Okay.

Homework:


  • Send FYE instructor a 'this is the name you should associate with this email account' email - Done.
  • Send FYE teacher answer to question - Done.
  • Pre-Course Assessment - Done.
  • Learning Styles - Done.
  • Draw a Map - Due the 18th. I want to do something interesting though. Make a pillow or something.
  • Get online portion of English class set up (picture, screen name, etc.) - Done.
  • Introduce yourself (I know you don't care - do it anyway.) - Done.
  • Read the introduction of your English book - Will be done.
  • Watch Maths videos - Will be done.
  • Actually do your Maths work (It's just the odd-numbered problems... for five sections *headdesk*) - Will be done.


And that was my day.

FYE teacher is the good kind of nuts (the deadpan, 'It might be possessed' when talking about a malfunctioning projector, 'I have four cats and a lot of sarcastic t-shirts' kind of nuts).

English teacher is nice and laid-back and he looks like an English teacher so that's cool.

Maths teacher is okay too. (A kid in that class has my email because he's getting a study group together because we all suck at maths and that's why we're in that class.)

My head hurts and I'm too warm so I think I'm going to go upstairs, get my headphones and some paper and start in on the videos. I'm really hoping this won't take as long as I'm afraid it's going to.

College is rough, guys...

Apparently,

me being bored equates to me learning Gallifreyan.

I am a nerd.

I started playing around with a translator and then I got bored enough to actually start writing in it.

Now I miss screwing around with creating languages.

. . .

Okay, here it is: I'm freezing and I'm tired but I don't want to sleep because when I'm unconscious I don't realise how much time is passing and I only have one more day until school. And it's times like this that I give serious thought to committing myself because I clearly can't handle this whole 'life' thing.

So. Short update. I'll probably do another one once the anxiety has calmed down (Monday or Tuesday, maybe) but for now, this is all you're getting.

I am alive, I am very anxious, I am very tired.

And a lot of things need to change.

But for now, I'm going to go to sleep and then spend the day (hopefully) writing and editing and getting the site in order. I'm planning things again, you see. Good things.

Think of me, guys? I think I've got it figured out but I still feel a little lost... Hoping school will fix some of that, at least.

Welcome to Camp

I just now realised A) what a bad idea it is to drink a bunch of coffee right before bed and B) that Camp NaNoWriMo and school start in the same month.

While I collect my thoughts on this matter, enjoy this picture of my desktop:


Does it not amaze you? (I have little Ginoza Nobuchika shimeji! Squee!)

A 'shimeji' is a 'desktop buddy'. They walk around and climb up your windows and multiply and be adorable and you can grab them with your mouse and fling them around. They'll stick to the sides of the windows and start climbing. So yeah. There's where a lot of my time has gone.

(Also, quick note: Blogger is being a douche with a capital bag right now so some of the links up top might not work. IDK what's going on but it's not really letting me do much. So.)

Anyway. It's the first day of Camp NaNoWriMo and I'll be working on a story that's been nagging at me so that should be both helpful and frustrating. School starts on the 8th so that's going to take some getting used to. At least it'll give me a little more structure.

I'm there from 9 in the morning to noon most days (well, except for Tuesdays and Thursdays when I have Psych (it gets out at three) and Fridays when I just have maths).

But. when all this is over with I'm thinking of going to Evergreen since they have this Visual and Media Arts thing there. It sounds like something I'd really love to study, honestly. I'm still planning on mortuary school, just not for a little while. It's a really restrictive job and... well, just not yet. Some day but not yet.

But yeah. Camp NaNo and 60 Followers on tumblr. Good day, really, all in all.

Just wanted to check in and say hi and all that. I might be more active or way less active depending on how life goes for the next little while but I am around and I am doing Camp NaNo and... that's about it. So, I'm going to go snag something to eat and then maybe try to actually work. (And I mean 'work' this time. I want to start getting things out there. I have so many stories just sitting around and... well, it's kind of making me sad.)
