There is no reason for the title of this entry. I'm just bored. And sitting in Harper because it doesn't gnaw on my soul as much. Poor soul. Oof... I'm already so tired. I did so much stuff yesterday... ahh! I really didn't want to get out of bed this morning, but unfortunately now that my Sosc class is in the SS building, I can't leave at ten til and still get there on time (I leave at twenty-til, and I get there with about two minutes to spare. Stupid bus routes!). I'm spending so much more time on campus this quarter. But that's a good thing, really. And I'm bringing my computer along with me now, so I'm less tempted to go back to the dorm between classes. Because it's so hard to leave again.

I think I might end up switching my bio discussion to Wednesday. That will naturally mean that on Wednesday I've got class until 12:30, then discussion from 2:30-3:20 and compsci lab from 3:30-4:50 and then physics discussion from 7-8... but I think I'd rather just get it all done in one day. (We get partners for compsci lab now, and I am so happy about that. I really, really hated sitting in lab trying desperately to figure something out and trying to use that stupid useless help file and getting nowhere). Wednesdays and Thursdays are going to kill me. If I get cast for anything weekends are not going to exist. Then again, they didn't exist last quarter, either. So this may just be fun. I mean, theatre doesn't involve injuring myself and running for miles and miles. Hehehe. Not that I don't miss jumping. But oof... not again right now, no. I'm much less likely to get mad at theatre and blame it for my bad grades.

... I should probably go find lunch soon. My stomach was growling in sosc, and though I was amused by it I don't imagine the people around me were. It's sort of more boring now... it's going slow like Hum did last year. I hope this quarter it isn't going to be miserable, but I'm really not liking the way the prof's running the class now. It's too structured for the way we're used to arguing with each other. And I think if anyone got up and tried to draw diagrams of houses on the board she'd probably fail us or something. Sigh. And no TA this quarter, either. No fun!

I sort of want to go check callbacks... and I sort of don't. It's that whole definitive end thing... not good. But I've got to go over to the Reynold's Club to find food anyway, so off I go, I guess. Ahh! I want to take a nap instead, but it's still two and a half hours before I can. Freaking schedule. Ah well, this time next week I'll probably be trying to finish my physics homework and won't have time to complain.

...

I need to stop sitting here laughing at things that no one else can see. But really, how do you keep a straight face when you read something like this?

"Well, I've heard much about you Harry. We have much in common. You see, Voldemort killed my parents the same night he killed yours. I survived the Crucio curse too."
"Wow! I didn't know that. Sorry for asking, but......why are your ears pointy?" Harry asked.
"I am an Elf." Legolas said.

Seriously... bad fanfiction has got to be some of the most amusing stuff ever written.

[Edit a few days later: Oh, and this is my 800th entry. Booyah!]

Not so boring anymore!

Okay, I finally got fed up and played around with the style here. It just frustrates me that you can't make the background fixed in this style. Grr... Other than that... euh... at least it's different. And all Dante's array in the background and much less blue and stuff. It matches most of my icons better, methinks. Hehehe. And it looks cooler. Like I acutally tried or something. Well, tried with my very ameteur LJ-editing skills. It's so simple to fix the background in HTML, darnit. I could probably even pull it off in CSS. Heck, if there was a way to do it in C I might be able to figure it out (that reminds me, I need to buy that book soon). The only book I have to buy this quarter is for compsci, yay! Well, I have to buy books for Sosc, but they don't count as much, because they're less expensive.

So... err to talk about something else (I've written so many entries today). Letsee. I know, I'll bore you with what I've watched since my last entry. Err.. okay, they were both raw, which means I basically have no idea about the details of what was going on. I should know better than that by now but, ah... I'm like that. So... err, Xenosaga isn't bad per se, but I'm not terribly fond of the art style and I don't know, I'm ashamed to admit that I'm a little lost without the English dub, but I like to think that I remember the beginning of the game fairly well (having started it three or four times)... and it seems to me they've left out a lot of rather important stuff. A lot of rather important stuff. Stuff that would be equivalent to all the foreshadowing about Sloth in FMA and whatnot. So I'm sort of "... huh. Wonder where they're going with this." There's also an inexplicable Mech that KOSMOS has. And lots of random Gundam-like battling and shouting. Oh, and a very random Kirschwasser-type that has some kind of emotional crisis that prompts Shion to give her the charm from her cell phone.

And then I watched Gankutsuou, which despite its eye-killing textures is much more visually appealing (mostly because it's less bland). I really think that it's getting prettier and prettier. And I hate myself for beginning to like the Count, because he's a jerk. I don't like the evil manipulative angsty characters, darnit! But episode 9ish actually made me squee over him. I blame the art. It's the art's fault and I am totally sticking to that (Albert is still adorable... and Eugéne makes me want to play piano, and Franz is just cool. And I'm sad now because I'm afraid of what's going to happen to Albert now. Sigh). I still need to get caught up with Bleach. I haven't watched any of it subbed since 9 or so, I think. And now subbed is all I have because people abandon the raw torrents after about a week (which screws me over for Genshiken. Which is another show that had a great episode 9).
