Happy Valentines day to all of my fellow Euphemers. While I do not have a Valentine, being completely incapable of actually, you know, telling someone I like them (and now she is with some guy I've never met,) I still rather enjoy ye olde V-Day, possibly because the cafeteria gives us cookies with icing and sprinkles. Delicious ( Read more... )

I'm sorry if I've been a bit frazzled or out of it lately. You see, my parents finally deigned to tell me why it is I was finally allowed to go to a real school and why it had to be a school so far away. This is what they were keeping from me: All eight doctors said my lungs were fine, nothing wrong with them whatsoever. The last doctor thought ( Read more... )

I'm feeling much better, which might have something to do with the ending of that snow storm of doom. I was feeling well enough to go into town to get some cough medicine at least. The fact that this is an accomplishment is rather depressing, especially since cough medicine has never been the slightest bit helpful to me. I did manage, despite my ( Read more... )

So much for back to the daily grind, as I said in my last entry. This cold is no good for me. I should have gone to school someplace warm, like California or Hawaii. I've always wanted to live in Hawaii. But, if I did that I would not have met all of you, so don't think I'm trying to leave. I just hate being trapped in bed and helpless, which ( Read more... )

When I was feeling my absolute worst yesterday, Sammie came over and made everything seem so much brighter. She snuck in through the fire escape, for one thing, which made me feel wonderfully risque, but it was more than that. It was just nice to know that there was someone at Eupheme who cared enough to take care of me when I was sick and, ( Read more... )

Its snowing outside. I can see the flakes blown against my window in the instant before they melt. I long to be out there, building snow forts and having snowball fights and exploring this world made alien by it's blanket of white. But I can't. I barely had enough strength to go find my laptop and a couple books and drag them back under the ( Read more... )

The thing I miss the most from home is my D&D group. I know it is terribly nerdy of me, but having all my friends come over and sit around my bed drinking hot chocolate and spinning wild adventures was one of my great comforts when I was sick in bed, and while I do not miss being sick, I miss my friends and our games terribly ( Read more... )

First day of classes wasn't too bad. I thought I might be behind, because I've never attended "real" high school before, but I guess my tutors prepared me pretty well. I'm not feeling overwhelmed at all, which is odd since not only am I new to Eupheme, I'm new to the U.S. of A and high school in general. But, I keep having this odd feeling that ( Read more... )

Going through customs was an adventure, by which I mean hell on wheels. It's probably a good thing I sent that sword I bought on ebay last year ahead of me by mail. The flight itself was uneventful. I amused myself by watching the clouds and reading ( Read more... )
