this time, baby, I'll be bulletproof.
Woooooo first day of the semester. Iiiii am very tired and very not used to getting up at 8:30am! Should be an interesting semester.
Updating from the library between classes as our internet spontaneously stopped working last night and we haven't had any luck fixing it yet. Annoying!
Have only been to Japanese so far, but I'm pretty jazzed about it this semester. Sensei is otokoyaku-height and this is reason enough for me to find her endearing. (She also doesn't have that air of latent batshittery about her like Yoshimura-sensei did.) Requisite Kid in An Anime Hat (Kon from Bleach) but mostly not too weeaboo of a class. The good dude I did my final oral presentation with last semester is in my class again, which is nice. There is also a girl who reminds me SO MUCH of wao_wao! And I have already found people to pick out kanji that look like faces with, so I think that's a good sign.
It feels like it's been so long since I've been on campus. I don't know what it was about this break but it felt like it's been such a long time since everyone was all up here together! Really looking forward to everyone getting back.
Which reminds me-- why have I never seen this five college academic calendar before? Makes planning shenanigans a bit easier. (But really though, all of us having spring break at the same time means we're going to need to do something AWESOME.)
Also, weirdest thing... I'm finding that my formspring is... getting trolled? I mean, just a little, but it's like... more than anything I am perplexed by WHY anyone even still cares enough about me to troll me ahahaha. Anus diameters and rape babies were pretty tame, then there was the one with-- WHO EVEN STILL TRIES TO CALL ME A FURRY ANYMORE IS IT STILL 2007. And then there was one that didn't even warrant a witty response, involving the most hilariously repulsive euphemism for female masturbation I have ever heard paired with an animated kids' movie, which are easily on the list of things in this word I find least sexually appealing ahahaha ohhh my god. I had to delete it, it was just TOO GROSS. I just. HOW CAN ANYONE ACTUALLY THINK THESE THINGS ARE TRUE ABOUT ME IDGI but it's.. well, it's entertaining.
The strangest part to me is that I've always allowed anonymous commenting on my almost-always-public livejournal, I don't even log IP anymore, so I guess I just wonder why no one would try to troll me here, if there are people who still have the inclination to? MAN WHATEVER formspring is a goldmine apparently.
Complete change of pace now, and it is a terrible transition from subject to subject, but I feel this is at least worth mentioning. Grandma's not doing well. They found out a few days ago that her OTHER hip has been broken for a while so they went in for surgery, and she just... hasn't been doing well since then. Mom flew out to Kansas City yesterday. She's officially DNR (do not resuscitate) so if things take a turn for the worse, that's that. I'm trying not to focus on it too much right now, but I'm also preparing myself for the reality that I may be flying out there very soon. Positive thoughts for her and Mom would be very much appreciated right now.
What a downer to end this entry on. Sorry about that.
