blogging is weird now [September 17, 2007 @ 6:48pm] [ mood | tired ] [ music | telly - Scrubs ] feel like death, currently. i've been repeatedly waking up at 4:30 AM for the past few nights, almost going on a week now. drives me crazy, because i always take at least a hour to fall asleep regardless of the circumstances. so i've been waking up these past few days feeling ridiculously tired for no reason (even if i've gone to bed early) because 4:30 AM hates me or something. freakin weird. in any case, rather lame weekend followed by an average day of classes. Frau Riley taught us various murder verbs (such as ertrinken, which means to drink to death. slam er in front of a verb and it makes it "death by ____" apparently.) and then we talked about swastikas for a while. for some reason. (German class is a frickin mystery.) Japanese happened and then Cap'n T's class. (there is a long and probably-not-as-hilarious-as-i-think-it-is story behind Cap'n T. but that is not for today.) then i came home and wrote a short story about some genius chess kid drowning and that's been my day so far. got some homework for my short story class, but nothing big, and then i fully intend to watch Hikaru no Go until i pass out. or until i run out of episodes--whichever comes first. need to raid all surrounding libraries for Plato's Republic sometime, too. supposed to have read it for Yanming's class (i have him again this semester! for two classes! hooray!) by next Monday, and the Clemmons library currently does not come equipped with it, so now i have to do leg work. exciting. off to tackle homeworks now, though. Mondays are freaking awesome. PSYCHO KILLER (3) QU'EST-CE QUE C'EST?

hey everybody [September 14, 2007 @ 5:30pm] [ mood | blah ] feels weird updating after so long. dunno if i'll be able to keep this up, honestly. i'm really never online anymore. 'cept for checking my clemmons email or downloading shit. the internets are just full to the brim of shit that needs to be downloaded. really. glad it's friday--been sick all this week and still feeling the dregs of whatever sinus issue i had this time. probably wouldn't have lasted so long if i had actually, like, gone to the doctor or taken some medicine or something. pssh, common sense is silly. been having weird/sad/enlightening conversations with my dad of late. just thought i'd throw that in there. nothing much more to say really--thinking about studying abroad in Japan again, though. like maybe for next semester (year?) or something. it drives me crazy some days, though, how much i miss just being in Japan. even something like the frickin music they'd play when it was okay for pedestrians to cross the street, or riding the buses or the wonkyass fish paste aisle in the supermarket. also i miss the convenience stores. a lot. abrupt subject change. i'm taking a class called Structure of Fiction this semester, which is basically just Short Stories - You Get Grades For This Shit. the professor is pretty much made of awesome and sly witticisms and so far all we've been doing is reading and writing, which brings me much, much joy. it's weird to be writing again, but i really do enjoy it. it kinda sucks that i feel so utterly rusty at it though--i pretty much have no skillz, but at least i'm writing something. i'm just kinda dreading the workshopping. also taking the German, Japanese, and a handfull of other literature courses for mostly no reason. i don't believe i'm ever going to graduate. at least not unless i changed my major to Uselessness. i could get a freaking doctorate in that. oh, and also apparently there was some crap with LJ and fandom that happened? found a nifty post (somewhere) that linked to all the drama EVER that happened with that, and, true to my would-be major, spent one night reading up on it instead of memorizing a Japanese dialogue. because yes, i am awesome. so anyway, that's a lot of crap about nothing, mostly. if you glean anything interesting from it, power to you. mah D.Gray-man just finished downloading, though, so gotta get on that. also i have all the homework EVER to work on this weekend, so i should pretend to go work on that but really just draw people with extraordinarily large noses on the margins of my notes. because. PS. fan of Resident Evil or not, please please please have a look at THIS. it's better when read aloud, but either way is pretty much amazing. PSYCHO KILLER (5) QU'EST-CE QUE C'EST?

just so you know [July 07, 2007 @ 10:21pm] back from Japan. all kinds of shit happened back at home while i was away though--mostly stuff i don't want to to talk about. everything bad that could have happened did, pretty much. Japan was great, though. feel guilty for enjoying it so much while everything went to hell back home. really just not in a good mood now, nor feeling very coherent. not yet breaking hiatus because i just don't feel like playing catch-up with the internet right now, nor do i feel like becoming as addicted to it as i was prior to leaving. i wanted to let you guys know i was alive, though. so: hay everybody. been enjoying your summers? what've you all been up to?

