I get a lot of use out of this icon. Maybe it should be my default or something. Heh.

Work this morning... bleh. Not fun at all. But once it's over, I have the rest of the day off. Tomorrow is my dad's birthday, and we are celebrating today. It'll be fun.

Yesterday was fun. Sarah did come to the anime club meeting, and intends to come for other meetings, too. Yay! We watched episode seven of FMA, which everyone said was depressing. And so it is. I'm still pretty fond of that episode, though.

Er. For those wondering, I'm going to post part one of my new Hikaru no Go story tomorrow. Probably on ff.net and mm.org and I'm still debating about the forum, since I've been out of things for so long. But we'll see.

A week until NaNo... I need to get working on Game Over if I want to finish part four before then.
silverthunder: (Alphonse - I'll pass)
Well, yesterday was... yesterday. I didn't do a whole heck of a lot.

The last scene of Game Over is started, and I finally have a clear idea of what I'm going to do with it. Not crystal, but reasonably clear. Next chapter will probably be a bit easier, but of course I won't have much time to do anything with it, since NaNo will probably start up and then I'll be working on something else.

But, after a month, I'll probably be dying to get back to any story that isn't the one I'll be slaving over then.

We'll see, I guess.

Today is an anime club meeting, which Sarah was going to come to. I don't know if she will, since it is fairly early in the day for her. But she said she would, so... You never know.

It'd be fun.

I just realized that I haven't made a completely pointless non-real-life-related post in this journal in quite a while.

I think I should fix that.

Fandom, original, and other writings )
silverthunder: (Default)
Almost slept in this morning. By which I mean I got up later than I usually do, but not late enough so that I wouldn't have time to write this entry. Heh.

It's Friday, though - only two classes. That's not too much to get through.

My computer assignment is done. I just need to set up my report now, since I have all the information, and then send it in. We were not given a new assignment yesterday, so it's all good. I have a little breathing room - which I should use to work on my Article Summary for Philosophy.

But... yeah. Might happen, but it's unlikely.

I had to hang out at the library for a little while before belly dancing yesterday, and I found some great books on Irish myths - the kind I'll be using in my NaNoWriMo piece. So I took the time to do a little bit of research. My story might sound a little bit like I know what I'm talking about now.

Not much, but a little bit. And that's something.
silverthunder: (Edward and Alphone - Sleepy)
Well, my essay is turned in. My program has run. I need to do a graph and a traffic report, and then I can turn it in. It's due tomorrow by midnight, so I have some time.

I'm very relieved now that I don't have anything due in my English class until November 25th. Other than little pieces of writing that take almost no time at all. It just gives me some breathing room.

Which is hard to come by in school anyway.

Jer and I finished watching Full Metal Alchemist last week - that makes two series I've actually watched from beginning to end with him. FMA and Hikaru no Go. So tonight we started Orphen Revenge. By his request, since I showed him a couple of episodes a long time ago. It's fun. I haven't watched that series in a while.

Good to take an older series out and watch it again every now and then.

One more scene left in Game Over part four, and then it can be read through a million times and edited. And then posted. I just have to decide exactly how this scene will go.

I'll figure something out.
silverthunder: (Edward and Alphone - Sleepy)
I'm a little worried about my English paper. I spent a lot of time working on it, and sent a draft to my teacher. But I never got a reply, so I edited it myself. Now I'm thinking maybe I should go in to see her.

It couldn't hurt, but I won't have a lot of time to fix the thing...

Meh. This is why I shouldn't procrastinate.

In better news, my program runs perfectly now. I just have to ask how long I'm supposed to run it for, whether or not I was using it properly for the test he wants done, and where to get all that information I'm supposed to include in my report.

Bleh. But at least this one isn't due until Friday.

In much better news, while I was waiting for a reply, I managed to finish off the Hikaru no Go ghost story. It's being beta-ed now. (thank you again, [livejournal.com profile] sailormac) So, yeah, that's an accomplishment.

I'm just really glad I don't work tonight.
silverthunder: (Edward and Alphone - Sleepy)
Yesterday was busy as hell, and now I'm ready for a full morning of essay writing. Actually, I've already started. I'm through taking notes on Mholo's family's culture and the outside culture, and now I'm going to work on the *wild* culture.

Doesn't that sound exciting?

My teacher told me to send her a draft today, since I wasn't sure if I was doing things right. So when I've finished taking notes, I'm going to write the draft and send it in. Hopefully that'll be finished in time for me to go talk to my Networking prof before Sarah calls about lunch, because I still need to ask about that segmentation error and whether or not we're expected to record all 40 protocols listed in that header file.

