Yay! Semester completed. Break time is now! Okay, so I've already been home for close to two days, but Saturday evening and Sunday I was spending time with my family. Today is the first day I get to be home alone at all.
The end of the semester seems to have gone okay, but I'll wait until grades are out to say for certain. There were a few interesting things that happened in the last days of class. In Latin class, our professor gave us this wonderful quote: "If you're going to be a filthy manwhore, at least go to a prostitute." For context, he was talking about a certain incident involving Cato the Elder. Also, because he was only here for a semester, he gave us all handshakes on the last day. It was kinda sad, since he was a really fun and really good professor. In Japanese class, our professor showed us
this video, which I had already seen before because one of my friends showed it to me. It was still especially funny, though, because she keep saying 「違う、違う」 throughout the video. And in Greek class, in the very last class, our professor was talking about some job interview he had and was saying that he would pretend to be Italian and speak with a ridiculous Italian accent, which led to him running around the classroom while singing the Mario song. He also did the song that plays when Mario gets an invincibility star.
On Wednesday last week, I learned about the sale on CDJapan and bought the P3 and P4 2011 calendar and Arashi's All the Best 1999-2009 album. So of course THE NEXT DAY preorders go up for the Scene tour dvd. :/ I still preordered it from YesAsia, of course. (I had a coupon to use ^_^) Well, my order from CDJapan is arriving tomorrow! Since I picked the FedEx shipping option because it was the fastest and was surprisingly, less expensive than some of the other shipping options, I got a recorded message from them today telling me that it should be coming tomorrow (which I already knew from the tracking). And on the way home, my parents took me to Mitsuwa! I ate katsudon and bought more magazines. <3
So one of my friends lent me a book, Clockwork Angels, during Thanksgiving Break, and since I didn't have time to read it all before leaving for winter break, she's letting me borrow it over break too. I was reading more of it yesterday, and I think I especially love the dialogue. I'm getting close to halfway through it, and it's a big book, so I'll probably finish it quickly. She also recommended some Harry Potter fanfiction for me to read. I don't read much in that fandom usually, so it should be interesting, lol.
