Random Silliness

Your Score: 50/50 - Who knows?

Chances of becoming someone's kittylitter: 45%

You scored kinda in the middle, and I have no idea what the cats plan to do with you. Sorry, but my cat/adviser fell asleep back on question four and I've been winging it ever since. You might become kitty litter, then again, you may be left to roam the back alleys, looking for small rodents to eat behind the trash cans. At least you'll be surprised, whatever happens.

My printer makes cool pics, yo

So I was feeling vaguely irritated and upset with my printer which was not printing properly however I carefully read all the online directions, reinstalled my printer driver (which helped not at all) and attempted to print. Well I'm glad I ignored my first urge to throw the damn thing out the window because now it is printing quite beautiful pics which is super neato. ^_~

In the last couple of days I read Grave Surprise and Grave something else by Charlaine Harris which I enjoyed a lot. The third one is coming out this month despite the pattern, it is not called Grave blank but rather 'An Ice Cold Grave'. Despite rumors to the contrary Harris says there very may well be a fourth book and maybe more. Originally there were only going to be three because the publisher wouldn't sign a new contract for more, it irritates me when publishers won't allow authors to write more books in a series despite the fact that the series is selling well / is well liked / or is making a come back (like with the Mercedes Lackey lesser known series, Jess you know what I'm talking about), but will continue to sign contracts with new authors to write yet another sex filled vampire story that goes on and on and on...*end rant* Oh and Jess do you remember when you were reading and you asked me if I thought it was weird that you wanted the Step sister and brother to get together? Well Harris assured her readers that in the third book sparks will fly ^_^ (and no, after reading the series I don't think it is strange, lol).

I also read "The Lovely Bones" which was sad but very well written and had an intriguing premise. I would def recommend the book Anshula ^_~ . I also just started 'Moon Called' by Patricia Briggs, which looks alright,  but I'm beginning to fall out of love with the whole urban supernatural thing. I still enjoy Jim Butcher who I believe writes very well in the genre, but all the new authors coming out with books, or the old authors who are coming out with books in the genre, get on my nerves. I know it's wrong, but I almost feel as if they are selling themselves out to make a cheap buck.

What else? I went and saw a hypnotist on Friday which was kind of cool...oh and I ate grapes with Jiwan my other roommate who is from Korea Friday too. Technically she is a freshman here but she already attended two years of school in Korea, so really she should be a junior.  After we talked she said that I was the first native speaker she had had an actual conversation with which really surprised me because she speaks English incredibly well.

Oh and Anshula, yes we are still doing book club, our first meeting is this week and we already have three people who are interested and who I def think are going to come to the mtgs. ^_^

 I do have a fair amount of homework but at the moment I'm managing pretty well. Latin takes up a large part of  my time so I have to be careful to space it out over two days otherwise it takes me all night just to get the one class done. The funny thing is that last year, it took me an incredibly long time to get sentences in my latin text book done, and then they were not always right. This year he gives us paragraphs to do and expects us to not only get them translated well, but also be able to pronounce them correctly in class, identify the parts of speech and translate on the spot without looking at our notes. And I can actually sort of do it! *knocks on wood* It's pretty cool, ^_~