And then when I'm back from lunch, hopefully I'll have a reply from my teacher and I can polish up my essay for tomorrow. Then I'll work on the program again and hopefully get it running.

Bah. Today's going to be busy, too. Meck.

Oh well...
silverthunder: (Alphonse - I'll pass)
Ugh. Back to school. And then back to work. I hate long days...

Especially since I have an essay due on Wednesday. I'll probably spend all day Tuesday working on it, but still. I need to find time to visit my prof in computing, since I had that little segmentation error in my program and don't know what's causing it.

Bleh.

That means I should've been working on my essay over the weekend. But of course, I didn't do that. That would've been *smart*.

It's also freezing because our new furnace isn't working. Since the people who installed it don't have anywhere to call over the weekend for help, we had to wait until this morning. It's very cold in this house.

Hopefully that can be fixed soon.

I'm also tired... It's going to be a long, *long* day...
silverthunder: (Edward and Alphone - Sleepy)
So I watched episode two of Digimon Tamers yesterday... Actually, I noticed that most of what they changed is Ruki's attitude - made her a bit snarkier. I like her better in the original.

Ah well. Either way, she is cool. Can't change that.

Jenrya also got introduced in this episode. He said a couple of words, and... wow. Envy. Heh.

Actually, I wouldn't really make connections that often. The seiyuu does a good job of giving characters a distinct sound. And Envy and Jenrya are no where alike in personality, so yeah. No problem.

It's funny, though - that's two seiyuu in Fullmetal Alchemist who came from Digimon. And playing two major characters, too. In both shows.

Kinda cool.

Speaking of cool, it's freezing here. The weather decided to get cold all of a sudden, and our furnace has stopped working. Bah. It's a brand new furnace! What the hell?

I guess we'll find out when we can call in, on Monday.
silverthunder: (Roy)
Well, I'm going to be reasonably busy again today... I've got a performance this morning, and then work. I also couldn't get my program working yesterday - I have more questions to ask my teacher now. Bah.

Oh well. Maybe I'll work on the essay. At least outline it or something. It would be a good idea.

Meh. I think we all know how much of *that* is going to happen.

It looks like I *will* be going into NaNoWriMo, since I've got my story all plotted out now. Hopefully I'll still actually be *interested* once November gets here, since I have to wait until then to get writing.

I guess we'll see.

Oh, for Digimon fans, Wolf Pack Productions has the second episode of Tamers out now. Finally! I think the tracker is down right now, though, so you'll probably have to wait to get it.
silverthunder: (Default)
Just as I thought, I got a new assignment in Networking yesterday. I'm just about caught up on the journal, and I started the program right away, so I just need to ask the prof a couple of things and then hopefully I can get it running fairly quickly.

I still really should work on that essay. But I know I'll end up doing it the day before it's due.

Ah well.

Today is an anime club meeting. It'll be right after my afternoon class. I'll have to come home and hope my father isn't busy at work so I can get a ride down.

Also, on Saturday, I'm apparently going to dance at the park with some of the girls from my belly dance class. Heh. Should be fun. Hopefully it's not too cold.
silverthunder: (Edward and Alphone - Sleepy)
I should do some English work today... I'm falling behind with my journal a little and I have a major essay due next Wednesday that I should at least make a structure for and start gathering quotes on to build my analysis around.

But I'm *tired*! I wanna sleep!

Bah. I guess that's no excuse. I'm a lazy, lazy person. I should go do my schoolwork.

It doesn't help that our teacher has now said that we're not handing the journals in until the end of the term. I could put everything off and do it all at the last minute.

I *shouldn't*, but I could.

Ah well, anyway, I think my midterm went well yesterday. There's only one question I'm not really sure about. And work was hell last night... Ugh. Truckloads to do and not enough time to do it all in. Plus, the washing machine broke just as I was starting to use it. It wouldn't drain. I had to leave the laundry in there until Ross came in and fixed it, because if I opened the door, water would've poured out.

Yeah. Fun night. I hate work.

Ah well.
silverthunder: (Edward - Only human)
My midterm exam is this morning. I studied for quite a while, and I'm pretty sure I know my stuff, but I'm still worried about it. Yerk... I'm sure there'll be at least one question where I just have no idea what to do.

It always seems to happen that way.

Other than that, I didn't do a heck of a lot yesterday. Sat around, did some writing. Game Over part four is sixteen pages so far. I also plotted out a background for a story I might use for NaNoWriMo.

If I decide to try that. I still might back out.

We'll see, I guess.

