Just go forward in all of your beliefs

If you are waiting for a fill from your request at my shuffle fic meme, please read this!


I still have to fill fics for: nox_candida, mywittyuzername, ourdramaqueen, ilovewales, annjej76, and flying_dreamz.

ATTENTION: If you are any of the abovementioned people, I will fill your requests, but please be patient! Many of these are turning into much longer fics than I expected, so it will take me a while to fill them. I do have rough outlines done for everyone except for those of you who put in a request today. I am hoping to get at least part of everyone's posted in the next two weeks.

Thank you all for such great prompts! I'm having a lot of fun plotting them out. :)

If not, go vote!

I only had to wait about 10 minutes in line for the polls today, which is awesome.

Still need to make final determinations of where I'm applying and get a list of addresses to my letter writers. Now thinking of applying at Marquette, U of Wisconsin, U of Indiana-Bloomington, and a few others.

Lots of the first year TAs have been coming to my ENG 101 class and observing me teach. I get glowing reviews from them, but it's still nerve-wracking and kinda scary, especially since these reviews go to my boss. What's even scarier is that it was only two! TWO! years ago that I was doing those exact same observations. I feel all grown up now.

Quarter's almost over--hallelujah! I will never teach 5 classes at once again. The sheer amount of grading I've done this quarter is mind-boggling.

And as for the DW news, I'm still a bit in denial. But, I think, everything will be fine in the end.

For a fun question: on Ravelry's Doctor Who group, there's a meme going around:

Things you've learned from Doctor Who.

So, my fellow Whovians, what have you learned from Doctor Who? Pass it on!

I have learned that impossible is just a word, not a finality. I've also learned never to give up hope, even when everything seems impossible.

Holy crap this thing is pretty scarily accurate. I'm putting behind a cut because it's big and I don't want to screw up your journal.

And how cool is it that LJ now autosaves your posts? I wish that had been around sooner when my internet kept fritzing out last year.

1) Bold what is true about you.
2) Italicize what you wish was true about you.
3) Add one true thing about you to the end of the list.

In response to Meg's order request, I present my response to the Six Songs Meme. In which one names six songs one is currently digging no matter the genre or reason or order, then lists them in one's LJ along with these instructions, after which one tags six other people and bids on bended knee to do the same.

1. Flower of Scotland by Steve McDonald
2. Amanda's Wedding from the Emerald Isle CD.
3. Catch the Moments as They Fly from the Celtic River CD.
4. Si Do Mhaimeo from the Celtic Woman CD. I highly recommend this CD as all four women who sing on it are AMAZING.
5. One More for Love by Five for Fighting
6. The Breaking of the Fellowship by Howard Shore.

I tag Chelle.
If anyone wants these songs, let me know and I'll upload them to ysi later.
I have also been up for...17 hours straight, and am stumbling to bed even as I'm pressing "post." Need sleep omg.
