As requested, a blog post. The time is 3:25am and I am currently on campus working on a documentary that is due in 6hrs. I am going to have to wake up 3hrs. I debated not going to bed, but I think I'll take a nap. And I'm going to buy myself a large iced cap before I get on the bus in 4hrs. One of my group members filmed us working and it may just be my favourite video clip. More later.
Also, the PC frozen lasagna is notably better than the PC frozen indian butter chicken.

I'm Going Abroad!

I'm going to study abroad! Well, I've applied...to be able to apply to study abroad. I've just submitted my forms to (hopefully!) study at the University of Leeds during 2016. It's pretty exciting. My friend (who has also applied to Leeds) and I were looking at google maps today of Britain and looking up places that we wanted to visit when if we go. So far, I want to go to the Museum of Brands, Packaging & Advertising, The Sherlock Holmes Museum and Madame Tussauds London. :)
Also, check out this cool art installation (by Paul Cummins) at the Tower of London to commemorate fallen soldiers:

"Each of the 888,246 blooms [which are ceramic] represents a British or Colonial military death during the First World War, which began a century ago." Really makes a statement, doesn't it? 

Lest we forget.

Homecooked Meals For the Win

I feel bad for the students who are living off fast food and premade frozen meals because I just had a PC indian butter chicken frozen meal.

And.
It.
Sucked.

I was supposed to have spaghetti and meatballs, but I forgot to take the sauce out of the freezer, so I had this frozen dinner that I only bought cause it was on sale. And how badly I would have preferred the spaghetti and meatballs, you'll never know.
This weekend has been incredibly unproductive in terms of school work. Although I have made big progress on my various study abroad forms. I've decided that my first choice school is the University of Leeds. I'm really excited, now that most of the stress of all the forms is mostly out of the way. Also, I can't get over how fast time is moving. Like, another week is gone already. Each day comes and is it's own, but then BAM it's the weekend again and I'm just over here like damn where did the time go. And I keep looking at my list of things that I need to do and how I'm ignoring every single one of them. I'm pretty sure at about 8pm tonight I'll suddenly get this panic and I'll work till midnight (hopefully. I'm kind of banking on that happening so that today isn't completely unproductive).

Benedict Cumberbatch Is Engaged (Yes, I Heard)

So Benedict Cumberbatch announces his engagement and all I get is, and I quote,
"And all the Cumberbatch fans sighed with sadness..."
"I guess you will have to set your sights on someone else now that BC is taken :)"
"Sorry hon. Ha!"
Geez louise
Who do you think I am? While I may have initially, I don't look at Benedict that way. And besides, he's 38. In case you hadn't realized, I'm 19. He's quite literally twice my age.
And for the record:
Fans are happy

And I love that it was announced in the papers ☺

I can't wait for him to have kids :)

Posting this is very self-centered and materialistic (but hey, at least I'm aware it's self-centered and materialistic, right?)

Who Needs Productivity?

I have done nothing academically productive this evening and I feel really sucky about it. So I'm going to blog.

If you're looking for some new music, might I direct you to Hozier and his debut self-titled album. He's got an indie rock, soul/blues sound. I really like his album (it's the only I've been listening to recently).

272. Favourite picture of your idol.
(I'm going to call them my favourite role model/person rather than an idol)

(also remember when I lost it over this?)

273. Something I'm talented at.
Painting? Doodling.

274. 5 things that make me happy
1. Completing things before they need to be done
2. Watching movies
3. Talking to my friends
4. Mentally allowing myself to do something (ex. "You can eat a cookie once you're done this paper")
5. Finding new music that I like

As if my english professor wasn't awesome enough already, I get an email from her saying our quiz is cancelled and we get 100% on it. Sweet!
Also, I've lost my October. If anybody's seen it, I would greatly appreciate its return.
