So I've been realizing that I've been really behind on LJ and checking my f-list very sporadically. Plus I rarely post now, but tbh there isn't much worth posting. I'm still around, though I just haven't kept myself updated very well

I USE TWITTER :D

[scylladakylla]

Lol I know you do, Mai, I know you do. Maybe I should make a Twitter... But I'd have no idea how to use it. ;-;

[hoyah]

It's really easy!

[scylladakylla]

You underestimate the myriad ways I could screw up things that are supposed to be easy.

[wykedpanda]

i too have realized that people have slowly disappeared... O_O

[scylladakylla]

Right? Everyone's slowly fading away... ;-;

[wykedpanda]

it's a bit disheartening....but perhaps once the break kicks in, people will come back to life again ^^

[scylladakylla]

I hope so! :)

hi scylla! I have a twitter (@zoologisch) that I use very frequently, but I still mostly use livejournal for longer ramblings even though I feel like I'm the only one around :\ I've got a tumblr too, but something about tumblr/my lack of friends or followers or whatever there makes me feel like I'm talking to a wall every time I'm posting. even if I'm having fun posting something there's very little indicator that anyone's listening and it's lonely :\

but enough about me. I hope things start to pick up soon in your life, it sounds like you're in a rut and that's never good. I mentioned this on the meme I think but if you have any insights about teaching in korea that you'd be willing to pass on I'd love to listen! I'm slowly realizing I won't get a job or into grad school out of college and I'm pursuing all my options even if I don't feel all that enthusiastic about them now :\ but yeah I hope things get better :(

[scylladakylla]

Maybe I really should start using Twitter...? But I resisted for so long. :| And sobs ikr, it feels so dead around here nowadays. What is your Tumblr account? I WILL FOLLOW YOU. I WILL FOLLOW YOU TO THE END

my tumblr is fridgelogic, but be warned- I either don't use it at all, or I use it to ramble about super old anime and kid's shows. and obviously kpop too, but my tumblr is basically very unexciting.

are hagwons sketchy? I heard there was some system of teaching english in korea that was sketchy but I can't remember which one ;;

I haven't been online in a long time only because I've been in germany and busy with work and traveling and attempting to be social with people I don't really like, but whenever I'm working on fic I'm online and I'll probably be more online once I get home in january :3

[scylladakylla]

Lol don't worry, looking at tumblr so far it seems to be a lot of random stuff, some American TV show stuff, some Kpop, and Pokemon. :|

Hagwons can be sketchy; it depends. As long as you're careful with your research and choose a reputable one, not one that was just recently created, you should be fine.

Okay! :3

my tumblr is sender-unknown and my twitter is @summanaro!

Tumblr and Twitter are the cool places to be these days. I elect to go down with the LJ ship. :| So yes - stay, stay! and sorry to not have answered email in something like two months - my inbox is kind of unmanageable.

If you're mostly chillin' lately, have you considered looking into some kind of volunteering or tutoring (or both) to a. kill time and b. (in the case of the latter) make moneys? Although you still don't drive, right? so that could cramp your style.

[eluneth]

although you can always make tutoring students come to your house...

[scylladakylla]

Haha I opened a Tumblr, but I still use LJ just as often, so. :) And don't worry about it! I can only imagine how busy you must be. Oh, by the way, will you be home for winter break at any point? I still need to give you your leggings!

Well my chilling will come to an end pretty soon, since I'm supposed to take classes next semester. Which will probably drive me just as crazy, because I barely remember what it's like to be in school anymore. And I actually got two requests for tutoring, though I'll have to see if they work out considering I'll need to take classes soon.

[eluneth]

I'll be back on Friday, yup yup. We should have another lunch-and-catch-up!

Oh right, you're doin' classes. Are you going to be doing them at Rutgers? Yeah, it'll be irritating to have to sit still and listen to lecturers go on and on (I'm heartily sick of taking classes at this point - though I'm pretty much done for the near future at least), but having the structure and defined goals can be comforting, too.

That's excellent that you have tutoring requests! You can always dictate the schedule and limit it to a few hours a week... depends on how many classes you'll have to be taking, I guess.
