Before Things Get Too Crazy ...

So, after writing my last entry I told myself that I would be sure to write another entry before things got too crazy.  Unsurprisingly, I've failed in my mission. I blame it on my lazy personality that resists the idea of doing any more talking about myself than absolutely necessary. I find this pretty ridiculous since I love getting into contact with my friends and family back home, but I can't bother myself to update them on how life is going in the "Emerald City." (If it were up to me, I would have called it the "Gray City," but it doesn't have quite the same ring...and it might scare away even more people than its reputation for massive amounts of rainfall already has.)

Of course, being a brilliant writer (note the sarcasm inherent in this statement), I was heartbroken to be informed by one of my friends that I'd capitalized several nouns that did not need to be capitalized, in addition to having a few silly grammar mistakes in my prior post. Originally I intended to edit the thing, but I decided that leaving my mistakes might help capture some of my personality, and make this format feel a bit more personable.

However, being new to the world of blogging, I really have no clue how to make my blog fancy or remotely personal. I have only myself to blame: I seem to know a lot about facebook and I post fanfiction on a (semi) regular basis (when I've had time to write and/or remember to update), but I have never really acquainted myself with this platform.

So prepare to be bored. I have no camera, so any pictures would need to be stolen from google images or facebook friends, and since I'm not particularly photogenic (I'm pretty sure my photobombs outnumber any good pictures 10:1), there is not a high chance of me embarrassing myself further by uploading more pictures of myself acting foolish.

On that note, I will try to talk about last quarter some, since some people may not have recieved the full update. You got the quick version, and the next few posts will probably be my foggy memories regarding a few fun (or not-so-fun) events from last quarter. Or maybe not. It all depends on my mood when I write my next post.

As things stand now, I will only say that I enjoyed my three-day weekend too much and did not study nearly enough, and now I will be forced to stay up late finishing my homework and studying for imminent tests in my third-year Japanese class...

Sometimes I hate my lazy side. This is one of those times. I'm not sure how I managed to pull mostly good grades out of last quarter with all the dorking around I did, but I'm afraid if I continue dorking this quarter, I'll get a similar grade in Japanese, which was the lowest I've ever gotten (barely a B). I shall now dismiss myself and stop wasting time, moving on to studying for Japanese since I've finished studying my communications reading and accidentally killing online quizzes. (You'll probably be hearing more on that later...)

Until next time, God bless!
