current song: James Morrison//This Boy
*Pokes
sister_stick* Since you insisted...
1. New Year was... kind of boring, actually. I messed around on my computer, and briefly removed myself from it to go upstairs to the sitting room with a glass of milk and toast with Mum and Dad at midnight. The were watching The Hours, which I am slightly annoyed about, because I would've liked to've watched it with them, but they never told me. *Pouts*
2. Lookit:
^__^
3. I have resolved to make no resolutions. Ever. (*Deadpans* Haha ~ I crack myself up.)
4. NejiNaruHina is addictive, but there is nowhere near enough of it. I'm writing one at the moment (or trying to), and I want to call it Keishi, which is the best Hinata-word ever, but it doesn't really with the premise of the fic, so... I guess I have to find something else.
5. I made a fic-journal, so as to avoid ficspamming
sister_stick any longer. (Appreciate it, Bry.) I will not, however, be moving any of my old fics there, merely because I can't be bothered. It's called
nightjar_fics.
6. On a similar note, my dry-up of inspiration to write is officially over. I've signed up for the Unusual Adoption Challenge, and I've already got two drabbles to write as prizes for the
potent_serpent Christmas challenge, and there is also the aforementioned NejiNaruHina AU, as well as what I like to call the big-damn-crack!AU-of-DOOM, which
twins_randomity has been helping me to plan. (Happyhappyhappy. Things to sink my teeth into.)
7.
potent_serpent Christmas challenge! There's less than a week left to go over and guess who wrote each drabble, and whoever gets it right can claim a prize-drabble (which doesn't even have to be HP-related!), so make sure you participate if you haven't already!
8. I am retaking two of my AS-History modules on the Friday after next. I really ought to start revising, but I can't be bothered. I also have an essay to write (again, for History), as well as various things to read before school starts again on the 9th. Bleurgh.
9. I now have money! I intend to spend most of it on manga, but I also got the new James Morrison album (which is awesome).
10. UCAS update: I've been offered a place at Aberystwyth, as long as I get 240 UCAS tariff points (whatever they are), and Aberdeen and Exeter have both written to say that they're considering my application. I've got an interview at Lampeter in February, which is both unexpected and nerve-wracking.
11. My Christmas card from Pat and Marged was in Welsh. *Is bewildered* It took me a while to figure out what it said.
12. Lethargia is annoying. 'Nuff said.
And incidentally, Bry, when I put this through the LJ-spellchecker, one of the alternatives for "Nuff" was "Luff" *giggles*.
