Had a mini-Thanksgiving with just my mom, dad, and I. It was nice. ♥ Funeral tomorrow. Still need to work on school stuff, auugh.
anyway.
anyway.
Been unusually productive* since yesterday. I guess I'm trying to not think too hard about things.
Made a B in Computer Animation. Better than I'd hoped for. Web Page Design teacher left before I could turn in my stuff, left it on her desk. Will check on status Monday. Monday finish brochure for Typography, finished for semester. Need to work on copy and images before then if I want to finish in a timely manner. Can't wait for semester to be over.
Had a bear claw? yesterday. Gigantic doughnut-y thing with apple filling. It was nice. ♥
Back to... stuff, I guess. Maybe I'll play more Animal Parade...
*using a very broad definition of the word.

Completed my (mock) job interview!
Completed my animations (they are the simplest animations ever, BUT I CEASE TO CARE), just need to put them on CD!
Only three projects left in Typo, and one left in Web Page Design!
1/2 classes completed! Just! Two! More! I CAN DO THIS. *bashes face into wall*
After that, need to (finally...) complete
redcandle17's trade gift (s-sorry ;;;) and my thing for asoiaf_exchange. Then! I dunno what I do. fft. anyway.
Harvest Moon: Animal Parade is adorable and fun! Also, for the Wii. Go play it. Now. >:| *STARES*
Speaking of which, in a fit of "DEAR GOD THE SEMESTER'S ALMOST OVER", been drawing some Harvest Moon stuff, so idk here.
( doodles )
unrelated, p.s. read Hanna is Not a Boy's Name.

Hey, Pixar has a job open as a Story Artist. o3o *pines for the skills necessary for*
Working on my cover letter again. How do you address someone when you don't know who they are? I'm doing mine from the perspective of theoretically applying for this, but Pixar is all "APPLY ONLINE oh p.s. send a hard copy, too, but we won't say specifically to whom it's supposed to go ♥♥♥" =_= orz. anyway! Currently going with "Dear Sir or Madam", think that works?
also, must resist putting "(That's what she said.)" in cover letter.

Well, mom is back home (again) after surgery (again), this time on an extra bile duct (?) that was apparently leaking. o_o;; And she still refuses to sit still. =___=; orz
Less important but from a monetary standpoint, my ability to focus on schoolwork is still completely shot to hell. I wish this semester was over already, arrg.
Also think I twisted my knee a day or two ago or something. It kind of bugged me over the weekend, but I mostly played Animal Parade all weekend so didn't notice too much, then. -3- But today it's been bugging me and gets cranky when I try to put weight on it or straighten it and feels stiff when it is straightened. bah.
and I have that mock-interview for my job skills class tomorrow, and I have some homework for it I forgot about 'til today to finish before then... =_= YAY MORE STRESS. *stabs self in face*

Been playing Animal Parade since Friday. s'fun. ♥ Haven't started Sunshine Islands yet.
Dad had to mom to the emergency due to the pain she was experiencing. Hopefully it's nothing major, just her stressing the wound a little due or something (not that it would stop her roaming around and not resting constantly. >_>)
can't wait for this semester to be over. just feel kind of... burnt out on it.

So this is the second plastic mug my mom has jacked from the hospital in less than two weeks, fft. So mom is home and so far doing well! And would probably be doing even better if she didn't insist on getting up all the time. >_>
Meanwhile! Stores have finally started putting out the little bottles of eggnog and GameStop finally called about my games, so should finally get those tomorrow, yay. :D I don't want to go to school tomorrow, but I still have so many projects... =_=;;; (I am going to fail this semester in a ball of fire aren't I? I don't cope well with stress at all, orz)

mom is out of surgery and a-okay! \o/ She'll be home later - she's done two of the things they said she was supposed to do before coming home (drinking, bathroom), but she's too groggy for walking right now, so that'll probably wait until I'm in class. :x But yay, she's all right! :D
so there we go.
so there we go.
Good Idea: Finally starting to watch Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann.
Bad Idea: Watching it at night. Now I'm too pumped to sleep. :I however, back to good news, now want to kick reason to the curb and believe in the me who believes in me?
Meanwhile, someone on fogu's already gotten Animal Parade. D: But us GameStop pre-orderers probably won't get it until Friday. ;____; Next time I need to order from Amazon, apparently...
Tomorrow, tomorrow, important tomorrow... I think the hard thing in my breast might have gotten bigger...
anyway.

surgery tomorrow morning. here's for the best!
=_=;;; Amazing how game shipments can turn into such a giant clusterfuck. Animal Parade and possibly Sunshine Islands, I dunno? have kept getting delayed. Current estimates are tomorrow, or possibly the 17th, at least in regards to GameStop. Regretting putting $10 down on each, now. Seems like everyone else who pre-ordered from GameStop's going out for or at least considering refunds on their pre-orders and trying to order from Amazon, orz. (on fogu, anyway) oi.
*waits on parents to get home from appointment, considers replaying FE:PoR for approximately the millionth time* Or maybe I can actually do something productive? ffft. (actually, I'd like to work on stuff for school, but I don't have any of the programs I need or a computer that could run them anyway. arrg.)

oh extra wii remote box why must you thwart me so *pries at*
oh sweet it comes with batteries already. handy!
wow this is a pretty impressive squishycover it came with. I can smack myself in the head with the wiimote and it feels like a ~*~gentle caress~*~

fighting, fighting. shouting, shouting. (nausea, nausea.)
so, nooz.
Mother's heart declared okay! at least enough for surgery. She has an appointment with the surgeon tomorrow and is hoping to get the surgery over with Thursday morning. here's hoping for the best!
in unimportant news, hopefully will be getting Animal Parade and Sunshine Islands tomorrow. :I currently unsure of prospective sleeping ability tonight. fffffft gaaaaaaamesssss.
also, yesterday's poll still open. Long dreads for Cal currently winning. Ben's poll, meanwhile, of course, is in a tie, fffft.
current schoolwork status:
Computer Animation: gonna fail so baaaaaaad
Typography: may not fail if I haul ass
Web Page Design: ditto! also, site is absurdly pink. also:

I whipped out the full-size version of that in no time at all, yo. (off a reference, admittedly.) BEHOLD MY ADOBE ILLUSTRATOR PEN TOOL MIGHT. or something. anyway!

Mother is home now, has appointments for Monday, presumably surgery later in the week? But still not sure gall bladder is cause of pain. :|
Unrelated, remembered pebble-y little thing and poked at it, it's still there. Talked to dad about, said we should get it checked out. Will probably take a while to get it to it, all things considered. Hopefully it's just one of those temporary granular things I read about and will safely disappear into nothingness in a week or something. Hopefully. anyway.
Dad is cooking jambalaya. Leftovers. ♥♥

Mom still not out of hospital. May be out tomorrow, but have to go back Monday morning for gall bladder surgery.
meanwhile apparently at some point cockroaches invaded the cabinets. and running out of clothes (besides shirts) because we haven't had time to wash clothes. and having to clean up after cat because haven't had time to clean litter boxes.
and etc.
kind of wanted to play a game to try to de-stress, but too tired. getting new games Tu/Wed anyway, not much point I guess. maybe guitar hero. I was doing pretty well at nano this year. 4 projects left in one class, interview in another, web site in another. main worry 3 animations. little time to work on them. hate lightwave. sound like rorschach. heh.
chest muscles kind of hurt. one breast kind of tender, don't know why. want to sleep. stress cry. have stuff to do. don't remember what. good night. will hopefully be capable of coherency next time I write. want to do tourney of the hand. oh well. night.
