XOMG My Last Full Day in Ithaca!!

Finals are officially over. Women and Writing portfolio is turned in, the powerpoint has been presented, the grammar test is done, and everything else is complete. All that's left is packing, and most of that is done as well. The storage people came on Wednesday--I had three boxes for storage, and ended up shipping four boxes home. I won't say how much it cost, but it was a lot D:

Ithaca is so pretty! All the flowers are blooming!

Sophia is gone, and we didn't make it all the way through Kodocha. We left off in a really bad place, actually, lol. But she took it home for the summer and will hopefully watch it then.

I'm in the process of applying for a job at Borders, and I've got a list of other places to apply at as soon as I get back. I need a job, one that will last all summer, not go for three days.

Though, ugh, working at a bookstore the summer the last Harry Potter book comes out...hm...as long as the children don't eat me alive...

Julie and I got through all of Mushishi and it is officially one of my favorite shows of all time. It's utterly brilliant. So peaceful and awesome and pretty and I love Ginko, the main character. One-eyed fish.

I made a bunch of icons, too. Nothing really special, but it gives a sense of how pretty this show is.






Gank if you want, but plz credit.

The most recent Naruto episode was awesome, too. Yay, doppleganger fights!

Speaking of Naruto, the third movie is out for downloading, though I haven't watched it yet.

And speaking of Naruto movies, anyone hear about this new Naruto Shippuuden movie coming out soon? The one where Naruto fucking dies???

For trailer where Naruto fucking dies, what the fuck?! click here.

Seriously. W.T.F.

And no, saying that Naruto DIES is not a spoiler, because it's in the fucking trailer.

I leave tomorrow morning for Chicago with Molly and Kate. We're gonna hang out there for a week and then I'm leaving next Wednesday (or Thursday?) and flying home. The day after, I'm going up to Mono Lake with the 'rents. Woot!

How am I gonna tell them I'm bi? O_O

I'm back to writing! I wrote an utterly excruciating scene between E and Kail not long ago, where all is revealed--I might have mentioned it earlier. Then finals week happened and I couldn't write, but then last night I finished my portfolio and just spent an hour writing. Yay! And once again, all these ideas are blossoming in my head for the Ramsey universe and for North's universe. Mushishi has a way of making ideas blossom, no joke. Watch it!

*sigh* Well, farewell, Ithaca. I shall see you next fall. And I'll be living in an apartment then. Woot!!

There's a breeze through my window and the lake is all smoky-looking. I love it here.

Ithaca is very pretty right now. I wish it were always like this.

Yeah, I saw that trailer. Obviously, he doesn't actually die. It probably happens in a dream or something. But hopefully it won't suck like the other movies.

Don't sweat the whole coming out thing. Just tell them when it feels right and you feel ready.

I leave tomorrow too. I would leave today but I've got things that need to get done and I won't have time to pack. I might stop by your room some time today to wish you and Julie a good summer. I might also give you my ripped DVDs of Spaced since I no longer have any use for them and I think you'd really like it.

It's marketing. People will go see the movie now that they think Naruto will die. And the 2nd movie was the best movie, but it still wasn't that good in my opinion.

I got home just fine.

And I just saw Heroes as well. My god. Have they ever killed that many characters in one episode? Jeez... But Hiro being trained by Sulu... Quite awesome.
