STUCK From roisini in The lady doth protest too much, methinks (7 days old)

I am so very stuck on this bit of Latin. The annoying thing about Latin is that a lot of the time, I know what all the words mean, but they still don't make sense put together. It's the rearranging of… more

RIGHT! From roisini in The lady doth protest too much, methinks (10 days old)

Student Rant #1 From roisini in The lady doth protest too much, methinks (40 days old)

Oh bugger. Teaching starts on Thursday and I need to run to Blackwell's on Charing Cross Road to grab my textbooks. Buying the said textbooks will mean I can't afford to eat for the next 3 weeks, but … more

Discounts and Free Stuff! Hooray! From roisini in Haydn Seek (41 days old)

Jacko! From roisini in The lady doth protest too much, methinks (136 days old)

Oh Various Swear Words From roisini in The lady doth protest too much, methinks (136 days old)

My lovely boyfriend Alex is going to Faliraki on Saturday night and his phone's just exploded. He can't afford to buy a new one, and so he'll just be without a phone. As it's Faliraki, and three 18 ye… more

Modernism and Tonality From roisini in Haydn Seek (154 days old)

2 weeks!.. From roisini in The lady doth protest too much, methinks (155 days old)

...until I finish my exams! I actually cannot wait, not because I have any deep-seated loathing of 6th form, but because I get to read/write whatever I want over the summer. I haven't written in so lo… more

Music Journalism From roisini in Haydn Seek (155 days old)

I'm not really sure if brass band music counts as exactly 'classical', but my old teacher/conductor has asked me to write a review for the local paper about a concert his band are doing. It's part of … more

Pros and Cons of Summer From roisini in The lady doth protest too much, methinks (158 days old)

yes, my second long post in one day From roisini in The lady doth protest too much, methinks (255 days old)

My leg hurts a bit. I just used my new epilator and actually it doesn't hurt as much as I thought it would. The turning thing is really scary the first time you turn it on and try and make yourself pu… more

*sigh* From roisini in The lady doth protest too much, methinks (255 days old)

I'm not even going to bother detailing the reasons of the fight Alex and I have just had. Suffice it to say that I don't think I've been that upset since I was little. He's said sorry now, as have I, … more

Slight Valentines Depression, Despite A Lovely Date From roisini in The lady doth protest too much, methinks (267 days old)

Ugghh From roisini in The lady doth protest too much, methinks (278 days old)

Yawn. I don't know why I'm so bloody tired these days. Every morning I wake up to see my alarm clock happily telling me its 7.35 and I've overslept again. I think I should probably change the radio st… more

Whose mistake was Richard Dawkins... From roisini in The lady doth protest too much, methinks (279 days old)

...God's, or evolution's? I think I should really stop reading the paper. It just makes me angry. This time there is an appalling article headlined "Half of UK population 'believe in creationism' ". … more

Quite gobsmacking From roisini in The lady doth protest too much, methinks (280 days old)

Now there's a good word. Gobsmacking. I just saw in the paper that a nurse who is a Christian has been suspended for "attempting to force her Christian faith on others". The woman had merely offere… more

Tchaikovsky and Christmas From roisini in Haydn Seek (322 days old)

RIGHT From roisini in The lady doth protest too much, methinks (323 days old)

I am DEFINITELY back now. That last dormant phase wasn't even shaken off by the "blog.co.uk misses you" email that should have shamed me back into action. The truth is, I've been shockingly stressed r… more

Bluddy L From roisini in The lady doth protest too much, methinks (376 days old)

I've neglected this site shamefully. It's mainly because - dare I say it - there's more action on LiveJournal so I usually write on there. And I've been massively stressed what with university applica… more

Hoorah From roisini in Haydn Seek (465 days old)

Despite my terrible aural skills, I managed a merit in my grade 8. I know I should preferably have done better and a distinction would be good for music college, but I actually don't care. The relief … more
