toothy woes, Gojira roars

Been having issues with a trio of bad teeth since spring break's end. blew up the right side of my face like a chipmunks cheek food storage pouch. Ended up having to have them removed.. so now having to deal with that and several stitches. thankfully my teacher is understanding. I got reassured and my absences were excused. I'll have to hop-to on my homework though if i care to catch up. edit: now, why is it that that huge load of tutorials i have for reference, will not answer my questions!!?
I dropped my govt class. was causing the worst stress! Still have a history class to make it through.. already have several test fails to somehow make up for. think i can do it though.
edit: oh yeah, I gots a certif of academic achievement in the mail the other day, seems last semester won me a dean's paper of honor. lol! i tacked it onto the cork wall board and giggled over it for a time. betcha my adviser would be steamed if she saw that.

Been biding my heal time watching old Godzilla movies. (gojira is short for gorilla and whale. hence why he kind of looks a bit like an ape, and is often first seen in the water, which he breathes, right?) I love these old films! I wonder if anyone has ever done a picture and data list of all the monsters Godzilla has come against.) edit: there is! try the -link- here!

favs thus far.. Tokyo s.o.s., Final war, and am laughing it up with Godzilla's revenge.

A little bird has flown the nest and I already miss the ticcing of keys at the table next to me. :(

and, since I am on the woes portion of this post... losing another friend this evening. one I have known for many years too. At first I thought to befriend him, then to defend him, then when it became tested, i thought to advise him... he ignored me, and thought to push around me to others I care about. It's finally enough. I'm done. There is still politeness to be had, graceful steps to be taken. But enough is enough,.. after all this time. There really is nothing more i want to do.

Oh and Mabinogi?.. Fix your graphic card issues! Many of the PC laptop OS's running windows 8 cannot play the game at all! and Don't give me the whole "roll back yer own card drivers" claptrap. it doesn't work. we'd have to roll them back beyond the working ability of several programs already on edge of non-running status for win8 just to get the game to work. so, update your own driver requirements! My laptop can see far better graphics then mabi has just fine, no complaints, no issues. so why You giving me grief huh?

mehs, blehks and a cool pic

Hey there. school isn't going to hot but well... there ya are... hope i make it to another semester without having to pay through the nose for my class failures... some grant.. ever hear of a gift you have to pay back? still sounds like a stinky loan to me. Classes are all right.. i guess.. dismayed with my history and government classes though. gov teacher speaks legalese on his tests... can't understand much at all of what he's trying to ask. history isn't fairing much better, even though she seems nice enough.. maybe its the online-ness of it all. 3d class is kinda fun.. even if it is just trying to learn an expensive huge program that I don't have a chance in hey of affording. Guess that's the way of it though.

Sobbing real tears for the spent spring break.. i have only just started relaxing! Why couldn't it be just a tiny bit longer?!

Been in the worlds of mabinogi a fair bit this semester.. and in dragon nest. don't seen to have enough time for eq2... heard they have changed company hands... sure hope its someone who cares a bit about the game.. enough to keep it alive with actual updates.... instead of sitting on it until it truly dies. (shades of creatures 3 and docking station... poor thing.. such a good game too)

dragon nest has changed a lot since i last was there.. added 3 new classes, changed the crafting system .. added fishing and cooking O.O some terribly confusing things in that. crafting is confusing.. i know they tried to make it simpler.. and I applaud them in the effort. just.. uh... the spark thing, i'm lost. picked up a plate the other day, and it required a diamond splinter.. I mean fragment.. only they don't drop those anymore. hrm.. still kinda funny to be sent in-game mail from npc's. Who else does that? Love their sense of humor. hehe





Lancea - dragon nest


edit - update

well, as my luck goes, I do have the day off. fault being, a tooth decided on a quick abscess
into my cheek, last night, and the earliest i could be seen by a DDS is tomorrow. so here I sit hopped up on drugs (Aleve, I love you!) and feeling like i have a balloon plastered to the right side of my face. Went to the store and could feeeel the stares so.. no, not going anywhere but the dentist tomorrow, and hoping for antibiotics.

I miss ceramics class. people might seem real.. but its really only temporary. unless you somehow manage to retain an actual friend. Still, some of the teachers have amazingly real personalities. Ms Green was the best. lol! visiting another classroom just for hugs and giggles. Embarrassing yet surprisingly fun. ^.^ I won't soon forget her. I really like my 3d class as well... love the nifty program... feels like a lot of work though. ..and so expensive.. don't know when I'd have the chance outside of the class, to use these new skills anyway.

too loopy for dragon nest this evening. most of the rest of the household has gone a little manic with that world. Lol! guess it was time.. or something. I've only been talking about it for... some while now.
amazingly splashy kill-em-good skills and a bit of fast action.. where you can't even see what you are attacking at times. just keep swinging and hope one of those hotskills hits the intended big bad guy.

re-greets and anime hi-jinx!

hi there. its me again! ^.^ thats right, I'm back.. at least for the semester..on a new laptop! (one with keys and a spacebar that doesntlike to work all too well. -.-; I'll try to correct but please bear with the meshed-up words. school has been going along.. with few bumps.. at least up to thisone.. dern, Govt is such an horrid subject! I'd almost rather take a math class! ..bet you never thought you'd hear me saythat one! and it worse then usual because its an unnecessarily tough online one. Anyway, atleast I still managed one sweet art-related class! ... even if it was against the advice of the adviser who chewed me out for about 30 mins about this one class before realizing i had others listed online. mehhwell, after a couple of snow days and iffy weather, its finally spring break! a whole week of... catching up. -.- and a few animes and some game catch-up as well! so hangonto yer sweaters,coats and warmwear, cuz its that long awaited anime review time!


First up is ..

Kaichou wa Maid-sama!


Funny storyline even if the irate vs deadpan personalities get a little old after a bit. still, it gave me a couple of chuckles.

Its about an serious student president who takes things waaay too seriously in keeping her fellow students in line. and this very calm and determined cute guy who only seems to have eyes and heart for her.


Pom Poko


Rather humorous film..even if the toilet humor got old quick toward the end. I really enjoyed the spooky parade.

A local tribe of racoons encounter trouble when a development company moves into their habitat area. Endeavoring to do something to stop it, they take to mischievous transformations.
