Quick update on the interview I mentioned last post: talk with the Chair went well. She says I've got an excellent record, and they're hoping to sign me on for another year with the department. The thing is, a lot of the old faculty members are returning, so there's a big chance that I won't be teaching as many classes as I was last year.

This is actually perfectly cool with me, because I'll just increase my load for my MA classes. I'll be earning less money, but studying IS a whole lot easier than teaching, much less studying AND teaching at the same time.

We talked a bit more about other things too, like how it's a good thing I'm sticking with the dept and srsly doing the scholar thing. She DID give me a fair warning about maximizing my semester (apparently she heard that I finished my sem rather early last sem, and with our New Nazi Administration that's frowned upon), but beyond that, all was well.

Changed the layout over at

stitchedophelia due to that semi-creepy stalker person I mentioned before (although not in detail; you're going to have to ask me for that yourselves~), and I've finally got fics to pimp out. \o/

Fic Dump!

Gintama
+ But if I try to find you there are only shadows (Katsura & Takasugi, for rainy_takako)
+ Going to bed early doesn't help much (Gintoki, for rainy_takako)

Gundam Seed
+ Your place in my heart is the whole of my heart (Ramias & Fraga, for psychoshoujo)

Gundam Wing
+ I can't say which of me is in you and which of you is in me (Une watching Treize, for psychoshoujo)

House M.D.
+ A ribbon around her throat (Thirteen, for psychoshoujo)

Persona 3 & 4
+ Shitting bricks (Kitchen Shenanigans; for psychoshoujo)
+ Where the wild things are (Yosuke x Souji; for psychoshoujo)
+ Who slid out of my heart? (Kansji & Naoto; for psychoshoujo)
+ The throb that sways my heart, my soul (Daisuke & Kou, for psychoshoujo)

Soul Eater
+ Nevertheless, to be curious is dangerous enough (The Kids, for rainy_takako)

Basch is extremely difficult to play, if only because of the speech pattern. ;; I do hope that I'll get used to it soon, the way I did with Raidou.

Speaking of RP-related things: World of Darkness folks, I have a proposal to make: why don't we move our game online? It'll be easier for us to do sessions, I think. Lemme know how you feel about that.

Semi-frustrated that I wasn't able to write the whole weekend, but my wrist was being weird again. I guess it couldn't be avoided. orz

Will catch up once I'm sure that it's fine!

Not-so-randomly: one thing I really like about writing by request is that I feel it helps me grow. Makes me write stuff that I normally WOULDN'T write, and all.

Overall, it's never a hassle. I'm even happier when the ones who requested are happy with what I've written for them.

I've FINALLY caught up with One Piece. I can't say that I'm as impressed with it as I might have thought I'd be, but I suppose it was worth the read. I'm also making good time with Gintama, and that is always cool. |D

Now to reread Full Metal Alchemist and catch up on Kekkaishi.

Beyond the animu, I've also finally updated my icons on both relevant accounts and changed my Plurk layout to something so terribly not-worksafe, it's glorious. ♥

Little things like this make my world go 'round at the moment~

Currently in the office now, to catch up on downloads and do all of the other things that only a decent connection will allow me to do. I feel I've caught up with RP duties a little TOO quickly - I'm still waiting on a pending application, so I'm a little reluctant to start working on the apps of the other characters I've got planned. I don't have any hanging logs either (or more like, I've tagged them so I'm just waiting on the other party), so... yeah. o_o

As for things on the home front, I spent a good part of yesterday moving things out of my room. Dad has Big Plans for renovation, so I'll be living like a hobo until the construction and repainting finishes~

Oh. Now that Holy Week is over, I'm going to call PLDT and get that damned upgrade. More than a month of lol!internetz is time enough.

There was free food from California Pizza Kitchen in the office today. I also met three of the other staff members, and read an article about a 17-year-old spoiled brat who buys enough clothes and accessories to pay for my tuition twice over every single week and then actually has the nerve to think "I'M NOT A DITZ I'M JUST MISUNDERSTOOD! D:"

For more details, check the Lifestyle section of the STAR tomorrow.

And this is the real reason for this post. Two for the 69 Challenge and the rest for iWHORE!

Apologies, as always, to those who end up getting this twice. @_@

Lacus Clyne's 'Freedom Force' in Gundam Seed Destiny, episode 43 (Violet Dom units, bebeh.)

\spoiler

Yuna got crushed by a big blue thing, and to quote Ilian's maker on this it's too bad it wasn't a huge dildo.

/end spoiler

I did make it through last week, for those of you who cared enough to know. And your care is appreciated. Just, don't ask about the tests. Let's just say I'm happy to make it through with all limbs in place, including my head on neck. It's just a good thing Mr. Gloom and Doom didn't rub off on me the whole time. I can't say the same for a few other people in the group though.

Yesterday was a refreshing experience, having Bitchpartner-in-crime and Team Uke over for a few hours (She thought of the name, not me). The bro and I wanted to follow them out to the mall afterward, but the driver was going to deliver my parents to social functions and there was no way for us to fit ourselves in. Stayed home and watched the other brothers play Lord of the Rings: Third Age instead. It's a very interesting RPG system, and the graphics aren't bad either. Quite impressive.

