Sep. 7th, 2004 08:26 pmVery vague update where I shall say random things wot pop into my head.
My mother ranted at me for about 10 minutes last night about how I am a drug addict- not an actual drug addict, might I hasten to add- and my drug of choice is the computer. Um. Yay? That's nice, mum, please go away now.
Have scanlated 16 double pages of Yellow act 6. Is the best act so far. Should be finished by end of weekend.
I have been quite frequently told by people in various random locations on LJ that they like my icons. This makes me incredibly incredibly happy. *sheepish grin*
amayonolune was supposed to catch the bus home yesterday but she missed it and came over to my house instead. It was nice. I forced her to watch some TeniPuri, after all her vehement insistances that she would not watch an anime about tennis. And she enjoyed it, too. Enough to start joking about the true love of Momo and Ryoma. HAH. *smug*
My temperature has been up, accompanied by a headache, since Sunday. It is not pleasant.
Speaking of Sunday, that being Fathers' Day, I am once again in debt. And when I go into debt, I do it big time- like, $100+ big time. Rats. Shall probably have to do something about that sometime.
I suppose it's not technically debt since I do have the money. It's just in the bank.
The lightglobe above the computer has blown. I am in darkness. My eyes hurt. Whine whine bitch moan.
I have vague longings to move out of home and escape my mother, but it won't happen. Partially because of the associated cost, but also because my ability to take care of myself is sad and non-existent.
Ji and I have been trading all our favourite songs. Is a very fun pastime.
Cori is okay despite the hurricane horror, but timezones deserve to be sporked because hours that are reasonable by social standards- and thus must be kept during term- do not overlap for us when the time-difference is applied.
First half of the AST over. Don't think I failed, but don't think I did that well either. Sorry guys.
Was drawing in the half an hour spare I had at the end of Multiple Choice I. I put a lot of effort into it, and the position- one I usually screw up- looked natural and Raphael's hair- which is evil incarnate- looked perfect. And then I had to throw it out because taking things out of the examination room is not permitted.
There is no justice in the world.
Plus side to the AST, however, is that I missed Living Skills, Assembly and double History in one fell swoop. Worst day on my timetable! Yeah, baby.
Though I also miss three frees tomorrow. Blast.
Have been dragged kicking and screaming- albeit somewhat half-arsedly- back into the GW fandom by
minna1979. It has reinforced to me a very special fact of life: fandom is like investments and good wine. If you leave it alone to mature, it improves. This is not to say that the actual quality of the fandom improves; what I mean to say is that the amount of fic increases substantially and fandom cliches start to become endearing instead of fucking annoying because you've been away so long. Anyway, Minna, I ought to tell you that you have earned the eternal gratitude of one of my school friends.
Which reminds me, she's 18 on Friday. I promised to write her 1x2. *muses*
Experienced something bizarre and unpleasant today. After I'd finished my Short Response exam- but before we were allowed to go- I began to feel extremely nauseous. I literally thought I'd throw up, and the strange thing was that it wasn't nerves- I'd already FINISHED the paper.
The saddest thing was that my first thought, quite honestly, was, "Wait, there are still people writing. I can't throw up, it'll distract them!"
Um. Yeah. That's AST mentality for you. ><;
Also was distracted by rather bad pain in lower back in first test. Being the wonderful person she is, though,
amayonolune gave me a massage between exams, and I felt a lot better after. I also found a way to give her a massage without it tickling so much she squirms away! Woo.
I'm going to write a story about incest for my English creative. I thought you all needed to know this.
There are two weeks, three days and six pieces of assessment until the holidays.
That does not include tomorrow's AST exams because they are not assessment.
My holidays will be filled with pain and assignments. Or they will be technically, but then being me I probably won't do anything and will just have a term filled with pain and assignments and last minute panic instead. Whatever. The point of this is that I am looking forward to them regardless.
I haven't been to bed before midnight since sometime back in June.
That is all.
