September Blues September 26, 2007

September really just happens to be the 3rd busiest month of the year for me (1st of the school year). Some crazy stuff has been happening, and yea I’ve neglected anime blogging since it took up a lot of time (but I shall get back to it… eventually). I’ve also been thinking of blogging about some manga volumes I’ve been buying (mostly manhwa actually).

So far there’s been the homework, the projects, the quizes and the gossip. Then of course after avoiding anime for a whole month I got back into the groove and finished off Toward the Terra (oh yea, I BOW DOWN BEFORE MAKOTO WHO FINISHED SUBBING IT), Seirei no Moribito has been so much love lately, Heroes Season 2 started, Avatar: The Last Airbender Book 3: Fire reminded me how much I loved the series, Naruto has been revealing quite a lot of information, and I got sick.

Everyone’s sick. Its spreading in my school. It’s like a plague or something.

Some productive things on my part are buying Howl’s Moving Castle and Gedo Senki (Night Market was fun, tons of yummy food).

And now, I have to get back to “Socializing” and prepare for “Frenching” tomorrow. 

 

The Evil That Is “Homework” September 16, 2007

Filed under: Essay, Homework — ebulliencejj @ 10:38 pm

       So in my absolutely, interesting English class, the teacher told us to write a persuasive essay as to why “we shouldn’t get homework”. If we were persuasive enough, she actually might not (she so contradicting, she gave us homework so that we don’t get homework). This led to me, and the many others in my class, to thinking as to why we shouldn’t get homework. Really, I don’t have a problem with homework. I have a problem with the amount we’re getting though. But I have no hope for the not getting homework thing. She assigned us loads so far (apparently it was because she hasn’t finished grading our essays…. garg, teachers and their little “work-around-the-problem tactics”).

So yea my essay that includes robots, monkeys, piranhas, and the Titanic (it really is about not getting homework). Basic 5-paragraph essay.

Titanic Exhibition September 5, 2007

Okay so this summer I went  to Victoria with my family and relatives. It just so happened that the Titanic exhibition was in town, so we just had to see it. Putting aside the price (so freakin’ expensive. I was glad I didn’t pay). Details undercut.
