Look at me, I'm still alive. Not that I have anything particularly interesting to say which is my main problem it would seem when it comes to posting to this. I keep thinking I should do better, but I can't seem to actually manage it. *sighs*

Work is still work. Sometimes way too busy, sometimes way too slow. I don't have a whole lot of actual working days left this year. Next week I have 4 days of course (LARPing, in a manner) and then in December I have a scary ass guerilla course coming up. From 9:00-21:00. Hold me.

After that? Vacation for the rest of the week. Tickets to North Carolina are booked to visit my sister. Tickets for a five day minute trip to Boulder are booked as well. I just need to get off my ass and find a hotel. Oops?

Fandom High is eating my brain a bit more again recently. I have two active students at the moment who are both fun and easy to play. Well okay, so Faramir gets all wordy and needs some thought but for a Tolkien character he comes a lot more easily to me than I had ever dared to dream. Yes yes, I'm playing a Tolkien character. I still think he isn't an awesome writer but somewhere there in RotK he won me over. I'm now reading my way through The Silmarillion and it's a whole lot of fun to see how everything came to be.

I actually have been writing fic when I went through my Inception craze. They're three long fics and need to get betaed, but oh boy. How does this all go again?

And other than that? Games. I have been moving from one game to the other lately. Dragon Age: Origins, Starcraft II, Mass Effect, Mass Effect II and now I have The Witcher in my possession. I'm trying to hold off on starting that, though, and restarted a DA:O campaign because I am weak and got the Ultimate Edition. To my surprise, Leliana's Song is more interesting than the Morrigan DLC.

And now I'll stop boring you all. Really, isn't it much better if I remain uninteresting and shut up? If not, I have been more active on twitter (SheGoesOn) and tumblr (in case you don't mind getting spammed with LotR, FMA, Richard Armitage and pretty places).

Just to prove that I didn't really fall off the face of the earth.

( See? I'm posting! )

So last week there was a whole lot confusion with me requesting my public transport tickets from the new workplace. We finally got things settled and this morning I get a letter in the mail with the document to take to the train station. Yay? Nay. Apparently my first name is Eveline... Seriously? *headdesks* I'm so frigging lucky I still have the other stuff from going to the course so I should be able to get to Brussels for free, it's just really stupid.

I've swamped myself with RP this last week which has been awesome. I'm starting to get back into my Cam groove a bit, even if it's making me feel like an ass. I'm sorry boy! Only not sorry enough. Then we have Aly and Roy going sailing and getting stuck on an island (of course). Which has filled me with glee. I love the balance between those two even if they make me flail a whole lot. And Zuko and Mel flailed at each other over the random soundtracks and sometimes I don't want to completely strangle him.

Tomorrow I'm meeting suzvoy. I will not flail. *coughs*

I'm also learning some C# as I finally got the courses sent to me yesterday. Why is it capital sensitive? Its mark up reminds me of Javascript which makes me want to headdesk. I'm going to miss VB.NET.

I should go wash. Roy Mustang is awesomeness.

PS: I WANT SCANLATION NOW!!!!!!

I'm falling off the face of the Earth a lot these days. Things are crazy busy. The course is moving along, but I'm having trouble finding a place for my internship. *sighs* Not that I can blame companies as you know, I have nothing of previous experience in ICT.

Despite the long weekend, this week just dragged on forever. We've had SQL for three days and I think I might hate it. But Fandom High has been keeping me sane. Well that and spamming people with emails during the day and whining about wanting to go home. *gives anomilygrace a cookie for putting up with the spam.

And then when I get home I can play with Roy Mustang who is the new Sheriff in town and omg, I adore playing him. He's awesome and he's in my head and I love him to pieces. And then there's no bouncing going on beside that. Really. *flails*

Cameron is graduating this weekend which will make me woesome, but then not as I have plottiness ahead.

( ZOMG Veronica Mars, spoilers )

There should be a flaily mood.

So I think I have a new OTP.

Their love is so for hire.

Moral question: Is it deceiving to straighten your hair for a job interview and show up to the actual work with curly hair?

Fandom High is buzzing with life as the new students for the Spring Semester showed up. I still need to throw Cam out to meet them as I've been rather busy breaking Zuko's brain. Sokka and Katara showed up and Katara managed to break a record and got detention in her very first interaction. Zuko is proud of being the cause of it. Also, he's rooming with Melaka Fray and the two hate each other. They ended up 'sparring' and it wasn't all too nice. It's lots of fun!

In non Fandom High news there... Actually, I'm not sure if there's anything to say. Oh wait, yes. I now own volumes 1,2,4 and 6 of FMA. 3 and 5 should arrive somewhere next week. Hopefully on Monday. And yes, that is next week as the week starts on Monday. Freaky forgeiners. I recommend that everyone read anomilygrace's report on her visit to Brussels even if some of her points are not as accurate!

I'm in a weird mood that I don't care to analyse just now, so I'll just pretend it's due to nervousness about the possible temp job. Possibly you say? I thought you had the job for sure. Yeah, so did I. Until the girl from the temp agency called again and said I would have to go do an interview first (this was after she called me to say I had to go in for training, but apparently she misunderstood and it's for an interview). Whatever.

( Here have a poll or two. I was bored and in denial. )

I actually feel like I slept today. Went to bed an hour early and lay awake for a while, but I managed to sleep in which did me good. I was up early yesterday to do radio with anomilygrace. It was a whole lot of fun to do, but I'm glad I don't have to do this every week. *is in awe of radio people* It also helped distract me from the dream where I had chest hair. Pretty coarse chest hair too and strangely enough not curled. Dude, was I glad that was a dream because it would have been hell to wax.

( Rambling, feel free to skip )

Fandom High applications are open. Run, do not walk!

*bounces*

ETA: You are all smartasses.

I have a RP related question that I would like some advice on. It's in relation of setting up a plot that would really have a HUGE impact on your character. Let's just say that I want to do something really bad with one of my characters, but I'm scared of the consequences being too heavy to handle. So if you're on my flist and you wouldn't mind giving some advice (especially if you have RPing experience), let me know here and I'll put you in the filter for when I finally make that post.

If anyone's interested Fandom High applications will be closing tonight so hurry up and apply while you still can. (Randomly, townie applications will be opening very soon but it's a different sort of gameplay.)

I pretty much made up my mind to wait until Fall before bringing in a new student character, but I don't know if I'll have the patience. I have a character in mind to apply, but I'm not ready to do it as I haven't been able to play KotOR again and don't have any faith in my Revan voice. Which means that I've been milling over possible characters I could apply with and the one I know I can pull off might actually be a good idea for a teacher in Fall. *headdesks*

Maybe it's for the best because FH sucks up enough of my time already and I'd feel guilty not giving Cameron or the new character enough of my attention. Then again, I'm in the mood for something new or a break or whatever.

However, I am bored right now and procrastinating so why don't you guys tell me what character you think I should be able to play or think I should app and I'll let you know why not.
