hey freya

hows university life?? haven't heard from you in a while. hows the social life??

what are you reading just now for uni and does that leave you any time to read any thing for pleasure?

i've just re-read the da vinci code again. have you read it? historically it really is not very accurate but it is really good read. it goes along at a great pace. very disappointed that tom hanks is playing the lead cos i cant stand him.

have you seen any good films lately.

get back to me soon.

morganna.

films! now thats really an area of conversation you dont want to get me started on, i could be here for hours!

im good, but my stress levels are reaching optimum levels as i have a ton of stuff and essays to do for uni - which, incidentaly, im not doing - and i am perhaps starting to freak out a little. And as you can probably guess from that last statement, the social life is almost non-existent

but never mind, it will be fine when this semester is over. if i pass. ok ok, lets leave that subject there

hmm, no, it doesnt leave a lot of time for pleasure reading, but all of the books on the course are generally good if you have a hankering for shakespeare and Donne and literature from the romantic era (which i do). since theres so much work to do, and since you still have to maintain a social life and do fun things to take youre mind off work, there isnt time for much else. But anyway, i love reading, literature is one of the main passions in my life and i always find a little time for it.

Im surprised at myself, ive actually managed to refrain from reding the da vinci code. its just because it gained so much popularity i think, and i didnt want to read it because i didnt feel that it would live up to all the hype, scared that it was just given so much publicity because of the controversial nature of the book. i probably should, is it any good? he he, and yeah, i'd probably end up schreeching loudly at the book "that fact isnt historically accurate" or, like with i was with the film Braveheart "you just added that love interest to please the ladies!" "dont you know that william wallace was a shmuck? i demand that the director be sacked!" (i can get quite passonate lol)


i have seen a few goos films as it happens. i watched batman begins with my flatmates late at night before i went to bed on thurday. this was followed by star wars the phanom menace which i suppose restored the -Amazingly and spectacularly good/ so terrible i feel like chewing off my own foot- balance

how about yourself? and are you at school/colledge/uni?

oh, and right now im reading Donne's sonnets. and a pratchett novel thats not really part of the course *ahem*

hi again,

you really should read the da vinci code, its a cracking good read. you need to suspend a bit of belief if you are good at history, according to most people i have spoken to. i really enjoyed the book and will get round to reading some more of his stuff as soon as i get round to it.

what are you doing over christmas. are you going to have a quiet time or have you got non stop parties? what have you and your flat mates got planned.

i dont have a clue what i am doing.(nothing new there then)probably just play it by ear and leave it to the last minute.

recommend me something good to read over the christmas period, but not shakespeare, i find him too difficult to readbut i enjoy the productions. something a bit more contempory if possible.

know this is a busytime so best of luck if you have exams and if we dont speak before - have a nice christmas

hi there! didnt really have much planned for christmas, i stayed with my parents and got driven crazy by my younger brothers. ive been staying with my boyfriend a lot recently because my flat is so huge and empty! the flatmates have gone home til january . im just having fun and keeping myself occupied. oh, and ive been working weekends at that magical place of toys r us lol.

as for books, try the terry pratchett tiffany trilogy: the wee free men, a hat full of sky and wintersmith, their faboulous reads if you havent read them already. anyway, hope you had a good christmas morgannalfrey
