How can one man stop his ending?

Thu Jun 4, 2009, 10:36 PM
Holy hellcats Batman, this profile still exists. It's been a long time. Really. Almost two years since the last pitiful journal entry. Epic fail, y/y? Not that it really matters I suppose, I'm such a lurker. It never fails to amaze me that I am just as anti-social online as I am in RL. It sort of defies the point, doesn't it? Ah well. C'est la guerre.

In the intervening time, I have graduated from university and in a fit of madness further commited myself to tertiary education - now doing my Honours. I don't necessarily regret this decision, but I do both rue and lament it often enough. My first semester is officially over, though I still have a creative assignment and an essay to finish for next week. Thus my presence here. Procrastination FTW. I then have to start my thesis - which compromises of a 10,000 word creative piece and 5,000 word exegesis. Have I learnt my lesson? Of course not, I fully intend to complete a Masters degree after this. Thanks to my writing tutor complimenting my first assignment on Proust and reception theory, I am even considering a PhD in 20th Century French Literature. I think someone should shoot me before I do some serious damage to myself.

Even worse, with all this time spent at uni, I'm turning postively post modern.

While the 'zine is no more, I still find time to fangirl shamelessly though. This quality is probably detrimental to my uni work, but who cares, it's enjoyable. I always say it's obsession that makes life interesting. Might as well indulge. I continue to fawn over music [currently Green Day because yes, I love the new album] even though gigs are hard to come by this year. Just got tickets to see the lovely TAI in August though [ironic since the last time I posted on here was shortly after seeing them the first time]. I'm trying to get more involved in the local scene but time really isn't on my side in that respect. It takes a lot of effort to keep up with everything.

I've also become completely obsessed with Doctor Who, and perhaps even more so with Torchwood. I live and breathe Whoniverse now. It's a lovely place to occupy, much much better than reality. Even if it means I make stupid jokes no one else understands [Always take a banana to a party, Watch out for the disinfectant etc etc] and find innuendo in everything. I'm completely going out of my mind waiting for the new season of Torchwood, all my friends can attest to this.

But yes. This concludes the superficial summary of where exactly I'm at right now. Perhaps I'll even start posting actual creative work on here now. That would make a nice change...
