I am/was not... was asleep when you posted.

yusoparanoid4?

There was a guy sitting opposite me who kept looking at me and he had blond hair. I've forgotton what you look like (i'm awful with faces) and thought maybe it was you. . . Hows revision

Ahaha. Not blonde. Revision is bad today, fell asleep earlier and just spent 2 hours in KFC to get out of the rain... orz.

P.S. are you in Greats?

Greats?

Mhm KFC, i'm sure you promised to get me one of those not so long ago. Omnomnon.

Nevermind, thought you were doing philosophy for some reason.

Sounds more like you're trying to deceive me into a date, hermione. Is this how you treat every mysterious stranger who you've enslaved into retrieving library books for you?

I'm too smart to let you pull me into your cave and devour me like the rest, foul witch

pull? Devour? No need to put a gloss over it, i'll simply smack you acorss the head with a club and drag you back to my cave before proceeding to rape your brains out. It'll be fun.

any objections?

I haven't had the courage to enter the library, how is it at the moment?

Pretty bad unless you get there before 9am.

The intesity is dying down but still full as ****

Oh man. I've been hiding out at home, maybe I'll attempt doing some work there tomorrow. I work much better in the evening though, do people leave around 5 or 6ish?

You could try one of the subject libraries? I used to go to New College or Old College library if I wanted it at odd times. Depending on your subject they might not have the books you'd want though whereas I could usually do okay, particularly in New College as they had books I wanted and its waaaaaaaaaaaaaay prettier than the main library.

Did anyone else here take History of Art 1 this year? I'm sure I've seen people on TSR talk about the course, can't remember if anyone on this thread is or not.

Yeah, I tried New College last year. I have a friend doing divinity (don't get me started) and let me borrow her card to get me into the library. It's amazing in there!
Top of DHT is good too, and so is KB. But I do like the kind of "social" side of the GS library, you do meet people there and have a gossip.
I'm still hoping for my own TSR-encounter in there one day. I'll just have to become "TSR famous" like all of you!

Thanks for the advice though, I'm probs going to try tomorrow evening as I can't face an early morning push.

Yes i did! Exam worry?

I don't go in the main library during exams, new college library (even if i'm not a divinity student) is much nicer, as is the central library (fewer people studying).

Coffee shops are pleasant to.

Yes I just feel like there is sooo much stuff they could ask us about, and to be honest my notes for it kind of suck. I found it really hard in the lectures to sift through what was important/useful and what was just background information. And it kind of sucks that the past paper doesn't actually show the images.
Really not looking forward to spending three hours trying to write essays for this one

This!!! Starbucks is brilliant for studying. I love Grindhouse on Nicholson St. for revising as well, it's got a nice ambience (no, I'm not advertising for them).
