Er, yes, unexpected silence there. Holidays weren't as quiet as I anticipated. Ah, well, at least I had fun. XD (Nagoya's 'Italy Village' is so kitsch it could have made the Caesars cry, and my old lecturer would have beaten me to death for visiting - with some justification - but I loved it.

*eeps* It's aliiive!

You feel the need for more homework? I'd be happy to outsource some of mine. ^_^

It's getting hot over here too, and I'm wishing for my colds back. Ugh. Israel is hell during the summer. First hot day this year (and it's still "spring"), I carelessly left my windows open in the morning. When I got back, all the posters had fallen off my wall - it was so warm, it had made the putty let go. >_<

Good luck on the finding-free-time-to-write front.

I'll try fail anything once! ^_-

Ahh, that's the heat for me - dry heat, all melty and fearsome. <3 Though having said that, it's not the most fun to go out in, is it? And one isn't -really- able to function without air conditioning.

Writing ... isn't happening worth crap, so I'm going to read for a while instead. ;) Speaking of which ... the three-year mark approacheth, sooo ... even a shortie sometime? O;D *le hint*

A plague on all sniffing! I hate that sound too. Blowing your nose is so much more pleasant in my opinion.

Good to hear you had fun on your holiday.

Isn't it weird? In Japan, it's the sound of people blowing their nose that makes people cringe, and the sound of snrrrrrt that doesn't bother them out of the ordinary O_o;;

Something to do with keeping your own germs to yourself, but still. Yuck. *shiver*

Thanks, hon!

Eugh. Although I can understand that blowing your nose in the direction of people is unhygienic, what's wrong with doing it in the direction of not people? Is Japan just prodigiously people-ated?

It is indeed prodigiously people-ated. And the peopleations would rather be aware that you're keeping your own secretions to yourself than hear you venting it into the common air, regardless of that nooise aagh ... X(

wow... so blowing your nose is rude but sniffing isn't? oddness. that is quite a cultural difference that i would have trouble getting used to. it snot fair. (heheheh... couldn't resist ^_^)

Hope your cold clears up soon, my little snotling. Nothing is more annoying than having a nose that plugs up everytime you lie down to sleep! *huggles*

*groan* Purgatory! Think of all the years you add to your Purgatory tally every time you crack one of those! XD

Agh, yes, sleep is tough at the moment. I've been going through tissues like no-one's business. On the bright side, I've cultivated a scratchy-gravelly samurai voice! YAY!

*hugs*
