Uh, realist with a side dressing of optimism. I try to see the best in things, but I live in reality.

Haven't updated lately. But there's a reason Livejournal has the word "live" in it- because to update, you've got to have a life. Which I do not. The little life I did have has been sucked away by school.

The Big Read reckons that the average adult has only read 6 of the top 100 books they've printed. Well, let's see.
1) Look at the list and bold those you have read.
2) Italicize those you intend to read.
3) Reprint this list in your own LJ so we can try and track down these people who've read 6 and force books upon them.

Have also underlined the ones I've TRIED to read, but couldn't finish for one reason or another. Normally boredom.

Welllll, above the average, but still not exactly anything to brag about. Will try to remedy that. Well, maybe I won't start with the Bible or the Complete Works of Shakespeare.

As of November 2nd, 11PM, I am over the 3-day minimum at two days. As of November 3rd, 2AM, I've written 7620 words, which is more than the four day minimum of 6668! Go me! This is good, because there's no way I'm going to be able to do as much as I've been doing this weekend after I go back to school.

Wow, I haven't updated in *forever*. Oh, well. This place is going to be NaNoWriMo central from now on, so it's going to be more active.

Looooong way to go.

Sorry I haven't updated in so long. It's just... well, there's not much of interest going on in my life right now. BUT if you want to keep up with me- I'm always on Twitter, updating about little bits of nothing (usually Doctor Who-related, mind you), add me. Or get Twitter if you don't already have it- it's pretty awesome.

Exam went very well, if I should say so myself!! It's the only exam where I've ever had to ask for additional paper because I ran out of room. And I still had time left at the end (okay, I rushed the last question, but whatevs).

I wish it was Who day, though. REALLY, REALLY. Also, I want (  That Spoiler That Everyone Knows About Anyway But Oh Well Better Spoiler-Tag anyway for those who have awakened from their eight-month coma )

Have my first proper GCSE exam today! It's worth 50% of my final mark, so wish me luck. I need it!

I have officially left school, dudes! Except for exams, obviously, but day-by-day, I am done.

I may or may not have cried my eyes out. Goddamn my inability to watch other people cry.

I haven't updated in a while, so I did a pointless meme instead of revising for my GCSEs.

In other news, OMG, how good was Doctor Who on Saturday? Not just Unexpected Character Arrivals or anything- the actual episode was great. Okay, the plot wasn't exactly the most deep thing ever, but how awesome was Donna? Anyway, it was very good and I wish it was Saturday already!

I've been wanting to do this for ages. So I am.
