Why do I forget completely obvious definitions
I wish I had paid more attention to certain courses when I was taking them. Wait, no, that's not true, I was paying tons of attention - I just couldn't force any knowledge through my cement-like brain.
Admittedly, I could look back on that time during the interval that 'Shikata ga nai' was my sanity-preserving mantra and think that at least my brain had recovered a little, so I had an excuse.
...I wish everyone could just do over the times in their lives they spent badly depressed. *sigh*
(Okay, for some people that might be like the Harry Potter fics where Harry, age thirty, wakes up and he's back in the cupboard but knows everything. I've been relatively lucky on that front.)
Eh, it isn't as bad as I feared. I did retain some stuff by osmosis, I just... didn't recall what it was attached to. :\
I'm uncertain whether to be frustrated that I'm still having trouble understanding how everything hangs together or to be infuriated that I thought it was so incomprehensible all this time when I can understand how ALMOST all of it hangs together. *sigh* Sorry about this, but I needed to vent. I've been working enough (despite some surfing just to loosen up my brain) that I skipped Nuzlocking for tonight, and it irritated me.
(And skipped POSTING my Nuzlocke update to my Inverse Red thread, too. Which really grates, since I have three DIFFERENT screens of my Snorlax tanking Selfdestructs from Voltorbs/Electrodes, and Selfdestructs are kind of an in-joke after the hell that was Rock Tunnel. And generally Silph Co. was hilariously easy with the type-effectiveness-reversal nerfing the living daylights out of Rival, and... yeah... :\
Plus, I got the Randomized Silver thread's unanimous permission to use Raikou, which I've been looking forward to using after I caught it with freakish luck, so... bleh. Work is work, but today's just been a really wonky day. Sorry. For some weird reason, I need to rant.) This entry is mirrored at http://guardians-song.dreamwidth.org/179711.html. Comment wherever you like. Just remind me to get off the internet and do my homework.
