Quiz here, taken from Bookish. Having taken all of them in a fit of boredom, I find that I am a sorry excuse for an English graduate. Some of the questions were quite easy to guess at though.

72% - Twentieth Century
64% - Victorians
66% - Romatic Period
64% - Restoration & Eighteenth Century
60% - Early 17th Century
60% - 16th Century
20% - Middle Ages

In my defense, the last category was never included in any of my courses, so it was completely guesswork.

To assuage my feelings of inadequacy, I'm going to pretend that they're being graded on an average UK university scale. Woo-hoo! Discard the lowest marked module and I get an upper second overall. (Of course, if we're grading on American terms, I failed. Not even scraping a D. Let's not grade on American terms.) It's a very American style quiz. Quite a few of the things in the questions were mentioned in passing in my literature lectures, but we weren't marked on them. All English assesment was through essay questions, 3 essays in three hours.

Go on then. Take the quiz, ace every cateogry and then post about it here to make sure I feel really dumb. Or, better yet, take it, fail even more dismally and then make me feel better!

Fnah. I've mislaid my mooncup instructions (another reason that I need to tidy my room this weekend), so in case anyone else is in the same boat, here is what I did.

1) Boil mooncup in pan of water

2) Approach toilet with trepidation

3) Insert mooncup

4) Stand up. Instantly realise that the mooncup is far too low, and the slight stabbing pain is probably not part of the intended experience.

5) Sit back down. Remove mooncup by playing tug of war until vagina gives up.

6) DROP MOONCUP INTO TOILET

7) Kneel down, retrieve mooncup from THE OTHER SIDE OF THE U-BEND

8) Try not to be sick at sight of accumulated toilet gunk stuck to moon-cup

9) Debate throwing mooncup away, renouncing feminism and possibly own body.

10) Clean mooncup. Boil mooncup.

11) Decide to put off all further attempts until find some kind of sterilising tablet.
