   Morning already?
Well... the fell blow came. Mum's threatened to cut my internet time. She says because it's been on all weekend I've been online too much. Can anyone else here say "download"? Oh yeah, and "anime"? Che. She confuzzles me sometimes.

But then again, maybe it's for the best. I've done nowhere near enough revision, and I'm starting to get really scared. I need a C in these exams. Unless my last university saves my ass with a lower entry requirement that I can use as insurance. See, I might be able to pull off a C in Pure 1 and 2, maybe even in Stats if I haul my butt into gear pretty sharpish. But mechanics... oy... It's not like resitting it again'll do that much good either. Since I'm not doing another mechanics module this year, nothing to refresh my memory, y'know? So... Yeah... I'm fretting like nobody's business. And it doesn't help that I'm pretty much the only one resitting mechanics. I've got nobody to revise with, and that also sucks.

Although, on Thursday, Kal came round and we revised Othello, even though she doesn't have the exam. All this stuff she was explaining made me twitch a little. Y'know, how in the heck did my class miss out on so much? O_o;; Talk about a disadvantage. But, no matter, I've got the concept of the play now. And hopefully, it'll help me in the resit. I have to get higher than an E, or I'm gonna cry. Seriously, I'm gonna cry. I deserve a better grade than an E, I know I know the play better than that. I dare anyone to try and tell me otherwise.

As for revision... mechanics and Othello are my main panic points at the moment. Pure 1 and 2 I'm not that worried about, and everything else is after the weekend. I'm off work on the Saturday, so I can really get stuck into my Stats, English and ICT revision.

Exam stress... it's so sucky, huh?

Thoughtful Forums
It's wierd. I was just looking at my member list and it suddenly struck me. In the space of one month I've got 34 members (at least 30 unique ones) to Working Title. I'd call that a success by anyone's books.

I mean I've had to fight tooth and nail at some points. Some people needed to settle down a little. IT's kind of a good feeling.

I got a B grade on a practise maths paper today as well. 70%, which just scrapes in at a B. But it's a B - and if I can do that in the exam it kicks me a few points more into that C. Only time will tell I suppose.

And I talked to Ginny today, geez I've missed her. And ErinZyger finally rejoined WT. I thought she'd forgotten me :-( but evidently not ^___^;;

So... yes... today's been a good day all around. I'm pleased with myself ^_^;;

   *watching the Two Towers*
Sam: It's like in the old stories Mr. Frodo. The ones that really mattered. Full of darkness and danger they were. And sometimes you didn't want to know the end - because how could the end be happy? How could the world go back to the way it was when so much bad had happened? But in the end, it's only a passing thing - this shadow. Even darkness must pass. A new day will come. And when the sun shines, it will shine out the clearer. Those are the stories that stayed with you - that meant something. Even if you were too small to understand why. But I think, Mr. Frodo, I do understand. I know now. Folk in those stories had lots of chances of turning back, only they didn't. They kept going... because they were holding onto something.
Frodo: What're we holding onto Sam?
Sam: That there's some good in this world, Mr. Frodo. And it's worth fighting for.

I loved that quote so much. It reallys shows who Sam is and what his position in the Fellowship is. He's a great character, and it ain't just because we share names ^_~

Well, naughty naughty me. While revising for my maths (Pure, if you wanna know - nasty stuff x.x) I started to doodle. I'm thinking about making her the mascot for my website.

Here she is! ^____^

And before anyone says anything, I know the second symbol isn't right. It's facing in the wrong direction, and I think it's upside down too.

Gotta study more hmm? ^__^;;

Opinions? They'd surely be appreciated.

   Divine Penance returns ^___^
Well, I posted a version of this up on the Poetry and Literature forum over on OB, but it didn't get a very warm response. Maybe it'll do better here, maybe it won't. But I can just slap some in whenever I feel like it, so it's all good ^_~

Divine Penace makes it's return on MyOtaku ^_~ Be glad masses!

Oh yeah, and the story hasn't actually started yet - it's just in the testing stages. I'll actually put something in here later ^_^;;

A Story... It starts... we finally get to see if my thingy works. And yes... I nicked most of the code from James's funky entries. So yeah, quick test over - let's see if it works ^_^;;

Ho ho ho, and all that rot ^_~
Well, how sad is this? It's Christmas day and I'm sitting on the internet writing in my myOtaku. Yup, pretty sad...

But, here's hoping Santa was good to you all, and that you got what you wanted/needed/deserved!

What else to write? Just basically to hope you've all had a good Christmas. And to keep in touch :( Loads of you have wandered off! Yeah, fine, partly my fault. Exams and everything. But don't disappear on me! *cries*

Heh, ^_~ Merry Christmas guys!
