Random thoughts

I'm trying not to freak out about my forthcoming assessment on Friday. It's bad enough that I'll be an anxious wreck on the day itself. 

What do emoji's mean and why?

Different things. They are basically shorthand to convey something that might not be clear in the text I use a small number of them, most frequently one to clarify that I'm not being serious about something I've written. This one is also a favourite as it's someone screaming, like the famous painting by the Norwegian artist Edvard Munch. I don't understand or see the point in most face emojis, so I stick to the half dozen I do.

I got used to them over the years from Facebook.
