Drifting somewhere in the vast

I will hand in my thesis tomorrow. It's printed out, everything's done and ready and now I only need to wait. Apart from that, I think I'm falling into a bit of a post-bachelor-hole, because I'm just really, really tired and not happy at all. I just want to sleep and forget all about it. Oh, but that might be because I still have to present my thesis in front of an undefined number of co-workers, because my teamleader wants to torture me said so. No, he's actually quite nice, but this is a thing that will keep me in a state of panic anxiety and do-not-want until it's over. Until then, I won't be able to truly relax or feel relieved. Bugger.

What I did do to spoil myself a little and get into a better mood: going on a huge Amazon-shopping spree.

Destined for an early Grave is actually a Tauschticket order, but it arrived on the same day, so. And the Eagle of the Ninth chronicles, because they are clearly the in-thing to read for slash-fans at the moment and I am so fucking excited for the movie you have no idea. Ahem. ;)

 

58 / 80 pages. 73% done!

... which is ... okay. I think. (I'm still speculating on at least 5 pages more once I have added loads of screencaps and pictures to the text.) But this is not a bachelor post, no worries. I just want to keep track of where I am with my page count.^^

( Dead Like Me )

My current emotional status: impatient. Monday, ergo: HP 7.1, can't come fast enough. Also slightly anxious and chaotic. My mind is all over the place, because there are various things and projects I'm involved in and then there's the bachelor thesis.

My current NaNo-status. I don't think I'm going to make the full amount I set myself as a goal, but maybe two thirds. Which is okay, I guess? *sighs* At least I have some social media literature now.

My current fandom-status: I saw Glee (this morning, stuffed into the time between getting up and going to work, because I don't have the time otherwise), yes, but I don't have much to say about it either way. I'm not a big fan of Gwyneth Paltrow, because I think she's a boring actress, but she was alright. I just wished the kids had sung more and not just her and Mr. Shue.

... I'm sorry this journal has become even more uninteresting than before. I'll try to cut down the whining, but I guess I need a place where I can post my progress.

Yoko Kanno is a musical genius. 'Nuff said.

Each time I watch the Deathly Hallows trailer I get those goddamn goosebumps and the picture of burning!Hogwarts tugs at my heartstrings. It's ridiculous. The movie's probably not even that good, but just the fact that it's out in a few weeks makes me go "Gah!", because it'll be one of the last big events in the HP fandom. Before, you could always say "there'll still be the movies", but now? *sighs* Oh HP fandom, why am I so overly attached to you?

It's November and that means autumn pre-Christmas time lots of tea and dreamy times with fantasy books NaNoWriMo! I started writing a chapter for my bachelor thesis this week and am already behind my actual schedule, because I find so little time to write during work. Also, I'm only writing crap. Meh.

(This is only the estimated word count for this month, I'll probably need just as much for the second half.)

Which reminds me ... *tries to write a few more paragraphs*
