Eddie Izzard is so incredibly lovely. The show was amazing, hilarious, enlightening, etc. I took pics and videos of the Q&A thing afterward. He didn't call on me, but I was right there, so I was at least in a good spot for my camera.... until it ran out of batteries. But anyway; more info and the pics and videos and stuff will come soon, when I'm more mentally awake (which is not right now, obviously, 'cause I have a feeling at least one of these sentences doesn't make sense, but I'm assuming that's okay.) Also, I bought a Cake or Death shirt, which is awesome. And I chatted about pretty much everything I could remember with Raquel, so if I go to bed now, it won't all be gone from my memory (yay, chat transcripts! lol). Besides being lovely, he's also very sexy, isn't he? Anyway, yes, bedtime now.
EDDIE FUCKING IZZARD

Mar. 5th, 2008 05:53 pmso after about a week of sleeping and resting during every spare moment, I'm moderately healthy again. I think. Slight cough still, but that's it.
today I met with the other two girls in my Italian presentation group, and we got a rough outline done. (I should probably be translating, actually...) schedule for that: meet tomorrow at 12:30-ish and get a rough dialogue written, have either the teacher or one of the tutors look it over on Friday, practice practice practice, present on the 14th. O___O but after today, I'm feeling a bit more confident. It's a pretty good story this time, and it incorporates all the stuff we've learned so far, so yay!
dunno what the hell's going on in physics. there's the creepy dude, the cute dude, and the freaky mean girl and none of us have a clue, and so we're probably just gonna fail or something. it's the teacher's fault. he's an idiot.
my portfolio presentation is like, 90% done. I just need the cropped pic of my Boromir painting and then jpgs of all of the pictures, and I need to fill out that form, oh yeah. and then it'll be done and sent in. \o/ (about bloody time.)
am currently writing my 'final story' for my writing class, which is supposed to be up for peer review by today (but it's not finished yet!), and in the mean time, I've been reading over some of my WIP fics, and hoping to get started on those again. yay!!
