Uhh... I don't even.
I caught up with Homestuck. It took me about two weeks. It's so awesome! I think I may have developed a slight obsession. Possibly because I have so many people to talk about it with, and to show me videos and things. I've been reading fanfiction/fan adventures when I should probably be doing homework. Goddamn it Andrew Hussie, why are you putting things off to the 25th? I want an update now! *is impatient and fond of instant gratification* Also, I just caught up to the most recent update of Promstuck, which spun off of a beautiful marching band AU and is illustrated and wonderful. But... fuck.
The romantic tensions in that story are like a roller coaster. They're adorable and sweet, then angry and just... argh. Kind of tense. And going through it as the characters confessed their feelings and everything... something just kind of hit close to home. Quite probably because I'm crushing on the friend who introduced me to Homestuck, who is also reading Promstuck and checking frequently for updates, and who I totally associate with Homestuck things. Again, fuck romance. I mean, I guess it's great that we're actually hanging out a lot this week because we keep both showing up to the same events but... I just don't know. I need to stop dwelling on this. Damnit, fanfiction is not supposed to affect me this much. It doesn't help anything that I'm currently Facebook chatting with the guy who has a prominent crush on me, and he was talking about it earlier and I just felt awful because as he was describing his crush on me I was thinking of someone else...
In lighter news, club stuff is awesome! It's Coming Out Week for Pride and so I've been going to things all week long. Monday I was Safe Zone trained and now have an awesome sticker (still waiting for the bracelet) and Tuesday was Coming Out Forum. All the stories were awesome, some definitely more lighthearted than others. I ended up talking during the open mic session, much like everyone else, even though I totally didn't intend to, even though there wasn't much to talk about and I just kind of rambled for a while, and it was unexpectedly sort of intense. Today was a LGBTQIAetc. history presentation, which was educational and really cool. Tomorrow they're showing "I Love You, Phillip Morris" in the theater (and Pirates 4 over the weekend omg) and Friday is the drag race/BBQ. I'm excited! Also tonight was a Dumbledore's Army meeting and we're having a Yule Ball in January, a flash mob in the UC to promote for it, Quidditch on Saturday for family weekend, we're getting t-shirts, and the Puff scavenger hunt is going to be totally awesome.
Ooh, also. I went home last weekend, which was actually really nice. I saw my sister's play twice (Halloween melodramas ftw!) went to IKEA (which was kind of depressing and tiring, made me wish I had my own room) and Evangeline's (which was amazing as usual and I got so much cool stuff- I'm gonna be a pirate for Halloween!), and chilled at home. It was great getting to see everyone again. It's been over a month, I think, and seems pretty long. Switched out some of my warm weather clothes for cool weather clothes because fall weather is finally arriving! So in general things are pretty great, even if there are moments when it feels like they suck intensely. I'm just going to try to keep looking forward to the good times and forget about the bad. :)
(I should probably have been doing my homework tonight. Fuck you, homework.)
