Mandatory First Week Report!

[izkariote]

Now that it's been exactly seven days since I posted this and I've managed to tear myself away from Persona 4, it's time for some srs life updates.

Monday: Went by in an odd daze. =_= Honestly, beyond the usual talk at the smoket in ADMU, I really don't remember what happened.


Tuesday: Did the usual monthly check-up thing with my endocrinologist~ she upped my dosage, but beyond that, all looks well. Put in some P4 time as soon as I got home, and then dragged myself off to Spec Fic class. I was about 80% sure that I'd regret it, and it turns out that I was right... Spec Fic is only fun with Dr. Cruz is teaching it. With the exception of my cousin's report and the report of one of the other lit majors, all of the reports we've had in class have been poorly done and boring as hell.

I suppose I owe them one though. Managed to scribble down a lot of notes for ROI.

I'm reporting this week. I plan to show them exactly how it ought to be done.


Wednesday: Was brain dead and totally lazy, but I forced myself to go to class anyway. Going online to bug random people during my long break really, really helped though! Also - I can apparently still swing three classes on less than 30% of a brain. |D


Thursday: Woke up hellafuckingearly to go to the dermatologist, in which my face ended up getting zapped by a laser, swabbed with weird chemical stuff and pricked by needles and other sharp implements several times over. Worked on my report for Spec Fic as soon as I got home (9-SLIDE KICKASS REPORT, GET), played Persona 4 again and felt like chucking the controller at the screen because the dungeon was Pissing Me Off, edited ROI in order to post it (links below!) and ended up fixing my layouts instead.

...Speaking of which.

S-so proud of them! And I took a cue from aflyingteapot and made sure the layouts had decent font sizes! ♥


Friday: Woke up feeling seriously ill, so I ended up canceling my sessions with my kids in order to recover. Was feeling slightly better sometime before lunch, though, so I hooked up with anothermiyaw. ...And I don't remember what I did when I got home. orz ANYWAY, after that I crawled through two hours of traffic with my parents to go and meet with khursten, magnetic_rose, sortinghatlover and a lot of wonderful Dolly people. KHURSTEN, I LONG FOR THEIR LJs. DDD:


Saturday: Woke up late and a little better than I did the other day, dragged myself to class and discovered first hand that I hate Derrida + my brain is most definitely still in Vacation Mode, swung by the office to pick yukitsu up and drag her home for the big family dinner party, in which we celebrated three things:

1.) My little brother Peter making it into Ateneo de Manila University, which was his college of choice. His girlfriend Millie made it too, and to Management Engineering, of all things. O_O
2.) The birthdays of my two sisters-in-law. *smishes them*
3.) My Aunt Becky and her husband Reuben's safe arrival from the USA!

I also got to see Tala and Ava, since JP and Jonat were allowed to bring their girlfriends over. Millie was there too - she's great company.

Went upstairs after that to attempt to finish P4 for the second time, only to discover that FUCK NO, THE GAME'S NOT DONE WITH ME YET.


Today: Been playing Persona 4, but I'm back around to bitchslap the creepy people buzzing around anothermiyaw read up on this panfandom RP that I've decided to join me (just poke me if you want the story behind that; it's kinda embarrassing), attempt to go back to Serious Business, edit more of ROI for posting, maybe save icons, maybe change the icons on my LJs, maybe archive more stuff on my FF.net account and--

I really, really wish I was still on vacation. u_u

Also: BELATED HAPPY BIRTHDAY, kasugai_gummie! I LEFT A SEMI-IMPORTANT COMMENT ON YOUR LATEST POST. *flailing*

IT WAS A VERY LONG BUT SHORT WEEK.


... What.



I MEAN A LONG BUT VERY FAST WEEK! ♥ Thanks for inviting me, bb. ; 3; It was fun!

[izkariote.livejournal.com]

What. XD

It was good to have you along at the party. ♥

[keio.livejournal.com]

» Love the layout, the lovely muted colours ❤ !

» Hahaha, let's see anyone else pull that stunt off and not either a) embarrass themselves in front of classmates and colleagues or b) totally miss out on the class entirely, ending the day with what can be described as a case of mild short-term amnesia. XD XD Hope you got a good rest this weekend!

