I am delighted to send you my warm congratulations on successfully completing your degree programme. You will receive an unofficial degree transcript detailing you results over the next few days.

So that's done. I'm glad to hear my dissertation didn't completely bomb, though I don't find out what my score is. Well.. nah. I cribbed too much from secondary sources. Bah. I don't care. At least it's not fiction, then I would really be worried.

I hear that NANOWRIMO is in town. *breaks down laughing* Let me explain. Every year I read the announcements about this and wonder why the hell they chose the busiest academic month (at least for me it's always the worst) to set this in, ensuring that I'll have zero time to do it. But now, I have all the time in the world. Except that it's too late. I already have 50,000 (53,000, to be exact) words of a novel, though I don't remember when I started, but it wasn't straightaway after I finished the dissertation, which was, oh wow, 5 weeks ago. So... I did this in a month? One month?! Can you tell that I have no life? So, the point is: I already did NANOWRIMO. So now that I finally have time to join in, it's a moot point. Oops. Whatever. I wasn't going to wait, anyway. Chances are I'll still be writing this by the deadline.

In other news.... I have no other news. This is my life. Movie watching is distracting me. Yeah.

Thank you! I thought it'd take them longer to grade it, but I'm glad it didn't.

Congrats! On both the dissertation and already having 50,000 words :D

Yeah, I've never done NANO because November is always, without fail, the month that I am absolutely bogged down with work. I've always thought that they must have a thing against college students or something. And I really want to do Script Frenzy this April, but then again... busy academic month... :/

Thanks! I can't believe I've got so much done so fast.

Script Frenzy is in April? Okay see, I'm not suspecting malicious intent, but someone really needs to change those dates. Those are the worst months ever for a college student.
