All right. So, now that that's over with....
*curls up* Ugh, it's so cold out. All I want to do is sleep. I didn't sleep very well last night, and I had to get up early for my Aboriginal Lit class, and I didn't have breakfast this morning because I was rushing, and so on, and so forth. And I have so much homework that I just don't know what to do with myself. D:
In short, this kind of sucks.

Posted the fic up at the comm - hopefully it will be well-received. And sorry for those who will have it show up on their flist again. Ahaha. ;)
Still haven't had a chance to type up the 1812 thing. Might do that tonight if I have time. Not sure if I will wait until I'm done the WWI/II thing to edit it, or not.
(Okay, maybe I just don't want to work on the 1812 thing because it's long.) The WWI/II thing is unfortunately looking like a much weaker draft, so I'll have to work double-hard on it to make it good. How annoying. There are some things I like about it, just... ehhhh. It has issues.
Preview:
"Poor Feliks. He must be in rough shape."
"I thought you didn't like him."
"I didn't say that. I only said that he doesn't seem all that bright."

Oh Feliks. The valley girl accent throws 'em off. ;)

Sigh. I have to read Jeanette Armstrong's Slash for next week. The prof says it's not a particularly good novel, not in the way we generally mean something is a good novel, anyway. But, it's an important work, so we're studying it. Oh, joy. *flop*

When I was walking home today, I got to thinking about stuff, just random little things, you know. And I ended up kind of frustrated. Not quite the right word, but the best I can think of at the moment. I just - ah, this is silly! At the same time, it isn't. I wish I had money. Money and time. Only one of these things would not do, though 't certainly would help me.

It's just - I want to see things. I want to go around Canada, I want to see everything. I want to go to Europe, I want to wander around, wander all over the bloody continent, see everything. West, south, north, east, doesn't matter, I want to see it all. I've been looking at photos recently and some of those places are just so beautiful.

But the thing is, I can't just do it, because I don't have money, and I don't have time. I don't have anyone to come with me, either, but that's less of an issue, because I'm sure if I had money, I could kidnap persuade Hokuto or DNA or Casey to go with me, as they'd be far more likely to join me if they didn't have to pay, hah.

It bugs me. I hear people say, "Oh, yeah, I travelled in Europe over the summer" or "Oh, hey, I went to China" and so on, and I think, where do these people get the money? Are their parents rich? And where do they get the time? When I'm not working at school, I'm working at a job, and I know for certain I wouldn't be able to get the time off to go somewhere, and neither would I be able to afford it if I could get the time.

*drums fingers*
I think. Ah. I think that after my trip down to California, I'll start saving up to go to Europe. Doesn't really matter where in Europe. England or France or Italy or Greece or Germany or, hell, Sweden or Denmark or Poland or Ukraine. Europe as a whole is a pretty big place, and there's lots of stuff in it, and I can decide the "where" later. And it doesn't matter when, either. Surely it will take at least two years or so to put together enough money.

It's just - I guess I'm worried that if I don't do it now, I won't have another chance. I think of my parents, who went to Mexico once when they were young, and haven't had the time or the money to do it since. I don't have time or money now, but it might be easier to scrape it together and set it aside at this point in my life, so I guess I should work on that.

:/ And that's that.

Finally changed the burnt lightbulb in the living room. MY GOD. IT'S SO BRIGHT IN HERE. DUDE.
I'm a lameass for letting it go for two weeks, but in my defence, none of the nearby stores sell any of the energy-saving ones and I haven't been able to get to Superstore to get more.
(I decided to hell with it, and put regulars in. Oy. Well, I'll fix't later.)

Working on another short fic. Whooo, look at me go. Now if only I was this inspired when it comes to writing papers.
There is poetry involved. Again. And more poppies, but not in the same sort of way.
(Only four lines, but I've re-written those four lines at least six times and they are NOT coming out, argh! And there are a few other four-line verses that go with it, but they're awful and I might reduce them or cut them out completely. We'll see.)

I don't want to do the supperdishes. :/

[edit]
Lol. My brother's girlfriend wants to add me on Facebook. Hell to the NO. xD

Argh, I hate it when I get a song stuck in my head and I CAN'T PRONOUNCE THE WORDS.
Stupid European languages. *kicks*