I also work tonight, after my midterm and my other classes. It's going to be a hell of a day. But then tomorrow I don't have class until two.

That's something, I guess.
silverthunder: (Edward - Hee)
I don't know why - I just had to make a post on this one. Maybe because I don't want to study just yet.

Creepiness, Hikari, and Protective Males )
silverthunder: (Edward - Repeat?)
So, Digimon 02 episode 13 is up now at Wolf Pack Productions, for those interested. I think this is the episode with that guy who drags Hikari off to the alternate universe, and then never appears again in any other episode.

Did anyone else think that was strange? I did...

I'm very eager to see how much of the Takeru/Hikari shipping was added by the dubbers. I'm guessing a heck of a lot.

My goal yesterday was to finish my program, which I finished fairly early on. I basically did nothing for the rest of the day, which was fun. Today I have to study for my midterm - I've been sorta reviewing the notes but not really - I should put in about two or three hours tonight to get *really* ready.

But I know my stuff, so I know that I'll be okay.

I got a random sort of idea for another story, and might join the NaNoWriMo thing with it. I haven't decided yet, though... I'm pretty sure I won't make it through the month anyway.

But it might be fun to try.
silverthunder: (Edward and Alphone - Sleepy)
So last night I had dinner at Jeremy's house... His family is very nice. I'm glad I went now, even though I was kinda nervous about it at first. We also had time to watch 'A New Hope' from the Star Wars DVD set. Looks very nice.

I haven't seen the original Star Wars in so long... Hopefully we'll get to watch the other two as well. I still have my VHS set, but it doesn't look as nice as the DVD set.

That's not really surprising, I guess.

Other than that, I worked in the morning yesterday. Fun times. But I managed to get my Friday shift switched to Saturday, so I can go to the Anime Club meeting on Friday. Excellent.

I intend to try and finish my program today and get it sent to my prof if I can make it work right away. Here's hoping.

I'm toying with a couple of different ideas for what happens next in Game Over, but I'll have to start on one soon enough. I'll probably decide not to upset my timetable and go with my original plan. It seems the best course.

Well, anyway, for those who are reading, thanks for your patience. I know it's taking forever. I'm doing my best and trying not to mess up with it.
silverthunder: (Edward and Alphone - Sleepy)
I hate working in the morning... It's not as bad when it's school, because class only lasts for an hour or two. But when it's work, I know I'm there for six hours. And work just sucks, so six hours is torture.

Bleh. Oh well.

We had the anime club meeting yesterday... watched Oh My Goddess, Fullmetal Alchemist, Sailor Stars, and Inu Yasha. And did some chatting, which was fun. Good times.

The next meeting is on Friday now... which means I have to trade another shift at work. It figures - one of the few weekends I have off, and the meeting's going to be on the day *before* the weekend.

Ah well.

I also hung out with Sarah last night. We watched a couple more episodes of FMA, and had dinner. Apparently she can't work at the moment because there was a problem with her log-in code. So she's a little stressed. Hopefully she gets back to work soon.

Off to work now. Yay.
silverthunder: (Koushiro)
Forgot to mention in my last entry, for those interested, Digimon Adventure episode six is available now for download from WolfPackProductions. So, go and get it while it's seeded!
silverthunder: (Edward - The hell?)
I'm a little ticked off at my sister this morning... I woke up and went downstairs, and she had opened my expensive Japanse candy, and eaten two of them without bothering to ask me.

That's very annoying! Think about it. What the hell? I probably would've given her one if she asked. I sure as hell don't want to give her anything of mine NOW.

Bah. I hate my sisters. They're such creeps.

I turned in my paper yesterday, and I've just about finished my networking assignment. I suppose I should work on that essay for English that's due in a week and a half.

But I really don't want to.

Other than school, nothing much has been going on. I've been good and worked on my assignments.

Anime Club meeting today...
silverthunder: (Alphonse - I'll pass)
Almost forgot to update this... yeesh. My mind is going. Too much schoolwork.

I finished my paper yesterday. Then I got my mother to read it. She pointed out some trouble spots, and I edited it. Now it's done. I just have to print it out and take it to my noon class.

I also got another assignment for Networking, which looked a touch complicated, so I started it immediately. Good thing, because I have to ask my prof something now. He's leaving on Saturday morning and not coming back until Wednesday. Which is when we have our midterm.

I want my program working a long, long time before then.

Also, I'll blame Jer for encouraging me if I actually cave and *write* that FMA AU crackplot. Seriously.

In actual productive writing news, still inching along with Game Over. It's coming bit by bit whenever I happen to have time for it, but it *is* still being written, so never fear.
