Tired, achy , and yet shiny
Oct. 2nd, 2008 05:09 pmSo, got up today at 0630.
No, wait, correction, woke up at 0630, calculated I could get another quarter hour sleep in if I was really zippy once the alarm went off again, got up at 0645.
Caught the bus I was aiming for, so it was all good in the end.
Put paperwork in to office at just right time. Now my credits from the Dr Who course will be poured in with my credits from the CCN courses. This couldn't happen until this month because of something to do with module assessment boards, dates, and delays.
Myth & Med continues interesting.
I'm not sure I'm making sense in lessons, but I continue to try. Out loud even.
I'm reading a whole lot. Don't know how much I'm absorbing. Guess I'll find out when there's an exam.
Think I'm doing okay about figuring out which bits are stasimon and episode, the words for today.
Also doing okay at remembering to pull quotes to back up my points when I makes them.
And I'm using the line numbers as instructed instead of page numbers as others persist in doing to everyone's confusion.
So, basically, okay.
Attempted social re visit to UEA library. Nobody else wanted to. MOstly they have lessons. Fair enough.
Wandered into town instead. KidLit books from Borders would have been more than I could afford, but from the market second hand book stall were 5p change from £5. Didn't get Alice in Wonderland there though. I think I can download it, I've seen something around. Anyway, I know I own all of them, I just don't want to treat those copies the way I do college books. Sure, they've probably been drawn on already, but we were small and didn't know better.
Then I went on a Quest for a Vortex Manipulator.
I have the strap. The watch strap stall on the market has something suitable. It looks nothing like the ones Captains Jack and John use, but then I didn't want it to because I'm not copying their costumes, just trying to justify the historical mess that will be mine. Now I can wear my tail coat, corset, medeval dress, swords, and ray gun, and call it a Time Agent.
I still need to find something to go under the flap. Preferably something that lights up and goes bleep when ordered. Don't really know what though.
So after that I caught the bus to the UEA.
Met up with a message board friend, but because they have lessons to teach and I have to get home before my energy runs out we met for all of 5 minutes today. Said hi, stomped off to bus.
I got more books out. I like books. I must remember to add up the total before carting them around on my back though. Three of KidLIt plus three of Euripides plus another Euripides plus all the files from the Dr Who course cause I grabbed the whole folder plus my computer plus paper and pens and headphones and things equals
OMG painkillers now pls *facepalm*
Actually my hip was hurting before I picked half that stuff up. My hip was hurting last night for no readily apparent reason. But now there's a certain generalised creakiness added to it all.
So the great part is, I just feel ordinary amounts of tired. Not overwhelmed, anxious, depressed, or any of those other ill words. I've just done a full day of study and am tired.
Pretty damn awesome.
