I never knew I had so much stuff. There's no room to move around in here, and about a third of my stuff is still in Manchester. And it's the bulky third, with my bean bag, a vacuum cleaner and most of my shoes. Although that just means a pair of sandals, a pair of boots, two pairs of trainers of various degrees of rattiness and my not-so-nice consverse. I brought home a pair of slippers and the cons on my feet. Man, I suck at having shoes. I do want those pinstriped cons though.

I got really upset packing up today. I mean, I'm so glad to be out of that place. But it's the whole... um, well, what it means, I guess. It feels like I've just found my place - I'm not as close as they all are already, but they don't mean to leave me out, I think, so I don't mind - but now it's summer. And plus all the stress with my mother not being in a good mood with me.

Over dinner, we talked about wikipedia, google and the internet. My dad told me a story about one of the fourth year projects my brother is looking over, where someone quoted wikipedia as a reliable source for an academic paper. Heh.

Irc is still fucking me over.


really, I'm still expecting people to tell me to shut the fuck up.

I've been reading your entries but i almost have no idea what to say or how to help D: But i'm hoping you're eating well and getting loads of sleep right? 'cause you seem really stressed at the moment, so sleep is good! ♥

Um, neither really! XD I just manage to get myself down about certain things really really easy, and the sleep and food situation really ins't helping. but thanks :333 ♥

Technically, Wikipedia can be cited in acedemic papers, providing the history revsion link is given, rather than one to a main article. Sure acedemics may look down up on it, but if you can cite an article by an undergrad first year's modular coursework, sure as shit you can reference a wikipedia article.

All this of course providing the revsion you're looking doesn't just say "Someone is a fag." in bold caps.

I'm not entirely sure over what was actually quoted and referenced, but it was possibly wrong. It's just... surely the references used on the wiki page would be better to reference, considering how easy it is to change pages. And especially for a final year project [worth about half of your years marks, afiak]
