also it has its own library and stuff. i kind of regret not joining, but they never get any speakers i'm interested in, so it wouldn't have been worth it.

Yes I get bitchy when I'm in charge of something

Also, who's going to queerfest tonight?

I'm sorry! I set the alarm for 8.30am so that I could be vaguely awake, showered and dressed in time for the rehearsal but clearly something went wrong coz I only woke up just after 10am and was feeling pretty dazed

Are you performing Tuesday?

If I win...I guess I can't let the extra vote go to waste so I'll need someone to come down with me. You'd be quite welcome. I mean I'd send an email to jcr folks asking them if they wanted to come down but lets face it what're the chances of that happening.

Must read quicker. Two hours to read 40 pages is just ridiculous.

Nor I, and considering the close correlation between your TSR name and your real name, that was quite inobservant of me.

Two hours to read 40 pages sounds about right to me.

What can I say... I am omniscient. It can be a burden.

Am in the Woosta concert on Tues but am also fulfilling my honorary Merton Orch member duties (which has never included turning up to rehearsals, might I add! ) by playing in their concert on Thurs

I'm quite frankly appalled that Simon has banned reindeer antlers from the Woosta concert

In other news, this is my second Branos burger of the week. I think this officially makes me a bad person. Especially given that I had to give the Tutor for Women my dress size today, so she can buy me a "pretty dress" for playing the role of Peace in her medieval play. Branos probs increases one's dress size significantly

Shoes polished, emergency replacement partner arranged, alarm clock set, no idea where my bow tie is. First dance competition tomorrow.

Oooh, good luck

[jackmb]

Ah well, I always knew that I was unlikely to win. Still- only 20% of the vote??!!! In an election with two candidates??!!!

Well done anyways HoVis, I'm sure you'll have a great time at all those OUSU meetings.

I know the feeling, I only got just above 20% in the ousu elections with only one opponent, but I'm gonna count RON as a proper candidate.

Looks like you were spot-on about the slate.

Also, as a Classicist, you may be best-placed to appreciate my latest set of cufflinks:



I may well wear them at Classics Dinner.

that's pretty exciting! it doesn't say how much it costs though, or have any other info, which is a pain. guess i could go down and ask. it'd be nice to be able to be eligible to go to speakers, since my boyfriend's pretty weird about having me go as a guest...

The relevant Standing Orders section (Rule 53, if you're interested) says Educational Members are "entitled to be admitted to the Society's debates, addresses by distinguished persons, the reading- and writing-rooms, and to the Old and New Libraries for the purpose of using therein any of the books", and that "the said termly sum shall bear a reasonable relationship to the monthly subscription which is due from a Life Member paying his Membership fee by Banker's Order", so it shouldn't be masses - but yeah, ask.

Unfortunately not, since I have a rehearsal here for the aforementioned medieval drama thing I'm in. Thursday is still free though
