Tame impalas and wicked ducks.

Heeeeeeey. Sorry for the remarkably long delay, I've been remarkably busy. Just to start things off, if you were at any point worried about how things were going for me re: getting into university and stuff, your worry is no longer necessary! I'll give you brand new worries! For now, I'm about 2, 3 weeks into being a university student (again) and ( Read more... )

to be perfectly frank most of the time i'm still shocked i got to this point, and shocked even more that nothing has exploded in my face!!! lmao thanks bb

aside from the jokes, it's not too bad. my notes tend to be a big mess because i have to scribble down words i don't understand to check later, but for now, head is still above water >w<

yeeeeeeeeeep. started the manga last year and it just speaks to some deep, helpless part of my soul.

nothing too different means nothing got worse, so i'm glad!

aaaaah me too babe me too /)A(\

It was hell on earth, and they are continuing that way by making it impossible to pay the bill any other way accept via bank transfers, which means I need to haul ass to the next town over where there's an actual branch of my bank orz

I'm not convinced the water people I've called at least six times know that I'm at this new place already, honest to god.

/)A( sorry to hear about the pain, but thank god for co-operating ovaries!

lmao if i channeled haru i'd given university life the one fingered salute and run off into the ocean already bb. A terrifying role model if ever there was one.

*glompsquishes!* I'm so glad you're doing well, and yay for getting into university and being a college student, and yes, enjoy everything for all it's worth! (because completely killing yourself really does only get you dead :p) I hope things keep going well and more good things keep coming your way because you totally deserve all of it, bb <33 I know what you mean about being shocked that nothing's exploded yet (I keep shifting between utter amazement at my new job being so much better and bald terror that it's all a fluke of some sort), but I'm using all of my mental mind powers to root for you having upgraded to doing great by next year, too! <3

(Ahh, I should get back to work and finish up ^^;; Hope there are no more problems with your utilities and stuff. Getting all that stuff set up is a giant mess in the first place; I don't even want to think about how stressful it would have been doing so in a foreign country with the companies in charge of such things being their usual unhelpful selves >:E)

I SPEND SO MUCH OF TIME WILDLY BEWILDERED but i have to say it's not bewilderment in an unpleasant way, so i really don't want to complain too much. more so than tough lectures i'm just concerned i won't be able to keep up with the phys ed classes orz also! CONGRATULATIONS ON MOVING TO A NEW JOB! what are you doing where is it does it pay better how're your co-workers! hope for the best, i'm hoping it's me and everyone i know that can say things have gone from good to great from '14 to '15 yeahhhhhh.

(it's the end of the month and i still haven't gotten my utilities bill yet. if they suddenly cut off my gas and water i will weep like a baby >A< and yeah, doing this in japanese is about 400 times harder than if i could do it in English. it's hard to tell if it's me or the company at fault a lot of the time hnggggh)

D'aww! I know what you mean. I spent a while freaking out, then feeling bad about freaking out, then freaking out about not freaking out, but none of it in a bad way. My tiny brain cells must just not be equipped to deal with stuff ^^;; And hee! My undergrad university was very big on the whole phys ed thing, too (probably partially due to holdover from the Japanese occupation during WWII), so at least one phys ed course was required for every semester unless you were graduating. Luckily after the first two required "general phys ed" classes (pretty much everything I ever hated about PE; track and field, trying to hit or catch tiny flying projectiles with oddly shaped blunt instruments, "let's test how well you fit our standards of physically fit!" tests), we got to pick more specific/specialized courses for the rest of them. So I did a lot of dance/yoga/martial arts intro type classes, and took archery one semester. Maybe there'll be something like that where you are ( ... )

It's amazing the lengths the human mind would go to to freak itself out. And the fear of Phys. Ed. isn't so much that I dislike violent physical activity. I like being outdoors and moving my body and sweating vigorously and bonding with people via shared muscle strain. Just the whole knee-in-recovery thing, and being fat and unfit as a result of the knee-recovery thing, I'm perpetually in fear that I'm going to shame myself in class and no one will love the floppy flappy me. In short, more of my brain being an ass to miiii. And to be honest the Phys. Ed. classes are hella weird and hella funny. Some weeks we're running laps, then some weeks we're doing trust exercises where you hold hands and lead your blindfolded partner around campus. It's weird but I'd be lying if I said it didn't have it's appeal. Once I'm in my second year I can start picking what sports I want to do, and my goal is to be strong enough and to have recovered enough that in my 3rd year I can take up volleyball or something equally cool as hell ( ... )
