I'm suprised at myself - I'm yet to blog this month. Nevermind. My life is not, frankly, very exciting at the moment. That leaves me with commenti ng on the news, or reviewing some film, or piece of music e.t.c...
Would you be interested? I'm not sure how much anyone cares about reviews. They prove you are intelligent, or opinionated,o r that you have fine taste, perhaps; still, most people would rather share their own opinion than accept someone else's. Sometimes, humans are really very annoying =)
So, if you want something to have an opinion...go onto http://www.youtube.com/, and look up Bubbles by Biffy Clyro, on their Only Revolutions album. It's really very good, and, well, iTunes were selling it for 59p last week. My purse appreciates this!
In eight minutes I have to finish *working* and head off to our lovely little LitSoc - that's Literature Society =') I feel like an ignoramus this week because I confused David Yates with W.B. Yeats, and told my friend how much I love Yates. In a few minutes time ,she will discover exactly how little I know about him - that is, Yeats, whom we are looknig at today. Nevermind.
I have 'a bit of a thing' about 20th century poetry, though I'm fond of many older poets too, so I need to brush up on my general poetry knowledge!
Thinking of poets and writers e.t.c, I managed to find a slightly battered copy of The Bell Jar from Oxfam for £1.99. I am now extraordinarily pleased with myself - I'm building up a collection of all my favourite books and reading as much as I can at the moment. The uni I'm interested in at the moment, St Andrews, asks a lot to get in so I need everything I can get...
After all, as Hector says (That's the History Boys) "There is no such thing as useless knowledge."
