Whatever's left


The beauty and the magic....



My life is so busy, I don’t even have time to stop and realise I am still living, and this is still my life.
It is almost too amazing to put into words; the thought that I actually am getting educated tends to fly over me. The idea that I’m doing what I love is still incomprehensible.
The knowledge that I'm in one of the most beautiful places in the world, takes over me every time I step outside my overwhelmed and ever thinking head...

Beautiful Friday afternoon, and couldn’t ask for a better feeling. I will be home in a week, the video project is done (was brilliant and I do apologize for anything negative I said about it in the past, I wont be negative again), and it’s a long weekend (human rights).
Problems occurring include, everyone is going away this weekend… Still have a classics essay to complete… can’t wait another week!!!

As this term draws to a very needed end, I am bombarded with art, it wont stop, but the exciting thing is, it is the painting project, maybe this will go well… Plus drawings need to be completed, but I do have faith it will all be done soon! Watch me, this weekend my drawing will be completed. I mean its not as if Ill be frolicking on the beach or anything…
Art test is done and brilliance in the knowledge that no Art History lectures will take place next week, gives me some sort of security.

I absolutely love classics. We are studying Egypt now, remarkable.
The best thing about this subject is the lecturers. So far we have had Snowball, who did the Odyssey with us, an absolute sweetheart, He’s like the grandfather I never had. Such a sweet man. Then Daniel who did all that evolution stuff, and is amazing with his metaphors and way with words, he's the type of man that makes you realise there are amzing educated men out there (that arent gay).  And now we are on to Daniel, This man is my inspiration. I have never heard anyone speak so beautifully. He is so calm with his ways, a real gentleman and so knowledgeable. In my first introductory lecture during o.week he read an ancient greek poem, and my decision to take Classics was decided.

I love that Im surrounded by these academics. I love that I could eventually be more knowledgable than I am now. I love that I can be here and be inspired....
