So earlier today, I heard that a lot of our uni assignment feedback was actually uploaded online already, and so I was checking my marks/feedback so far for Film101. And basically my marks are all incredibly average so I was a bit down, but then I saw that in one of my assessment items I got 100%. And then I realised it was Assessment 1. Basically we all had to tell a personal story in our very first tutorial. I of course, was oblivious to this, and had nothing prepared, so I impromptu came out as trans* to my entire class, and despite the fact that I was totally unprepared, told the story in an incredibly incoherent manner; constantly stumbling over words, with long awkward pauses, and the fact that the whole story lasted only a minute, I got 100%. lolololol. I’m really amused by this. I’m not sure if my tutor is giving me a pity mark, or he just appreciated my balls. But yeah, he’s a really nice guy, everyone at uni this year have all been incredibly nice, but boring, and slightly derpy.
Cool story, bro.

Dublin - Trinity College Library by Irish Welcome Tours on Flickr.
Aside from being absolutely gorgeous, with two story dark wooden arches, this is also the largest library in all of Ireland. It serves as the country’s copyright library, where a copy of all new books and periodicals must be sent when they apply for copyright protection. The library is also home to the famous Book of Kells, an illuminated manuscript created by Celtic monks around the year 800.
