+ Tom is not answering any of my text messages, which means I have been stuck on campus. My next class is at 2:25, so I don't have much longer to wait, but still. My notes were at home so I haven't been able to study. Fail. This also means, obviously, we didn't go job hunting today - but the school is having a career fair tomorrow on campus, so (provided I can find appropriate attire that still fits me) we will be going to that, as well as putting in other applications around town. I'm kind of irritated because I wanted to go home to eat lunch, but now I won't be able to grab any food until I get back at 5:30 - if he remembers he's supposed to pick me up then, of course.
+ WRITING THINGS~ (My FMA Big Bang fic)
a.) This is getting weirdly like Cinderella as I have no decided to include a step-mother and two step (or half?) sisters. That's... Okay, well, that's where the similarity ends, but still. Actually, to try to subvert that, I want it to seem like maybe the step-sisters (Flora and Isobel?) are "evil," when really they're just distant from Riza. I mean... with her father - who I sort of want to paint in this story as obsessed but still almost... dignified? that's not the word I want but I can't quite articulate what I mean - she's probably not going to be the most well socialized child in the world. Also, the two girls will probably have a slight apprehension (for... reasons. I will think of them.) towards alchemy, so even though they love their father/step-father, they don't like his work and when they talk about it and Riza defends it or whatever, it sort of alienates her.
b.) I have decided to follow through with this and create a plot! (That probably should have been point A. Oh well.) I'm thinking that it should focus on the alchemy, specifically. I don't know, though. I want to somehow tie in the flame alchemy, but I don't know if it should be that... someone wants it or what. I guess I'll just start writing and hope something comes through from that.
