*DANCES AROUND WITH MUCH GLEE OMG*

For it is Wednesday and I have a car and a computer that works. The relief? Is a thing of beauty.

...and man, did the screen grow hugely or has livejournal etc just squashed everything up so that they take up less space on my screen or something? Bizarre.

I was up until 4am this morning, doing a history assignment. As a result, I slept through my alarm and missed my first two classes. *pulls face* And I have a long thing to do on Hamlet's soliloquies by tomorrow morning and its already after midnight and omg, I want to sleep. Um. This whole working in the evening thing is proving to be a royal pain in the ass. I will have to defer the homework.

...of course, this presents a whole new set of problems. If I don't give my teachers some decent written work soon, they can't write a reference for me for Oxford. Applications have to be in in two weeks, at the very outside.

...this is me so trying not to panic.

EDIT: OK, so its awesome to have the computer back. It now as 153 spare GB on it, which is of teh cool. As I suspected would happen, everything's been wiped. The only thing that I object to is that that appears to include Microsoft Word, Works and iTunes. I can re-download itunes easily enough...but, Word? I don't think I have discs for that. Wtf?

How was I to know that she'd been shuffled before?

I cannot stop listening to AC/DC. This is a thing made of cool even if it means that I am not. Ha! *rocks out*

Does anyone know if its possible to recover the music I've paid for off of itunes? Like, if I email them and tell them my account name, they should be able to give me back the tunes I've already paid for, right? I bloody hope so. At the moment, I can't put any new songs on my ipod because it'll wipe all the ones I've got on there already. I don't mind having to reload all my CD's but I can't bear the idea of losing all the individual songs I've nicked off people over the last year and won't be able to get back, you know what I mean? Drag.

Also have to say as a general aside - one of the texts I'm going to be studying in English is 'Enduring Love' by Ian McEwan. I had it read the day after I was given it and...yeah. I want to see the movie because it's supposed to be brilliant (and hello Daniel Craig) but the book itself is...odd. Brilliant themes in it that weave in interesting ways but I can't help feeling some of it should have been played out a little more to make it more convincing. And there's something about McEwan's style that really gets my back up. I read 'Atonement' a few weeks ago and while I enjoyed it and can see that its an amazing piece of writing (and I truly hated the little girl at the start of the book, to the point where I could hardly bear to read her. Which says something about the skill of the writing), there's still something I find annoying and/or uncomfortable about the way he writes. Maybe its just his subject matter, I don't know. But its weird - I feel I should love his work, but I don't.

And now, I go to write an essay on non-turnout for voting in general elections. My joy knows no bounds. *pulls face*
