The web is such a vast place, one cannot spend time hooked to one or sites, oh dear god no!
Anywho I have been lately addicted to one of those stupid browser based vampire Rps, now I'm in two of them. It's a lot more fun than Ravenblack, it's called Reign of Blood.
Two weeks ago, I forgot to update here that I got to go to a conference thing in UC Irvine were I presented some research thing I did-along with 120 or so other honors students from CCs in various parts of California. It was fun but a lot of anxiety, we were all in small classrooms, unfortunately not many people came to were I was assigned to present because I was in the upper floor and not the lower floor and only two people presented in my room and my session(it was divided to three sessions with 2-3 people per classroom per session, each presentation was about 12 minutes long). The cafeteria was great, along with advertisement cards on the table that even had a mock newsletter thing with lolcat photos. There is a section of UCI were the buildings are named after places in Middle Earth XD.
My presentation was based on a paper I did last semester in why people choose alternative medicine, I tried to be as objective as possible and rung out many "smart" sounding words at it. Other people's topics were more interesting I think, like someone did one on hydrodynamic energy, how do we judge our morality, the idealized woman no longer being a whole woman, suicide rates in Northern Canada, dying ethnic cultures, solving the problem of evil in the bible, Karma and Platonic Idealism, Eastern Philosophy and Shakespeare's King Lear, the cultural identity of a group of Mexican Immigrants that come from a specific area in Mexico, etc. But in the end we all get to type up the abstracts and get them published in some journal thing.
As for you guys, I just got caught up in what you're up to. I checked huorielara's sketches, Doz is having a hard time at A levels, Steph I saw your FIERCE photos, and manji is feeling better, I owe firehorsey a comment, etc etc.
I'm still here folks, haven't dropped dead yet.
But I'm also getting quickly tired of LJ, as you can see by this delay, sometimes I just don't feel like typing here what goes on in my life all the time, even if it very important or very big.
uci,
you guys,
life,
