pacificpikachuStill need to catch up on comments. I keep getting distracted!
So, that Zoology final? The one I was referring to as Final From Hell? It took me thirteen hours. All-in-all, it was seventeen pages in twelve font, single-spaced. One hundred and twenty-seven paragraphs of dense, technical material. I worked on it for three hours on Tuesday night, then went to class at 6 AM the next morning, studied for the Calculus final and took it (and did awful, I'm sure) got home by 5 PM, worked on the Zoology final continuously from 5 PM until 1 AM, went to sleep, got up at 6 AM and went to school, worked on it for another four hours there, studied for my lab exam for two hours, took lab exam and then...freedom! I'm still a bit tired, needless to say. So much chaos.
Thankfully, though, there is no more of this chaos now! I'm going to kick back this summer, go to my anime conventions, watch anime with friends, raise as many wild birds as I can handle while still regaining some semblance of sanity, read lots of books and good manga, and draw and write. Well, we'll see about the writing, because I hardly ever get to that except in November (NaNoWrimo = ♥).
I spent today sitting around with intentions of finishing Kaiji, but then somehow I ended up cleaning animal cages and watching Discovery channel for most of the day instead. I would like to finish Kaiji soon, though, and when I go back to dad's I still really need to watch Princess Tutu. I just want to watch it on the pretty TV.
Today has been a good day for making friends! In addition to talking to Daniell for quite a while on YIM, I met and talked to![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
friskavk for a long time about Pokémon, the pillows, Toshihiro Kawamoto, anime conventions, and a number of other things. kasaiface and I also discovered we have eerily similar interests AND we'll both be at Fanime. So, hooray! Good day.
I also spent too much on Pokémon plush today. I need to actually save my money for Fanime, not spend it on REALLY CUTE RAICHU PLUSH. Too late, however, and I can't say I regret it one bit. It is a REALLY CUTE RAICHU PLUSH. Also managed to snag an Eevee Pokédoll for a mere $10 because the seller listed it as "Evee". Score! Now I just need Vaporeon, Flareon, and Jolteon. I'm sure I'll get them eventually. :>
Speaking of Fanime...it's in twelve days. H-how did that happen? It's terrifying how fast time is moving lately. I need to work on cosplay as wildly and frantically as I can these next few weeks, or there's no way I'll finish. I haven't even started Boota other than ordering the fur, and the Densuke head (which is merely a random structure made of Wonderflex at the moment)...needs a lot of work.
Still need to figure out where I'm getting the big sunglass lenses for Boota, so I inquired about it on Cosplay.com. Hmmm. Maybe I'll just buy one of those huge pairs of joke sunglasses and go from there.
