Sunday
- Got a call and was asked by one of my old professor to come as a guest speaker to her class Monday so I agreed even though I’ve got an insane amount of work to do, I decided it would be a good chance to see her again and get in some extra points among the professor as a guest speaker.

- Helped Aniki with his reading assignments because they were as crazy as mine and he’s mostly in ART classes!! @__@
- Read the entire play of Fiddler On The Roof
Monday
- Website was back up, but had some problems with it. Everything was completely changed and I couldn’t find a damn thing. Emails weren’t working. You couldn’t d/l things from the student files. Everything was screwy.

Tuesday
- This day was not as insane as Thursday, but it was still tiring. Most things weren’t due today so it wasn’t as hectic and the fact that the website had cause everyone so much problems, no one was really prepared (profs included) so we couldn’t really do anything much in classes.
- CW: Was supposed to have discussed the story but more than half the class didn’t have it because they couldn’t d/l it from the website. Because of this we did some free-writing instead. I was immensely happy about this since we hadn’t written a damn thing yet and this was supposed to be a friggin creative WRITING class. We’d read like it was more like a literature class so this chance to write what we wanted was nice.
- Publishing: Nothing of importance. I continued writing what I’d started the class before in my notebook instead since this guy doesn’t allow laptops in his class. *eyeroll*
- GLBT: Handed in report. Was given next assignment due in a couple weeks. Had an in class essay/reaction paper to a question posed to us.
- Hybrid: Nothing particularly interesting. Luckily I was able to pretend I knew what I was talking about in regards to Sula, and no one was the wiser. 8D;;
- Break: Actually got the chance to sit with Aniki in the car in a nice scenic part of the campus and EAT SOMETHING. @~@
- World Lit: Presented in class project from last class. Took our first quiz in this class and holy crap it was not what I was expecting at all. That’s for sure. It was 50 questions and 2 essay questions! AHHHHHHH!! DDDD8 I didn’t have time to finish the 2nd essay question right and then I rambled in the first one and and and—yeah I didn’t come out of this class feeling all that great to be honest with you. U_U
- Break: ...uh... I don’t remember actually. I think I went in to class early or maybe I slept. MY MEMORY’S GOING!! *WOESSSSSSSS*
- Theatre: Talked about the play I chose (Fiddler on the Roof) and discussed the dynamics of what made the play a good one. Then went about reenacting some of it with my classmates. Basically all we did... o_o
- Got home and went straight to work on some of the insane things due on Thursday
- Also worked on my own writing because if I didn’t I thought I’d go mad.
- Dance for 4 hours throughout the night and it felt DAMNED. GOOD.

