Ahem.

Guess what I have.

C'mon. Guess.

Three tickets. To Bruce Springsteen.

HEE!

And now, for something completely different: Recs
Crown of Stars - This story is harsh and tense and jumps and is just all kinds of wonderful. It describes the battle after the one in Good Omens is averted and it's horrid and gritty and so, so wonderful. Read it. Also, look at the pretty, pretty pictures.

Sub Rosa - A telegram correspondence between Mycroft and Sherlock Holmes. Run, don't walk to read this - it really is extraordinary and conveys an incredible amount with very little words.

And now I am going to return to...actually, I don't have anything to do. Um.

I could go write my personal statement.

Or sleep.


SPRINGSTEEN! WHEE!

Since I don't really feel like going to bed right now and the alternatives to this are outlining the stupid fic idea in my head or working on my English translation, I'm posting a poll instead.

Because lazy is my middle name. Or vaguely in the middle, anyway.

So, here's the thing: this year I have to do a big written project in one of my A-level courses. I'm doing English, because it's easiest. But here's the thing - I can't figure out what I want to write about (and I have to turn my request in in less than a month, so I'm a little panicked). Here's where you (and the poll) come in.

[Poll #568063]

See, that wasn't so hard!

ETA: Summary of 'Lost', Summary of 'Specimen Days', Summary of Roald Dahl books, Wiki's entry about Holmes, Wiki's entry about 'The Merchant of Venice', Wiki's entry for 'Brideshead Revisited' and Summary of 'Monstrous Regiment'. And yes, I do realize I'm the only one who cares enough to use these links. It was fun compling them anyway *grins*
