^Get writing!!!!!


I started writing my letter for application, and it's proving difficult. I've got one sentence down...

I'm up to 1,336 words. I might just make it.... I know that 700 words in six hours is a pathetically low target, but I have pathetically low expectations of myself xD

As long as you have yourself a goal, than you shall conquer and defeat!

For I am English! And that is what we do!!

facebook is like the worst book I've ever read. the characters do not evolve one bit and the plot is going nowhere.

Not to mention a hereditary predisposition towards imperialistic urges and a distinct sense of entitlement :D (Wow, that is a big wordy sentence. I feel like I should write 'The cat sat on the mat' a few times to make up for it...)

I have a weird spot on my back. So I am being a grown up and going to the doctor's tomorrow.

I don't think it looks like anything super nasty but I'm still slightly terrified.


I really hope it's nothing!

Your post actually reminded me that I had to make an appointment with the dermatologist to check out all my spots (here in Europe there's a week you can get free appointments to get your spots checked out, if you're fast enough at least, there weren't any more available in my city, so I'm going in the city where I go to school).

^men get to scratch their balls, though. From what I've heard, this probably balances out.

Also, I'm a B cup, so don't flobble.

We can also flop them out after having them in pants all day.



Random thought:
I need to write a letter to go with the application for this course, and I don't know what to write. Would it just be like a cover letter?
Depends what the course is. Some of them give templates. For my (film making) course, we had to say why we should be accepted into the course, how it would benefit our study/career, what aspect of the subject we were most interested in and what experience (or education, I suppose) we have had with the subject.

My co-worker and I might be going to "Bats Day" at Disneyland (a.k.a: the goth day).
I think I've forgotten how to dress like a goth...

Bats Day is super fun!!! Maybe we can meet up!

I don't know! I think for now it's a Disneyland/California exclusive thing.

Also, it's an unofficial/not sponsored by Disney event.

I'm glad it's no longer in August anymore. Much too hot for vinyl or petticoats...

The reasoning behind it was that it was the first day that all of the Annual Passes were not blocked from the Summer holidays. But honestly...late summer in Southern California is still hot. There are significantly less attendees passing out now...

In other news, I am probably one of the only people in the world that doesn't exactly fulfill their contracted job description but consistently gets asked back...

I hate it when I have a little crush on someone and it isn't mutual.