Thursday
- Was up until 8:15 this morning working on homework. Class start at 10. Got half an hour of sleep then sped to class and STILL got there on time. HOW? I DO NOT KNOW. ;;;;;;;;
- I AM SO TIRED WTF
- CW: Had our first critiques in the class and it was... amusing and sad at the same time. Interesting conversations from mostly everyone but the first girl, the one who’s piece I torn to pieces in my critique (nicely though) for her piece of crap story with all its inconsistencies made me pretty angry with her flippant attitude and excuses for why it was so bad. =__=;; I... just didn’t need to hear her speak. Really. It made me feel like ‘why had I even bothered giving her the advice I gave if that’s her attitude???’ Really discouraging from that standpoint. AND DID I MENTION I WAS TIRED? I did not need her shit. It really pissed me off and my lack of sleep only made the situation worse. The second one was much better and the girl was really appreciative for our feedback even with we pointed out the flaws. Overall: Bearable class, but sort of irritating in its way.
- Publishing: Actually not all that boring, plus I got out early. Handed in research, Book Idea, Table of Contents, & Editorial Report at end of class. We had a guest speaker from Kodansha who I knew speaking to us. We saw each other and was like “HEY!! IT’S YOU! WASSUP??? :3333” xD It was amusing. The prof noticed this and was surprised we knew each other. She told him that I actually worked for the company (which I’d been withholding from him because I wanted to learn as much as I could from a “senior publisher” like he claimed himself to be, but really just sort of grates on my nerves most of the time) and you should’ve seen the look on his face. He actually got red. I was tempted to rub it in his face more.... but I didn’t. No need. I’ll do it next class when I correct him for using a term incorrectly or bashes the practices of “newbies” just because he doesn’t like ‘em. 8D
- GLBT: PRESENTATION!! AHHHHHHH D: I all but forgot I had to present the damn thing in class so when I got in and everyone was talking about presenting their project I wanted to crawl into a hole and die. D8 I have another presentation in my next class so I was not looking forward to two of them in a row. That was like mass-murder of something. I messed up my improv speech at least 67483985874398482 times but I kept them entertained with laughter with jokes about how bad I was doing and how I’d make Minister banish me from the country. Either way, I got through it somehow... though the grade is still left to be seen. *siiiiighs*
- Hybrid: PRESENTATION #2!! Class broke up into groups and mine was about color pigmentation as seen in the novel (that I hadn’t read oh el oh ellllllllaaaaahhhhh 8D;;;) but it was actually pretty easy and since I offered to be recorder I didn’t have to really say anything. I gave my two-cents, found stuff in the book and wrote it down. The rest of the group presented and we’ll do this again next Tues with Atonement. I got to know more people in my huge-ass class which was nice and found out they were quite pleasant people so I didn’t have to work in a hostile situation. (Thank you deities above!) Some of them knew who I was, which was a little creepy, but they weren’t stalkerish, just fans or had seen/heard about me on campus lol. Surprisingly this class woke me up a bit, but it only lasted until I the end of class. Then I was like molasses on my feet. =A=
- Break: GUESS WHAT? I’M STILL TIRED AS FUCK.
- World Lit: QUIZ TODAY! HAHA LOL FUCCCCK T___T Oh god, by this class I was so tired and felt like I hadn’t accomplished a thing that I just sat there and stared at the desk in front of me. Worse yet I got back the quiz I did last class and it was NOT what I was hoping for. Friggin C+. WHAT.THE.FUCK. I... I sinking into that place that a lot of artsy people like me and Aniki and others like us fall into when we try our hardest and then someone throws something like this in our face. I... I... I-I just might have burst into tears or something if Takahashi spoke up and said that he couldn’t take this quiz and that he was fed up and just ranted. I didn’t hear much of it because I was just sort of crippling under the pressure, feeling the craziness of this week hitting me full force (which I was not happy about, usually it happens after we get home at least, not in the middle of class!!) but thank you god he somehow managed to convince the prof to postpone half the quiz for Tues. THIS WAS PROBABLY THE ONLY HIGHLIGHT OF MY DAY ;0; We only took the 1st part of the quiz and the essay half will be on Tues AND when I went to talk to him about the quiz he (he’s really a nice guy and I like him quite a bit, I’ve got NOTHING against him at all and I can tell he likes me too since he often talks to me after class and asks how things are going, how classes are going, how my brother’s doing, if we need any help with anything or if I’d expand upon something I’d brought up in class discussion, etc) said he could tell I was just exhausted and asked if I’d gotten a chance to read (the story the essay portion of the quiz will be on) and I told him honestly that I hadn’t and he seemed to understand and said a lot of people hadn’t. We were all behind in that class because the reading-load was so heavy. He said he hoped we all caught up over this weekend because he couldn’t really push off the quiz any longer because they were so behind in the schedule. BUT ANYWAY. When I asked him about he quiz, he was surprised too and asked what happened. I explained and long story short, he said I could retake it no penalty. T___T Bless that man. SERIOUSLY. I will not let this chance go by. I’ll take it Tues during my short break before the class. Coming out of that class I was exhausted, the quiz was still long and tiring and I was still not up to quiz-taking material right now, but it was better because I at least knew what the hell I was doing.
- Break: STILL FEELIN IT D8;;;
- Theatre: Hoshit I am so feelin it--*SHOT* Okay so I’ll finally stop bitching now. I’m trying to keep myself awake by typing this up and it’s kinda working. We’re supposedly doing critiques today but it’s not happening that way at all. Luckily we got early so I sent a text to Aniki and told him that if he wanted I’d come to his class, otherwise I’d bring the car around and go to sleep. xD;; He apparently thought I’d sleep better if I stayed with him (which is true, so I went, and I did... Veni Vidi Vici??? *SHOT FOR LAME*)
- When Aniki’s class was over I yanked him and his stuff off to the car and made him drive us home ASAP and when we got home I collapsed on the couch and didn’t move until 2:50 in the morning xD;
