talkingsoupWe did it! Julie and I have caught up with Heroes! Holy crap this show is amazing! The characters are so well done, the story is so well written--it's seriously the best show on television. It's like Lost back before it started sucking. Except that unlike Lost, you actually end up liking the "bad guys!" Woot! Next episode is tomorrow--can't wait! Now we have something to preoccupy our Mondays other than Writer's Workshop.
It's been a so-so kind of week. I've been trying to do my Soc of Religion paper--pretty much, I have to research a certain religion. Well, I chose Pentecostalism, and I left a message at the nearby Pentecostal church, just asking for times when their services are--but they didn't even call me back. I have another big paper for my Social Movements class--I'm doing the Iranian Revolution and I have a bunch of stuff to read. Also have a Soc of Religion test due next Friday, the same day as my Grammar and Usage midterm. And I didn't really get anything done today because I was too busy watching Heroes, lol.
Went to the opera on Friday. Yes, you read that right. Dillingham was putting on an opera called Acis and Galatea--it was in English and it was very awesome, since one of the characters looked pretty much like Edward Scissorhands. Fuck yes. The music was good, but I can tell why people prefer operas in other languages--it's a lot of repeating the same thing over and over. Nice music, but it gets repetitive. Hung out with Pat afterwards and that was fun. He also drove us into town on Saturday, which was nice. I found the next volume of Monster in the comic book store--woot! Probably the best volume ever and it ends in such a bad place!
We were also supposed to go see Casino Royale on Saturday as well, but we ordered Chinese that night and it didn't arrive until an hour and a half later. Same deal as what happened when we tried to see The Departed. Goddamnit. I felt bad because Pat was going to go too. In any case, we didn't get to see Casino Royale and instead started watching the third season of Buffy the Vampire Slayer. I love that show, it's such good cheese.
I also handed off Pentagram to Pat for him to critique. I'm kind of nervous. The last time I sent something off to a First Reader, she was my cousin and it was a few years ago, so it was pretty much safe. But, I dunno. Lol, Pat, just don't rip it to shreds, okay? ^.^;
Handing off Pentagram has in fact gotten me back into the rewrite. It's good to return to the old stuff, put everything else aside. I'm going to work on the rewrite for awhile before I get back into Mot or North.

toukenjen has turned her story, The Askari, into a webcomic. And you should all go read it!!!! It's here.
Spring break is next week. Julie and I are going to stay with the family in New York City. Should be hella fun!

So yeah, this one I'm gonna do in Campus Center. Though the Monday after break I'll come up with you, promise ^.^ And in any case, you're free to join us in CC.
Though we should totally find time to hang out sometime this week, since it's our last chance before break.
Oh, and thank you so much for the critiques. I'm still going through and making the changes and I'll be sending you a reply e-mail really soon (I've been asleep or doing HW the whole day...ugh).
Sorry again about not being able to join you tonight. :(

OK. I probably won't join you in CC just because I've already said that I'm going to Jesse's for Heroes tonight, but maybe on a future occasion if the CC environment is agreeable.
That would be nice, but I'm not sure when exactly. I believe I'm playing D&D this Friday and we usually don't have any other time to hang out during the week. Except ASIC, of course.
My pleasure.
That's fine. :)
