Unexpected at 2am in the library, was a fellow walking in in his sailor hat. Unexpected and unnecessary. Brilliant, though. What you sadly cannot see, is that since sitting down he has opened 'Ice Ice Baby' on youtube and that is all he's been doing. Perfect.

In other news, I have writer's block, and wish this was a legitimate reason for the incompleteness of my work.

Good Morning, three hours of sleep! No no, that's all I wanted. No more, no less.

To share with you all (all three of my readers faithful), I have finished and submitted one essay. But don't worry! I still have another hefty one to do, so my late night entries won't be a thing of the past just yet.

Just thought I'd share with you all this morning a wonderful moment where science meets gaming nerd/popular culture.

Hello there, 'blogosphere'.

I come to you again in the dead of night, in the hope that the words I write here will magically become relevant to what I'm saying in my work, and I can simply copy and paste, click send and go home. No such luck, so far.

Here is a picture of a trifle I made. I don't have a profound poem to accompany it. Suffice to say, I feel strongly that the trifle represents our skin, the many layers being dug at by the spoon of life. When the spoon first takes away a scoop, the trifle begins to sag, and fall, and eventually the trifle is no more. What a powerful metaphor for the life we lead.

It also helps that the trifle tastes delicious.

Today I called in sick to work, as I was so tired I looked like an extra from a Hammer horror/similar. Not unlike this picture, but with longer hair.

I return to Newcastle on Wednesday, for Easter family fun. Although apparently it's snowing, which has upset me an inordinate amount.

I'd go as far to say that's all my news. I shall endeavour to be more interesting next time.

beijos!

I am too late to blog about fashion week, which I didn't even bother to go and attend (was in Newcastle, also. Minor obstacle.) so I won't blog about that, aside from I very much enjoyed Valentino but wish they had more heels on, and Alexander McQueen remains one of the most potent and sorely missed designers.

This post is a culmination of about 6 hours and counting in the library. I gave myself until sunrise to get my word count up to 2000, but so far im on 1300 and the world is turning at a rapid pace. I'd be on course if it wasn't for daylight savings.

Appeasing my self inflicted library pain with Young Jeezy ft. Jay Z. Of the 12, 185 views it has had to date, I'd comfortably say I'm responsible for about 9,184 of them. Approximately.

Actually just checked BBC News and the Moscow metro has been bombed, which puts into perspective my essay. I've been on the Moscow metro, we had a tour of it. I took this photo whilst on it, because if you look closely there you'll see Stalin casually riding the rails in the other carriage.

This has been a superb essay distraction and I can only imagine I will revisit it frequently in the next 62 hours as I have extensive essays to do and little to no motivation to do them.
