@pent: glad you weren't part of that joy.
@cocks: in places of joy.

It's cute and soft.

So, the aunt I don't really care much for passed away this morning. TBH, I'm only concerned about how my uncle feels about all of this

[Chocofreak13]

hope he's okay. ;^;

@cocks: #college

@leaf: i'm glad to hear that, i'd be worried if it wasn't. ^^


so i'm being forced to watch the first two hunger games movies. seems Steve has it in his head about going on a double-date to see the new one in november, but since i haven't seen any of them till now he needs to get me up to speed. the whole experience has me rolling my damn eyes out of my head but if he digs it, i'm gonna at least give it a try. i just hope it goes both ways, since if he's a constant taker or the hunger games is all he decides to talk about, we're gonna have a serious sit down.

Hunger Games isn't my cup of tea but it's decent as far as YA franchises go. If anything my biggest complaints are the heavy-handed allegorical themes (A SMALL RICH OVERCLASS VS. POOR STARVING MASSES, isn't that JUST LIKE OUR WORLD TODAY?!), the lack of background information on /how/ society got as fucked up as it is (at least in the movies — I feel like there's a much more interesting story behind the one we're actually seeing), and the Obligatory Romantic Subplot™, but the vast majority of authors seem to believe that romance (preferably heterosexual) is a necessary part of any work of fiction so that's really more of a medium-wide complaint. Entertain watching it — even if it's only for Steve — and if you still can't stand it, let him know you didn't enjoy it and want to find some other things you can enjoy (or at least tolerate) together.

Its Japanese counterpart is superior, since it takes itself far less seriously -w-

@pent: i cracked up so much. xDD
@bells: even if i HATE it i'm gonna tolerate it for the sake of give and take. the first two movies are 5 hours, and considering there's only 4 planned (third coming out late Nov.), i think i can bite the bullet on this one. i don't see it becoming a focal point, and if he tries to make it one, i'm gonna be frank and honest that i have no interest but saw it all for his sake because i care. and that if he wants to make it up to me, let's marathon Kaiba or both Addams Family movies or schedule some time off so we can go do something.

@cocks:

it's REALLY important to pace yourself in college. skipping sleep to cram and do papers and whatnot may SEEM like typical college life, and you may kick yourself for NOT doing that, but the fact is that's a REALLY toxic way to live and you actually absorb information better when you're nice and rested. you function better, and your metabolism is more stable as well, meaning you'll have more energy and be healthier. (plus it's good for your skin, your mental state....)

tl;dr: no matter what anyone says, don't skip rest periods when you need them. you'll be better in school for it.

@leaf: she's one of. i argue that Lum is pretty goddamn hot.


volunteering today went lovely. we even have a new member: an 'energetic' young boy named Ethan. despite his rowdiness, we managed to have a decent time and i figured out what i was doing wrong with the projector (turns out i need to drag stuff to the OTHER side....why the hell didn't i think of that), and we ended up chatting a good deal after club was over. despite my dad being a bitch all day, i'm having a decent day. AND OH MY GOD THIS NEW STEVEN UNIVERSE EPISODE.

Indeed. When I took my GED, one of my sister's tips was "when they offer you a break, take it"; they had us do the first 2 subjects in one sitting, and after that you were allowed to take a 15-minute break between the remaining questions, which I made good use of to get a drink of water and prepare myself for the next subject -w-

[Chocofreak13]

it works well for long tests, and also for long periods of study. our country doesn't value the importance of resting anymore, and it's coming back to bite us in the ass.
