"It's no fat, no sugar, no dairy...It's no good, throw it out!"

Tonight, I randomly yanked like 10 little packets of Splenda from 7-11. ::rotfl:: I'm trying to find a sugar substitute that doesn't taste like crap, and that was the only one around that doesn't contain aspartame. (we already know that aspartame is pretty yuck) I bought some of their ghetto 7-11 coffee, though, and wound up tossing half of it, so it evens out. Dutch Bros will always be first in my heart when it comes to coffee.

Work was boring. I wrote a little bit about my Spycraft character's aunt, but I didn't get very far, unfortunately. I spent a lot of my shift practicing kanji and knitting. I *love* how knitting relaxes me. I predict a crazy knitting bonanza after I finish my finals, so don't be shocked if I start randomly giving you scarves and hats and potholders and such. :D

I have this kind of silly idea for trying to continue learning 3rd year Japanese, even though I won't be taking classes for the rest of the year. I have the texts, so if I can grab the syllabus and look at the website and everything, I can probably go over a lot of it myself from the book, and at least get a general idea. I also signed up on Language Exchange, in the hopes of finding somebody who'd be my conversation partner in exchange for some English help, because I don't get to speak it enough. It would be really sad if I forgot everything.

So, yeah, things I'm going to do between finals and seeing my fambly:
--apply for jobs (duh)
--update portfolio, maybe create a new one
--knit like a madwoman
--work at ye olde Vomit Comet (again, duh)
--spend a day or two around PDX and/or Seattle, maybe
--try to finish Persona 2 or WCIII (the latter more likely than the former)
--try to finish the Nanowrimo novel, which will henceforth be known as UTK.

I'm going to knit for another 20 minutes or so, and then attempt sleep.

You could also go to the University's International nights and meet someone that came from Japan.

I haven't finished Persona 2 yet either... infact month I restarted my game because I was SO stuck on the Torifune it was ridiculous! I thought I was going to kill myself... and now I'm all hung up on FF X-2... which reminds me Chrissy isn't here and I do have a few hours to kill before leaving for my meeting...

Anywho! Good luck on your P2 endeavor! I HAVE FAITH IN YOU!
