Finals?!?!?!?

March 26, 2008 at 10:39 am (Dear Diary)

Dear Diary,

Oh my goodness, my finals at my Muggle school were horrible!!!  I got my grades back yesterday and, to be honest, I’m a little disappointed.  I got two A’s, a B and a C.  The C was totally unexpected.  The B was in the class that I thought I was going to get an Incomplete for, so I’m not complaining there.

I’m very excited to have a break, because it means I’ll get to actually start the socks with the yarn from my spoiler!  Neat!

Final House Homework

March 18, 2008 at 5:15 pm (HSKS4)

I hate to admit it, but I’m glad this homework is almost over…  I’m knee deep in Muggle finals right now, I’ll have to take one incomplete, and next term is shaping up to be almost as unpleasant.  I’m glad next Hogwarts term isn’t until almost the end of my next Muggle one.  I’ve had a great time, but because I’m getting burned out on Muggle school, I’m awfully cranky and because we ran out of money, I had to go a week without antidepressants, causing me to snap at people and be more moody than normal.  To those I may have snapped at, I’m sorry.  My tax refund came and I bought my medication, and I should be back to happy person soon.  In the meantime, this is IT for my posting this week – I apologize, but for some reason studying needs to take precedence.

    My Owl Arrived!

    March 1, 2008 at 1:06 pm (Dear Diary, HSKS4)

    Dear Diary,

    After having a pretty horrible day yesterday and being swamped with homework again today, I’m pretty excited to report that I have gotten an owl from my spoilee today!  Talk about a pick-me-up!  Violet le Veela was awesome enough to note that I’m a brand new beginning knitter, so she sent three books, some self-storing scissors, a set of Knitting/Crochet Project Kards, and one of the awesome sheep tape measures (I’ve been drooling over them lately, so that’s pretty darn exciting) in addition to the COOLEST bronze bag with blue drawstrings, some seriously cool looking sock yarn (I think it’s self striping!) and some beautiful Crystal Palace bamboo needles.  I’ll be posting pictures in a page on the sidebar momentarily.

    Thanks, Violet!!!  This is wonderful!!!  Now it’ll just be hard to not start playing with the socks right away – I still have homework to do!!!
