Grades and everything else

[lunatique]

Update on life!

Life has been... strange these past few days, and I'm feeling anxious and restless and a little panicky when I start thinking about certain things. Maybe i should start by making a list.

FAMILY
The Aunt and Cousin visiting from Belgium stayed an extra week due to Volcano. It was nice to have them over, but despite being the pleasant&easy-to-live-with breed of relatives, it's soo glad they're finally gone.

SKOOL STUFFZ

I just had a mild heart attack at my Art Ed (core class) grade. IN A GOOD WAY. *runs around flailing for a bit* \0/ \0/ \0/ \0/
I got more than what I truly deserved for Painting, and just about what I deserved in Ceramics. Which doesn't change the fact that I wish I had done more and better for that class, because it was just a GREAT class and a GREAT teacher and while I'm not dissatisfied with my work, I'm almost disapppointed with ME. I could have just that bit MORE into it. Y'know? :/
Now I'm just waiting for the results of the dreaded online EDUC class to drop. It was a pain and a waste of my time and will probably be a stain on my transcript too. But I don't care. IT'S OVER. I got a great mark in ARTE and that's what matters most! \0/ \0/

Still waiting the verdict from the department about SPECIALIZATION. Dun-dun-dun!!! I hate it when my life plans rest upon the decisions of a third party. :/


FANDOM
I've picked up the Maximum Ride series by James Patterson in a fit of solidarity because my bro seems to finally have taken interest in a book series and is reading it. So the least I can do it read it with him and discuss it with him.
It's not the greatest books ever written and it has its share of plotholes and flaws, but I'm really enjoying reading them. I really wish the author explored some promising aspects more and now I desperately want fanfic!! /0\

SUMMER
What Am I doing this summer? The hundred dollar question.
On one hand, I want to find a job and save up some money this summer. On the other I just want OUT of here, no matter where I go. I signed up for WWOOF and that's all swell, but my problem is the month of May.
I figured I could go to BC for the month, WWOOF somewhere, come back to the east for AN on the last weekend of May, then get a job. But tickets to BC are not cheap, and it seems like such a waste to stay there only one month (barely 3 weeks). I considered cancelling on AN and just staying on the West Coast and WWOOFing my way around until July-ish. But I don't want to cancel the one occasion I plan for every year to go and have some fun with friends.
I just don't know what to do. :/

Sorry guys, I'm really rambly today and sort of panicky, but things will get sorted out. I just gotta get into gear and stop hiding.

Good luck with the verdict! I hope you'll get what you want! And CONGRATS!

Congrats for your score \^o^/
So you've picked up that series. No wonder why a gray bird (with a human body, think of angels from Constantine series) and his boyfriend (black bird, a raven or something) dropped into my head and lived there recently. And their respective species. Ah, good days of world-making. Excuse me while I roll on the floor from the implied gay. It's like freakin' Joel and Felix as birds with less physical contacts, but more courting. Thanks, Oscar Wilde. (See the diagonal line? I should stop doing that kind of link. Humans with bird wings --> humanoid birds --> Joel and Felix --> Oscar Wilde and The Picture of Dorian Gray) Meep.
I sort of want to go to AN with you, but :\

YEY FOR AWESOME GRADES. hmm, but if you get a specialisation you don't like, are you allowed to appeal for a different one?

summer plans~ if you can find awesome people to do stuff with, then do the stuff that involves awesome people! also, i've been told that working is for Adults who are Done with School - until you and i start holding a permanent salary-paying job, we shouldn't be trying to earn money XD
