Okay, I? Have the best sister/girlfriend/bestfriend ever. I can't stay sad when I'm talking with Liss, even if I'm just being distracted by rarring over idiot people who try to kill feral cats by trapping them and then giving them to the Humane Society. WTF, people ( Read more... )

So. The attempt to return to Pomona failed. Well, actually, it went through successfully, everything went great, and then I had another breakdown, because the only options left open to me - correction. If I wanted to graduate from Pomona, then the only option that they would accept was one I couldn't stand. At all.

elwood012 : so you are still planning on coming back, then?
darksea : oh yes
elwood012 : that's good
darksea : I'm going to get a degree even if it kills other people
elwood012 : hopefully not too many other people...
elwood012 : I don't think that reflects well for letters of recommendation or PR material :p
darksea : it shouldn't kill any, but I won't be afraid to interpose a random red-shirt should it ( Read more... )

Well, I just lost the past week to computer problems. What were they, you ask?

I'm not sure I'm going to be ready to go back to school when the time comes, given the way I've been letting even things I actually want to do just... slide. Actually, these past couple of weeks have seen something of a backslide in my behavior/attitude: sleeping more, doing less, feeling apathetic/antipathetic about making an effort (to go sing, ( Read more... )

I am just back from the concert that was given by the chorus I am a member of, in Duke Chapel. Er, let me rephrase that.

Okay, so I've been singing with a women's chorus every monday for a while now. And our concert was today, in Duke Chapel. And I'm just back from it.

And thank god we had an intermission, because ( I nearly fainted )

I cleverly managed to combine the long-overdue bout of misery with the subject of Christmas. Please don't poke the humor, it is very brittle.

And once I alphabetize the second shelf, put the CDs in their better home (which I didn't think of before because I was reserving it for books, but it's now empty due to my mad library rearranging skillz or something) and lift the oversized manga to the overhead shelf, I think I'll be done ( Read more... )

Well. The first two steps of organizing my books are done, and I feel vindicated in taking time yesterday to clear off the top of my dresser and desk, because that's where my manga is currently stacked. I hadn't realized I had quite so many, and already I want more, because just picking them out of the jumbled stacks on the bed reminded me of ( Read more... )
