My English oral exams are over!!! The title is an excerpt from the last two lines of Wordsworth's "And in the frosty season" -- they're my favourite lines, lol.
But then, because of my english orals, I went and searched up Lord Byron's gay poems for his choirboy boyfriend when he was seventeen (they are his best poems, really), and I found my favourite poem all time. Here are the last two lines for 'Stanzas to Jessy' ('Jessy' is used as a name to replace that of the choirboy's):
There are two Hearts whose movements thrill,
In unison so closely sweet,
That Pulse to Pulse responsive still
They Both must heave, or cease to beat.
There are two Souls, whose equal flow
In gentle stream so calmly run,
That when they part---they part?---ah no!
They cannot part---those Souls are One.
--
These two stanzas are amazing.
Anyway, yeah, the oral exams are over. I feel like there isn't much to do at all, but at the same time, I actually have a lot of college essays to write. >.>
I need to go out to Causeway Bay tomorrow (waaaayyy downtown, literally). >.> Have to leave at noon-ish then I guess.
Don't have much else to say. I CAN'T WAIT FOR CHRISTMAS!! But Christmas also means I have to get a kick on with my college apps. Grrrrrrrrrrrr. -lazy-
I'm thinking of getting everyone small chocolates this year for Christmas.
