Finally, easter. I have just handed in the draft for my linguistics paper (Waterfall, if you or your grandmother want to read it, just tell me), the literature course is past all the novels, so we only have shorter texts left...

There's still loads to do. All the secondary reading, for one thing, and memorizing some of the linguistic terms, and I need to start preparing for the rest of my life...

But it's sun outside.

Spring does something to us. I heard two easterner girls comment that once it got just slightly warm, everyone in Bergen flocked outside. It's true. We're gravitating towards the sunshine, students sitting on benches or lawns instead of in the study rooms or the library...

Responsibility can wait.

Right now I want to sit outside and read a book that's not required.

So, the snow has now rained away. Big surprise. According to the Bergens Tidende, it's been raining for 76 days in Bergen (so with today, that's 77). According to Dagbladet, the record is 87 days (unfortunately, I couldn't find the article on their webpage), but I can't remember who has that record. However, I think we'll beat it.

Um. Yay?

In other news, I have now watched the entire first season of Torchwood. I'd heard from a lot of people that it was crap, but I didn't think so. It was geeky, and fun, as well as stupid and exasperating at times - but it had a pterodactyl. I'm looking foreward to the next season, but I really hope Jack lets go of his no-sharing attitude. The team deserve to at least find out when he's from. I also want a lot more Tosh and Ianto, and that cool policewoman we met in They keep killing Suzie.

It was lovely to start the term again. I always think so right before it starts; the wait is awful. The books are a lot cheaper this year, but that's because I already have most of the theory/literature history for the literature course, and because I could borrow most of the books of my parents and waterfall8484's mother.

Tomorrow, I'm going to see Pan's Labyrinth with Helene, a study buddy. One of the bassoonists in Ung Symfoni recommended it.
