Voila!

And I'm spent.

I have officially survived my first semester of my Publishing diploma. What a ride!! I have oscillated between absolutely absorbing and loving the material and crying my eyes out at the intensity of the coursework. But I am so glad I didn't quit and can now look forward to a well deserved week off and heading back to NZ for some much needed family/friends/relaxation time. I can't wait to see my pets and just hang out with my bad self by the fire, drinking milo and reading.

Sigh. It's the simple things, it truly is.

Elaborate Procrastination

This is really an overly elaborate way of procrastinating from the task at hand...which is my editing assignment. BUT I have been wanting to start a blog for a long now so I feel justified in doing so just as I don't have the time to do such things. Isn't that always the best time?

I really hope I have the German right...will have to check that with my own German! She will either be astounded at my intellect (thanks Google) or be disgusted by my translation (again, Google's error).

Over and out - I need to make a start on this draft letter.

PS. If Dumbledore dies in the the sixth Harry Potter book (I don't know the endings, don't tell me!) I will cry. Snape. Snape. Severus Snape. I'm of two minds about that character...
