When I should be writing reports or getting into my course readings, I’m browsing through blogs and picking out all the Pretty Things… (pictures from leluvette, It’s Janine, & Modcloth)

Last night, I let myself get talked into changing out of my pyjamas- which I had put on in anticipation of calling it a day after streaming and enjoying a  selection of videos online, my usual weekend routine- and going to Baqt.

I complained and complained about having to come back to school early. And complained even more when I found out that the Social Work department has us doing practicals from today already! I went to bed with the most excruciating pain in my right temple: my first serious tension headache for 2012. Wow. While it’sContinue reading “Wits O-Week- The End of Me”
