Going to edit this in the first post, but putting the info here before I change it...

New essay deadlines: I have done a swap with my colonial essay that was due 28th of this month (this one is now due 13th June) and swapped my american lit essay (which was due 13th June) back to its original essay deadline of 9th May.

I am actually currently sat in my university library (been in here since 11:45am, it is now 8:36pm) Apart from an hours break I have been working pretty solidly... although i did just get distracted by orangutan pictures!

Today I have finished my postcolonial presentation prep. And started research for two essays.

But anyway, I'm staying until 10pm.

Thank goodness. Now for the easy part. Opening paragraph, thesis statement, blah, blah, blah, closing paragraph, on to the next one!

You are done wonderful and now the light is coming through the end of the tunnel. Sweet sleep and relaxation when you are done.

Just popping on to say hello, Kinda haven't really done much since the last message as I've come back up to York for my easter holidays. I am working slowly, but my lovely mum who is off work sick, keeps distracting me.

In other news: I'm finally starting to put weight back on and have a decentish attentionspan!
