You know, I’ve had a pretty shit day. I was going to rant about The Lecturer from Hell who’s being pretty hell-y lately. But then I wrote a birthday message for my old Greek teacher and he thanked me and mentioned that time I won a Greek competition and how proud he is of his old student. I’m tearing up right now.

Bad lecturers like that guy’ll be forgotten once I’m done studying, but the great teachers and lecturers I’ve had will stay with me. And I’m thankful for that.

#university student woes #teachers #this especially goes for my latin and greek teachers from high school #these people have so much faith in me it's insane #they're really smart and warm people and their warmth and trust has meant a lot #i'm still semi-crying they're so great

I drew some buzzing bees. Bzzz!

“Lets open our eyes in 3… 2….. 1……..”

I had this thought last night about what happens when Ladybug and Cat Noir decide that it’s time to learn each others true identities and how adorable it could be.

As always, please do not repost my art.

Look at that shit. Look! Word’s telling me to be more concise and cut out an unnecessary adverb. I am outraged. I am disgusted. Technology has gone too far! Humans are playing god! The machines are going to rise up and enslave us all and force us to use concise language oh my god!

I’m mostly outraged because Word’s right, though. I use too many adverbs... :(

#writing #word #writing is hard #i dunno i just feel bad that word's essentially a better writer than me

Me: I'm very afraid

Other person: have you tried just not being afraid?

Me: holy shit

Me: *suddenly turns into a beautiful butterfly and spreads wings and is not afraid*

#anxiety #people are so helpful!

Our lecturer randomly chooses two groups to do a presentation for every lecture. The first time, my group was one of the unfortunate ones. We figured - right, then we'll be safe for a while, right? Today my group (I wasn't there) got picked again. They, of course, protested and said they'd already presented. The lecturer: It's so that nobody feels safe. I mean, that's a good point except THAT'S THE KIND OF FUCKING THING A SERIAL KILLER SAYS.

#university student woes #living in fear #maybe just try waterboarding next year dude #i mean why shy away from physical torment?

I do cute art for my Facebook, because Facebook makes me sad. This is the most recent one and I like it a lot.

I feel like when you’re writing, organizing chapters and dialogue is easy

but jfc, the amount of time it takes to constantly keep people moving and make sure they’re in the right spaces and trying to come up with wording for it is always such a shock.

Like, fuck, I made you pick up a coffee cup, you need to put it down at some point. also I can’t remember what I dressed you in, can you push up your sleeves? I don’t remember if you even have your shirt on.

and YOU. YOU OVER THERE, you got out of your chair earlier, but did you come back yet? Are you coming back? Where did you even go and why’d you get up? Fuck, I can’t make you sit down again already, you just stood up, go…over there. go get more coffee. Did you bring your mug with you? fine. bring the pot to the table and—wait, wasn’t the coffee pot already over here? shit, hold on, I need to go back and re-read and re-write

I certainly would not mind going back to Pittsburgh to chill on the Shakespeare statue, but if this means I’m there PERMANENTLY, I will need an extension cord and people will need to toss food up to me.

Basically my avatar is me in visual novel sprite form created for this small visual novel I made for my friend. In this universe she’s an evil dictator who takes over the world on her birthday.

Pretty much how my life is already *shrugs*

i hate when people in movies/tv are reading ancient languages and they translate everything really smoothly and poetically, as if when people who study ancient languages aren’t consulting three different commentaries and sobbing profusely when we read

quousque

ok so like…. it says

“come you all into the deepest cavern, or maybe that’s fireplace, depends on usage, and having come may you give your…. treasures? Skin? Pants? I don’t know, something…. to the….. about-to-be-adored guy, that one who…. okay, he either causes earthquakes or sleeps a lot, I think this might be an idiom….”

thoodleoo

“ok, sorry that took so long and i hate to disappoint but i’m still not entirely sure what it means, like, it could be something about a religious ceremony or it could be a dick joke. leaning towards dick joke, might be both. knowing the ancients, probably both. this could very well be an ancient dick temple and we should probably leave.”

actual quotes from my friend who was translating medieval welsh and/or cornish

“are you a mutation?” “what’s Gwynn doing here? he’s not being a person he’s being an adjective” “please be a form of the verb ‘to be’, I have no other ideas”

#*snort* dick temple #this is all so true though #translating is hard as fuck

The Mr. Darcy Fantasy isn’t based in what it’s usually made out to be based in

The fantasy isn’t that a brooding “tall, dark and handsome” man will come and swoop you of your feet.

Darcy changes for Elizabeth. She rejects him, she stands up to him, she insults him in a magnitude of ways, both warranted and not, and he takes all of that, and he reflects on it, and he changes his behavior. He tries to be better. Because he respects Elizabeth and he finds her opinion valuable.

Think about it. A usual response, both back then and today, would be to dismiss Elizabeth as a “crazy bitch.” He doesn’t do that at all, no, he takes valid criticism found among misunderstandings and takes it to heart.

The Mr. Darcy Fantasy is a fantasy about being respected and having your opinion be valued very highly.

The Mr. Darcy Fantasy is that a man would be willing to change his behavior just to be worthy of you.
