Because I might-have-not-so-much-would-say-I've-gotten-a-bit-of-the-writing-bug again. Also hello again, flist, and have a recycled meme, especially for the writers.

When you see this, post an excerpt from as many random works-in-progress as you can find lying around. Who knows? Maybe inspiration will burst forth and do something, um, inspiration-y.

NOTE: These are all my WIPs *and for collabs, from my share of the writing*.

WHEEEEEEEEEEEE I'M BACK AT SCHOOL. Had the internet come back on this morning. And I sorta nodded off in my only class today. I know, stay classy Phoeny.

BUT ANYWAYS, IT WAS OCEANOGRAPHY and I have two professors, Dr. L and Dr. B. B specializes in the rocks and L specializes in the biology part of oceanography. By the intro class, it seems pretty cool and then they both warned us that there WILL BE a ton of information to remember. Ugh, this isn't a history class, so I must shift my way of processing information. BUT POWERPOINT SLIDES! I love powerpoint slides, minimal writing, and I can focus on fanfic plotting.

So I got the paperwork for the campus job I mentioned (YES FOOD SERVICE), and I will fill it out and return tomorrow after classes. Lots and lots of classes. I don't eat lunch till 2:30pm at the earliest. So yea, I'll bring some snacks in my SWISS GEAR backpack (this is a giant among backpacks!)

Literature of Japan is turning out to be great, and I haven't had class yet! No attendance is taken, and I know when all the midterms are in advance, as well as reading assignments.

Also, we're having another heat wave this week. And two residential building opened up next to mine. I need to make friends over there, because their hallways are air conditioned. It looks more like a hotel than a college dorm building. But it's ok because it's 20 feet away.

And for something completely different:
So LeetNEET has published my review of Utena the movie here. I don't want to copypasta because then it'll really be tl;dr and that's not necessary.

However, the admin of the site told me to check out something: ACTA, or the Anti-Counterfeit Trade Agreement. Please, PLEASE go and take a look, because it's about (mostly internet) privacy rights. The link is right HERE. And as a fellow pirater, I can get sued for a lot if caught. But it's not limited to media and intellectual property. It applies to generic drugs as being deemed contraband, ISP service charging more to search for pirated material, and airport searches (and not just luggage checks).
