Just for the record, guys, I don't advise staying up until 2AM reading Final Fantasy XII fanfiction, however amazing that fanfiction may be. No matter how nervous you are about something. You'll probably get to sleep, or at least La La Land (close enough) by midnight if you put yourself to bed around nine ( Read more... )

Our schooling doesn't officially end until Friday, even if tomorrow is the last days of classes. So, can somebody explain to me why we should have to hand in the locks for our lockers on Thursday morning, necessitating the need for us to lug the entire contents of our lockers home on Wednesday night, thereby risking back injuries for everyone ( Read more... )

I wish the weekend was longer. I can get five hours of study done in the morning, but after eleven o'clock, my productivity goes way down. Forget trying to get anything done past three in the afternoon. Maybe it'll be different in school, but there's a different set of distractions there, so I don't know.

I really wish I'd done 3/4 Art last year.

One of our tasks during the exam is to analyse an artwork from a selected number, which are in a coloured insert in the exam paper. They choose a wide variety of artworks, from ancient sculpture to modern pop art and just about everything else you can think of. Including movie stills.

Last year they had a ( Read more... )

Since I find it difficult to concentrate on my study while listening to contemporary music, tonight I'm recording all of my mother's classical CDs into my iTunes library. Then I will create a mega playlist of classical music to listen to while I study.

Let's hope this works.

I'm really, really, not fond of Daylight Savings. I'm at my most effective in the morning -- in fact, these days it's about the only time I can get effective revision done -- so losing those few hours because my internal clock is screwed up is not good at all. After I get home from school I'm often unable to focus (case in point being this ( Read more... )

Augh. What a day.

Here, guys, have a meme:

Ask me a fandom, and I will tell you:
+ OTP
+ Runner-up
+ Honorable mention(s)
+ Crack pairing(s)
+ Ship everyone else seems to like, but I don't

'That' being the calculator-assisted Maths Methods exam. Hoo boy. That is easily going to be my worst mark in these practice exams, I can tell. Between the bits of theory that I couldn't identify, the questions where I couldn't figure out how to approach it, and the question where I didn't even understand what they were asking for (like the one ( Read more... )

No analysis tonight -- sorry, guys. I haven't been feeling my best today, and I'm too tired to begin.

I've been trying to sketch out an image that's been plaguing me for a while. I found a great stock photos for two of the poses I need. Problem is that one of them is the wrong angle and the wrong perspective, so I've been staring at it intensely for ( Read more... )

Guys? I'm bored, and it's been too long since I did a theories post. Since I also need to practice my English analysis, I'm offering you guys the chance to select a cutscene from Dirge and have me formally analyse it according to what I've learned this year. I can't promise that my own headcanon won't sneak in, but I'll try to stick to what's ( Read more... )
