A335 Journal – May 2025

Visible to anyone in the world

25 May 2025

My previous module, A334 hasn’t even finished. There are three more days to go before the EMA cut off date, and I’m starting to think about what I need to do for the next module.

Today, I’ve done three things. The first was to download an audio version of Bleak House onto phone, in anticipation of a really long drive. (Bleak House runs for over 40 hours, which is nearly as bad as Rousseau’s Confessions).

Following some chat on the A334 WhatsApp group, I picked up that another set text is Oranges are not the only fruit. I downloaded that too, and that came in at a slightly more digestible 6 hours.

I’m up to chapter 5 in Bleak House, and I have no idea what’s going on, so it’s time to download a version of the text from Project Guttenberg to my Kindle so I can try to make sense of it.

Wish me luck.
