I bought one. : D. It's pretty cool, tho I'm still getting used to typing on it. Will keep me artificially brief. : P

um. A week and two days til the end of teaching of my third year at university. Really scary that if I weren't doing a double degree I'd be almost ready to graduate. Not sure if I want to continue with my politics next year after doing history and english this year. But I want an English major now, so I have to keep going. And I want to do honours in history.

I sort of know what I want to do then, but there's no guarantees, and I am freaked out by a real job.

But before that, I need to get all my work done, and look in to a summe job. I'd like to work at the local council library, because it'd be easy and close.

Borderlands and Brutal Legend. Relationships and (post?) teen angst. Lovely spring weather and lingering colds. Apathy and anxiety. Most of this aren't juxtapositons, but they definitely are pairings for me. I want things to be similar to now forever. Insert Alphaville here. Poor joke, I know.

Guess I will sign off, got to get up earlyish to read for an awesome tute that I will only ever have once after tomorrow....
: ) stair.

Hey you guys, I don't have Swine Flu. No way.
It was just a bad cold. More of a cough, really, because that is the main way it manifested itself. Hacking and spluttering. It wasn't so bad I couldn't go to uni, but I only went to class, didn't talk much, and did no other work. Which sucks.

Hey you guys, I saw Moon today.
It was really good. The trailer sucks, makes it look like a 2001 rip-off. It's deeper than that, and more interesting. You think you have it pinned down a few times, but it doesn't go quite as you expect, which is refreshing. The score was excellent. If you've read 'The Moon is a Harsh Mistress' by Heinlein, you'll see where the inspiration comes from. I highly recommend it. Oh, and you like David Bowie? He isn't in it, but his son was the director.

Hey you guys, Stargate Universe started last week.
The premiere was in the form of a telemovie, and it was kinda Battlestar-esque. It doesn't seem as camp as SG-1, or as optimistic as SG-A. Looks like it will be darker, more serial and more serious. Plus they have natty new uniforms with square cut collars. You know. Like Japanese schoolboys, or Battlestar.

Hey you guys, that's all.
Feel like doing a haiku.
That's all, bye for now.

BLERGH.

But seriously, I might. My dad had the flu last week (and is getting better from it now), and he had a flu shot, so it's not really likely it's anything else.

Couldn't come at a worse time. Back to uni tomorrow (after Labour Day today), and I have to go to my tutorials because I have one quiz for American history and one presentation for Tudor/Stuart British history to do, and in English we're talking about a really good Atwood book. And I have to finish my research for my British essay this week.

It's not actually too bad right now, if it is pork plague. Just an annoying cough and a bit of aching in my shoulders which might just be because I worked a long shift yesterday. But my dad didn't have much fun at all when he had it.

So, that's pretty much all for now. I hope it doesn't work out bad, and that I can go to uni all week. I mean, I'm kinda of helping people out if it means they get immunity.
