If anyone has a new fandom to throw at me, now is the time. I'M HAVING A MAJOR CASE OF FANDOM ADD!!!

I watched few eps of GLEE at my friend K's place yesterday. GLEE SONGS MAKE ME HAPPY. *hides in corner*

I want a Kurt and cuddle him forever ;A; *ships him soo HARD w/ HarryBlaine*


Also, these boys : TJ and Amal.


In other news, Dear Flisters! I need your help! Have you ever been victim of a case of creative censure? Do you know of a case that you feel strongly about? Talk to me lovelies!

I JUST HAD AN EPIPHANY GUYS.

The whole art unit I'm teaching my students this semester have dealt with animals and creatures and what their characteristics mean and what they can convey.


OMG I AM SOO DAEMON BRAINWASHED I HADN'T EVEN REALIZED. WHAT.

OTL

I figured it worked with their theme cause they are doing fables in french and their museum visit was about mythical creatures, and their book is Mademoiselle C who has a pet rock and is awesome, so I thought they'd relate.

WHY DOES MY BRAIN WORK THIS WAY?

Hi all!!

First off, HOUSEKEEPING ANNOUNCEMENTS:

I have decided to furthermore attempt to crosspost all my posts from DW.
Don't worry though, I don't plan on leaving LJ any time soon as most of my fannish activity is still based here. But I really support DW as a platform, and what with the recent shenanigans Lj just pulled, it's good incentive for me to get in gear and establish my DW a bit more.
So. My Dreamwidth is Lunatique for those of you who wish to add me there.

Also, in light of the recent LJ shenanigans, I wish to make clear the following (even if I'm sure all you sensible people know and understand this already.)

++ Please do not cross-post any comments made on my journal or linking to my journal in any capacity on Facebook/Twitter! Thank you!++


Life has been pretty busy in Yue-land~ I went down to Ontario to visit a friend after coming back from BC, and ended up staying a bit longer than expected. Then said friend came to Montreal with me and stayed over for a few days while she settled appartment stuff.

And then there were the most excellent guests staying at [personal profile] frigg's place. Lots of fannish fun was had.

Now school has started, and so has my job. My classes are very interesting so I'm super excited~ Plus I actually get to be in the same class as friends this year. \0/
The job is very simple, and I am basically paid to do... not very much at all, which is stupidly exhausting in a certain way. But I'm not complaining. Once schoolwork gets busier, I'll appreciate the time to work on homework.

I have a million things to draw and YES I AM AWARE how extremely extremely bad I am with owing people pics. I am slowly but surely making my way through the list. Fear not, I have not forgotten. I can only beg for forgiveness for the extreme lateness. *flops all over floor*
m=_=m

In other news, BBC Sherlock has eaten my brain. More fannish updates to come.

Cheers! <3

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
All things considered, I'm happy about my grades. )

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.

[livejournal.com profile] trekreversebang drafts are due in a week.
OTL I'm soo fucked. :(

Thank you everyone who have sent bday wishes! ;_; You're soo sweet, all of you!~ thank youuuu~~~ ♥♥

I volunteered as mediatrice for Nuit Blanche yesterday for this artwork.
It was pretty fun, minus the part i had to stay till 3AM, and then help clean up, read: scratch duck tape from floors. =_____= I got to bed at 5am (Thanks C&N for letting me crash on your couch!) so i'm slightly zombie right now despite the power nap i just took. Yue does not do sleepless nights :/

Olympics are over! ;_; I have developed a rather unhealthy obsession for certain figure skaters, but let's not get into that right now, kayz? :O I'll never get anything else done.

Just wanted to say hi, i'm not dead. School is slowly but surely gutting me alive, but I still love what i'm doing, so I have no right to complain. Ok enough whining, back to work.

TO-DO LIST TIMEZ! \0/
-Paint
-Finish Doll
-Finish Puppet
-Shoot and develop film
-Read articles about educational value of video games

O_O It's a tiny job, only one 3 hour shift per week, but hey, it's a job!!! 8D 8D 8D She didn't even interview me, just called me in cause she got my CV from another lady who DID interview me for another job I applied for.
The world is strange and I am grateful.

The painting class i'm taking is taught by 2 graduate students, one for Fall semester and one for Winter semester.
So we met the guy teaching Winter semester today.

HE KINDA LOOKS LIKE PAVEL.

*FLAILS*
lunatique: (clamp rips eyes)
:O So like the not-so-bad version of my worst fear kinda came true today. LET ME EXPLAIN! It's really not THAT bad.

Yesterday in Ceramics, the teacher showed us how to make slabs and built with them. He demonstrated with the downstairs slab roller because the one in the classroom was malfunctioning, and they operate differently anyway.
Part of our assignement was to prepare some leatherhard slabs for next class.
So I go in to the studio today to work on my stuff, and there's one other girl in the lab, so we get chatting. I decide I really don't want to go roll my slabs downstairs in the small claustrophobic room all alone. So I decide to try and use the upstairs slab roller, which got kinda repaired during the class. I got the other girl, whom I have seem operate this roller, to show me.
:/
This thing, as opposed to normal slab rollers, only roll one way.
There was inattention and lack of communication on both our parts cause i was still arranging the canvas when she started rolling.
So my right index finger got caught in it.
And since this thing DOESN'T ROLL BACK, I had to wrench it out. That stuff is sanded, man.

