SO CLOSE TO BEING DONE...but just with the draft orz

[gogmagog]

Wow, I always forget how important transitions and editing are to paper length; I'd finally given up on about page 12 and said to myself, "Well, I'll turn in the draft as is, I guess; I'll just do a quick edit/polish so that it's not too horrible, add some transitions, and e-mail it to my prof." It didn't turn out to be particularly quick, but it did turn out fruitful - while I'm still not quite done with the edit/transitions, I have gone from barely 11 pages to 12 1/2 through the edits/transitions alone. I'm betting I'll be on page 13 by the time I finish this edit. And wow, but it makes me feel quite productive. XD

As you can tell I didn't get it done by noon as originally planned, orz

In the meantime, apparently Vaan from Final Fantasy XII is secretly Osama bin Laden.

Edit: Also, apparently the author of the Babysitters Club books is a lesbian. Does that mean Kristy x Mary Anne is now canon? 'Cause, you know, I always wondered...

Edit 2: Draft done and turned in, woohoo! Now I can actually shower and shave for the first time in like three days (haha, I know...eww) and then go get some supper and relax before spending tomorrow on Beowulf stuff. :D :D: D

I didn't read Babysitters' Club so much, but I totally dug the series she wrote about the little sister, and I like them even more now... PS -- I don't know what "orz" means...

Heh. I kind of thought AMM was out ages ago, too. Maybe I am a great mindreader of teh literary ghei? XD I adored those books when I was little. I wanted to be Claudia, except for the dyslexia thing. >3

Totally unrelatedly, have some disturbing TMNT pr0n (http://filebox.vt.edu/users/mhemsteg/tmntnet2.mov). Made me think of you, actually, because I hadn't really thought about the fact this must exist until you brought it up. I mean, I know somewhere that all pr0n exists, but I'd never given this particular bit of my childhood and it being ransacked and pillaged much thought, you know? >3

And still more pr0n for you!

OH MY GOD.

I keep dying a lot lately. Here's something else that's killed me that I think you'd appreciate. (http://www.livejournal.com/tools/memories.bml?user=mississippienne&keyword=porntagenet&filter=all)

For my birthday in second grade (whatever age one generally turns during second grade...seven?) I got all the Babysitter's Club books up to that point. I was ECSTATIC. One of my mom's friends worked for Scholastic, so she got a huge discount.

Congrats on getting your draft done! I helped Vin edit a paper today and we added on a whole page in length! :)
