... until graduation

Words cannot describe how excited I am. 2012 is looking like it's going to be an absolutely fabulous year, if this first month has been anything to go by! Already been one hell of a bumper-car hectic ride, whether it's booking a trip to Paris

, the birth of a new baby cousin

, applying for my Early Modern Masters

, or signing for a house with my boyfriend!
Here is the small to-do list before graduation:

Write a 6,000 word essay on why Virginia appealed to 17C Englishmen, and how information about the new venture was communicated to them. So far my notes comprise of lots of intellectually-inspiring smiley faces.

Write a 3,000 word document on a primary source.

will require hot chocolate and Baileys...

Write a 9,000 word dissertation on the portrayals of Elizabeth I as the Virgin Queen. I now hate the following words with every fiber of my being: virginity, iconography, typology, and anything else ending in -ology.


A Glitter Not Bitter 21st birthday party. Going to be more sparkly than Edward Cullen! Mwaahahaaaaa!

Complete Final Fantasy X.

Finish the novel I started for NaNoWriMo. It's getting there!
