WIRELESS!

[cerulean_sky]

Whee! Wireless cafes make me a happy Sky. Yup! I managed to convince my dad to take me into town and drop me off at the cafe while he went grocery shopping.

On the subject of my dad though, apparently he's decided that I need to do practice college visits. So I have to make an appointment to go visit the College of Santa Fe (which I am not applying to, and cannot possibly be persuaded to apply to) and St. John's College (which I will apply to, but I probably won't go there unless I don't get into any of the other places I apply.) Which... I'm not enitrely happy about. I'm going to visit rajenath at SJC anyway, but wtf is the point of doing a practice visit? Apparently, the point is to make sure that I don't make a fool out of myself. *sigh* At least I don't have to visit UNM, all the way in fucking Albuquerque.

But seriously, what I supposed to do? Pretend that I'm interested? Or tell them that I'm not even interested? What is the point of that? I can see where practicing some things makes sense. But this just doesn't.

On the plus side, I think I might get to spend a night at SJC, since they start on the 25th. (25th? I think that's right, I could be wrong though.)

Also, I've actually been doing some writing and editing on things. Which means that I am a good girl! *preens* I started... five different stories in the last few days. All of them are between on paragraph, and a page and a half long so far. Which, again, means that Sky is a good girl!

[random] One of the cashiers here looks like someone. Like... from a movie or a show. And I'm fairly sure that he isn't, but I still can't remember who or what show/movie. And it's bugging me.

And I wanna cosplay as Count D from Pet Ship of Horrors and Ritsuka from Loveless. Because. I think it would be fun. And I could totally pull them both off. *nods* [/random]

Also, my dad is going to the opera tonight, and leaving me alone with my step-mother. I haven't spoken to the woman in... about 5 days now. Maybe more. She's seriously pissed at me, and I'm seriously pissed at her. Methinks I will be spending much of the time hiding in my room.

::Momentarily delurks:: Count D from Petshop!!

I did practice visits too. It's mostly just to get used to what to look for on campus, what questions to ask, finding out things you're sure you do/don't want, that kind of thing.

Upperclassmen have registration the 23rd, freshmen and sophomores the 24th (whee!) and Convocation the 25th. We have a seminar on Plato's Meno on the 24th, but the one on the Iliad on the 25th is listed as "First Seminar."

Pretend visit? Are you planning on doing interviews or something?

And I wanna cosplay as Count D from Pet Ship of Horrors and Ritsuka from Loveless. Because. I think it would be fun. And I could totally pull them both off. *nods*

Wait, you want to cosplay both at the same time?

And whoa. You -never- told me you had a stepmother!

...who said anything about pretend? It's "practice".

... I have nothing to say to that.

My mom is my stepmom. It explained it ages ago.

[airiviel.livejournal.com]

Ooops, I meant to say "practice". But aren't college visits usually just like...an info session and a tour?

Wow, my memory must seriously be getting worse when I can't even remember hearing that your mom's your stepmom.

[cerulean-sky.livejournal.com]

Yup. I get to go tour a college that I have no intention of going to.

I surprised a bunch of people, apparently.

I am in the Santa Fe Baking Company right now, having breakfast. *grins*

Would that I could get there, but woe, I cannot. I could, maybe, meet you someplace later today, perhaps. Say Borders or some such. :D But I would have to find myself a ride. So I do not know.