[izkariote.livejournal.com]

Thank you! It took me a long time to fix this one, and I got help from a friend of mine whose really good with CSS. :3

I rested pretty well, I think~ all geared up for this coming week, with luck!

[litolhumster.livejournal.com]

The derma sucks. XD

[izkariote.livejournal.com]

Inorite. I'd totally not go if I didn't have to, but my diet and stress is making my zits come out. orz

[anothermiyaw.livejournal.com]

Oh, your epic bitchslaps of win.

And it is true, Yukeh picks up where you leave off. V. scary, you two.

[izkariote.livejournal.com]

We even slap differently. I personally think that Yukeh is better at it than I am though. XD;

[rainy-takako.livejournal.com]

They're both lovely layouts, zomg. *v* I ADORE the header at stitched! I must know where you found it.

[izkariote.livejournal.com]

I think I picked it up from yarinige, if I'm remembering my comms correctly. I LOVE NIL. |3

[rainy-takako.livejournal.com]

Ooh, I know that comm. I just went and looked for it but I didn't see it. Hnngh oh well. |D; I should draw something for my next layout anyway.

[kasugai-gummie.livejournal.com]

I see a Nil! And a really pretty header on your personal journal too. Your layouts are really pretty, but kind on the eyes this time. ♥

[izkariote.livejournal.com]

Thanks! I'm... trying to make sure that my layouts are more readable and less eye-bleedish now. The new comms I'm on are helping. X3

[la-esperance.livejournal.com]

first up...pretty lay-out! it.is.soo.pretty!

Second:

"With the exception of my cousin's report and the report of one of the other lit majors, all of the reports we've had in class have been poorly done and boring as hell."

ahahahaha. See?! That's why I hate having reports in class! The only reports I love are those made by people who know how to make them (you and me, pam, and very few other people).

hahaha. egotistic is me

Btw, I think I am classmates with one of your cousin's girlfriend in Japanese History now. I can't remember her name and I am too shy to ask. hihihihi. ^_^

[izkariote.livejournal.com]

Sucky reports have the tendency to take up soooo much time too. The other grad students are getting pissed off. I'm kinda not looking forward to whoever's going to report about Battlestar Galactica tomorrow - it might just leave a sour taste in my mouth. XD;

Ah, that must be Tala Wong~

[kye-kestrel.livejournal.com]

It was a busy week for you~ I'm glad that it sounded productive despite the braindeath. <3

[izkariote.livejournal.com]

sakldg;hasdg I actually hope that I'll have slower weeks in the future, but I suppose that this one was a good slap to the arse. Whatta way to wake up from vacation mode. =_=

[kye-kestrel.livejournal.com]

First week is always the hardest? It'll settle soon. Or you'll adjust, whichever comes first. XD

[izkariote.livejournal.com]

--That is true. I'm starting to get back into the groove now. I think. But maybe I shouldn't say anything, I MIGHT JINX IT.

[khursten.livejournal.com]

Well, their LJ usernames. There's yue_dermond (Yue), 24fps (Cla), kaoko_cow (Kaoko).

Ugh, a long traffic is long. @_@ I won't even drive through that traffic. T_T

[izkariote.livejournal.com]

I should add Kaoko. Will ask her on Plurk next time. o_o

slkhg;ashdghsa TRAFFIC IN THIS COUNTRY IS SUCH SO BAD.

[tyreling.livejournal.com]

The layouts are pretty~~! This header is fascinating. I like the dripping effect. The other header is pretty *_*.

It's such a busy week for you. I understand that completely. I hope the derma problem gets resolved soon.

[izkariote.livejournal.com]

Thanks! I... troll way too many graphics comms, so I pick up stuff like this. orz

S-same here. Putting on all these meds is annoying. ~_~

[nakasty.livejournal.com]

Late comment is late *dies* but I think I missed this post the last time I visited your journal. 0.o

Anyway, your layout looks nice, it has a serene atmosphere to it, if that makes any sense orz.

Schoolwork has kept me busy to even touch my PS2 lately. I still have p4, FF12, & KH: CoM to finish. =__=;;

[izkariote.livejournal.com]

Eee, thanks! ♥

GOOD LUCK WITH SCHOOL. MAY YOU FINISH WORK FAST IN ORDER TO PLAY MORE AND HARDER.

That sounded mildly kinky.
