Voluntary Madness

the universe has conspired and is plotting in my favour. Buahahaha, fear me, puny mortals. Of course, that means that I need to save a small country from destruction later on in life, to balance the karmic scales, but that's cool. I can work with that. Saving, taking over, it's all the same for some small countries.

I have passed the physics exam, apparently with an A (beats me how, I was only able to answer with the general idea. Maybe they were impressed with my cleavage) and it was implied I was pretty much accepted for a BS physics course. Snicker. This is due to many factors, not the least of which being the lack of people interested, but still. Me and physics. Snicker².

In other news, I have finally realised my life-long dream of making Spider Pig my ring tone. Now if I could only find a D'OH .mp3 for the text messages, I'd be set. :) New phone FTW! Needs some touchups, namely a .pdf reader, but is overall shiny shiny nice. ^_____^

You would think that in a country where snow is a yearly occurrence, and seeing frosty lawns in April raises an eyebrow, at most, the public railway would figure out how to make their trains not run an hour late. Just saying. Also, what's up with the twenty-minute wait two hundred meters from the station? Seriously?

Sigh. I'm supposed to be writing two essays right now, so of course I dove straight into SPN RPS. Because the season four gag reel with Sam&Dean making out as welcome back from hell scene? People would storm the stores to own those DVDs.

Also, there need to be more Supernatural/High School Musical crossovers. YA SRSLY. Because Sharpay chopping off a head of Edward Cullen with a machete is an image awesome enough, but Dean doing Twinkle Town? That is chocolate covered in genuine golden dust and rolled in coffee-and-liquor-cream.

18,002 / 50,000 - 36% done!

So obviously NaNo is doing well, if I'm still a touch behind. I've ran into a slight timeline complication, which shouldn't be too hard to resolve, I'm hoping. What's a few months here and there?

I returned from Prague, which on Saturday was pretty, but mostly wet. We visited Hradcany and the castle, though missed seeing the Golden Lane, for reasons I can't quite recall. We might have been hungry and fed up with the rain. XD

Sunday was gorgeous though, sun and blue sky and all around joy. We went to Josefov, which is the Jewish part of Prague, which made me very happy we didn't go on Saturday because frankly, visiting the Pinkas synagogue was just a little less depressing than Auschwitz. Almost 80,000 names of Jews murdered during the Second World War written on the walls and a gallery of pictures painted by children in Terezin. Way to sucker-punch a person.

The old cemetery was beautiful though.

The moving didn't exactly go as planned. In fact, it didn't go at all. The flat wasn't ready yet, so I ended up staying at home for two more days. This might coincide with my studies, just a tad, but I figure I can manage without those two days, especially since there's nothing on Friday anyway. That's something, at least.

On the plus side, I got UFO-green bedding, with swirlies.

We shall see if I manage to wing it. I probably will, because hey, at worst I'm looking at two lectures and a seminar. At worst. And maybe an organisational meeting.

In other news, I started reading an RPS fic, here. It's J2. I am boggled, really, as to why, but it is adorkable. ^_____^

Speaking of SPN, cliathain wrote a Supernatural/Saiyuki crossover, which is all kinds of shiny. Go here and tell her it needs continuation. XD

Yay, now it's over and done with! ^_____^ So happy to be back home.

The last two weeks were interesting. One of my kids had twisted her neck, which turned out to be not as serious as it initially looked. She'll have headaches for a while, and she has to wear a not-so-pretty collar, but she'll be perfectly fine. I got an ambulance ride out of it, with the siren. And a pretty cool drive through a wood on the back ladder of a jeep. If I wasn't scared out of my mind, it would have been pretty cool. <3

In other news, I had to go into the cave again, the one I got stuck in the first time. This time I managed no problem, but it was pretty nerve-wrecking, with my claustrophobia. My knees are a little bruised, but otherwise okay. Also, when it comes to schizes, I was asked on Thursday to go with one other counsellor into the forest around 9 pm and get to a cave some three miles away, in which I have been once before, with a huge group. And about halfway in our only flashlight died. We were left with only with mobile phones and a camera to light our way. Later it turned out we found the cave no problem, except because we had no flashlights we didn't know it. So we sat down, a little further, and waited with our hearts in our throats, until we were rescued. XD

It's been a fun four weeks, altogether, though I missed you guys terribly. <3
