I never wanted to love, but you've got nothing that's wrong.

College. Man, it's starting to feel real. Haha, a week after the fact. I love it here. Everything about campus, everything about the crowds of people, even everything down to the sirens that go off every few hours. I love it. It's urban. :] It makes me happy, and I feel like I belong here.

I'm looking forward to my classes this semester, save for my calculus class. My teacher is an older lady, technologically-inept, and explains NOTHING. So, if I didn't have my background in calculus I would be virtually fucked. Pardon the pun, considering all of my homework and several quizzes will be online. Oh. And I have yet to get my textbooks, but hopefully they come tomorrow. -crosses fingers-

I thought I had pretty much become desynthetized to relationships and feeling anything for pretty much anyone...but like always, I had thought wrong. There's this guy. Haha, of course. This guy is in both my Biology 152 class and Biology 152 lab. Plus, he's a bio major. So, I could probably get him to help me on my homework and stuff. But this is the first time in a while that someone has given me "butterflies" -- for lack of a better word. Emotions. Got to love them. But I guess I'll see what happens. At least I took initiative and talked to him. XD

I need to e-mail this lady about minoring in music. I'm pretty much at a loss as to what "standard repertoire" exactly is. I'm thinking maybe some Vivaldi. -lessthanthree- I love Vivaldi. Oh, baroque music. :] I'm not going to get my hopes up, considering VCU seems pretty exclusive about its arts programs. It is the number-one public arts program in the U.S. It would be nice to be able to continue something that's been such a huge influence and part of my life.

That's pretty much it for now.

You said too late to start, got your heart in a headlock; I don't believe any of it

OTAKON WAS INCREDIBLE. Wow. Ota 2010 was my second Otakon, and by far the best experience I've had with the con. Probably because it wasn't my first time at a con, let alone a con that huge. But still. INCREDIBLE. I spent it with three people: my roommate, her best friend, and their guy friend. It was a blast.

It scares me how much my roommate and I have in common. We're on the same wavelength, it's insane. And awesome. And slightly scary, but did I mention it was awesome? CAUSE IT TOTALLY IS.

Anyway. I got to do shit at this con that I wanted to do, rather than my first Ota where I followed my friend around while she went to her photoshoots. @__@ I mean, that was great, but for a first con, that wasn't exactly fun. This con, I got to play Pump Pro 2 in the game room a few times, which was pretty great, stalked Christy Lijewski all three days in the artist alley, and roamed the dealer's room. We also rocked the rave. OH how I needed that. -lessthanthree-

I've come to realize that I don't feel half as bad blowing money in the artist alley as I do in the dealer's room. Partially because I know the money goes directly to the artist, and it's fucking art. :3 That and it's hard to be an artist and make a solid living. So, I feel like I'm contributing to the greater good or some shit. So, needless to say, I pretty much bought shit from Christy like I always do [no prints this time, it's a start!], and bought stuff from two other artists I follow on DeviantArt.

God. This weekend was pretty fucking awesome. Aside from someone pulling the fire alarm, but that's okay. Too bad we didn't get any "Where's Waldo?" pics. Drat.
