^_^ Thank you.

Oh damn... >.> That's never good to realize you don't have enough time as you thought... That always happens to me. Sadly.. lol

The sucky thing is that when I first checked the due date, it was September 10. Then, the other day, I checked again and it was suddenly August 19. Er... major stressout time, especially as I'm applying for a study abroad thing, and I need to get letters from a host country affiliate.

o.o That's not cool... Hate it when the dates are changed... T-T
Kind of off topic but my friend almost did her assignment on someone that wasn't on the list we were given... Luckily I pointed it out to her the day she started to research for it. That would have been a major disaster if I hadn't... o.o

Yes, that would! Though, often most teachers understand when small mistakes like that are made, especially if the research project is still a good one and the person makes sense. Like, if you're supposed to write about an English author, and you wind up writing about C.S. Lewis or something.

-nods- That is true, although I don't really know how it works in uni... Like if they take into consideration how well you write it, or if they don't... Hmm... I know you can ask for an extension but I don't know if they'll allow it for something like that.

Well, I did work for Target for 5 1/2 years, so I know how evil retail can be, xD; And delivering pizzas isn't hard work at all compared to that. The only thing I have to be worried about is getting robbed/shot on a delivery, ~_~;

@Orina: Extensions are tricky; I know I usually take into account how early you ask for one, and whether the reason makes any sense (i.e., my sister is in the hospital; our dorm was flooded by a backfiring toilet...)

@zaza: I never thought of delivering pizza as risky, but I suppose that's true. I always thought the biggest risk was someone answering the door naked. :XD

Yeah, that would make sense. -shrugs- oh well, at least she doesn't have to ask for one, or do it over again.
I should probably start it tonight... o.o It's due next Friday, but it's only 750 words, so nothing major... xD

@scholar
After my time on 4chan, that wouldn't phase me in the slightest bit. The only thing that freaks me out is knives. Honestly, a knife to the face freaks me out more than a gun to the face, and I have no idea why.

@Orina: 750 words -- piffles. :D *is a graduate student who's had to turn out an eight-page paper on a new topic EVERY WEEK* 750 words is, what, 3-5 pages? That shouldn't be too bad with a week and a half. What's the general topic? What schooling level?

@zaza: My best friend was held at knifepoint once, in broad daylight in Baltimore, by a massive guy on a bicycle who wanted what he thought was her purse (it was her lunch bag) and then her backpack (which had her med school notes in it). She stood her ground and refused to give him the backpack, and he backed down after a little while. She was pretty upset about it, understandably. I've never had a knife or a gun to my face, so I don't know how I'd respond.

o.o Yeah... The actual writing will only take about a day or so. Unless my writing skills fail me again...
Uhm, it's a source assignment. You choose an ancient writer like Socrates and do a bio on him and the reliability of his writings and how people have used his writings etc. And I'm a first year... so level 1... hehe

Sounds actually kind of fun! *is a total dork* Is this for a philosophy class or a writing class?

I know it does eh? xD It's for Roman History

Still... Still waiting on that magic, guys.

*sprinkles fairy dust*

Now you see the magic before you. Watch, as drops of rain penetrate through the windowed ceiling, and scatter into oblivion before reaching the ground.

HOT DAMN. Well, that just goes above and beyond, sir.

I live to serve. Anything else I can do for you?

Get me a job on The Culture Show?

Hello all ^-^

A job? That might be a little hard, actually.

Hi, peeps.

Erotic: Totally digging the name! ;)

How is everyone? I finally just got rid of an ex of mine who was hanging at my place for a few hours. When I invited him to pop by for a visit, I didn't mean stay so late until it's dark... jesus. Who else has those awkward moments where someone is over at your place and you want them to leave but just don't know how to tell them nicely? Ain't it a bitch?

Wow, our thread actually has visitors! Welcome, all!

*points to feet* I gots MAH PANDA SLIPPERS FINALLY!!! I'm just going to change my quest thread and then logoff; I spent all afternoon working on my grant application. I went and read some of the successful past ones, and they were rahhther skeery. Plus, I had to write two complicated emails in Japanese, which was 難しかった (muzukashikatta, difficult-past-tense).

Foxy... I won't be updating the SSHG tonight, I think. I'll definitely check in tomorrow night, but I'll probably be on/off for the next few days as I respond to my initial OMGWTFBBQ about this fellowship. Sowwy. :(

No worries, I completely understand. Take your time! Work before play... as they always say. ;) *ducks behind rock*

I see you there, hiding behind that rock! *throws water balloon at*

*is splashed* ARGH.
