Just looked at my essay title and I'm going to be cautiously optimistic about the outcome.
Thankfully the one, count them ONE, lecture I went to for this module was pretty much centered around this concept so at least I have notes on the topic. Even if they were convoluted by my tiredness during the lecture, it did start at 9am, and my boredom at the monotonous lecturer.
However my optimism comes from the books I borrowed from the Uni library after my lecture this morning, somehow hopefully I'm hoping the information contained within them somehow seeps into my brain because unfortunatly the Crusades seems to have attracted historians with a penchant for VERY long words and elaborate sentances.
Anywho, my lecture this morning was actually interesting, it was all about the ways people in the Early-modern period say themselves, in respect to religion and nationalism. It really made me want to go to the seminar, which starts in 5 minutes, however I've got that aforementioned essay to do. Hopefully I'll be able to attend the alternative seminar later in the week, as its all about the proposed relationship between the rise of Protestantism and Capitalism.
In other news I have yet to acquisition my copy of Casino Royale, instead I snookered my father into giving me a lift to ASDA later tonight to obtain it. Hopefully this shall give me enough time to write at least SOME of my essay, before I become distracted by the movie, which will require my full and un-divided attention. See now why can't I be THAT enthusiastic about my essays!
For some reason ever since I placed my myspace address on here my friend request have mainly been comprised of people like this. Now I really don't care if you have a pretty picture if you don't message/comment me first and prove you have at least a shred of personality I'm going to go ahead and presume that the add was sent by a bot. However this has not dissuaded me from having my myspace on here, if by some chance someone finds this blog and likes my random rantings thats probably going to be the best place to get in contact, and oh did I meantion I'm also a comment whore?
I also created a DeviantART last night, its pretty much just got the four comics I created for RaNdOm PiCtUrES a while back on it. However I'm convinced more art shall be added to it in the near future, just as soon as I find the motivation to download Photoshop, hell anything will be more professional then MSPaint right now! Though you've got to love the pixel art when you zoom right in on it! Yeah I'm a geek... and 80s style pixel art is pretty much the extent of my artistic abilities so far.
Oh yeah it also started snowing today, its either a late or a VERY early winter! I guess thats what global-warming does to the world!
Ok so maybe the snow wasn't quite THAT bad, but hey I wish it was! I love snow, I just wish it wasn't so damn cold! Granted it does give me a chance to wear my hood without feeling like a hoodlum, however the limitations of fingerless gloves become truly apparent during a snowball fight.
I also added a list of my weeks most listened to artist at the side of here, courtesy of last.fm, unfortunatly this list doesn't include the songs I listen to on my iPod would be interesting to see if that list would change considering my fondness of making On-the-go playlists, hmmm...
However I shall have to get back to my essay, which will most likely take long into the night, or possibly the morning depending on how active my brain is feeling.
Impulse
Hopelessly hopeful
