03/03/2005: "No more tests.. finally!"

Current Sounds: Utada Hikaru - Final Distance
Currently Feeling: Mountain Dew-ish

I'm in a sort of odd state right now.. halfway between moving for the sake of moving (hyper) and doing absolutely nothing. Probably related to the sudden burst of caffeine and sugar. Still not awake enough to actually feel up to getting up and going, but my body has excess energy. I think.

Last test of the week is done now, so today I just need to go to school and smile and nod. I can manage that, so it's fine. I need to study a bit more for Japanese (have new kanji to learn, all the days of the week), but I can practice that and study in one of my other classes. Speaking of which, I'm really glad I mentioned that. I forgot to grab my kanji flashcards and throw them in my backpack.

Now that I've been terribly boring, I guess I should talk about something interesting. So.. what's interesting? I'm going to the library today to drop off some books.. today's my last day of classes this week (yay!), so tonight I can finally get to some of those projects I've been wanting to start/finish (like getting this designed and done). I'm about 3/4 through "Mercenaries". It's a really fun game, though, especially as you're able to buy more stuff (and what you can buy gets much better than what you can originally pick from). I'm also currently playing about 4 other games, so.. it'll probably be good once it's over so I can free up my time for the other stuff a bit.

Unfortunately, still no news yet on whether or not I have a job in Japan. I'm getting a bit worried, considering I wanted to buy my tickets before the middle of this month. Bleh. I just have to pretend to be calm and keep waiting. Hopefully I'll get news soon (and even more hopefully, that news will be positive). Regardless of the outcome, I'll be buying my tickets by about the end of the month, unless a really good reason to wait comes up between now and then. I've worked to secure this trip to Japan, so I'm not going to let it slip away. But.. I'd much rather spend the summer there rather than spending only two weeks.

Have to get running to school. I did find the kanji cards, so.. that's good. I'll have to try to write something of note again soon.
