After my intermittent existential crises during which I bore all and sundry about how I'm DEFINITELY going to quit my job this time, no really, things took a good turn.
I no longer have to work for Mrs Hitler (slight exaggeration- slight, mind) which filled me with unabounded joy. No longer do I have to trudge 35 minutes into the dull slurry of the suburbs, no longer do I have to make sure to polish the kitchen plug hole, no longer do I have to get worried about stealing her biscuits.
Hurrah!
In retrospect I was making alot of fuss about nothing but I have felt immeasurably better since stopping.
Then I got sent my first mark in the post: 80% ! I was distinctly underwhelmed, mainly because I was by myself and didn't really have anyone to tell or compare with. I am such a bloody downer. Somehow I feel that it's normal at Masters level, and as usual feel like a fraud because I never over-tax myself when it comes to work.
I also finished my application for work experience with radio 4, so fingers crossed. I don't hold much hope but then again you never know, and I did work on my spiel alot.
I have come up with a research idea for my dissertation too, which I'm feeling quite excited about, and shouldn't be too hard to get together. I've been enjoying familiarising myself with recording equipment, and also getting Alex to show me a bit about cameras. We are clearly going to end up as 'husbandandwifeteam' as Kaki from The Family loved to say.
Went to see Youth in Revolt yesterday- loved it. Review to come...
Going to watch Mad Men, wee!
