'And the days are not full enough'

And the days are not full enough
And the nights are not full enough
And life slips by like a field mouse
Not shaking the grass.

Ezra Pound

Anyway. Who's excited about the ski trip?

They shouldn't put it right before midterms.

[zadielovelace]

Agreed. It creates such a dilemma.

[illtemperedhart]

Yeah. I don't envy that you TA potions.

[zadielovelace]

[Some of yesterday's results did make me worry a little.]

[...]

Everything will be fine! But I think I may just stay here and hit the books. For my own peace of mind.

[illtemperedhart]

[.....]

There were some mishaps, but there's only so much you can do for people.

I'm thinking the same thing.

[zadielovelace]

[Someone ruined one of the ca] I suppose. [...] But there's still time for some more study sessions if anyone wants them!

If that's the case, we should be study buddies!

[illtemperedhart]

[...] Ruined what? [...] Are the journals doing something weird again?

Sure - the library will be empty, so that'll be nice.

[lionellovelace]

We can study at the mountain, Zadie.

[zadielovelace]

[...] The atmosphere doesn't seem very study-friendly?

[lionellovelace]

I'm hoping there will be times to sneak away.
Are you struggling in anything?

[zadielovelace]

Maybe. [...] Not especially. Are you?

[lionellovelace]

No, everything has been manageable so far.
Difficult, but okay.
Though, unlike Viola's poem says, I'd argue the days have been plenty full.

^^^^^^

[illtemperedhart]

And you guys have another year after this of questionable planning to suffer.

[tristfully]

I understand. I can’t imagine not going though.

Besides, it’s nice to study by the fire.

[illtemperedhart]

[...]

It always feels a little excessive.

Some people have the willpower to study while there, but a lot don't.

[tristfully]

Excessive?

If the administration isn’t worried about it, I don’t think you need to be worried either.

[illtemperedhart]

Maybe I'm just not a vacation kind of person.

I don't think the administration is always totally sensible.

[tristfully]

Do you have trouble relaxing?

Lukashenko was framed.

[illtemperedhart]

[....] No.

What?

[bratsquatch]

[you have incredible willpower]

[illtemperedhart]

Well, I don't want to fail.

[bratsquatch]

[bratsquatch]

if you end up coming to the ski trip i'll make sure nobody bothers you. [......] [including me.]

[illtemperedhart]

[.........]

Don't worry about me.
