Just a quick entry before I dash off to Mythology and my usually-busy Wednesday... I think I may have figured out the whole next-semester's classes thing. Aside from the usual Journalism and Japanese language classes I mentioned before, the class that I need to take for Study Abroad needs to be Japanese/Asian-studies, involing philosophy, politics, art, culture, religion, or history. I found AAS 210, which would fulfill Section D of my Lower-Div GEs, works as an Asian History course for Study Abroad, and would probably count toward the Journalism Department's 80/65 rule, as it's a Humanities-type class. I checked out the other class the Japanese department chair recommended to me (aside from FLIT 455, which does nothing for my GEs, even the upper division ones -I think- or my minor), HIST 493, and it's at a ridiculous time of night and it doesn't seem to fulfill any upper-division GEs either! Surprising...
So unless I find some other alternative, AAS 210 it is! (It's taught online, too!)
I managed to get a good chunk of WDKY22 done last night, and with some luck, you'll be seeing it on
betasquad within the next couple of days. I think I'm moving too fast for any betas, though! ;_; Alas, everyone is so busy with their IRLs that they can't spare me a glance! *frets* S'no big deal. :P
And now for the weird:
(1) I went to bed just after 3am this morning, which is a bit standard for me, considering I'm nocturnal and proud of it. I was still trying hard to distract myself from traitorous, brain-bleach-worthy thoughts of him, so I read lots of Hermione/Draco (thanks
a_white_rain for reminding me of my HP OTP!) fics and worked on other things.
Well, I was surprised to see my light blinking on my phone. I thought to myself "Yeah, you wish it was Scott, but it probably wasn't. It was probably Mom. I should call her," but when I checked my missed calls, it WAS Scott. And he even left a voice message... not very coherent, if you ask me, but he mentioned something that does disturb me a little: back when we were together, I let him use me as a subject of some of his photo shoots. I don't mind most of the pictures, but some I'd rather NOT be put into a show, let alone sold to some stranger. If it's one without my face, then I'm fine, but otherwise... >_> I think I have the right to ask him not to do something like that without my permission, right? I mean, even if I let him take the picture of me, I didn't think it would go outside of his classroom!
Yeah, well he also mentioned some random things about wondering how I was and yadda yadda, and I'm really trying hard not to care, but I'm wondering if I'm coming off as a bit of a bitch. I tried to imagine telling him what's bothering me, and knowing him, he would just say something that would upset me, like "Well, maybe we just shouldn't hang out anymore." We hardly "hang out" as it is, but him forcing himself to stay away from me when he COULD and probably SHOULD see me would rightfully upset me, just because I see no point in me getting so stressed (ah, acne!) and upset over it. He's leaving, I don't know when or where to, but I have to accept it and do something with my life.
(2) This morning I woke up at 8:45am with every intention of taking a shower, getting dressed, having a nice, warm bowl of Cream of Wheat, and then heading out to class for my Japanese test. Some time after I shut off the alarm, I blacked out. It wasn't until I heard Grandpa banging on my door at 9:40 that I even realized WTF was going on, and I seem to recall waking up while SITTING. So I've come to the following conclusion:
I was-
(a) kidnapped by aliens
(b) possessed by a ghost
(c) really f'in tired
And since I don't feel that tired, I'm leaning toward (b). Your thoughts?
