Mmmm, yeah - I can understand that. I broke down and got an iPhone 4S last summer before I left for school, and it takes pretty decent photos. My camera takes better photos than my phone, but in a pinch, my camera takes decent ones. :)

True, but I've come so close to quitting many times. :/ Plus I don't even know what I'll be doing with the degree when I do get it. D:

I just don't want to pay for a massive data plan. I want a smartphone that I can just use wireless on when I have it.

It's the end that counts no matter how tiresome the journey, I say. I'm sure you'll find something. Might have to move to a big city to do it, but translators of all types are needed.

Yeah, it is a bother - but it's better than a phone that keeps dying on your as my old phone used to. [yes] It is nice at school because I'm on wireless a lot. [yes] So that helps.


Thing is I am not going for teaching or translating. [yes] Never those two. Not really for me.

Oh for sure. I adore brick phones because they have humongous battery lives. My current phone has a standby battery life of seven days or more. If I'm using it it still lasts for at least three without needed a single charge. I have an iTouch that I sometimes carry around to access wireless, etc.

Hmmm, then I dunno. Do you have anything you're leaning towards career wise? If you don't that's fine, I'm just askin'.

True, they do have good battery lives. And O.o Woah, that's crazy! [yes]

Nope, I don't really. I used to think interpreter. But honestly that isn't for me. The program is CRAZY hard and competitive to get into and you aren't even guaranteed to get in. D:

It is crazy. I couldn't believe the battery life on that thing when I first got it. The reviews said it was good but I thought they lied a tad. [lol]

*nods* I know how that goes. I think that good careers are far too difficult to get into.

AT least it lived up to the reviews that it said that it would have! [yes]

They are, but I really can't see myself being an interpreter. xD So yeah. Who knows. xD

I'm sure you can find work for that somewhere. And if you don't want to do that you'll find something else. ^.^

Anyway, how was your day?

Yeah - I'll find something, eventually.

My day has been pretty good. I've been procrastinating on doing homework, and stuff, but it's not too much I have left to do, so thankfully it shouldn't take me too long. :) How has your day been?

It's been fine. I've been somewhat procrastinating, but I had my work for this semester done a few weeks ago soooo, I dunno. I'm just editing my paper. Deciding if I want to change anything. Stuff like that.

I wish I had all of what I needed for the semester done, I still have a 5 page paper due Friday, and then a 8 page paper due the Friday after that. As well as making sure I have all my journals for my Women Studies class completed and all the books read (by a week from tomorrow). I think that's all I have left to do - after the project that I have to finish that if I focus on, I should have it done in an hour. :)

When's your paper due? :)

I have a 20 or so page report due tomorrow, then Thursday is a 20 page or so story. Next Monday is a take home test. However, I've done most of the work ahead of time.

Oh, those are long papers, and stories. At least you've gotten most of the work done ahead of time. :]

Yeah, I had to get it done because of deadlines, so now I'm kinda sitting around wondering what to do with myself.

I don't really mind long papers. Writing is my thing.

Haha, yeah! The good feeling of not being too stressed, but the feeling of "mmmm, ok, what now?"

Yeah, and I'm a tad worried that my one paper is not as good as I think it is. I'm just double and triple checking it to make sure.

[hug] Hopefully it's fine. I always am the same way with papers, freaking out that it's not as good as it should be. [yes]
That's nice that you have time to check and double and triple check. :)

I'm kinda at the point of not giving anymore darns about it. I mean, I obviously want to do well, but I don't really want to mess with it anymore.

I totally know how that is!! [yes] You care, but at the same time, you don't. [yes] I'm sure that you did fine. :)

*nods* I've got quite a bit of extra credit in that class, so even if I flub some I hope that that will cushion it.

Now I'm just waiting for Game of Thrones to come out.

Nice! Hopefully that'll help some! I wish that my classes offered extra credit!

I may be slow with responses, as I'm starting to try to get myself to work on this project that I want to have done tonight. :)

This is the most extra credit I've ever been offered for one course. I used to never do it, but now I do it all whether or not I feel like it or need to.

That's fine. :)

You never know when it'll come in handy - having extra credit. Gives you a little bit of a buffer just in case something goes wrong or whatnot with things. [yes]

Well, I thought I Was going to finish putting it all together - and then I got distracted by food. [lol]

Lol. Food is the best distraction.

It is freakishly quiet in my room and it's creeping me out.

It really is! I broke down and ordered chinese take out for dinner tonight. So good! [drool] Our cafeteria has alright food, but there is something about having something that you can't get there at the cafeteria. [yes] Plus getting to eat at home. xD HAH!

I hate it when it's freakishly quiet. That's when I turn on music or something for background noise.
