Week 1 = failed
So much for being a good student this semester. I'm supposed to be in Mandarin tutorial right now. (It's the first week so there's a chance there's no tutorial, but I highly doubt that, it's a full-year course.) Sage wanted breakfast and then I got more than I could finish in time for class. *sigh*
Would be downloading the audio files and stuff to do Mandarin now on my own, but wireless is being reaaaallly slow today. And Andres' router isn't up yet; he and Jess aren't back til tomorrow morning. All my extra clothing and some of my notebooks are in Jess' room, but it's okay, I've made do. Picked up Sage from the airport yesterday. Left my cellphone in Chil's car though. And couldn't do the gift card exchange with someone because he was way late and I had class.
Have a few choices for which extra course to take this semester. Could do Children's Lit, but captals_avatar warns me against the lure of that. Also, I suuckkkk lots and writing essays. Like I'm still kinda high-school quality, lol. Humanities essays I cannot do. I want to take Urban Waste Management, but I don't have the prereqs for the course. So that leaves Self-Consciousness (social psychology) or Human Memory (cognitive psych). I think the former appeals to me just a little bit more, but I really like the prof for the latter. But it's more that I'm pretty iffy on the prof for the former. I like courses with discussion, yes, but not so much that we don't even finish the slides on the first day of class after being told we wouldn't use all 3 hours of class. (I admittedly am also worried about her marking, because I really don't feel like spending a lot of time on this course, and while Human Mem has more assignments, I feel they're less hard to do.) So I'll wait it out for next week and see. Of course, this means if i take Human Memory, I'll be 4 chapters behind. Oh well, whatever. I like reading, right?
Alternatively, I could take Self-Consciousness and audit Urban Waste Management. But the auditing will likely fall through.
Was in a weird mood last night, like my heart (and just my heart) was restless for some reason. The night before, I was reading an old fic on MoR and was so happy that it still hit me in all the right places, had amazing impact, still met my expectations. Still made me hurt, still made me cry. I hope it always does that. I always wonder about some of the old fics I liked because I had a lot less to compare them to then - would I still like them now, or would I be disappointed? Anyways, there are a lot of old fics I don't remember, and last night I was just going on a feeling. That's all I could remember about the fic, was a feeling, and I had no idea how to look for it. But I finally got a hold of a name and ended up remember a good number of old fics. Yay = ) I haven't actually looked for all of them yet, but hopefully they're still all up.
I've been getting random fic ideas, even one in class on Monday. I feel like they're all too big for me, I need something smaller right now. Anyways, I fell asleep last night reading a light fic to calm down. (I hope I didn't keep Sage up with the laptop.) I didn't finish it since I fell asleep, so I guess I'll go to it now. *waves*
