Various Pictures of the past 3 weeks.

Hokay, so firstly, there are pictures of our now furnished apartment on the updated Apartment Pictures Page. Secondly, here’s a selection of pictures from our first 3 weeks. Some, I’m just not going to bother posting ‘cos they’re just not the sort of thing you show your mother over the internet. Some, however, I will. [...]

“Gmail is an ocean. An email, but a drop…”

Righty! So, we’re up as far as the, like, millionth year of being in Boston… Seriously, it feels like I’ve been here so bloody long. It’s ridiculous to think that it’s not even 2 weeks since we’ve arrived. We’ve done so much and had to do so much that it’s bizarre to think that we’r [...]

The weekend

Right, so, it’s Tuesday now, and I’m trying to remember things I did 4 or 5 days ago, so it might not be the most accurate, but it’s better than nothing.
Friday
We got up at stupid O’ Clock (like, 7.30… I know!) and checked out of the hotel. Side note: We were sorta offered jobs [...]

T-Minus 2 Days

So, we have today and tomorrow and that’s it. How terrified am I? Very. How excited am I? A bit…
We got the apartment confirmed on Saturday, which was somewhat exciting. It’s now definitely ours. We’re living in an area of Cambridge (which is where Harvard is) called Inman Square, and the bus stop is literally [...]

Dr. Kawashima, you crazy floating head, you!

When I’m ridiculously tired, and after 2 pints of lucozade in about an hour, and am just home from post-exam clubbing, my brain age in Brain Training on Mum’s DS goes down by 3 or 4 years. My current brain age is 27.  Who’d’a thunk it?
In other news, today was the FINAL day of exams [...]

Yarg.

Well, the end is near… We’re just one exam away from being finished with 3rd year. It’s now 9 days until we get our Boston thang on. Am I terrified? Yes. Am I studying? No.
Clearly not.
I seem to have had much more difficulty getting myself to study this year than previously. Maybe it’s the lack of a [...]

I suppose that’s what you get for being pregnant…

So, got an email last night telling me that my embassy interview is on the 20th of March at 9am. Fair enough, I thought. Then, today, I realised that the 20th of March is a Thursday. The day after is Good Friday-so even if our passports with visas are sorted in time, they can’t be [...]

Examfest 08

Today was day 1 of our third year exams. Seems strange that I started blogging on non-Disneyness a whole school year ago. Third year has gone way too fast. Scarily so. And now here we are all getting ready to go to Bosotn. Creepin’ me out no end that is.
So, day 1 went well, I [...]

Commerce. A stereotype unto themselves.

So, here I am, all smug having 2 hours of study done this morning, and rather entertained by the guy sitting next to me.
I arrived into the library this morning for 9 (cos I’m so dedicated and whatnot) and found a grand spot on Q+1. There were notes on the desk next to me for [...]

7 Days

So, here I am, and I’m terrified.
It’s now 7 days until the exams start and what do I have to show for the month off? Dates 12 rules, Gaye Kiely’s big DBMS diagram, The Balanced Scorecard and a smattering of other useless shite that I know will likely not be on the exam. Basically, I’ve [...]
