One down...

One final down. And it was annoyingly long. Of course the essays we got were the two long irritating ones: "Is democracy possible?" which required referrences to three authors we read and "What does it mean to 'make difficulties' in reference to political science using one author we read, and how did another author make difficulties for you?"

I never want to see Thoreau, Foucoult, de Toqueville, or Weber again. EVER.

Socrates is fine. He can come back. He amuses me.

I've only got two left. I'm not counting Animal Science because that looks to be a BS final assignment I'll be finishing tonight. A paper and two exams left.

Gah...

On the upside, the SEB's Acoustic Battle of the Bands is tomorrow. It'll be cool. I love acoustic music. :)

On the downside, the paper is 6-8 pages and I haven't started. I've also got my Cell Phys exam. It makes me want to cry.

Bluebird of Happiness!

Nope. Definitely not. I just envision it having a Charlie the Unicorn voice:

"Do I look like the frickin' bluebird of happiness!"

When shinobi appear on campus

I kid you not, I saw someone that looked just like Ebisu from Naruto, in civies. It was kinda surreal. He was in a blue beanie, folded up, and had sunglasses on.

I wish my camera on my phone was working, I'd have gotten a picture.

[sigh] Oh well... I'll probably see him again...

Welcome back to winter, Pullman.

Yes, indeed, it is now officially winter again! I just got home from work and class and got to enjoy the first daytime snow of the season! If it snows tonight, it will probably stick to the grass at least. :)

I know I will be regretting saying this later, but it was very pretty.

I Want Minions...

more animals

Seriously, I want minions to call upon.

Although my roommate and I have realized that I am a god and she will take over the world. Which makes perfect sense, because every budding world dominator needs to have a god on their side.

Alright, since I can't graduate to godhood yet, I'm going to play the Sims some more and manipulate peoples' lives. And decorate very stylishly. :D

Belated NaNoWriMo Celebration!

Its done!

Ok, so... its not really. But it's over 50,000 words! So I'm taking a break for a few days before I go work on it some more and finish it up. I really like the story line. I just need to go back and edit and revamp characters because they evolved while I wrote.

I'll also be adding more stuff in.

But! I plan on getting a copy of it printed and bound once I'm satisfied.

Who knows, maybe you'll see a book by A J Smith coming out soon...

Here's the cover art I made for it because I'm cool, have photoshop, and was bored. :D


Any guesses where it's set? Cough-PikePlaceMarket-Cough.

Silly Minnisotans...

My little sister is currently filling out a questionnaire for her application to Nordstroms and one of the questions says, and I kid you not: "Do you use drugs illegally? Note: If you are applying in Minnesota please skip to the next question."

The hell do Minnesotan's get to skip that question?! It sounds pretty important to me! Are they all druggies?

Hope everyone had a happy Turkey Day and didn't let the crazy PETA people yelling about turkey slaughter get you down!
