murr. slight financial cock-up leaves me over my overdraft limit for a few days, so please don't invite me to do anything that costs any money / call in debts as I have a fiver to last me until tuesday (yes, I know I could go to the bank and sort it out today, but I'm being eaten by the revision demon).

apparently there are people in the world who didn't know this, so just in case you're one of them:

I am taking finals at the moment because Oxford hates Psychologists

am not feeling particularly sparkly. today I'm not going LARPing because I have to revise. and my laptop is more than a little screwed. and did I mention the part where I haven't got any money and have to take finals?

other things, also, not quite articulable in this journal - if they're articulable at all.

am just feeling a little joyless at the moment. normal service will be resumed soon, I am sure.

for just a few hours after 4pm on Monday, between the end of my exams and the beginning of Wyrd Sisters rehearsals... OK, so I have to learn lines for half of the play in that time, and I'll only have £5 to celebrate with, but for those 4 hours I can pretend I haven't sold my life to commitments other than My Own Happiness (inc. that of those I care about).

ETA: Katy brought me muffins. She is a Good Person. She is Robbie Ross tipping his hat to Wilde as he's led through the jeering crowd.

Hey, sweetie. Don't miss out on stuff that will only happen once. I can lend you money! That's probably not what you want to hear - but I'm here if you need me. Best of luck with finals. Cup of tea? Tx

*hugs*

It'll be sorted soon, then at least you have enjoyable things to stress over!

Hang on, FINALS?

So next year at the end of Trinity what will you be taking?

the other 75% of my finals. mathmos have finals at the end of Trinity of their second year, but psychologists get the earliest finals of any subject.

Will happily lend you celebratory money/buy you drinks if that would do any good. We deserve to celebrate!

Almost over now...48 hours and 45 minutes to go! xx

Are people meeting you from your last exam? I can't tell whether I should encourage people to do that, or if it's kind of excessive as these aren't final-finals...

Anyhoo, I was going to propose post-exam drinking in the Mitre, for entirely selfish reasons of its being Oscar Wilde's favourite pub, if it would please you to join?

May well join. I think I have some meeters though so I'll need to check what they want to do. But quite probably. And also Revue of Busness later on for cocktails and Merman fun!

Oh yeah... and also Oh no! :-(

Which reminds me. Really ought to do some costuming at some point. Yes...

I'm sorry I can't meet you, honey, I will be in a rehearsal and then a tute....
I will fix something for you. Might have to just be a hug, but it will be from my heart. You're great. You're gonna be fine.
Keep going, almost there!

Is that your Smile account overdraft?

Good luck with your exams, and as for the hectic-ness of it all, I say just go with the flow!

You should definately encourage people to meet you after any kind of finals, and demand they bring champagne (or the cheap equivelent which oddbins has on discount).

I am being entirely hypocritical unfortunately as work forbids me from coming to Oxford on Monday. By the time you have final finals perhaps I will have a job with room to take days off for such purposes. Until such time, I fear I am a crap mother, my dear. Perhaps your oules father will be more obliging, since he is in Oxford?
