Joy: Anime Convention this weekend, leaving tomorrow for Toronto, Ontario for the Con.
Supreme Sorrow: My friend Benjamin has passed away last night in a car accident... his funeral is Monday. This also means the forums has lost a member... it's hard to find how to say this, because I feel like everything I want to type is so impersonal.
Rest In Peace, Zalgo. Rest In Peace, Benjamin.

It'll be painful for a long time, but you'll get through this, eventually. Just hang in there in the meantime.

Re: Joys And Sorrows
They are like a super-species of bugs! They are immune to bug spray! Ugh! I thoroughly enjoy flushing them down the toilet! Not immune to that! Heh Heh Heh!

Re: Joys And Sorrows
I didn't quite get the whole stink bug thing. They showed up here a few months ago, and at first I was a bit scared of them, assuming from their moniker that they would smell terrible when they died. I've seen several of them around, I've killed a couple, but I never noticed any sort of trademark odor that they're apparently known for. Maybe my nostrils and/or our stinkbugs were defective?
"Sorrow"- Time to draft an essay based on one of a series of terrible prompts from my English teacher. The only reason I chose the one I did was because it was the only one that actually seemed to be an essay, and even so it's not really a literary analysis essay.

Re: Joys And Sorrows
Shho is just as far north as you, silly- he's from New Jersey. It's probably because you're further inland.Coatl_Ruu wrote:Joy: We don't get stink bugs up north.
Most of them were actually creative writing to an extent- ie., write a letter to this person in the book, write this essay as Harry Truman, etc. This was the only one that didn't involve adopting a persona, even so it is mostly based on personal statements of opinion- written in first person. I don't care if CollegeBoard says it's okay, essays written in first person are hard to write and look weird.Coatl_Ruu wrote:What were the prompts?"Sorrow"- Time to draft an essay based on one of a series of terrible prompts from my English teacher.

Oh, and also the essay structure is much too specific. I don't want to include a paragraph on the pros and cons of using atomic bombs, because it's completely irrelevant to the thesis I wrote! rgh.
Joy- I'm probably about halfway done by now, so y'know

Re: Joys And Sorrows
Bad, but kinda good- my dog shocked himself by chewing through a wire. It certainly surprised him, and I'm a bit worried that his stomach seems to have been surprised as well, but it hopefully will teach him to stop destroying all the wires in the house

After crying for over an hour, I'm left with a stomachache and a headache, and I feel pretty horrible right now. What a horrific end to my already awful week....
