Sur le Flex?!

Dear Diary,

Today, I cocked up. I stupidly accidentally posted a section of my private diary on the Yale fora. Luckily it concerned purely scholastic endeavour so it probably won’t be seen as that bad. I did use phrases like ‘screw archæology until my essay is marked’ and it made it quite apparent to thousands of people that I have an ego the size of the Colliseum. Oops a daisy! Well, never-mind. I see it as a blessing in disguise, and it has given me the focus I need to concentrate on learning Latin. I am rushing the Latin at a break-neck speed, which means a much more thorough consolidation of the chapters I have worked through. So long as I grasp the way in which adjectives agree with t’other words in’t sentence: that’s fine.

I am slowly beginning to realise that no matter how hard I try to catch up, I will never be fully caught up, as there are still two essays in archæology I need to write, three more Latin papers, then worst of all - the dreaded examination. Again, Français helps immensely. I am going to have to work extremely hard if I am going to pass these modules. Once it’s all over I can relax. It bugs me that I am the only person left in my tutor group forum, and that after playing the gig at the fancy restaurant, I must choose to either get to my Latin tutorial or sign up for Yale signature track (which might well be worth doing - seeing as my other musical residency falls on a Saturday.

I am so tired. Must sleep.
