    Happy Valentine's Day everyone. I personally hate the day, as it's more like D-Day for singles; but everyone else should enjoy! :)

    Exams are finished and I'm drained. Wrote six essays, thirteen sides of A4, all in the time period of 3 and a half hours. It's over at last.

      That's impressive! I was always a slow writer - I could never have managed that much!

    3. Ben

      Ben

      It killed me but needed to be done. I'm now well rested and enjoying a bit of breathing space. :)

    2. Pixie

      Pixie

    Just when I'm feeling down things start to look. Received an invitation from Manchester Met for an interview; seems they enjoyed my creative writing enough to give me a shot after all.

    Stressed to the point of insanity with revision and a stupid deadline for a coursework draft that was very inconsiderately set at the time of our exams.

    Ben

    Ridiculously tired and irritable this morning; got to keep my head down and get through today without shouting at people.

    1. SueK

      SueK

      Is that because you stayed up to watch the Ashes?

    2. Ben

      Ben

      Nah, I've stayed up nearly every night of The Ashes, that doesn't bother me. I was just irritable for some reason.

  20. Ben

    Ben

    Common England, don't mess around finishing this one off.

      Hello. I just read your 'about me' writing, and it was so compelling I have to say you are by NO MEANSeven a little bit boring, but intriguing, oui, and so I might sneak in once and a while if I may to read what you have to say. :)

  21. Ben

    Ben

    Always dislike that feeling of loss at finishing a wonderful, though-provoking novel.
