'fraid i'm going to have to disagree with you all about troy. i managed to overlook cardboardio bloom and actually found myself enjoying the film. (apart from the fact that the sun kept rising in the west. which was just downright annoying.) and i am reliably informed (by somebody who has read more then just a couple of chapters of the iliad) that it is actually surprisingly faithful to the text. i found some bits honestly moving. and achilles/patroclus was not edited out so much as made subtextual - a gift to the slashers, i'm sure. and there was naked brad pitt, to which i was just like 'uhhh... whatever. oh look! pretty petulant slave girl!'

in other news, last day in uniform today. got water bombed a couple of times but nothing too serious. and then we spelled out 'we love mr royall' with our bodies, taking pics on yasmine's digital cam, to make him a goodbye card.

oh well, off to bedfordshire...
