Some old material
Wednesday, 31 August 2011 @ 00:51
Just before I put the next post up, (which is little more than a placeholder really, but pretty at least) I thought I would at least do my readers and myself the courtesy of cleaning out my blogging attic as it were. I found this in my unpublished tray, and thought I would share it. On looking at it my overwhelming thought is that I wish I had enough time to waste on things like this now, but that's life I suppose. Enjoy.

quote of the week.

"The circle of human knowledge, illuminated by the pale, cold light of reason, is so infinitesimally small, the dark regions of human ignorance which lie beyond that luminous ring so immeasurably vast, that imagination is feign to step up to the borderline and send the warm, richly colored beams of her fairy lantern streaming out into the darkness ; and so, peering into the gloom, she is apt to mistake the shadowy reflections of her own figure for real beings moving in the abyss.

about me.
picture.

I'm a 23 year-old student in London Cambridge London, studying English Literature Law. It's hard to really think of anything truly personal I can put here that might give you some idea of who I am, so I will just tell you that my favourite Shakespeare play is Richard II, my favourite chocolate bar is Snickers, and I have a bit of a thing for instant coffee, especially if someone else makes it for me.


I'm interested in Renaissance Literature, Higher Education policy, and libraries.
I'm completely in love with a Scottish girl.
