More like more essays to turn in that are a huge chunk of the grade percentage!
Easter was pretty swell. Both my roommates bailed to campus to celebrate 4/20 whilst I munched on peeps and cheap chocolate while marathoning shows.
Doing the Mass Effect thing and first game is pretty fun! Got to romance space wife Liara, which I guess is the only current same-sex love interest for FemShep anyway, sadly :T Maybe I'll shake that up for ME2. It's interesting how the Paragon/Renegade thing is utilized in ME when my immediate comparison (which i think most people were doing at the time) was Dragon Age II with the Friendship/Rivalry scale. The former seems to make more sense to me, in terms of how Shepherd does things and wants her reputation to be seen as, though the latter is definitely more social and personal vis a vis your companions and certain people in Kirkwall which doesn't necessarily mean overall reputation like how Shepherd is.
My DOINK! assignments look really interesting. They go outside of my normal comfort zone in terms of whom I'm writing on, but it's going to be a great challenge because most of them are things that I haven't really thought too much before or put onto paper. I'm hoping I'll get it done without having to rush or complicate things with my own reading and schoolwork (in which there's a lot. Cuz I'm going to be reading people like Hume and Locke by then, and Franz Fanon).
Also going to Fanime in San Jose! Hear's hoping that I get money by then!?
