yuck

Having spent every spare moment I had this weekend studying, I have made a couple observations:

(01) I am not as stupid as I thought I was; I understand the things that are going on in class (with the help of the textbook, as well as copious help from Google, Wikipedia, and the Macrogalleria). I just haven't been putting the required weekly work into these classes. This needs to change next year, apparently: more studying every weekend, which will make me a robotard nerd, but oh well.

(02) I hate studying.

(03) I hate having to be a loser and study. At least I'm grown-up enough to do it?

(04) I wish I had a real place to study. Goals for next year: obtain a working desk area!

(05) I hate studying.

(06) I especially hate memorization. I almost asked the prof in today's review session what he thought he was actually teaching us by making us memorize so much information, but... I decided to wait until after the actual exam to be a huge smartass. (See? SEE? I AM a grownup!)

(07) Grad school is a lot more work than undergrad, even part-time. Maybe it's because so far I'm in the ass-kicking intro classes; maybe it's because I've moved out of my degree/area of expertise (chemical engineering). It's probably a combination of that. But it's ALSO the fact that grad school is just a lot more fucking work. Cocks.

(08) I miss football.

Back to the books. First final Monday, second final Wednesday.

Ah. Reason #23432 I like being able to use my laptop (which is still shiny) at work. That sucks.

And it was a good idea, because it's a little easier than writing and yet still manages to be just as dorky. I am so glad I dabble in nearly all aspects of copyright violation fandom.

I thought about doing Christmas fic, but I still owe people AU-verses from the last meme I did - and they were all AWESOME, so I still plan on writing them - and so I didn't.

The first year I did Christmas fic I managed to write all of it, though some was late. I am fairly sure that I didn't write any of it the second year, though. Hah.

Yeah, I kind of said, "wow, I keep promising and not delivering... let's do something less creatively taxing".

That and constantly having headphones on and thus getting pinged on songs helps.

Well, that's why it's such an awesome idea... you don't have to 'create' anything, just pull it all together. So it's still a sweet gift, with much less down-time. XD

You realize I have half of your AU written, right? Elena shows up in Garden and becomes an Instructor with Quistis and... well, I think it'll be sweet. XD

... I might kill her.

That's my fault, actually. I was looking for Tseng and Elena pics to make a cover for [personal profile] lassarina's EP, and I ran across that and went "WTF WHUT?"

And then proceeded to make fun of Nomura's lack of new designs and start saying, "omg, that looks like so and so's kid".

But then she said, "THEY'RE ALL SNAPETTES" and we died laughing.

I need to get her more stuff to do, clearly.

It is kind of sad, really.

Well, Amano wasn't much better. YES THEY ARE BLONDE AND HAVE PRETTY HAIR AND FAR TOO MUCH JEWELRY (except Rydia).

This is the problem with having the same designer for a whole bunch of a series. XD

IT IS ACCOMPLISHED.

I love liner notes.
