Finished off my translation about an hour ago but got lazy. Still need to do some memorization of forms. Oops?
What needs to be done soon:
1. Aliens: proposal for the final paper, due Friday
2. Middlemarch: readings and Moodle posting, due Monday
3. Middlemarch: paper proposal, due April 1
4. Arthurian Legends: paper #2, due April 5 (Not sure if there's another paper proposal due somewhere in here.)
5. Middlemarch: first draft, due April 22
6. Job applications somewhere in here. Plus followups.
7. Altair Mag. Submissions for it are due April 10, and I need a cool way to announce it. I'm thinking filk. Any recs for songs?
Fun times. Luckily, Middlemarch's paper only needs to be 16 to 20 pages long, but I still have to finish the book eventually.
On a lighter note, I've started a couple of anime series recently, just for kicks and because I need to abuse YouTube as much as possible in the time I've got left. Right now, I'm watching:
Spice and Wolf
Admittedly, I wanted to see it because Dani recced it, and so far, it's pretty cool. I definitely like the mythology part of it, but given that I've only seen the first episode, I can't pass too much judgement over the series just yet, I think. However, I'm looking forward to seeing where they go with this kinda-sorta-a-god partnered up with a mortal. A wolf god, no less.
Toradora!
The most ridiculous series I've seen since Ouran, and I love it and Taiga already. Enough said.
And that's if I'm not playing Heart Gold. (lol, transitions -- who needs 'em?) There were a couple days when I decided Dani and Jer were more important than playing a video game, but now? On the bus to and from Hampshire, that awkward hour between classes and before dinner, when I'm in the library and don't have anything better to do...
...And I'm still only at the Rocket takeover plot. lol, me.
Current team is composed of:
Washington [Brave Onix, M] @ lvl. 35
- Sandstorm
- Rock Polish
- DragonBreath
- Earthquake
I'm really starting to regret letting him forget Rock Throw. My initial thought was, "Well, I hate Clair, so THIS IS TOTALLY A GOOD IDEA." No. No, it wasn't.
Bayou [Lonely Feraligatr, M] @ lvl. 35
- Crunch
- Ice Fang
- Surf
- Bite
Right now, I should note that I really didn't care about trying to get decent natures or a female or whatnot. I just wanted to effing play, man. And I figured that since these two are male, I can just pass TMs and HMs whenever I actually try to build a team.
Kenya [Hasty Fearow, F] @ lvl. 34
- Agility
- Fury Attack
- Pursuit
- Aerial Ace
I totally did not just steal this off the guard north of Goldenrod. What're you talking about?
Georgia [Bashful Ampharos, F] @ lvl. 35
- ThunderPunch
- Charge
- Discharge
- Thunder Wave
For God's sake, Georgia, learn something that isn't an Electric-type move!
And a coupla HM slaves. I'd replace them with something cooler and more useful, but I haven't found that cool and useful potential team member yet. I mean, there's the red Gyarados and a bunch of stuff I have on Diamond, but I want to keep Bayou.
Also, the Pokewalker is amazing. Just saying. (I have a Gastly on it at the moment, but I'm saving up watts for unlocking all the non-event areas. At least 5k watts a day, baby!)
Finally on the fangirl news, guess what's about halfway done! I do believe I've successfully clawed my way out of my funk. Hopefully, anyway.
