Unemployment

[raven]

You know what is not a good sign?

Having a GCSE tomorrow...

...and having used up the 33-hour battery life of an mp3 player in one day.

On the one hand, this doesn't bother me much, as all it means is that I have to charge it sooner than expected.

On the other hand, it bothers me exceedingly because a) I have a GCSE tomorrow and b) shouldn't this be theoretically impossible?

I will admit I am slightly obsessive when it comes to music. But, um, blah.

Anyway. I have nearly finished topic four (Nazi rule in Germany). All I need to do are the last couple of pages on the actions taken to prevent unemployment. And then I need to read over America whilst safe in the knowledge that although I revised it thoroughly a week ago I can't rememeber a word of it.

And on a completely unrelated point, I just read on the Dope that Gregory Peck died today. Isn't that strange - Atticus Finch not living forever?

I think I'll go and watch M*A*S*H now.

M*A*S*H is always very helpful, when it comes to revising. :P

Oh, yes. It was "The Interview" and taught me so much about the history of America in Depression.

Some comedian somewhere apparently said, as things began to stir up with North Korea having "Weapons of Mass Destruction" and all that, "Ah, Korea, a country everyone knows about thanks to a sit com."
It was far wittier than that, this is just my much-later interpretation.
I'm reading Catch-22 right now. Speaking of war, and history, and entertainment and stuff. It's interesting, so far. There keep being bits that make me think of other things in such a good way. I ALSO, for the record, finished reading Good Omens, and am totally in love with it. I would have taken in back to the library but I am making EVERYONE I know read it. Bwa ha ha...
I need to go and see if my brother brought me math and chemistry textbooks. This comment is practically an e-mail. Well, faretheewell!

Hey, I like comments-that-are-practically-emails! And because I heard the little you-have-email noise, it means I can stop revising. Again. Exam is tomorrow. Oops.

And Good Omens - did you see you see the slash? Did you? I've got to hear your opinion of that book - I fell in love with it too.

And those maths and chemistry textbooks - is it a good or a bad thing if he brought them?

I haven't read the slash yet; I ended up falling asleep. Now, 15 or 16 delicious hours of sleep later, I have to go to work. SLASH! EEe! I think I'm a fag-hag.
