again, I've read IT and The Stand about three times each. Same for The Dark Is Rising Sequence. I like to go and discover bits that I hadn't noticed before. You'd think I'd run out of stuff to notice on the fourth read but sometimes a plot point will just click and I'll go OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH.

...Oh, as if you had to ask, when the answer's in the question title!

Robbie Williams. Okay, there are singers with better voices (much better, yeah), but he is a fantastic entertainer too and I just love the energy he puts into his songs. He knows how to work a crowd and I always like to watch his concerts when they get played on TV.

Rudebox wasn't one of his greatest moments, however.

Hmm. Well, I tend to be pretty shy when faced with new people, I take refuge in being polite. It can take me ages to make friends but I'm a lot better now than I used to be - for almost all of my first year at seconday school, I had no friends to hang out with and spent every lunchtime on my own in the library. It takes someone with a talkative personality to get me talking back, I guess.

Er, as to benefits? I suppose if people can't get to know you, they can't know what'll hurt you the most. On the flipside, you've got no one to share anything with, no one to bounce off and no one just to give you a hug when you need it and boy, that really sucks.

UMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM. The problem with spending a day with Wesker, sexy as he is, is the fact that he has a habit of killing people.

Oh, you know what'd be awesome? Chilling with Vash from Trigun.
