So I'm writing this paper, yeah?
No, not really. I'm writing. And researching. For. Original. Crap. Instead.
..................
I didn't touch Java or Japanese all this week but I've been struggling TRYING to get this essay done, but. UGH. At least I got the intro paragraph down, and I made a really silly outline that needs a lot of translation before it can turn into a proper essay. But it took me all week to even gain my bearings on this thing. Usually essays take me five days, tops, but this took me a week. I blame it on the vague prompt she gave us. For all the book likes to talk about clarity, it has some awfully vague writing prompts. Srsly.
Not having more classes dampens the motivation I need to even begin writing essays on things I don't care about. I have to up the ante on my Java and Japanese study next week though, even with the test I have next week. Hopefully I can do it. I haven't forgotten everything, but I'll have to brush up on my kanji recognition!
I made accidental friends on Friday with
r4inbowvomit. My friend made most of it happen. But they looked through my SKETCHBOOK. My closest friends don't even know what's in there! OTL; It was fun. So yeah, since they asked me to advertise for them, here:
MIKAWAYA!!! They give really generous portions (at least in Little Tokyo's plaza over here) for really good prices (compared to the bigger ice cream shops around) and it's really good. It got featured on Huell Howser's show once, too! They gave us free dango since they made us draw for them, which was really delicious, except I got a stomachache since I ate too many sweets. OTL; THEY KEPT FEEDING US FFFFF.
