[OOC] The Rebel Vampire

[PopeAlessandros]

Like I said, no rush. I will be here waiting :P *Pulls out pom poms* I root for yous!

[TShara]

As far as why I didn't do this yesterday... most of the day was taken up by doing my Technical Writing homework for the week.

Any chance you know about Thermodynamics? :-P

[PopeAlessandros]

I. . .know. . .what it is, but my recall on the subject would not be helpful sorry :P I will have to simply continue cheering!

[TShara]

Well, trust me when I tell you that I'd MUCH rather be RPing with you. Everything is just very difficult right now. It would become easier if I could just drop a class, but given the hassle it took for me to get into these classes to begin with, that's not really an option.

[PopeAlessandros]

Yays, I'm more fun than school work :P Good luck with all yer classes! I send good feelings :P

[TShara]

Well, I found out that the Thermo homework isn't due until Wednesday. So yay! Have to do the pre-lab tomorrow because I don't have the software (long story, most of it not my fault). And I've caught up on sleep. So that means, make pot of coffee and spend the rest of the gorram night studying for this test. And then buy a case of mountain dew, and do the same thing tomorrow night. Come on life... we got this... FUCK YEAH....

[PopeAlessandros]

WHOOOO! *Whips out bigger black pom poms* I will continue cheering! Go student life!!!! *Stripper poll appears out of nowhere* Yes! *Does really good cheer including poll dance*

[TShara]

That sounds... distracting. :-D Thanks for the encouragement. I hope you enjoy your evening! I am going to try and stop replying now... because being friendly with my online friends is more fun than work, and I've wasted 15 mins now.

[TShara]

I survived... sort of. Still have that Thermodynamics test on Friday, homework in the same class due tomorrow... Oh, and I'm moving into my new apt on the same day. Plus, usual Technical Writing homework due Sunday night and a major lab report due Monday.

And you're currently second on my list, because I need to get a post out to Jiskastya for our second RP before the forum we use "graveyards" our story.

[PopeAlessandros]

*Applauds* Yay for living! I have all faith in you. Also, yays, I'm on the list :P

*Giggles* Her and I are in dispute again, well, just came out of dispute actually. We've been RPing for so long, and we're still only 19 posts in :P

[TShara]

Yeah, when I recommended you guys to each other, I didn't take into account the fact that you both have slightly dominant writing personalities. All I saw was "Epic writer + epic writer = 2*epic story!" So, sorry about that. :-)

Speaking of slow stories, do you still want to continue our other one? I know it's my turn, and I've been shirking it really badly... Unfortunately, I can't guarantee I'll start posting faster, so I understand if you would rather formally end it. If you want to continue, I will make more of an effort instead of all but ignoring it, though.

[PopeAlessandros]

No, it's okay. I think we just have to find our groove :P I think she's too technical, and she thinks I'm too domineering :P

I enjoy our other one, so I am willing to wait patiently between posts. I would however not mind formally dropping the third one we've ignored for several months now :P It's a fine idea but I see us fighting a lot, and three looks to be a little too much of a work load on you. So, to the second one, post when you feel like it. I don't mind.

[TShara]

I hope you guys can figure it out.

In my mind, the third one's basically cancelled. And yes, that's one where I would have trouble taking a backseat on it, and I would get waaay too technical. So it's probably better that we leave it alone. I still loved the idea, however. :-)

Alright, I'll try and go for a reasonable goal of one post per month, and then try and improve from there. I know that sounds incredibly modest and borderline lazy, but I'm still working on that technique of changing one's habits by setting goals that seem easy and then gradually adding more bit by bit instead of setting oneself up for failure.

[PopeAlessandros]

*Shakes pom poms* I have faith in you! You can do eeeet!

[TShara]

I dropped Thermo so that I'd have time to work on other classes, two of which I still have make up work for. Not to mention, I've been ignoring other aspects of my life, such as four different bureaucratic nightmares to work out. Also, there's that stress management and mental health thing that I've never been particularly good with.

So, I might get to your post sooner, as I no longer have anything due before Sunday. I still have to do the one for Jisk first, though.

[PopeAlessandros]

*Pats on shoulder* You do what you feel best. I'm glad this will remove some of your stress.

[TShara]

I wasted some time and money, but ultimately this makes my workload a tad more manageable. I discussed it with my adviser and even though she doesn't like Ws, she agreed it was probably best.

[PopeAlessandros]

Ws?

[TShara]

Withdrawing from a class shows a W on your academic record. It's neither a pass or fail, and doesn't affect your GPA, it just shows that you started it and then dropped it.

[PopeAlessandros]

Ah, I see. Anyways, I throw luck you way! *Fling*
