This is sammy a couple of weeks before we got him, so he'd be what...6 weeks old i think?

ANd this is a few weeks ago, conveniently sat on top of a sleeping friend xD

CloudDreamer 11-24-2014 02:45 AM

Haha, gotta get as high up as he can, given how small he is! :P

And he has grown, he is still small but so cute! [yes]

Lavinia 11-24-2014 02:49 AM

Haha he still looks like a gremlin though :P

BUt yeah he's a cutie, just so hyper i don't have the energy to run around with him for long D=

CloudDreamer 11-24-2014 02:50 AM

He does, a little bit, yeah.

Oh, I can just see him running circles around you. Being his crazy hyper self.

Lavinia 11-24-2014 02:58 AM

Hah oh yes he does that. When he gets crazy hyper he runs around the house so fast i can't even focus on him xD

Being a dark colored dog makes it harder at night xD

CloudDreamer 11-24-2014 02:59 AM

Sounds hard to keep up! It'd probably make me dizzy! [lol]

salvete 11-24-2014 03:26 AM

Aww such cute puppy / dog photos ^_^

Kat Dakuu 11-24-2014 04:35 AM

I see a cute dog on top of the page! Cute!

Just got back from dinner. Now a shower and off to writing!

salvete 11-24-2014 04:42 AM

He is so precious. ^_^ [heart]

Lavinia 11-24-2014 05:34 AM

Heh thanks guys, i was just playing with him then, hopefully i tired him out cause i'm knackered!

Time for me to write too, but no immediate rush as my rp partners just went to sleep :(

Kat Dakuu 11-24-2014 05:36 AM

Did you manage to get some good writing in before they went to sleep?

CloudDreamer 11-24-2014 05:37 AM

Hopefully it tired him out! [yes]

Lavi: You'd be proud of me! I'm starting my essay... a few hours late... I ended up going to dinner and running into one of Naomi's roommates, who I also know, and I sat with her and got distracted and then things happened... anyways.... yeah - this won't be as hard as I think it would be... with luck, maybe I can actually get it totally done tonight before I go to bed, so I can sleep in tomorrow!

Kat Dakuu 11-24-2014 05:56 AM

btw, have ya'll seen Poppet's thread here? If you're a roleplayer and you haven't added yourself to the listing, you should.

Lavinia 11-24-2014 06:04 AM

Thats a good idea! I may fill one in another time, once the RP i'm always busy on dies down a bit. I've been unreliable in the past so i'll only do one if i know i'll give it my full attention xD

Kat Dakuu 11-24-2014 06:06 AM

Even if you're not looking now, it's good to fill out a form before you forget it. Well I'm just a fan of Poppet's threads so I want to advertise for her. >.>

CloudDreamer 11-24-2014 06:09 AM

Omg, this paper is taking awhile to set up - if y'all saw all of the points that I'm writing down before editing it all together... it's crazy how many different points I am noticing and wanting to get into it. I should be able to at least hit the 3 page minimum for this section!
On another note... I'M SO FREAKING CLOSE TO JUST GETTING UP AND TURNING ON THE AC... despite their issues with having it on as it's too hot in my room... -.-

Kat Dakuu 11-24-2014 06:12 AM

Why can't you turn on the AC? And I'm so glad I don't have to write papers. I could never find enough points to talk about and I fail at elaborating.

Lavinia 11-24-2014 06:20 AM

Maybe get a fan hun or open the window? Just so it's only your room keeping cool :)

Glad you are doing your paper at last! Sorry it's taking a while

Totally missed this sorry Kat!

Yeah i posted a couple of times before they went to bed, only about 700 words worth like but hey, it's words!

I have a few posts to add now, as well as some non-replyable ones, if that's a word xD

CloudDreamer 11-24-2014 06:23 AM

Kat: My roommates are epic witches (well not really.... replace the w with a B, in all caps) and told me that it's too cold and I'm not allowed to turn it on... -.- I really don't want to write this paper, but because I need the points to pass the class. I'm forcing myself to do it - it's due tomorrow at 3:45 pm, and it's 10:49 pm now. Heh.

Lavi: I could try the fan mode on the AC... and the window is already open. It's just hot. :(
This is what I have so far - most of it is just in my note mode - getting down points for what each section requires (still haven't finished writing them all down) and then I am going to connect them into paragraph form before going onto the poem. (there's two parts, this is part one)
Quote:

For my narrative, I chose “Deaf Ninja” by Austin Andrews. To me, I feel like the narrative type would have to be one of Personal Experience as he talks about things that happened to him, which he refers to as the “real world” (Andrew, 2007, 0:09), and then there is the ‘fake world’ where deaf people aren’t powerless and are able to defend themselves because they can find a way to fight the oppression that’s caused by living in a hearing world.

Plot Structure
Introduce characters, him and brother (Andrew, 2007, 0:20)
Brother react to teasing, take out hearing aids by wires and use them to hit (Andrew, 2007, 0:34-0:46)
Dream - Deaf Ninja (Andrew, 2007, 0:50)
Setting the scene, surrounded by
deaf ninja lands crouched in the middle of all the fallen men he just defeated (Andrew, 2007, 02:04-02:09).

Visual Vernacular
With the pulling out and hitting with the hearing aids (Andrew, 2007, 0:38)
Hitting of the guy he was fighting (Andrew, 2007, 1:56-2:00)

Lavinia 11-24-2014 06:29 AM

Deaf ninja sounds cool!

Glad you are getting it done though, as time consuming as that is D=

CloudDreamer 11-24-2014 06:32 AM

Yeah, it's pretty awesome! If you want to see the video - despite you not knowing ASL, it's pretty easy to understand the majority of the story even if you don't know sign. Just let me know and I can link you the video. :)

Yeah, I'm hoping to at least get this one all written up and the second part mapped out like I'm doing it here, before I head to bed tonight. So I can just get the second part written up, connecting all the pieces together, and then submitting it hopefully before it's due. :]

Kat Dakuu 11-24-2014 06:34 AM

Ah, that sucks Cloud.
Your paper sounds cool though. Hopefully you can blast it out and still have time to sleep before that deadline.

Lavi: All words are good words!

CloudDreamer 11-24-2014 06:36 AM

Kat: Yeah... I'm really starting to get sick of those two. :/
Yeah, and once I get this part done, time to move onto the second one, which I don't have help with... (a friend of mine sent me her paper she wrote for this class - I'm mainly using it to make sure I hit key points, getting the time stamps correct) and then wording it all my own. But the other one I picked she didn't do so I'm on my own for that one.

Lavinia 11-24-2014 06:51 AM

It's due tomorrow darling, get to it and stop looking for distractions! :P

CloudDreamer 11-24-2014 06:55 AM

I've got the majority of it mapped out - if I don't take a few breaks here and there, I'll go insane. It'll get done. :] With time to spare too. [yes]
