Poetry Month

Okay, I got sucked into the vortex of poetry month. Humor me ;).

I'm not big on poetry. Actually, most things poetry will always stay a mystery to me, and I'll certainly never write a poem. But there's one (very well known) poem I absolutely adore. I present you with E. A. Poe's

The Raven

Once upon a midnight dreary, while I pondered weak and weary,
Over many a quaint and curious volume of forgotten lore,
While I nodded, nearly napping, suddenly there came a tapping,
As of some one gently rapping, rapping at my chamber door.
''Tis some visitor,' I muttered, `tapping at my chamber door -
Only this, and nothing more.'

Voice Mail Meme Thing

Saw this on housepiglet's journal, and even the prospect of having to listen to a record of myself talking English didn't stop my meme addiction enthusiasm ;).

Transcription:
"Hi, this is me, T'eyla, talking to my computer... I'm sorry if I sound like a total jerk, but I get really nervous when I talk in front of a microphone or anything like that... yeah, so... this might not really convey how I actually sound like, but it's the best I can do. So, this is what I sound like when I talk English; when I talk German I sound different, I sound like this: Hallo, jetzt sprech' ich gerade Deutsch. Yeah, and... I hope this was exciting for you!"

WIP: Untitled as of yet

Yay, another post. Last one for today, I promise!

Other than all the meme spamming, this actually has content, though. I've started uni today, and both of the courses I went to were pretty pointless, but the second one, Histo, was a complete waste of time. People who remember my rants from three months ago might remember that I ranted about my histology prof, who is unable to string together one coherent sentence. Well, he hasn't learned it since. So, I've started a little project to keep myself busy during Histo course. I'm diddling with a sweet and enjoyable but pretty pointless plot bunny of mine which includes all of my faves: sick!Wilson, established relationship, House POV, domestic!H/W, some humor, some angst, and some fluff ;). I've got Histo classes every Monday, Tuesday and Thursday, so that's when the updates are going to be. I am not going to touch this WIP outside of Histo. There's no beta as of yet (aside from the spell check), and I'm not xposting it anywhere till it's done. I invite you to join me on my Histo survival trip - but I have to warn you: I'm terrible with WIPs. There's a good chance this will end up unfinished.
