Just a quick update--

Finally made the move to dw from lj. I've been wanting to for awhile. I've just never had enough time. Although the whole process of importing everything took less time than I expected lol.

I had to put my kitty cat Eddie to sleep two weeks ago. He was very sick and in a lot of pain. I know I made the right decision because he's at peace now, but I'm still hurting and missing him like crazy. T___T

I recently adopted a new kitten! His name is Sebastian and I call him Sebby for short. He's a tiny little guy that likes to crawl on my face and lick my nose. He's such a pistol too but I love him so much already. I can't wait to watch him grow. He's such a loving and playful little kitty. <3

That's all for now~

Maybe.

(It's not out forever but one month is almost forever for me so yeah.)

I'm officially on winter break~

This past semester has kicked my ass. I'm so happy to have it done and over with! I took my last two finals (math and chemistry) yesterday. My math final was a joke and I literally guessed on every single problem so I'll probably get like 50/250 (if that orz) and not be able to pass the class. All I know is if I have to take it again (more like when I have to take it again) I am taking a class with a different teacher because the teacher I had for the class I took this semester was completely incompetent. Before the final I was talking with the people in my class and like almost everyone said they're going to have to take the class again. A lot of them said they failed the first two exams and almost all of the quizzes. And I'm sorry but if a majority of your class is failing the exams and quizzes then there's a problem with your teaching. My chemistry final was alright. I don't think I did super good like I did on my midterm but I also don't think I failed it. I'll probably end up with a high B in that class (unless he grades on a curve then I might get an A!!) and so it's all good. I ended up with a B in my Roman Achievement class because I totally read the due date wrong for my 100pt post-course test and missed taking it. Ended up with an A- in psychology somehow? Idk, I calculated my grade and I know I had a B in that class but I'm assuming he grades on a curve and that's how my grade went up? Not complaining though lol.

Next semester I'm taking some hard classes: Biological Structure and Function, Organic Chemistry (actually I don't think this one is too hard since it's worth only 2 credit hours), Sociology, and The Greek Achievement. If I have to take modeling algebra again then I'm dropping the Greek Achievement since I can take my last humanities requirement any time.

For now though school is overrrrr and I plan on spending my break trying to get caught up with all the dramas and tv shows I've missed. I still haven't finished the dramas I was watching from summer season OTL.

Apparently there's going to be a bad winter weather system coming through tomorrow. There's an advisory for the whole day. I'm kind of already sick of snow and it isn't even January yet. I was hoping for a mild winter but I guess that's not going to be the case this year lol. The weather has been strange though. I mean it literally went from being like 50 degrees to 20 degrees within a few days. And there was even a tornado watch in the middle of November! Crazy stuff.

How is everyone?

Made it through my first week of class. \o/ It's going to be a long and hard semester, especially since I'm taking modeling algebra and chemistry. So far my favorite class has been my Intro to Prof. Nursing class. The teacher is really nice and the class is interesting. Overall I'm just exhausted.

After spending many hours on the phone with financial aid, I managed to get everything pretty much straightened out. I say pretty much because they screwed up my direct unsubsidized loan and didn't give me the full amount at first and I had to actually go into the financial aid office and talk to them before they got it figured out. Now the credits show up on my account, but who knows when the money will actually get disbursed. Are all colleges as awful as this when it comes to financial aid or is it just KSU?

I was supposed to be moving into the new house this weekend but it doesn't look like that is going to happen. Like I said above, I'm still waiting on about 2000$ of my financial aid refund to come because that's basically what I am going to use to buy furniture + pay first month's rent. Pretty much everything except necessities are packed and it sucks that we're not able to move until probably next week or the week after. I'm a nervous wreck about the whole thing. I want to move so badly and I'm afraid my mom's friend is going to think that we're backing out then give the place to someone else. (I know logically this is not going to happen but it's what keeps running through my mind and driving my anxiety through the roof. :/)

My mom quit her job so I've been struggling to find something because we need money to pay bills when we move. I applied at Subway down the road from my house and then I applied at the McDonald's, Arby's, and Burger King that's across from my campus. I'm going to look into some student jobs on campus because truthfully it would work out better for me if I could get a job there and work on the days I have class, that way I won't have to constantly try to find a ride.

I feel like I'm just barely holding everything together tbh. So much is being thrown at me at once and I'm still not sure I am going to be able to handle everything.

It's so freaking hot outside right now. I seriously cannot wait for the cold front to move through and cool things off.

Today's the last day for me to relax and not worry about anything. So I'm not going to write what I originally was going to and instead I'm just going to focus on fandom stuff for this entry. That way I don't have to think about everything that's causing me so much anxiety and just be chill for the last day I possibly can.

The last season of Dexter starts tonight. I don't have Showtime so I'm going to have to download the episodes. I hope I can find a reliable site that uploads stuff in 720p. I'm excited for the last season, especially after watching the season preview. I'm very anxious to see how everything ends. Is Deb going to kill Dexter? Is Dexter going to go to jail? Will he kill himself? Will he kill Deb? Or will there be a complete plot twist in which Deb lets Dexter go or ends up becoming someone like him? Ahhhh, I can't wait to see how everything will be wrapped up!!!

I was going to write about music stuff but I'm too tired now.

How the actual fuck is it June already??????

I've come to realize that summer is both my favorite and least favorite time of the year. I feel like at the start of the year I look forward to it, to getting a break. But once it's here I want it to be over with. I guess I hate the idleness of it.

Ended up with As in all my classes (well A- in World Geography). I was actually really surprised that I ended up with an A in my Earth History class because I thought for sure I was going to end up with a low B. I calculated my grade from the points my teacher posted on Blackboard and I definitely had a low B, but she still gave me an A so idk. I can't feel proud of it because I don't feel like I earned it. But whatever I guess.

Speaking of college stuff, I'm thinking of changing my major. It's not that I don't like Poli Sci or think it's a worthwhile major or anything like that. I think knowing and understanding about politics (both national and international) is really important. It's important to be informed. However, I'm kind of opening my eyes to the reality of a liberal arts degree. There's not much I can do with a bachelor's degree in political science. I'd have to definitely get a master's or higher if I wanted to be able to get a decent paying job. And truthfully, I refuse to be that student with a 4-year degree working at McDonald's. I won't fucking do it. So I'm thinking of switching to a nursing major. Actually I'd like to go up to a master's degree so I can work as a nurse practitioner. And I figure getting a BSN is better than a degree in poli sci because with a BSN, I can work as an RN while going to grad school. Of course this is all assuming I actually get into the nursing program. I have to talk to my academic advisor about it, but he's not in until summer semester starts so I have to wait. I might actually skip talking to him and just talk to someone from the College of Nursing. But yeah, this is something I've been thinking long and hard about it and I think I'm going to go for it. Fingers crossed I can get accepted into the program!

The other day I cleaned out my music collection. I deleted a shit ton of music that I don't listen to anymore. Then of course I asked for music recs and ended up downloading a ton of music (and I'm not even done yet). Out of everything people recommended, I've gotten into Rurutia the most. Seriously it was love at first listen. I like the softness and peacefulness of her music. If you're ever looking for new music to check out, I recommend her x10! Salyu is another singer I've really gotten into. Also Waa Wei--her voice is beautiful. It kind of reminds me of Regina Spektor's voice at times. There are others too; I have a huge list lol. But yeah, those are the three I've really gotten into at the moment. If anyone wants to, feel free to comment with any music recs~!

I think that's it for now. It's 1:30am and I need to watch Six Feet Under because I haven't for a few days and I'm having withdrawals.
