It is mid term exam time. Most of my students are craming hard and are quite content to give my classes a miss. And so I have a little bit of time on my hands this evening. Ive planned all my lessons for the week. I would plan further ahead but you can never be sure when the schedules may change. A week in advance is always sensible enough.

I went a bit mad during the middle of last week. I had no classes and thought I would try and enjoy my final days before having to start my essay. Unfortunately, I decided that my only means of doing this was to get drunk. For two days in a row. I spent my time unconstructively and found myself spending an unusual amount of time playing cricket games in the arcade. I usually like to have a beer over the weekend but actually had to give it a complete miss for once because I was getting blotchy skin and dissaproving looks from the wife. I also needed a clear head to think about my essay question and to consider the neccessary reading I would need to do.

I have now calmed down on the excess and as a consequence my skin is better and the wife isnt giving me any hassle. Life is easier that way. Ive also got a much better idea on which direction my essay writing will go.

Ive mentioned before that Im a bit of a Hitchcock film buff. I watched Under Capricorn last night. Its a lesser known Hitch film and it performed quite poorly upon release. It stars Ingrid Bergman and Joseph Cotten and though a little slow in places was very watchable.
