Since Live Journal has been acting all crazy with its new ass hat rules, and seeing as how the majority of the comms that I lurk in seem to be moveing here I thought now would be a good time to make a move. I am not going to be getting rid of my LJ account (yet), but better to be safe then sorry.
So I will be posting all entries on both accounts for the time being.
Now if I can just figure out how to navigate IJ I'll be much happier ;p.

So, because I have nothing better to do here is my course timetable for the fall/winter...
1. HIS281Y1 History of Modern Japan MW3
2. HIS362H1 The Hansa Merchants W5-7
3. HIS322Y1 High Middle Ages R1-3
4. ENG235H1 The Graphic Novel W6-9
5. HIS243H1 Europe 1450 - 1648 TR11
6. HIS245Y1 Women in Euro History: From Renaissance to 20th C. T6-8
7. HIS309H1 The European Reformations T1-3
I think I may actuly (subconsciously, I think)be trying to kill myself. I mean I'll make myself sick with so much history! But I need it for my degree :( Seeing as I've now POSt-ed myself as a history specialist. Man, what was I on when I made that decision!?! And I'm so bloody determined to get five credits this year. I tell you, it will kill me.
Damn my Slytherin ambition!
I mean I know that the majority of these courses are suppose to be good, and most of the profs have good raitings, I just can't help thinking I may have bitten off more then I can chew. But I'm too stupidly stubborn to back off now. I need the five credits this year otherwise my plan is ruined! Well okay not ruined, but it sure as hell will take longer. *sigh*
But I can do this. I'm a Slytherin at heart (admittedly with a very liberal dash of Ravenclaw) my ambitions will not be thwarted! I will devise a cunning plan that will get me through this. And I will get all 80s to boot! (Well I at least better otherwise no grad school for me).
Hmmmm...where is a Blackadder when you need one.

I think I may try and teach myself latin this summer. Seeing as I would most likely fail the class cuz I suck at languages in genreal (english included). But if I taught myself then I could go at my own pace and maybe at a later date try my hand at the course. Any suggestions from the audience?

Hold these fleeting memories close,

they may yet keep you warm at night.

| Procrastination takes on a new form |
[02 Apr 2007|09:33pm] |
|
So the art of procrastination has manifested itself in a novel way today that form being, oddly enough, cooking. Instead of doing my work like i was suppose to i kept coming up with reasons to stay in the kitchen and cook! I was in the bloody kitchen from 1:30 to 6! I mean i was gonna make dinner anyhow, so i had to make the dough for the tart type thing so that had to be done earlier then the rest of the meal since it had to chill in the fridge for a while. But then I decide that we needed dessert too (something we never have normally) so i made a fucking cake! Instead of going back to do my work while the doug chilled in the fridge. By the time i was done with the cake i ended up starting in on dinner (i could have waited, but for some reason i decided dinner would be earlier then normal too). So instead of doing my work, or even cleaning my room (because it hasn't had a proper clean in god knows how long) I ended up spending the whole afternoon cooking! I ask you, what is wrong with me!? where did my academic dedication go?

 | You scored as Male. Being mostly male / masculine, within your structures of thinking simply means that your reasoning powers are (the way they are perceived in Western Culture`) higher than the one of the opposite sex. Psychoanalsis claims this to come at the price of creative expression - a rational thinker can not think out of the box, it is claimed.

I am too creative when I want to be!
And I know I can think outside my box I've been doing it all year. I just prefer the rational and reasonable, to irrational and over emotional. Although for any one who knows me would know I am a very emotioanl person, the thing is I just don't like it.

| Lysistrata! |
[28 Jan 2007|01:09am] |
So I went tonight to see Lysistrata at HartHouse it was great!
It was very funny and rather well done. The only thing I didn't like about it was that for some reason they put songs in it. I guess to modernize it or something, unfortunately all the songs (there were like three or four) seemed kinda tacked on. But other then that it was wonderfully funny. full of innuendo!
I thought they did a great job of putting there own spin on it too. Instead of wearing a phallus in the, uh...normal place you would where one, they made them into masks, which was a great touch and made it even funnier!
So although they could have done somethings a bit better (like take out the singing) overall I thought it was great and would happily see it again.
So two thumbs up from me :D

 | You scored as Dry Jello Powder. The first thing most people mention about you is your sense of humor. It's arid, sharp and concentrated. A little of you goes a very long way and if people don't treat you just right, they'll soon find themselves in a sticky situation. Still, you're quite handy and versatile despite such potential difficulties. Most people aren't sure exactly what you are, at least not until they start working with you. Do everyone a favor and wear a nametag, ok? From a distance, you're pretty anonymous.

disappointed |

So I've been thinking about going to grad school, because, well...I want to avoid real life. But the only discipline I am remotely good at is history, unfortunately if I were to go in the History grad program I would need a language, either french or latin. Now the problem with this is that I SUCK AT LANGUAGES!
Hell I'm lucky if I can spell in english let alone anything else. True, I was stuck in french immersion for the first 11 yrs of my life but that doesn't mean I remember any of it.
*sigh*
maybe its a sign that I shouldn't do grad school

I dyed my hair today. Its now a kind of dark red. I don't like it. Its much too dark, and it makes me looked kinda pink. :(
Now what am I gonna do? I suppose I could dye it again in a lighter shade, maybe blond to counter act the dark red, but that presents two problems. One being it could damage my hair and two I don't really have the money for it.
Maybe if I wash it a lot it'll lighten up?
*sigh* I look like a twit
Oh well live and learn I guess.

Isn't it nice to know who's in your corner. Although it sucks when you relise its no one but you standing there.
I feel as if I'm being punished for wanting to do well.
That at best I'm not listened to, and at worst called "weird" (in other words freak)when I express why I feel the way I do.
Its always nice to know who's in your corner.