HIATUS, YO. [May 05, 2007 @ 10:29pm] [ mood | crazy ] well, not entirely. might post a freak-out post some time tomorrow, but i'm not really planning on it, sooo... HIATUS plane leaves 9:06 Monday morning. will be coming back July 6th. well, granted that i even get off the ground. ( the very long, very angry story explaining why, if i ever visit Miami, i will more than likely blow up the passport offices ) but there you have it. that was Wednesday. the abridged version. [basically, take the amount of phone calls/emails that actually happened and divide it by two.] so, aside from freaking out about getting everything ready to go, i've been freaking out about if i will actually be able to go. BUT i am reassured that Williams-sensei will be there Monday and that he really does care about me and will fight for me to get on that plane if it comes down to it. at least, that's what i'm hoping. *emos for a bit* [RANDOM] happy late birfday, firebirdjones because i was wonky and forgot! [/RANDOM] so. hiatus. few things first: ONE: WHO WANTS POSTCARDS? because if you do, email me [becbet @ msn.com] your address and i will make every effort to send you one while i'm in Japan. [and still have monies...] there's a few of you i demand addresses from [because i'm silly and should have them already but don't]: Elizabeth, Angela, and Theresa. [and Annabelle, i'd love to send you one too, but if you're not comfortable handing out your address, that's cool too.] TWO: if i have internet access i will be maintaining a separate photoblog for my family. chances are, i won't have time to update both it and livejournal, so if you're interested, you should bookmark that blog, as i don't plan on touching LJ all summer. you can find said blog HERE. and that's it. gonna try and do some preliminary packing and head to bed. if i don't speak with you guys until i get back, i hope everyone has an awesome summer! *luff* p.s.: if the whole passport thing doesn't work out, i am going to feel very silly come Tuesday. p.p.s.: also Miami will die.

CHINESE MYTH DRAGON [May 02, 2007 @ 12:04am] [ mood | cheerful ] first of all: HOLYCRAPYAY. so much joy, guys; you have no idea. secondly: done with on-campus exams now. have an essay to email into sensei tomorrow, but it shouldn't be too bad. today i had Buddhism final first, and then by Chinese final Yanming had graded my Buddhism final and turned it back into me when i gave him my Chinese final. [you get any of that?] i got a 98. [FUCKIN WOO] he told me i got an A in the Buddhisms, so that's a nice mood-lifter. also got an A on my last Buddhism paper. Yanming told me i should have it published again and even tried to convince me to read it at an East Asian Studies convention next semester. i type say that in monotone, but really i'm pretty freakin psyched. i mean: read my paper in front of Asian Studies academics? ahdofhaor;ghowe;HOORAY! don't think i'd ever have the guts, but the idea is nice. it's a total ego boost that i really, really needed. Yanming also wanted to use my paper as a teaching tool for his English class in China this summer, which made my ego even happier. basically, went from utterly depressed, weepy emo-kid of yesterday to happy, optimistic non-emo-kid of today. which is why Yanming = win. in other news, i bought new shoes today. also i got a coke icee: more proof that today is a true day of wonder and UTTER JOY. [on the flipside: my passport came yesterday, but there is wonkyness with the name and it's just...ridiculous and long to explain so i won't. suffice it to say it's very depressing and potentially dangerous to actually getting to leave the airport. on top of that, Clemson is being a fucking retard again, and so i won't be able to pay off the rest of my tuition until after i've left for Japan. this is something that makes me irrationally angry every time i even think about it, so i will not explain it either. tryin' to keep the good mood goin', and all that.] also, Williams-sensei is totally nice and amazing when not in class setting or talking to you about Chinese. makes me miss the days i loved him as much as i do Yanming now. + LOL, MADNESS.
