The One With My Thesis
Back from the dead. Honestly been crazy couple of weeks, I've been allover the place. I actually forgot to hand in a book review in Psychology and I don't know what's gonna happen with that now. I just realized today that I confused April 11 with April 21 as due date and I emailed the lecturer, saying I'll submit it tomorrow. I hope to talk to him soon and explain it was just an honest mistakes and I have never missed a due date before, but I have a feeling 'honest mistake' is nowhere near university vocabulary. I was seriously freaked out over it when I first realized what happened. I'm better now. A little. Will try to sort this mess out tomorrow, anyway.
On the other hand, my thesis is completely done. Everything, including images, bibliography, footnotes, even acknowledgment; everything is done. It was so weird when I finished writing it. I barely managed the word limit (I went over it… by a few hundreds, but that's not too bad), and I honestly just wanted to write on and on because I still had so much to say. I actually have to say I'm pretty proud of it and I might even upload it here after graduation (if it doesn't get me in trouble). But regardless, the amount and kind of stuff I learned while writing is unbelievable. Not only did it contribute to my education and general knowledge about a subject I'm very passionate about, but it only made me want to study it in more depth. Hopefully, if I get to write an MA or PhD in later years, I'll be able to return to it. Hopefully. What's with missing essay due-dates, it doesn't seem very likely. And it's so frustrating! I had this book review written for over a month! Okay, frustration overflow again… not gonna do any good at this stage.
Going to Andy's Friday after college and hopefully will avoid venting my frustration. On a side note, the fact that I'm going straight to work from his place on Saturday is not exactly recipe for non-disaster because in this case, I'm seriously not looking to that. Let's just say I did not have the best weekend at work last week and I have a strong justified feeling it's going to continue into this week as well. But… bright side: seeing my honey again. So let's concentrate on that.
Don't know if I said anything, but unfortunately our Rome plans would have to be postponed until further notice (or October) because our holidays just don't coincide and neither of us can change anything. So at the moment, our summer plans kinda focus on the Linkin' Park and Metallica concerts in June and August respectively. Oh and Donegal sometime in August also seems to be the plan. I was supposed to take my parents to Rome instead but now my mom backed out and screwed those plans. It might still work out with my dad only, but I don't know. Doesn't seem likely that he'll go without her because he'll feel all guilty leaving her behind (and she knows it, so she pretty much knew when she backed out, she killed the plans for everyone, but that's mom). So yeah. Completely planless. Grand.
Yesterday I dropped by Dundrum Penneys to see people (well, namely Orla) and we had a nice chat for a while until she had to go and do that working thing. I caught a glimpse of Laura, but didn't find her when I was looking for her before I left so I just went home. Not a whole lot of gossip, if you exclude the fact that Ben turned down to be a downright arsehole (what a surprise), Dave seriously surprised me and Stephen continues to behave like a child, a jerk or both. I wonder when he'll realize that he's been flushing his life down the toilet and take the "subtle" hint in the fact that it is the people who seem to know him best that are not talking to him for whatever reason, so maybe something is better changed. All in all, I really should try to get my ass to a coffee night or something, maybe if it ever doesn't include whoever I'm trying to avoid.

The One With "After the Fall" #10
Bleedin' Christ! 
Okay, I realize it's been a while since I last talked about the "Angel: the Series" and "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" comics, but I just saw the (potential?) cover art for "Angel: After the Fall" issue #10 and I'm in awe. This is absolutely brilliant, this is the most beautiful I've ever seen, at least on Angel (the Buffy comics artists have been doing remarkably well as far as covers go, the Angel ones, not so much). But this one… this one took my breath away. So once again, bleedin' wow.
Also, a side-note; thumbs way up for the way they drew Angel. He is not a vampire anymore, he's not exactly your invincible-Joe anymore either. He's older, he's weary, he's vulnerable… he's human. Brilliant.

Mood: Wow

The One With New Records
Honey and I set a new record in "unusual" behavior. I went over to his place straight after college on Wednesday and well, we ended up watching "Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas" eventually and afterwards caught bits of "Braveheart" on Sky. By the time of the bloody battle scene in which Mel kicks some major English butt we were engaged in a serious makeout session. Funny thing that the entire time I was wondering to myself what sort of people make out to gory death scenes, but, it being far from the first time we were sharing a thought, he ended up being the one to voice it. Insert funny moment of realization
. I promised him another one when they chop off Mel's head. Granted, I never kept my promise because we ended up in the bedroom long before that happened. Yes, we really are sick people. But it's more fun this way
.
Another heavenly morning though. Took me forever to wake up, especially bearing in mind I barely slept at night because soon after I fell asleep I started getting headaches (fuck that
). But to wake up to him first thing in the morning seriously made it all worthwhile. I think we did clock our longest wake-up session to date, although both of us wished it could be longer. I suggested we could stay right there for a few hundred years, to which he suggested forever. Forever works for me just fine. Then real life intervened, which included the fact that I had college today and he had to go and drive his sister to the airport. Gotta hate real life, especially seeing as thanks to it getting in the way we won't see each other until next Wednesday. Sure, there are phones, but not to mention the fact I always despised phones, being with him and chatting over the phone is hardly the same thing in my book (or his I think).