Needless to say I panicked for a couple of seconds cause THAT HURT and IT DOESN'T ROLL BACK and hkhdka sdahslkskad I NEED THIS FINGER.
Some of the skin has been scrapped of, but apart for that, I think my finger is still structurally sound. It's moving and all.
It's been throbbing ever since tho. I feel no pain, and i have sensation in that finger, but it feels like the circulation isn't great. You know like when you have something wound way too tight over it? Is that normal? :/ I figure it'd bruise and all.

I felt really dizzy and nauseous for a little while after the initial pain subsided, but the other girl stayed with me and got be bandaged and stuff. She was really sweet and feels guilty, and I kinda feel bad cause it's really not her fault. :/ *hugs her*

SO YEAH. MY WORST FEAR IS OF COURSE LOOSING PROPER USAGE OF MY RIGHT HAND. That's why table saws and other woodshop tools scare the hell out of me. At least, it was only a roller. :/ Stupid dangerous unidirectional roller... >_>

But i'm fine. I got more scared than actually hurt... (is there an expression like that in english? I french it's Avoir plus peur que mal.)

I need to stop thinking about what could have happened if my hand had been cuaght furthe dasjd hask dh ok not thinking about that. Shit.

/rant

Sorry for the whiny post. I needed to get that off my chest. :/
lunatique: (clamp rips eyes)
Ceramics rambling warning!
RAKU IS STILL THE BEST THING IN THE WORLD!! \0/ \0/ We did like 3 loads of firings today and some of my pieces turned out sooo good!! *_* I need to take pictuures! *0*
Totally worth the week of getting up at 6am to go work on ceramics! X3 *flails*
My grandma also really liked my bird-head piece, which makes me really happy! She has very traditional and "fine" taste when it comes to art, so i wasn't sure how much she would appreciate ceramic pieces. I'm glad she likes it! ^-^

In other news, i still fail at catching up on my fic-reading. :(
And i still need to work on the exchange pics.

MERLIN TOMORROW I AM SOO EXCITED! \0/

Yah sorry guys i have nothing interesting to share today. Here, have a song:
A wonderful francophone singer, Coeur de Pirate~ ♥

Gosh i love this song >_

:/

Sep. 17th, 2009 09:51 pm
lunatique: (emo kid)
First of all, have a SONG guys.
Cause what can I say? Appropriate song is appropriate to the climate of my day...

So they did end up changing my internship. I got my second choice, which is still a really freaking amazing prospect, but i can't help but be disappointed and frustrated. I WISH THEY HAD TOLD ME SOONER SO I WOULDN'T HAVE GONE TO THE ST-JAMES ORIENTATION. Cause seeing how awesome it is just... shows me what i'm missing. :(
It's like being handed a coveted shiny new toy and then having it taken away. I've been feeling sadfaced and like a petulant child all day. :(

But i did go to the new place's orientation today and it looked promising. I'm mostly just really excited to work with this population again. And my partner looks like she's gonna be super awesome.
I'm still petulant though. :/

OK MOVING ON.

GOOD THINGS THAT HAPPENED TODAY:
-TEA PARTY IN ART ED CLASS
-MAKING TEA BOWLS WITH CLAY IN ART ED CLASS
-MAKING NEW FRIENDS IN ART ED CLASS
-I had a sci-fi nerd moment during mask-fitting today (dust filtering masks are mandatory for ceramics class)
Photobucket
Our filters are little disks of FLASHY PINK FOAM. It takes very little to amuse me.
The lady put a big pager bag over our heads and sprayed concentrated something or other into it and told us to breathe deeply to make sure our masks well properly sealed.
XD We looked soo awesome. XD

And this is what I do when i'm frustrated. It actually helps a lot... >___>
LE DOODLE DUMP OF STRESS RELIEF )

I got such a scare today.

I am taking an online course this semester, and I'll admit that for the second half of the semester I haven't been keeping up with my classes.
So I try to sign into my portal today to get a couple of lectures done, seeing as my final is in 2 weeks.

And I can't sign in. No matter what I try.
Hey, no problem, system error, whatever, I call the helpdesk. Who tells me that the portal must have closed since classes have ended. THIS IS WHERE I START FREAKING OUT.

Fortunately, the woman is nice and helpful and asks me why i need it, so i say to revise for my exam, which is (part of) the truth. So she tells me to write to them and tell them my situation, promising to try and help me sort it out.

I write a pleading email to the tech support claiming ignorance and begging for good graces. Which they grant me.

THANK YOU ECONCORDIA ;_____;

So now I am starving to death but fighting to finish at least 3 lectures by tomorrow, just in case my good graces run out.
I think my hand is going to fall off.

Back!-ish

I am honestly ready to die. :(

Been pretty dead these past weeks anyway T__T I am behind on absolutely everything. Am stressed beyond measure, with schoolwork and due art and whatnot. 5 more days to go! I CAN DO IT! *flops*
I have my portfolio, 2 essay proposal+biographies, one oral and one contest submission all due within the begining of next week. DEAD I SAY!

I will stop complaining and not making sense here. Just wanted to drop in to say hi~ *hugs all*

HOPE YOU GUYS ARE HAVING A GOOD TIME! GOOD LUCK WITH EVERYTHING!!!

Am staying home sick, not that i had classes today anywayz(HA!) :( The throat sore developped into a cold. Luckily it's nothing worse than a runny nose and a healing throat sore~ =___=

I should not be complaining about school. What little homework i've got is actually pretty nifty & fun:
-Collage for computer art class
-Write self-intro as a childrens' fantasy ficion character (liek... o_O SCORE! xDDD)
-Find and read Golden Compass and BladeRunner

This last semester in cegep sounds promising indeed *-*

+Good Omens
I have no words for the awesome this place holds!
