A mosquito bit me on my butt! :( TRYING NOT TO SCRATCH! Tak glam!
A bunch of us blew up in Lit class today at our most inefficient lecturer! We traveled all the way to uni for a two-hour class that ended one hour early, and then we spent ten [...]

It’s bloody 10.30am and I’m so freaking angry.
First Monday I have to sleep in for 10 weeks.
8am: Right outside my bloody window, there’s some gigantic ratchet thing rat-tat-tatting away like a bloody 2-ton machine gun. I drift in and out of tortured sleep. I have snippets of dreams where the sound is that [...]

And so Super Sunday is over: Middlesbrough walking all over Man City and stomping all over their faces with a decisive 8-1 win; Reading winning 4-0 but still relegated; Liverpool with an uneventful but still heartwarming win over the Spurs, Reina taking the golden gloves and Torres beating van Nistelrooy’s record for best rookie season [...]

I’ve been wearing a sulk all evening. Rousted up from bed and a not-so-exciting headache, it was hard for me to pull myself to choir practice but I made it in the end. Still feeling lightheaded and a bit woozy and knowing that Puppy’s feeling even worse than I am with a high [...]

It’s been a crazy week.
Puppy wrenched his wrist and I’ve been a real nag trying to get him to stop cracking it.
I finished all my teaching lessons with my pupils. Now that I don’t have to teach them anymore, I miss my Sec 3s and Sec 1s terribly. Bah.
I haven’t finished marking my [...]

I made tomato salsa noodles for lunch - I mixed in a nice tablespoonful of orange jam into the sauce for an interesting twist to the taste. Was pretty good :)
And now it’s rainy, and quiet; there’s nobody at home and I can’t bring myself to start marking. I feel like standing at [...]

Rafa Benitez will consult his lawyers after claims made by Neil Warnock over his team selection.
Benitez was speaking after his much-changed Liverpool side beat relegation strugglers Fulham 2-0, almost exactly a year after he fielded a weakened team against the same side.
On that occasion Fulham won, leaving Warnock furious that Benitez had disrespected his Sheffield [...]

My Puppy’s going for reservist for the next two weeks.
Wails.