Something about chanting makes any experience mystical. Couple it with some synthesizer work and rave beats and it's even better at times. He would agree with me on this, I'm sure.

Note to self: Save up for the Cassandra Cain compilations from DC, the Batman arcs with LoA on the side, No Man's Land, Sandman, Birds of Prey, Lucifer and maybe a copy of JLA: Identity Crisis. To all parties who owe me money: Might I impart upon your debt soon? ;_;

Expect something up on Stitched-O and Reuk soon. There's a piece that's been screaming to go online for quite some time now.

Has anyone read the works of Nando the RPS King on FF.net? He/she has been reviewing my Suikoden fiction and adding it to his/her faves. All praises and stuff, for things I wrote in high school. High school. I don't know whether to be happy or curl up and die from embarassment.

EDIT / about 15 minutes later: I posted something to Stitched-O and Reuk after all.

Current Mood: so yeah. those must be stars.

Stolen from Khursten. :3

Pick five fandoms. List for each of them:
1. The first character you first fell in love with
2. The character you never expected to love as much as you do now
3. The character everyone else loves that you don't
4. The character you love that everyone else hates
5. The character you used to love but don't any longer

Final Fantasy VII
1. Vincent [...and why not? >3]
2. Cloud [gotta love psychotic/delusional/schizo blonds with big swords]
3. Hojo [not quite there. He's fun, but... no.]
4. Aeris [a lot of my friends hate her guts]
5. Rufus [cute snark, but I think we've settled down now.]

X
1. Seishirou [*__*]
2. Sorata [he grows on you.]
3. Kamui [ditch that angst, boy.]
4. Saiki [just because he died early enough to keep from annoying me too much.]
5. Fuuma [the wish granter act gets old.]

Gundam Seed
1. Athrun [one of the best uke-faced seme I've met o_o]
2. Dearka and Yzak [they come in pairs. >3]
3. Kira [...whip this one, please. >_>]
4. Natarle [I dunno. Something about cold military bitches hits a good note in me.]
5. Kleuze [you were cool until the Madonna and masks acts started kicking in.]

Harry Potter
1. Sirius Black and Remus Lupin [it's a sin to mention one without the other.]
2. Mad-Eye Moody [...*fufu*]
3. Harry Potter [I have an aversion to most main characters.]
4. Ginny [Call it fanfiction bias, but she's getting better. o_o]
5. Fred and George [Cute. That's it.]

Devil May Cry 1/2/3
1. Vergil & Dante [Older brother seme and younger brother uke love.]
2. Lady [Scruffy-haired chicks in plaid skirts with a lot of guns should fall out of the sky more often.]
3. Jayden [Can anybody say, "Jennifer Lopez?"]
4. Arkham [It's really funny how he turns into a big, slimy blog and all that. @_@]
5. Trish [I miss her. Sometimes.]

The forum has ruined what little skill I had left in HTML. >_

Now, after scrambling about like a headless chicken in the morning (with much thanks to Char for allowing herself to be dragged around), I can FINALLY connect to the net here at ADMU.

That's it.

*bows*

EDIT: After Western Lit II class
I just tried to BT Gundam Seed Destiny episode 20 off AoNE's servers, but it says the network's unreachable. Looks like those evil admin people really fixed our internet up against their students leeching the good stuff. ;__;

Decided to stay here until 6 PM on a whim since I'm already on a roll with the writing... I'll finish Chapter 12 at this rate, and hopefully some other extras while I'm waiting. Khursten is due to come around right about now, but I think she's still at this meeting she has at the History Dept. Of course, there's always some comfort in solitude.

This is, indeed, the best time to be in the Caf. Everyone else is too busy studying or working on their own laptops to bother with generating noise, and all those annoying freshmen (excluding, of course, the posse) who draw attention upon themselves by being annoying through the simple act of breathing.

One more week, then finals, then freedom. >3

Been waking up way too early lately, even though I really don't have anything to worry about. The makings of insomnia...? I can only wonder. What really annoys me is the fact that I'll be going to school early for a class that I'm having an increasingly hard time sitting still in. =_= Call me angsty teenanger, but I really hate it when one is forced to sit in a lecture about "social justice" and all that jazz when we're a generation that can't do a thing about what's happening here and now at times.

Anyway. Back to would-be insomnia. If there's one good thing about it, it's the fact that I got to watch Gundam Seed Destiny 8 -- I couldn't afford to wait up for it anymore last night. Would've slept at 2 or worse, knowing how bad BT gets at times.

( spoiler-ridden ramblings. )

...And there you have it.

No school again tomorrow, but it IS a holiday of obligation. One hour roasting nicely in the church can't be that bad though... who knows? Maybe I'll come out with a nice tan, or something.

Current Mood: awake. not liking it much.

Still feeling shitty. Setting Monday aside, this week has been pretty shitty so far.

Ranted and railed it all out in Rej's presence at the Caf... if the administration could get P20 for every time I've cried there, they'd be rich.

Gundam Seed Destiny 7 and hefty servings of tocino and rice in my bro's company have healing powers though. Maybe I'll be all right by tomorrow.

It's been a sad season for all of us lately. CCHQ is closing down. While discounts are always good, the fact that the Cheng Chua siblings even HAVE to put things so low just bites.
