Just one more 8D JUSTTTTT OONNNEEEE MOOOOOREEE. Midterm that is. And then I'll be freeeee~~~ FREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee. To start on that 10 page essay that I should have started a month ago.


Yeah. There's really no point to this journal at all, except to waste your time. Over these past few days, I've come to that sudden jarring realization that I'm going to graduate soon. On looking back upon these years of academic learning, one often ponders upon the wonderful wisdom imparted to them during their brief, far too brief stay.......yeah. No. Here's what I really learned:


1) In class, the long tables are the most comfortable to sleep on. None of this "Oh crap, Imma falling off the tiny table connected to mah chair!" or "Oh crap, I just smacked the attentive, good student beside me with my sprawling sleeping posture."

2) Textbooks are made from the ground-up corpses of students who couldn't handle the stress. Why else are they so expensive?

3) Like cake, the editions are a lie. You will always find to your dismay, that your insanely expensive "Edition 7" differs from the older, cheaper "Edition 6" solely because "Chapter 5" has been renamed "Chapter 4" and they've also added their pet dog in the "dedicated to" section.

4) Every student graduates with a degree in BS.

5) Wikipedia as a whole is frowned upon by professors, NEVER, EVER cite it as a source. That being said, Wikipedia's own sources often come from reputable, scholarly journals and are entirely usable for your own citation. Loophole FTW.

6) Bibliography: The list of works you didn't read through to write your essay.

random insert: First three people to notice this sentence can has a free sketch from me. Just reply in the journal saying "I see what joo did thar!" or..something along those lines and your desired character for me to mangle artistically.

7) Organic Chemistry: Eating unsuspecting students alive since its inception into academia.

8) Confounds, Conclusion, Analysis etc.: The parts of the scientific write-up where you explain why your experiment failed and why you still deserve full marks despite your failure.

9) Group Projects: In which 50% of your grade depends on the knowledge and work ethic of complete strangers.

10) "It depends.": The most common answer given for the average student's most pressing questions.


And....going back to studying for that last midterm. (Not.)

"You're crossing a suspension bridge. The bridge is wide enough for only one person to pass at a time. A man is approaching from the other side. He's carrying a gun."
"I shoot him."
"Suppose he's your husband?"
"I shoot him."
"In self-defense?"
"No. To spare him the grief. One must live. One must die."


"You've left everything behind - your country, your identity, your past and ideals...but there's still one thing you haven't let go of."


*Foams at the mouth*

Curse YOU, Kojima-san. Haven't you made enough grown men cry? D<

Yes. Bassara is a huge Metal Gear Solid fan. This obsession flares up at each new game. I shall not apologize for any rabid ranting that may come in the near future. :)

Oh boy. Well. Um. I don't know what to say. Nuri and I decided to google up "ParaShi"...because we're vain like that. But HAHA....humbling experience much?? I didn't even expect to find anything besides our own pages but... we found somebody talking about it on youtube 8D....and uh, a french forum thread talking about it...and people stealing our ideas for RP characters 8D. (The fact that it's popular enough to be stolen is an amusing idea to us.) Seriously guys, wow. I can't believe our series that hasn't even been STARTED yet has...so many fans..from ...so many places. It's both daunting XD...and flattering. LOL. I guess what I really want to say to all of you is, thanks for being so enthusiastic about it. Apologies that you'll all have to wait so long for the dang thing to come out...and we're hoping it won't disappoint. XD

オレは"白い牙"を本当の英雄だと思ってる...


And there we have it. The last arc I ever loved and probably ever will love, in all its animated glory. Took you long enough, guys. I have but two complaints:

1) Sasuke, why the HECK were you on the cover of volume 27 ANYWAYS? You're not even IN the volume. Thanks for taking the limelight on what was probably the ONLY cover kakashi-as-a-kid could have EVER appeared on.

2) Is somebody EATING the insane amounts of revenue Naruto generates for Studio Pierrot? They couldn't have bothered to get some other person to voice Kakashi as a kid D: ?

Oh well. It was still good :( "Good" being gauged on the fact that somebody dying was coupled with the correct emotion of feeling sad. I can't remember the last time I felt any sort of proper emotions for something related to Naruto's chapter of the week.

I blazed through Code Geass in the past two days. It was very nice IMO....and I suppose all I have to say is: Lelouch. Worst. Runner. Ever. and...emotional self-sacrificial ending FTW.


Anyways. That will be all. :)
