4:00a - November 25th
Well, that will go down as one of the greatest days of this year.
I've got masses to update on, and as you'll see in a post I've half-written up from Thursday, I have had good reason for the hiatus. The latter half of November has been perhaps the most intensive time I've ever gone through in terms of work-loads and deadlines, with only certain periods of Sixth Form as competition, and even then, if I was a little late, it didn't matter too much...I don't get that option this time. Last week, I completed a 1800-word essay on liberalist nationalism in Germany 1806-1871...in German. I also had to do two presentations for my history courses, both of which ended up fairly rushed, but well-fought. I have two essays due in on Thursday, and I've started neither of them properly yet, although I know the rough backgrounds of both...and there's no way I could have done a fabulous job on both, as I had with my 1850s Japan essay, which I got back with a 1st and the comment 'there is nothing I disagree with in this essay'.

After all that, it was greedy of me to have another 'day off', but, well...this one I'd been waiting for a long long time. Until it actually began, I had a fluttering feeling in my stomach, a giddy expectation, of this, of Video Games Live, the holders of the first video game music concert to be held here in the UK. When one of you so kindly notified me of it, I knew I must go...for, I am a video game music fan, and I'm close to London, and I've been wanting to go somewhere for a while. It turned out that ![[info]](http://l-stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif) zeibura_kathau was going already, and we were to meet up sometime.
