Been a long time, I doubt anyone even reads this blog anymore since I haven't updated it in 5 years, and the last post anyone commented on is 6 years old. I need someplace to rant though now that I'm in college.
The college I'm going to has a required first year class called College Survival, personally I assumed it'd be helping me get into the habit of properly taking notes, good study habits, and helping me to get into the habit of checking the site the school uses for assignments.
I instead got a teacher that never told anyone to check the moodle, which this teacher had assignments on that she said herself were never going to be given out in the class.
The class also seems completely aimless, we've been shown stuff from motivational speeches that touch on something called Hell Week in the US navy, to viewing slideshows about different jobs, their pay, and their risk that was an assignment for everyone in the class to put together at least one. We've had to do some half-baked re-enactment of The Three Fates that was supposed to teach us how much time we spend doing certain things, but reminded the entire class about their mortality, and we've had speakers come in and tell us about their jobs, like one woman who is a friend of the teacher who had apparently lived up shits creek financially as a kid and started getting an education later than normal because of it, but now owns and runs a restaurant. We've even learned shit about how to use credit cards, and the textbook for this class even goes over the risks of unprotected sex.
I really don't know what I'm supposed to be learning, and the stress from this class and it's absurd amount of homework has had me wanting to drop out of this community college for a while now. This is only the first term though, and I'd rather not have to retake this class if I did drop out, but decided I wanted to try again some years down the line.
I plan on talking to one of the school counselors about this class and how completely aimless and confusing it feels. I don't have any problems against the teacher, she's trying her best and isn't a bad person, I feel like she's unintentionally condescending sometimes and I always get passive aggressive if not outright angry as a knee-jerk to that kind of stuff. She doesn't deserve to be the target of my frustration though.
That's about it, if someone actually read this, have a good morning/day/evening/night.

A happy birthday to a fictional character.

If you're in the Homestuck fandom, or someone who has at least read the first page of the comic, then you know that today is John Egbert's birthday. To all of my fellow fans, I say hello, and I hope that when it comes to its end that we are in some way pleasantly surprised by something in the finale update(s). And to those who have no idea what I'm talking about, I give a link. I hope that you all enjoy the rest of the day.

Animal Crossing New Leaf: An Odd Encounter

Hello everyone!

So, at the time of me typing this up, I had just left Tortamor Island. When I got to Tortamor Island, I had decided to use the world wide thing (I'm a member of Club Tortamor) where I met this guy.

I'm fairly certain that he was Japanese. I said hello to him then he said, or at lest tried to say, that he does not speak English. Then, when I went to the outside part of the island to gather fruit to sell, (to pay my loan) he came out and gave me a LOT of bells (it's the money of the game.)  He gave me much more than my character's wallet could hold. I said, "thank you" and I really hope that he at least could tell that I was thanking him, but it has left me a little weirded out that someone from the other side of the world, who does not know me, gave me that many bells for no reason.

And no, before anyone asks, he did not get mad or object to me picking up the money that he put on the ground. (That is, as far as I know, the only way to give fellow players stuff; drop it on the ground and have them pick it up.)

Well, that's all for now so farewell till next time.

Outernauts (quick post)

Hello everyone.

Not to long ago, I found the game known as: Outernauts on Kongregate.

It's similar to Pokemon, only in Outernauts, you have a choice of 4 or 5 starters, instead of just three. (I picked the fire starter, by the way.) At first glance, it doesn't even seem like a "catch monsters" sort of game, the title makes it sound more like travel in a space ship with graviton particle beams.

The game has some really good humor too, but it's not the kind you should show to little kids. It's more for teenagers and adults or some where in that age group. But this is mostly just my opinion, why not go play it yourself? Just click the link earlier in this post. Have a good time!

I'v got a pony tumblr

Hey, everyone. Long time no see!

Well, I just wanted to tell you that I have a pony ask blog on Tumblr. It still has that new blog smell, so let's see to it that it goes away, ( mostly because that new blog smell is not so nice after a while.)

Here's the link: http://missdragonica.tumblr.com/

Make sure to scroll down to see my older posts. Sorry there's not much to see yet, but if I get some asks I can use, then there will be more posts.

Why Is Fantasy University Closing?

Hi everyone.

Sorry for being late with this, but one of my favorite games at Kongregate is about to close forever and I don't know why.

Behold:



What the heck? If anyone knows why Fantasy University is closing, please tell me. It's a great game! I started playing it again recently, (I only stopped playing before because Cheer Mongers are haaaaard!)

As you can see from the above message, they don't say at all why they're closing the game down. Obviously, I'm not real happy that the game is ending, and I want to know why! Can anyone help? Does anyone out there know what the deal is here? I would appreciate it.

PS, for anyone still playing, my guild is called: Fluffernutter.

Bullying Sucks

Hi everyone.

Now, to start, I was bullied at school, and now I'm home-schooled. And yes, that means that I won't be bullied now and my life is not a living hell anymore. But I only have one friend now and I don't get to see her much.

No, I didn't lose any friends due to home-school, I lost someone who I thought was my best friend. Then, one day, she was really mean to me. For some reason I was no longer cool enough to be her friend anymore. First, she had one of her new friends say that to me, then she told me to my face, herself. She just threw me under a bus, so to speak. It did not take to long after she did this for me to find out (with the help of my Editor, the Mistress of a Mythspent Youth) to finlly see that she had been mean to me in ways I had not seen before.

Well, getting back on topic, don't bully anyone. It does NOT make you cool, it makes you a jerk. Also, it DOES make life a living hell for someone else. To bully someone makes as much sense to me as war, (which makes no sense at all.) Watch this video.
