Nightmare!!

Ever Dearest Diary,

I just had to endure a horrific nightmare, an awful experience. I was trapped in an old castle with a nine foot tall insidious figure who kept eating people, animals, he even tried to eat poor little Ron’! As I protected Ron’ he ate another small dog instead. It was awful! I am not sure I can go back to sleep. My goodness! Words cannot describe just how bad that was. Truly macabre, gothic, dark, evil and twisted. I know many people think vampires are ‘cool’ but no, there is nothing cool about cannibalism. It was horrid! It all began by watching a mediæval guard get his throat slit, then some people entered, middle-ages soldiers, afraid, I hid under a blanket, then the soldiers were eaten, dismembered body parts littered the place, as well as bloody parts of animals and horses heads. It was terrible! I attempted to climb ‘the tower’ up and up, but the huge nine-feet tall grey old man clad in noble-attire kept pretending to be friendly whilst having a deep dark growling voice and was constantly eating people, with Ron for the starter and me as dessert! Iesus!

On another point, my Latin is coming along well. I am really getting into it. Although there is a slight risk of being late with my assignment, I feel I might well do well. Certainly better than the archæology papers. Speaking of which.

I am the ‘Last Man Standing’ (man denoting both genders) in my archæology class. Everyone else has quit seemingly. Hard-core. On my last paper I went completely over the top on footnotes, which might even lead to a fail; but without the footnotes it would have made no sense. I really gave my tutor both barrels, because I want so disappointed in writing such a great first paper and scoring an all time low grade. I have written far worse papers and garnered higher marks, so it makes no sense that I failed. I got over it soon enough, but decided to ‘tell him how it is’ (my tutor). I am a hot-dang genius, and if someone marks me down, instead of ‘towing the line’ (which I should do) I simply write more and more radical views, in all correctness. The last time I did that my marks doubled. Sure, it’s a gamble, but I’ll bet that my tutor has never read a paper like that before.

On another note, the Yale course is going extremely well. Back stage party in paradise on!
