Jun. 17th, 2006 12:44 pmI have my LAST EXAM today. I hope I don't fail. In fact, I hope I get a credit. But I'm not holding out too much for that, for fear of disappointment. I did the work throughout the course, but as soon as it hit revision period I was like "BLEERGH" and did jack all, so my summaries are really shoddy. Worst to worst, I have the information in my lecture notes and will just run out of time, I guess... <<
Exam yesterday was Japanese Grammar. I think it went quite well. I finished early, didn't take a rest break. It's worth about 25%, I think, and I was already sitting on an HD for the rest of the course.
Looking back on my recent dreams they've all been vaguely violent and horrible. The night before last I got almost run over by a car once and then actually run over the second time, or run into, really. I was sitting in a large open-ish room that was kind of holiday programme style, right at the back with a group of people, and a car burst through the wall on the other side and stopped just before hitting me. And then later it happened again, only it didn't quite stop before running into me. I wasn't hurt or killed the way you'd expect from that kind of thing but my legs and arms really hurt. Well, whatever.
Last night I was shopping with Kelsey. Which was somewhat unusual, because I don't usually have online friends in my dreams-- not sure why. We were looking at nightclothes, for some reason, and then we ran into Shi, who was looking for belts. And Shi and Kelsey got into a discussion about belts, and I was like, I don't wear belts, actually.
... *shrug* And I don't. But, uh.
It gets a bit skip-y after that. Also I turned into a boy. I don't know why my dreams insist on making me male half the time, but there you go. There was a bit that was like a SNES video game where I was running around through a field-ish thing and there was agriculture out to get me, including some of the grabby plants from Children of Mana, but when I whacked the lettuces with... my keyblade? sword? wooden sword? *doesn't remember* they exploded and turned all the bad things into carrots which I picked up.
Anyway, then... someone had died, I think. I-- random boy who didn't act or look like me, but was me in the dream, whatever-- was somewhere with Sephiroth and two other people. I was trying to be all tough and fend for myself, kind of thing-- don't know why, presumably was on streets for some reason, maybe due to whoever it was dying, or maybe that's just why we were in the same place-- only I was vaguely malnourished. And pretending I totally WASN'T doing anything seedy (I bet it was prostitution, totes). Except one of the others knew/figured it out, and told Sephiroth while I was out of the room. And afterwards when I'd left to "go home" he found me and was like, "Going home. REALLY. *sarcasm*" and dragged me off to his place and was like, EAT.
Funnily despite not being me in any other way, I had this waffle with a weird kind of raspberry jam that when I tried to heat it in... sandwich press... splattered all over the place and Sephiroth was like, why THAT jam?
Me: Um? There's something different about this jam? I just thought it was, y'know. Jam.
Sephiroth: *checks label* *pained* It has about 20g more sugar per serve in it.
Me: ... uh... oh well, it'll be fine... <<
And I got jam all over my shirt and took it off. Note: still male! Still not actually me in any way! (except maybe diabetes? *shrug*)
Also, I don't remember what I looked like. Maybe I was Cloud.
I'm not sure if it really counts as "me" any more, though, because at this point I was inside Sephiroth's head more than the boy's, and he was feeling like a bad person because he'd been trying to be all high-ground moralistic for-your-own-good and now he was wondering if he was just motivated subconsciously by attraction.
And in conclusion: MY DREAMS ARE BADFIC!
To change the subject, amazon shipping rates for books are HORRENDOUS. I was looking at the Squeenix site, which taunted me with its shiny game novels and guidebooks and manga, and I was like, god I want the KH ones. Well, after going "HEE THE FFXII GUIDEBOOK LOOKS LIKE IT HAS DARTH VADER ON THE COVER!" because I'm just like that, but. XD And I went to Amazon. I could have gotten the Ultimania alpha and first novel of KHII for like $20, but then the shipping was another $17 or so! AUGH. I gave up, because that's just not worth it. *cry*
Oh, also. Last night I read the 3 volumes of FuruBa you gave me, Cathy-- AM HORRIBLY ADDICTED AAAAH. *goes in search on the internet for MORE, PRECIOUS*
On a final note, ideas for bandAU!X progress nicely. By which I mean I have three words for you: the mammal song. XD
