I don't have enough space up here to put either of the two quotes I was going to use as my subject.


The day after... well, no. By this point, it'll be tomorrow... that I leave for college.

PROS OF LEAVING FOR COLLEGE:
-I won't have to deal with my parents.
-I won't be grossed out by my brother leaving his clothes, wet, on the bathroom floor.
-I'll have a degree of independance and freedom that I haven't known before, even living in New York City.
-I'll finally be ~*in college*~ and I'll get to have ~*the college experience*~.

CONS OF LEAVING FOR COLLEGE:
-I'm leaving New York City.
-I'm leaving my friends in New York City.

I met up with one of said friends to go cosplay shopping today (I finally got a wig head, by the way, as well as a Stephen Colbert!America wig) and it was fun and I had a great time and everything... but god, I'm going to miss it so much. I find myself just hoping that there's a fabric store and/or a wig store in Waltham, because otherwise I don't even know what I'll do. I'm just... gonna miss New York. So, so much.

I'm continuing my work on Fullmusical Alchemist. (Highlight to see Fullmetal Alchemist spoilers... even though it's pretty basic, if you're like me and think that spoilers are the plague and want to avoid them at all costs, and you haven't seen FMA yet... then don't highlight this.) I just got past Hughes' death and god, I'm just so depressed now. Even if it also means that I finally got to write my Riza/Roy scene... I just... ugh. Could really use a hug right about now. TL;DR: There are some ridiculously depressing points in FMA. I just got past one of them.

My video meme thing is still open, by the way. If you want me to say/do/answer something, anything, on camera... then just go ahead and ask me to, and I will! Basically, I have a webcam now, and want to play with it. So go crazy. Within reason, I'll do it, just for kicks.  XD

Oh, and... to everyone who read though my last entry (my last real entry- not the memes one), I just want to say... thank you. For still being here, and not abandoning me for being such a sluttrampwhorebitch. I appreciate it so much more than I can say... especially because I'd completely understand if you just left after that, disgusted with me entirely.

Haha... I always wonder "well, why don't they just go to the schools available in their towns?" XP

Even if my family is not what one would call "SUPER CLOSE," we sometimes have lunch and dinner together... it's... weird... we all have different schedules, but I feel like we're close. I don't know about my brother, but I like being around my parents and talking to my mom and stuff.

Yeah... it's because they're not always as good, or they're more expensive... or they just don't have one in their town. There's a whole host of reasons... but it's actually pretty typical for Americans to go away to college and dorm there.

And... huh. I mean, when I'm at home, I eat meals with my family, and I guess we're kinda close... but... I dunno. We're better than the average American family, but... I still don't feel extraordinarily close to my family.
