stunt_muppet at 02:16am on 03/01/2009 under english/science otp, epic fail, life, social life, writingIn the past three days, I have seen various friends, transferred my iTunes library to a new computer (Kayliesaur and Sweet Bean, I may need to re-pinch the music I pinched from you, since it didn't burn properly because I'm an idiot who cleared the files) and done my laundry. Oh, and spent much of a New Year's Party explainging what exactly I'm hoping to do with a Bio-English double major.
Oh, and showing Brother The Ark in Space, which he quite liked even though he mocked the Wirrn model. I think he also liked Harry, but I can't tell because now that he's a Teenager OMG he doesn't talk about things anymore.
That is the sum total of what I have accomplished. Other than that, I've pretty much loafed, ate, watched TV, and gained weight for the winter hibernation. Very little writing, because my brain is foggy, and anyway Mom gets mad when I spend too much time on the computer. She thinks my computer habits are making me deeply socially incompetent and need to be broken.
Admittedly, this is probably true.

fandom_stocking closes in three days. I have accomplished one stocking-stuffer fic. Gah.
Point is, two or three is the most I'm looking at right now, so for the friends I inevitably miss: If I don't get to your stocking, feel free to comment here with a fandom, a pairing, a character, a prompt, whatever and I'll write you a comment-length fic. No guarantees as to when I'll finish it, but I hate defaulting on ficathons or not giving a gift in a gift exchange, so...if you want it, there it is.
On another note, I go back to school in seven days. Despite doing nothing useful around here, I can't help but dread going back. Maybe I'll be more enthusiastic when the time arrives, but I just know that I'll start off the new school semester all ambitious and full of good intentions and end up doing the same thing I do every year. It's not that I hate school so much as I hate failing - not failing at classes but failing at improving myself.
My grades are supposedly up, either today or early tomorrow. I haven't looked at them. IF I DON'T SEE THE CHEMISTRY!FAIL IT DIDN'T HAPPEN. *hides head*
Bleh, my first post of the year and it's all emo and gloomy and slug-like. I really am going to update with content and things at some point, I promise.

I'm like that about my grades, too. I'll delay checking them for weeks. And I don't check my evals, for fear of being embarrassed (in a good or bad way).

because he's a heathen? Did he like the secondary cast? The script? Does he like Baker The First better than or as much as Troughton or Pertwee or Eccleston or Tennant (who are the only other Doctors he's seen)? What do I show him from here? What does he want to see more of?Of course, I could just do what I was planning to do originally and show him the stuff I like, the hell with being objective and playing to his interests. XD
I wouldn't have checked at all if my passing or failing Chem didn't dictate which classes I can take this semester and whether or not I can complete my double major in time. As it is, I tend not to check my grades during the year at all, and only check my finals when my folks poke me sufficiently. It's silly, because I know the grades are there regardless and I'm just delaying the inevitable, but dammit, I want the inevitable to stay away from me as long as possible.

I say go with that.
Ah. That does put an unfortunate wrench in some lovely plans, yes.

That is exactly how I feel about Capstone. Solidarity in hiding from grades!
