So-  first two days of classes down, and I've been to each and every one once.  Including an extra one.   My schedule is rapidly becoming bizarre, as I have three classes Monday,  one class Tuesday, four classes Wednesday,  a class and a four hour lab Thursday, and two classes Friday.  It doesn't really make sense, does it?

This really is the end result of my original second Tuesday class being godawful- after wading out through the snow, past the horse barns and the arena, where there are no sidewalks and the road is nice and brown slushy, then wandering through a labyrinth of research buildings (many of which look rather ghetto.  Trailer park and concrete ghetto.), I was informed that this little one credit class would include: really boring primary literature science papers, a twenty minute oral presentation, a five page paper, and the joy of joys- it all has to be on nitric oxide.  They really went down the list and ticked off my favorite things: public speech, chemicals, and busy work for no good reason.

It didn't take me long to realize I was siting in the wrong classroom entirely.  This was ammended today, when I sat in on a different version of the same class, and found a little piece of home: the whole thing was targetted specifically at EEB majors.  No papers, no chemicals, just guest lecturers, outdoor labs, and organismal biology.  ^_^  I was a very happy, not to mention relieved, Wind.

One quick trip through Peoplesoft later, I have swapped classes and all is right with the world again.  This does mean that Wednesdays are now my "days that never end," but it starts with English and ends with Bio- my favorites.  ^^  It could be far worse.

Because I am lazy, I didn't post the two drabbles I finished yesterday.  All of, oh, three people may enjoy them, as they're HunterxHunter based, but at least they're something.  Also- they're not perfect by any means, or particularily editted. -_-;  I apologize, but since I'm using them as writer's block breakers, and they're /drabbles/, damnit, I have convinced myself to let them go.

First up is Hisoka. . . Not by choice, really, but because the man is a creepy psychopathic bastard, and the less time he spends in my head the better off we all are.  If you're familiar with the manga and/or anime, you know exactly what I'm talking about and should be cringing appropriately.  He's disturbing, utterly insane, and perverted enough to make me twitch and scream.  This means, of course, that he's a beautifully nasty character.  Thus, he's a wonderful test of my abilities. If I can make anyone else twitch and feel uncomfortable, then I've done my civic duty.

And also, because the poor man, never, ever, gets any attention, a Leorio drabble.  I'm afraid it's not terribly exciting, but my muses are doing their best to make a backstory for him. . . So he might actually get a plot of his own someday.

Leorio: Coins and Coattails )

That's all for now. . . I'll give Kuroro and Kurapika a shot before long.  However, it's almost midnight, and I need my steady six hours of sleep before I keel over.   Four classes as well as karate makes for a rather full day. . .

And now I'm on to the next one!
