BUT if i doo manage not to fail and die, this time next week, i'll (theoretically) have a degree. mcdonalds career, here i come! urn:lj:livejournal.com:atom1:shadowkat57:986 2004-10-25T09:49:57Z 2004-10-25T09:49:57Z oh yeah. if you like your humour dark, warped, geeky and sarcastic...read www.somethingpositive.net<br />the more rpg/tabletop gaming/lovecraft you know, the more you'll get it. urn:lj:livejournal.com:atom1:shadowkat57:634 2004-10-25T09:41:50Z 2004-10-25T09:41:50Z hmm, contemplating my story (because i should be contemplating an essay). is it a cliche if laura receives info on the alien culture in a dream/while unconscious? otherwise, i'm not sure how she works everything out.<br />also, on the subject of my essay - if anyone knows anything about greek/roman didactic poetry, tell me all. i'm not too hopeful on this one. urn:lj:livejournal.com:atom1:shadowkat57:418 2004-10-24T16:01:38Z 2004-10-24T16:01:38Z well, i have a livejournal account. i don't actually know what that means though...
