Provisional Marks For War Essay


Managed to get into my statement of results and found that I have a provisional mark of 66% for the Auschwitz essay.  A very safe 2:1 for that, then - still not confirmed by my lecturer, as yet. A provisional yeeee haaaawwww.  I have to work out the stats as it leaves me 60 credits for the major dissertation and a final 20 credits for satire (beginning September 2016).  I need to find out what I need to get an overall very safe 2:1.

Train Dreams/The Fall

So many train dreams these days, not surprising since I spend a good chunk of my life on them. If this is about motivation (please see Jung for details), then I am always between stops rather than actually arriving anywhere.  My fellow classmates finished their degree day before yesterday and, even if I feel a little crestfallen that I wasn't with them, I DO think I would have gone three shades of loopy if I hadn't gone part time.

Have taken to reading Ransom Rigg's Miss Peregrine's Home For Perculiar Children enroute and listening to Numan/Fenton collaboration From Inside (Original Sound track from film by John Burgin - From Inside).  I've been having a bit of a Gary Numan renaissance recently, as so has he.  Prone to depression and occasionally bouncing off of the walls, Numan has bouts of excellence, punctuated by conflicted feelings, it is the combo of Fenton and Numan's wife Gemma that keeps him going, no matter however much he complains about them.

(Fenton: Mate, you gotta get back on track and do what you do really well.

Numan (staring out of a window): ......I want a kitten....)

Anyway, have downloaded stacks more of his stuff and really liked The Fall.

80s Tracks Week: Track 6 - This Wreckage


Gary Numan was my hero and I have stuck with him through thick and thin - saw him at a gig at the London Forum in 2006. Absolute magic.

Take A Proper Gander....

Most of the UK (OVER 60%) didn't vote for these charlatans, yet they were somehow shoe-horned in.  An independent fiscal body has declared that if the Tories go ahead with the extreme measures 14,000,000 will be worse off.  I think that most people want the economy to be sorted out, but this is both criminal and morally wrong, especially when you read the stats on what the Tories have been up to behind parlimentary doors.  Just to be 'back in the black.'

Petals



I'm The Fog Yet To Descend )

Most of the music that I keep from year to year in the public domain, are videos that have impressed themselves upon me for some reason.  This song/video is so dark, but for me retrospectively, it tells about trust then betrayal and at that time, I identified with this very much.  So very dark and twisted, but isn't that (truthfully) in the depth of any psyche - battling with a shadow self?
