And the silence of the shining stone
like the shattering crystal of the poet cries:
"I the enigma undefined,
the error of my age;
the players and the play defamed
that tread a timeless stage.
Ay! both hero and the rake,
of tragedy and of comic parts;
the dirge at many a wake
and the wit that veins the farce."
Oscar Wilde

New link up for new RPG - Cowboy's Destiny - to be run by Kallaris and myself. Notice is especially for Kallaris, but everyone else can take a look - there's not much there yet. It's over on the sidebar, under links.
Aya... been putting off looking at my grades. My mother tells me it's just a lack of cinfidence, but did you ever have that sick little feeling in the pit of your stomach that you know you failed something, or royally screwed something up? All I can hope for is that it wasn't genetics, or anything serious... but I can't help but feel that it was.
which is largely ridiculous, to look at things from a perfectly logical point of view. I had a B average at midterm, and I got B on my paper. but our final was worth nearly half our grade...
I wouldn't be quite so paranoid if I hadn't gotten an email from the college of financial aid, telling me that I had a deficiency in my credit hours... which I also got in january... after failing my microbiology class. *please o please tell me I didn't fail genetics*
*sigh* I'd still have a chance to repeat it, although it would mean making my last two semesters even more overworked than they already will be, with the number of labs that I have to finish.
The worst part is, I have a scholarship interview saturday morning. I've had the scholarship before, but they have a minimun required GPA, and I'm already below it. I don't know what persuaded them to pass me through to the interview phase (other than the fact that they're all absolutely incredible?) but if I've failed another class, I can just about kiss the scholarship goodbye.
*bashes one fist into the wall* I hate opening my report card and seeing c's and below. I hate having to explain to people that no, I didn't do as well as I thought I did yet again. I've pulled time out of my job, my recreation. I've stiffed my friends on time, and towards the end, I started taking time away from gameing, the one thing that I did that was completly unrelated to school. I've pushed myself to the point of breakdown, and it isn't enough.
Oy, Kallaris - I know this is, like, the tenth time I've asked for this, but can I get an official, codified, complete story for major whatshisname (your character)? I'm going to start backstory/plot-crafting and need your background to write it.
