*small directionless noises* [stunt

I am not very good with the thinking this week, apparently. Or no better than usual. Paper didn't get finished (of course it didn't) so that's 15% of my grade for that course gone and I can't bring myself to e-mail the professor to talk to her, because she was more than generous with me and I still dropped the ball, and I've gone back to my old strategy of "ignore my problems and they'll go away" again. The trouble with that strategy is that it is in fact true - eventually, if I keep dragging my feet, all my problems will go away - because I'll fail out of my classes and not graduate on time, and I don't know why that doesn't seem to be getting through to the rest of me.

Also I can barely drag myself out of bed in the mornings, but that probably has more to do with not sleeping due to staying up late trying to finish things that I inevitably never finish anyway. Ugh.

And part of the burying response is becoming so absorbed in fandom that I feel like doing nothing but flailing about my shows and drawing cracky fanart all day. This is not a productive response.

Here, this Johari window thing seems to be going around. Give mine a try? Start your own?

*cuddles* At least you've been going to your classes? I've been skipping a lot of mine recently, which is a brilliant idea, considering HELLO MIDTERMS, HOW YA DOING. I'm actually supposed to be studying for one right now, since it's at 9:30 tomorrow morning. Whoops.

But the nice weather is just so temptinggggggg!!! And seriously, when the options are a) go to boring class you have no interest in, sit inside in windowless classroom on computer, or b) go GALLOPING THROUGH THE FIELDS ON MOTHERFUCKING HORSES WHILE THE SUN GLEAMS WARMLY OVER YOUR SHOULDERS.... how is that even an ARGUMENT?!

Fuck it. We're still awesome. *hugs*

Iiiii actually ended up skipping class today. And Monday. So not doing so great with that either. And I fortunately don't have any midterms left, except for the essay I didn't do, but I still have that essay and the one from last semester, and I can't get an extension for anything this time because everyone's expecting me to graduate on time, and I just want to curl up in bed and not do anything and wait for everything to go away.

*hugs back* Thanks. I needed that hug.

Just think about how close to done you are. You're halfway through your last semester of the year. You can do this. Fandom will still be there when you're done, and you'll enjoy it so much more when you're not hiding in it. Hang in there, muppet. You can get it together. What's done is done, so brush yourself off and move on. It'll be okay.

And now, for no real reason, here's She-Hulk and Red Hulk in a wrestling match:

That video did make my day a lot better, thank you. XD Marvel heroes engaged in pro wrestling! Why aren't there more fanworks based on this principle?

It's the fact that I'm almost finished that's the problem, sort of - I have to graduate this semester, Mom's already sent out invitations and everything, and how humiliating will it be if I have to take an extra semester after all that?

But I can do this. I can. Willpower, rah!

*hugs* Thank you. I needed that.

I just got an essay back. It's worth 30% of my mark for that module. I got 40, which is the barest pass mark. It's also the maximum mark I could achieve, having handed it in a week late. Had I handed it in on time, it would have been worth 62, a healthy enough 2:1. How much do I hate myself? Yeah, I know where you're coming from.

Hang in there, you can make it through! *hugs*

Oh, I'm sorry that happened to you. I hope there's still a way to pick up your grade from that?

Thanks, though. *hugs back* You hang in there too.
