Otherworlds changes & misc. stuff
Jan. 14th, 2005 04:42 pmThe board now has a Fanfic discussions category, with forums for reading recommendations, general discussion about writings and the likes. Plus, I've made The Lórien Soap Opera awailable for reading for guests, while still only members can play.
Other than that, after a long and thorough search, I got lucky today. I finally found a battered copy of Nicholas Nickleby by Dickens. I used to love that book a great deal in my teen years, and I'm so very happy that now I'll be able to read it in original.
But first, I want to finish Life in a Medieval City, which the most generous Archet gifted upon me for Xmas. It's an excellent book - historically correct, with just as much data as my poor, tender head can hold. Dratted EU! Amazon has other, similar works of the same authors on sale, but we won't have the Euro until three more years! Ah, well, there's always online research - reading is just easier on the eyes and can be done while riding the bus...
We got the new curriculum for next term. Mine is rather discouraging. I'll have to stay at school until 1400 each day, save Thursday, when I'm in until 1500. I do have free hours in-between, and I've had a lot worse, to be honest. But it was sooooo nice to come home at 1100 every Friday. Well, I knew I won't get so lucky ever again.
