"I'm not dead yet"
But I am ready for school to be out. . .
I'm finished with my college applications, except for a scholarship app or two that I really don't want to do. I was deferred by the school I applied early to yesterday, which means I have to wait till April 1st to hear anything from anywhere.
I must confess, I read Twilight. In lieu of letting my friends drag me to the movie, and only after one of the more cynical ones promised me it wasn't that horrible. And it wasn't that bad, I thought, but then again my taste in books can be questionable (I enjoyed David Eddings, for crying out loud). I can at least see how teenage girls might get wrapped up in it (the only character that intrigued me at all was Alice, however). Out of morbid curiosity, I confirmed that (poorly written) yaoi fanfiction does exist for Twilight, which is ironic on so many levels.
On the other hand, there's Mélusine. Which is in fact made of awesome. And in which the ridiculously pretty character at least makes up for it by being an asshole and insane. And for which not all the yaoi is fanfiction, but anyway. . .
Over Christmas, my goal is to investigate the Heisig method for learning kanji. We'll see.
