So it’s over. This semester, at any rate.
It’s hard to summarize how I feel at this point. It’s been rather hectic, the past few weeks, mainly because I was juggling a cacophony of projects at once, along with the newly-added dangers of the environment.
I am, of course, talking about snow.
I’ve been here now for about two months? Three? Things are slowly but surely settling down, with me (more or less) working out a routine of sorts for my never-ending assignments, my apartment maintenance, and my regular re-assurances to my parents that I am eating/living fine.
It’s been gratifying to make the middle of the semester without handing in any assignment late thus far, I suppose: I am actually rather relieved that the mid-term so-called “exams” were nothing more than glorified quizzes of sorts, in that they were probably designed for people coming out of Primary 6 rather than the goddamn Army: it meant that, although I spent a grand total of absolutely no time at all studying for them, I managed to come out with some rather impressive scores (in my opinion).
In any rate, far better than some other students who love to talk in class, love to ask the tutors questions, and still hand in assignments late.
I actually have not listened to the Linkin Park song of the same name, to be honest, even though, rather embarrassingly, I must admit, I do happen to have a few of their offerings in my foobar playlist.
No, this post is literally about what I’ve been working my ass off on for the past few weeks in Digipen.
No, I have not bought hats. Actually, I despise hats, if only for the fact that they degrade situational awareness in many cases, and also because they’re incredibly uncomfortable.
Unfortunately, no, this post is to bring my mind a little more up to speed with how my 4-year epic in the United States has gone thus far.
If you thought typing on an iPhone was bad, trust me: it’s not a whole lot better on this Aria. At least the haptic feedback isn’t a complete pile of shit like it is on the samsung p3. Other than that it’s a lot better than the iphone, that is, after I root this damn device. AT&t really fucking sucks balls.
It’s pretty nice. Though it means I have to update my front page soon to reflect my new change of address.
I’ve pretty much settled in about as well as I possibly can, with Comcast (fuck them, by the way. Seriously, which ISP even still practices bandwidth limits on all their subscription plans?) providing me with the means to type this current post, and my mom/dad bumbling around at every step of the way.
