The summer is now over. This can be seen by the fact that it is now raining non-stop every day, and the fact that school has started, with a vengeance. Four essays already waiting to be written. I have yet to get my student loan and have thus not had a chance to buy any books, something which is driving me slowly mad. This is of course just like any other year. It is my first week and I have already missed one seminar and been late to every lecture. Go me.
I would like to think that this is partly because I am suffering from something I would like to call "post-larp deflation", which is the slight depression/bad conciense/emptyness/blissfullness/happyness that comes after a larp is over. Every night I dream about the people I larped with, and characters from the larp. Often I go in and out of character during the night, and everything I did/did not do during the larp comes back to haunt me, both in my dreams and in waking hours. Often it is enough for me to talk to everyone I treated badly, and tell them I'm sorry for most of this to go away, but it still usually takes about a week for most of it to blow over. This summer I have learned the valuable lesson that this week should not be the first week of school. But the larp was great and I will try to post pictures here (as soon as I understand how).
