For further information on chaoswolf please read on.

She has been very busy recently...learning the "sacred" art of pickling. Some people consider it as such, the sacred art...I meerly consider it as a hobby. Not much in the way of adventuring, I know...but it got me in the kitchen. Yes, you read that correctly, folks: chaoswolf entered misdev's domain without permission (unless you wish to include the overridden permissions from flower_cat as permission enough to do so). Just another thing to add among the list of wierdness.....

I found out tonight that an old friend of mine is currently dating someone else who I intend to meet eventually, and I also discovered that although she is cronologically older than me by a year, she still has to finish her sr year of high school and I'm already college bound. Why is it that the class of '03 makes some things look easy? Is it just me?

I also discovered that misdev and Karen plan to leave on Saturday, which I don't seem to mind. I will miss them immensly.....but at the same time I'm kind of glad that they will be leaving. In some ways, it will stop the unwanted drama. In others, it means that the puns will not be as "fruity" whenever a fruit salad is made.

In other news, I found that all things in life should not be taken for granted. Just because I have an extra LosCon membership doesn't mean that said con will be comming easy. I will have homework to do that weekend, most likely. I will be in college then, having to do college level homework (possibly an essay or math homework or something else equally as ugly) in the consuite. Not a preffered department, but somewhere that Con Staff for that convention said they needed assistance. I will also try to be the "wandering field agent" like I was last year, taking notes on all the parties, listening to conversations in the halls, and possibly writing an entire 'zine by myself again. (This time I'll make sure to scan in the text and put a link to it in my LJ so you don't feel completly left out, folks.)

Some things, I don't want to leave behind. Other things, I kinda have to. When I say "leave behind", I'm not talking about actually leaving my parents' house yet. No, I mean things like the late night gaming on Wednesday nights, the conversations that I will periodically get into regarding politics, the caffine habit (which, btw: I am quitting), computer gaming, etc. I'm going to have to leave my old life behind me and do the homework as it overwhelms me (even though I'm going to be taking 3 classes it still seems like a hell of a lot of homework). Not all things are what they seem, but since I haven't seen college homework, I don't know what I should be expecting. The boffer wars, the cons. I might have to cut down on that if I'm going to be spending more time in school. The SCA trips, might only daytrip and bring a laptop to events (not period in the slightest, but what better to do while the late hours of dusk are upon you?). Livejournal too, I might have to leave behind. Not that I'm looking forward to leaving anything behind, but I'm letting you all know in advance that if I don't post much during my college year as a freshman, it's because I left my LJ behind me when I started. To make matters worse: the thought of leaving Mayhem behind just scares me...all the "what if" questions...

I'm pretty sure I will survive. Damned if I know how, but somehow I will make it, I think. Some will say "it's the luck of the devil." Others will say "she's a teenager, she's lucky like that." Then there's the group that says "She's a bright kid, I'm sure she'll make it." which is to be countered by the "Lucky bitch has all the time she needs to do whatever the hell she wants." Mind you, the only one that really applies here is the one in italics. In theory: I'm a teenager and can handle multitasking. In practice: well....I'll keep you posted on my ability to juggle the following: cons, SCA, school, girlfriend, Wednesday distractions. The two are not always the same, but I will try to make them be the same somehow.

That's all for now folks.

In theory is never the same as in practice...

Dispite many attempts to make it be as such. Damned if I know how to make them the same, but it won't work. Ever. It doesn't even work at cons. Doesn't even work for school. Teacher says "There's going to be a test next week, children. Make sure you study." Child says "In theory, teacher." Next week, the test doesn't get there. The only time the theory meets with the practice is if the teacher has it planned. It's not as structured as the students think it is. Take a look at my former math teacher: Mr. Thomas Crean. He's disorganized and has a slight hearing problem. He's not very good at keeping an organized system, and half the time his lectures put everyone to sleep. Even me. He keeps saying "There will be a test comming up on Friday" and he usually put us 2 units behind the other classes because he never made the tests up until either 1) the night before or 2) the week after the test was supposed to be taken. This just goes to prove my "in theory is not the same as in practice" principle.

Most of the time, life is decent to me. The rest of the time, it decides to give me something mean and evil. I don't feel too good right now, and that is probably because my Karma is comming back to torture me. I haven't done anything overtly stupid recently, however people can agree or disagree on that subject until the cows come home and I won't give a damn. The drama that has attacked the house was caused by one certain person that misdev likes to refer to as a 20 something year old body with a 4 yr old mentality....and she did come over earlier this week after the warning from flower_cat not to show up. This means that next time she does show up, cops will be on her ass so fast she won't have the time to blink.

In other news, I have been trying to deal with miscellanious things that have been popping up. I found out the other night that a friend of mine wishes for me to go to his birthday party on the 28th of this month (he probably got my phone number from his other friend who gives him rides to the Werewolf LARP, because I didn't give it to him) in addition to th efact that Coronet is that weekend. I'm going to be very busy. I have a concert from Golden Bough that weekend, I have Coronet, I have his b-day party to do...all in the same weekend. Doesn't give me much time to relax, you say? You're right. Relaxation is not something I will have that weekend anyway. That is also the week that school starts. So I will not be enjoying that either.
