I know I haven't been posting in forever. I'm sorry. It's like I don't even know what to say anymore. I haven't been doing much fandom stuff at all (except reading Shakespeare :B), so the only thing I can really talk about is my life. And my life right now is college. So you get to hear about college.
College is... okay. It is hard being away from home and I miss people pretty badly. I have made two friends, one of whom is my roommate, although there are some people I'm also getting better acquainted with, but who knows.
I am taking Japanese II, which I though I would be pretty okay at, and I've got a decent grasp on reading and writing. But I've gotten myself into this loop where I completely freak out when it comes to speaking. Which means I looked like an idiot during my oral presentation today. I couldn't even answer the simple questions people asked at the end. And then I broke down, of course. I don't know what I'm going to do if it turns out I'm bad at Japanese. This is honestly the only thing I'm good at. On the bright side, now I get what Kurt Cobain meant when he sang "I'm worst at what I do best." So... there's that. :\
My other classes are less depression-inducing. My favorite is the one about adaptations of Shakespeare for children. I love Shakespeare and I love things I'm way too old for, so this is basically the perfect class for me. :D During our last class we watched parts of a couple movie versions of Midsummer. My notes from that consist of a half-finished drawing of Helena and the words "DEMETRIUS IS A CLOSETED HOMOSEXUAL".Come on, he totally is. Also as an extra-credit project, we get to make our own Shakespeare adaptations. I am doing a Midsummer high school AU, and I'm actually really inspired. So this has gotten me writing. Like, consistently. Which is very rare and kind of cool for me. :)
Oh, also I read the next four books of Scott Pilgrim. They are very different from the movie. Very different. I really don't know which one I like better. The books have more fleshed-out characters and super adorable art style, but the movie has a more concise plot and a Scott who is not a total jerk. So I am maybe leaning toward the movie there. Still love the art style though. 5/6 BOOKS COMPLETED
Oh hey! Here is a meme I stole from
amael_elen. I don't normally do this kind of meme but what the heck. Fill it out shite kudasai? (YEAH I AM ACING JAPANESE II)
YOU'RE ON MY FRIENDS LIST!:
I want to know 28 things about you. I don't care if we've never talked, never really clicked, or if we already know everything about each other. I really don't. You are obviously on my flist, so let me know with whom I'm friends!

Oh, thanks bro. :| The rest is all true though.
09. Do we know each other outside of LJ? Do we want to? No never met who the hell are you anyway?
That creeper who watches you in your sleep. :3
12. Would you tell me something painful if it was in my best interest?
MUSHROOM!NO SHUT UP OKAY JUST SHUT UP
16. You can have three wishes what are they? an end to war, a working well-implemented solution to reduce poverty, and cities on Mars (of humans, and we can travel back and forth easily, as to not jinx that wish)
Man these are super selfless, it's awesome. Even mine had some stuff for myself. :P
27. If I only had one day to live, what would we do together? (If you have no idea, just say something crazy, it'll entertain me!) With my freeze ray I would STOP the pain!
That's a freeze ray? I thought it was, like, a death ray. Or an ice beam.
28. Will you repost this so I can fill it out for you? I don't even know how you got that box thing you posted this in, but even if I did know, I don't know if I would

You don't have to do it though.

I figured to wish big because I know I'm awesome and I can have my way with the ladies and the dudes and I'll be rich one day and I can get all sorts of selfish things for myself and that if I have to wish for something, it'd probably be something I had no chance of getting any other way.
Oh, ice beams are all Johnny Snow.

That is smart thinking of you. Also that description of yourself is frighteningly accurate.
