Our 'exams' start on Thursday, the teachers seem like they could be less bothered about them, they are all oral which will entail lots of filler words in Russian and very little actual information. At the moment I'm trying to write a presentation on Alexandr II, a nineteenth century tsar (oh the excitement!) due to a lack of source material (i.e. I was too lazy to actually find anything in the confusing college library, and anyway, its all in Russian!) I'm working off a children's book about the tsars, VERY patchy lecture and tutorial notes and, the saviour of lazy people everywhere, wikipedia. Unfortunately, seeing as I have to be connected to the internet to get Wikipedia, I'm getting easily distracted, like by writing emails, blog posts etc. They have a particularly fine definition of a skanger on wikipedia.com....
Ok, back to work.
Another fascinating weather report...its -1 in Dublin today and +1 in Moscow, whats going on with the world???? Ankle deep slush, soo not conducive to wearing anything you don't want destroyed.
