Feelings to give away. Any takers?
I knew becoming a football fan will screw with my mind. Last night Poland forfeited their chances to get into the quarter-finals for the first time in bloody forever by losing 0:1 to the Czech Republic. I didn't even care about football until this Euro 2012 tournament (which we co-host with Ukraine this year) and yet I was glued to the screen and shouting abuse. And now I'm feeling down together with the rest of the nation. This really was a disappointment. Especially since basically the whole country had their champagne ready.
And my Internet went down, forcing me to watch Episode 10 of "Korra" this afternoon in a pancake restaurant, making a spectacle of myself in public. And I'm afraid I was pretty emotional. Especially at the end...
I will NOT cry, dammit. I will not. Except that I totally will, every time Mr. General Iroh Jr. opens his mouth. There's something profoundly wrong with Zuko's voice coming out of a different character in this universe... And I knew that Dante Basco was supposed to be there, but I hoped he would voice some Zuko flashbacks or something. This... this was quite a shock and I'm still not over it and feeling like curling in a ball and having a cry. Just... NO.
There's something really wrong with me for having such a reaction.
It doesn't help that I'm on my own now, my sister having left for a 4-month internship in Greece. She's been gone for weeks now, but I really miss her and this week's been the worst so far. The quiet and loneliness is getting to me. *sigh*
BUT! There's a silver lining on the horizon, namely a dear friend from Michigan whom I haven't seen in a really long time will come and visit in a few days! I'm insanely excited about it.
Now back to studying for my last exam on Modern British Literature...
(Chapter 4 of "Substitute" being written even now, meaning that Chapter 3 should be up in a short while.)
