Finals Week: Short classes in a glass.
I love finals. I can finish them in half the time alotted (except for math ones, which take me the whole time plus a bit), so I get to leave early. Yesterday I could leave so early that I actually had to get a ride home unless I wanted to wait for 2 and a half hours for my carpool. Today I finished my 10 minute final in my "Intro to Electrical Engineering" class. Later I have a final in C. I suspect it will be just like all the other tests we've had in that class so far. But what that means is that I'm running on my own schedule tonight! Woo... I'm worried about my art final because it's based entirely on a book which I havn't read (and, although I've tried, I can't bring myself to read it either.) So I'll be BSing my way through that one. Good news is that it's multiple choice. BUt the first part of teh test I've ot big problems upcoming. It's a slide matching segment and I just don't know most of them. Unlike the first test, he hasn't run the slides every day for the last 7 weeks, so I don't have most of them memorized. *Sigh* so we'll see.
I've also found a new comic (Yea!) that I like called "El Goonish Shive", but I can't decide if it's shonen, shojo, or hentai. There is action, romance, and gratuitious use of a transformation ray. It's wierd enough that just calling it hentai probably works best., but only because of it's preversion of the character's form. Interestingly, this comic has the most solid plot of all of my faves, Megatokyo wanders like a 2 year old's attention, Nekobox gave up on a continuing storyline months ago, Help Desk loves plot holes, 8-Bit Theater is okay, but seems to ebb and flow about the topic, and RPGWorld and Adventurers will give you schizophrenia from all the multiple topic jump arounds (RPGWorld has no less than 4 standing parties). Although it sometimes jumps around, El Goonish Shive has been progressing nicely along on the plot, leaving no tiny point forgotten.
It rocks.
On the FFXI front, not much is happening. Why? Well, some of the games I've been waiting to be availible for rent from Blockbuster finally have been in. In the last 3 days I've done nothing but play on my Game Cube. I beat Tony Hawk's Underground in 2 days on Normal mode (There's 4 modes, really easy, easy, normal, and hard.) Considering how much I actually suck at one player games, that's impressive. And yesterday I played Mario Party 5 with Cyan and Vap for most of the evening. So Kilara has been level 20 now for almost a week. And isn't at all close to level 21. Oh well. At least I've been checking on my plants. :)
Well, that's about it. See ya in my next post.
