And then they give you a reason and its like
did that bird just become a llama with a beak?
I believe the correct term is baby hippogriff

I saw the ad for YouTube Comedy Week on TV and my head can’t deal!!
TV should stay on TV. and the Internet should stay on the Internet
How else am I going to convince myself that I have variety in my life when I’ve made the supreme effort of closing my internet browser, vacating the office chair, and actively decided to instead deposit myself on the sofa in front of a very extremerly different shiny quadrilateral?!
That’s it…
It’s done.
Over
First year gone
Goshh.
Well….
Well, now I’m just waiting for feedback so not quite free yet and there’s still a while until it’s officially Summer, but I’ve survived my last deadlines, and I didn’t go completely insane (though there were a few moments at the beginning of the year), and my time is really my own :)
Even though I’m pretty good at avoiding regular work, when the situation starts getting desperate I’ve worked out how to sacrifice the correct things and prioritise effectively. However, my reduction in effective procrastination has plummeted so low, I’m now extremely behind on important activities such as Dr Who, Youtube and Socialising.
I have quite a lot of grand Summer project plans, and grand Summer travel plans, and now it’s just a matter of putting it all into action.
But, with so much Internet to catch up on…am I going to make a start on any of it?
I think it’s time to make a list.
Tomorrow.
UNIT X: Side-note
My Dad grew up in Manchester so asked him if he’d had any Hulme experiences, bring the project closer to home.
I was expecting a no, unless you were from there, we’ve mostly heard that people tried to avoid Hulme. Except, he said as a student he had actually gone there a few times! (not for the…
I was thinking about the conflict between what was wanted of Hulme and what it became during its Crescent era, 1960s-90s.
The community seem to be trying really hard to rebuild their reputation and unlike the 1960s rebuild, where an objective outsider dictated what they thought best, Hulme is being allowed to fix itself by the people who know it best.
It made me think about other influences which try to shape our lives through their cliches.
I wonder what would happen if we took the American suburbian tradition of fresh-squeezed lemonade and took it to the cheerfully dreary streets of Hulme… would 21st century Hulme embrace or reject someone else’s ideal?
Editing (aka Deleting Stuff Which Would Be Seen As Insignificant) from my uni blog, but I think there’s still some worthwhile points so they’re just going to find a new home

We’re so nearly finished but I feel like everything is about to go wrong!
Just in case you were worried…it didn’t :)
Now just tidying up my uni blog for submission
I’m kind of obsessed with the people who were in my group. They’re all so cool and I think we all worked really hard. Feeling pretty fortunate that it worked out this way. And that it worked out
(ps in other news: I found out how to reblog myself YAY :)

I’m not sure how I feel about this, looks very different to how I imagined it in my head
Still looking forward to seeing it

The Orthodox Jukebox: Overture
Welcome to The Orthodox Jukebox! I’m Talia, and I’ve been meaning to write about the random shows, open mics, and concerts that I perform in and/or attend as a member of the crowd. Hence, “The Orthodox Jukebox” is now something that exists on the internet - thanks to my hallmate Kenzy for the…
My friends are amazing. I feel so lucky to have them in my life
These shiny new books were delivered to my bed this morning (Yes, literally to my bed. The package arrived while I was still sleeping and Rosianna was kind enough to bring it to me). Can’t wait to start reading!
These are my favourite books of EVER!!
