A real holiday!

December 30th, 2002 · 3 Comments

I’m at work currently, but today’s the only day this week that I have to work– Hurrah! I actually get a real vacation! I’ll finally have time to set Harry back up (he’s been sitting in a crate in our sewing room since I moved home), and maybe even write some fanfic. I’ll definitely have […]

Gushing

December 26th, 2002 · 2 Comments

I woke up this morning at 5:30–an hour before I was planning on getting up for my drive to Provo–with a raging sore throat in addition to my cough, stuffy nose and headache. I called in sick to the library. Went to see a doctor this afternoon. It’s not Strep. Which is good news and […]

So much for a nice, restful holiday. . .

Between the library and Deseret Book, I’m scheduled for 42 hours this week. The only day I have off is Christmas itself. And I have a cold. Merry Christmas to me.

DONE!!!

December 20th, 2002 · 4 Comments

Finis, finished, completed, DONE DONE DONE!!! Can you tell I’m excited? I took my last final. Got an 85 on it. Normally, I’d be upset at that kind of a performance, but I could care less. I got good scores on all my other tests, and all my assignments, so if my grade goes down […]

3 down, 1 to go

December 18th, 2002 · No Comments

Well. That was a pain. Not exceedingly difficult, but long and complicated. At least it’s over. I’m talking about my CHum final. I did alright on the Blasted Key Combinations part. It was cake, and took very little time. Then came the real meat of the final, which was impossible to study for. Our teacher […]

One down, 3 to go. . .

December 17th, 2002 · 2 Comments

The above numbers may surprise you. I was surpised myself, when I walked into the computer lab last night only to find that my CHum final was not last night, but is on Wednesday instead. In some ways, this is good, in others, it is bad. Now I have to get work off. But, I […]

Finals Week

December 16th, 2002 · 3 Comments

Okay, so here’s how it’s going to go: I have a final today at 5:45. It’s my Computers and the Humanities Final, and should be cake, as long as I memorize all those blasted Keyboard Combinations before then. I never use the blasted Keyboard Combinations anyway– why take your hand off the mouse? Anyway, I […]

Chapters 2 and 3

December 13th, 2002 · No Comments

Of Retrospection are up. They’re really short, don’t worry. Chapters get a bit longer toward the end of the story, but not much. And you all will be pleased to know that Retrospection, at least, is completely written– not revised, but written. Part Two (as yet untitled) of the Shadows on the Autumn Moon trilogy […]

Everyone needs to read. . .

Shadows on the Autumn Moon: Retrospection. It’s chapter one of my best friend/roomate’s Lupin fic. She’s submitting it to Sugar Quill tomorrow, and I told her I’d post it on my blog. Please read it and comment on this post– she’s really nervous about it. Of course, Chapter 1 is really short. I’ll try to […]

Bad for us, good for the world. . .

December 12th, 2002 · 3 Comments

We lost. So sad. All I can say is, JKR better give us a release date pretty darn quick to make up for it. Although I hate that we lost, it’s actually a good thing for Book Aid. Now, they’ll get the $38,000 for the card PLUS the $24,000 we raised. That’s a lot of […]
