So, I was googling that one quote James wrote under one of his Daisy drawings a while ago:
Tumblr media
and found this:
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
(published 2010)
BRO wtf :`)
I obviously don't know if he read that book. But it's so his vibe. He loves dogs, he loves daisies, he's into (kinda sad & sappy) literature and poems sometimes, he's very into equality and helping and comforting others. (also he's learning english)
BUT the other second, more likely, source for that quote (which is still by the first writer from that dog book). Is this random thai account
Tumblr media
WHICH IS the writer of that flower book he loves and recommended (which I am still sad that there is no english version)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
also interesting who's also following that 'positivity & motivation' account 👍
Tumblr media
I know nobody cares. I am just still on my mission on finding out why he's such a fan of daisies and flowers in general. And this brought me a bit closer to an answer. I did just google that quote and found all that in the first top links. Why did I not try that sooner? Because I may be dumb. tbh just now this attempt was lead by my own depressions so it's a nice mood lift to have found all that. + I painted one of his Daisy motives on canvas (with a little personal twist, since I didn't just want to copy it 1:1) and I am still pondering if and how I can get that quote on that painting in a thin white text (I have no pen nor brush thin enough :/...) I may show the painting some day here.
Anyways~ others use that cross-search google power for garbage blackmail, cancle culture and toxicity. I just used it to dig up nice things. 🙃

Debated with myself if I should be this vulnerable online, but honestly it needs out and maybe input from people who don't know me might be useful too.
The huge amount of not just criticism, but actual vitriol and hatedom for the Uglies Series after the movie came out has really made me despair.
Uglies the book was published in 2005 and is one of the very first YA dystopias, predating Hunger Games by three years. The novel I have been working on for the last four years, Eine Heilung vom Anderssein (english: A Cure for Being Different) is heavily inspired by it. Not in the sense of plagiarizing plot, but in that the vibes and the character arcs and the message are very similar (despite what the hatedom seems to think Uglies is not exclusively about beauty culture, but more so about conformity, oppression being largely enforced not by police but by the oppressed people having internalized its rules, and in the later books also neurodivergency).
The movie has a lot of flaws and doesn't manages to be as complex as the book. But the book is one of the best, if not the best, dystopia I ever read, and this is one of my favorite genres, so I read many. But it does not matter. People decided that all YA dystopias other than Hunger Games are shallow, dumb, cringe girl stuff and also Hunger Games clones. They don't give it the benefit of the doubt, and they don't listen even confronted with the publishing date.
How could my novel, which I know is good, but there is no way it is this good, have any chance?
Now, my dystopia is New Adult, and unlike Uglies, I knew all the genres tropes because it was written after the boom, so I could subvert them, and it has two POV characters instead of one. But it still has a kind of unlikable, naive main character who totally buys into the system. It has a world that is not meant to be a gritty real representation of an oppressive government, but an allegory. It has this mandatory operation that makes you normal, as you should be. It has this rather slow pace at the beginning that then escalates into higher and higher stakes over time.
It isn't Young Adult, but it is definitely not adult dystopia, which does seem to be something that is allowed to be labeled as good and worth thinking about, either. And I don't think I can change it to being adult dystopia without having to completely change the plot.
I specifically took everything I love about Uglies and implemented it in my own novel. Just turns out that close to everybody else hates these very same things.
Sure, my novel is canonically queer instead of just heavy subtext. But I think this is cancled out by my POV characters and most of the rest of the cast being autistic. Which already not thinking about how much people hate Uglies means that I have to work so hard to make neurotypicals, who sadly will need to be at least somewhat involved in buying it for it to reach the intended autistic audience, understand these characters. How could this possibly work when they don't even give it the benefit of the doubt because all dystopias other than Hunger Games are bad, cringe girl shit?
Also the idea that being autistic is nothing bad and does not need to be cured is way to radical for Germany already, even without all of this...
Me and a friend had the idea to try to sell it as New Adult, not dystopia. And sure, this might give it the chance to prove it is good - but this novel is very blatantly a dystopia, I can't change the fact that it is a dystopia without overthrowing the entire plot and meaning, and everybody reading it will realize that it is a dystopia.
The smartest thing would be to just give up trying to publish this and regard it as a good writing exercise - but I put so much work and passion and pain into this, and I genuinely think this is an important story to tell.
I guess I will try to publish it in Germany as New Adult, and if that does not work I wait and translate it into English and try to publish it there in a few years when this passionate hate of YA dystopias died down.
Before the Uglies movie came out, I had three options of what to choose as my next novel project: A sequel to this novel, something that I could possibly have sold as sapphic sci-fi dark romance but that is actually a dystopia too, and a space opera idea I have since years but still have not come up with a better title than "Untitled Babylon 5 copycat" yet (it is in the process of developing an own identity right now, thank you for your concern).
Definitely will choose the space opera.
Though with my luck and with how slow I write, I am sure that by the time I am finished, sapphic, feminist space operas too will have become oversaturated and labeled as inherently bad, cringe girl shit. Except for Locked Tomb, which has no flaws and is treated as untouchable.
I am so fucking tired.

This post I'm gonna rambling about internal politics. You can scroll pass. No hard feeling. I just don't want to do it on my Facebook because it's gonna be drama for sure, some mutual friends don't like stuff like this and I'm lazy to pick names that I don't want them to see.
.
.
.
Well. Taylor Swift was about to tour on her Red album when I was in University. Me, as one of her fans, had saved my allowance for a ticket, since she has never come to my country. That was the first time.
But then, boooooooooooooom, fuckin coup d'état. 13th time since 1932; the year that my country changed the regime - from absolute monarchy to democracy. She cancled the tour.
Now 9 years after the coup d'état, finally the general election was holden, the left liberal party wins the election. The Prime Minister-to-be, from people's consensus (including me), comments on Taylor's twitter. He persuades her to come to my country for tour again. We, people, are with him. Because the shitty head nowaday and about to fall from power Prime Minister never does something like this, guess what? It (I don't see this garbage as human anymore) can't speak English! It has just known how to use Google! Claming that it can play Facebook. But I don't believe and buy this 'fact'. When porks' prices were raising, it told people to eat chicken instead! Sound familiar? Yeah. But it was on every tv chanels. We can strongly prove its word as real shit, more real than Marie Antoinette's which we might or might not know she was really saying it. And it also tells people to be thrifty, while it and its fellows have lunches at 5 stars hotels, just like Oscar Wilde's quote; "To recommend thrift to the poor is both grotesque and insulting. It is like advising a man who is starving to eat less."
Okay, let's get back to main subject. Our Prime Minister-to-be, from people's consensus, persuades Taylor Swift to come for concert in the country. We people do not oppose, since we haven't gone for the western artists' concerts for 9 years. But one ignorance and dictators' supporter who is happening to be an artist - 'modern folk for life' genre - opposes with hatred and narrow mind. His reason is uselesss so I'm not gonna type them here. The problem is not only he supports dictatorships, I used to admire him, listening to his songs which talking about what working people must face everyday. But now, he absolutely loses my respect. He finally shows his true colours. He is just 'acting'. He is rich and never live a hard and poverty life. So, who is he? This is not democratical opinion. He assaults the Prime Minister-to-be with irrational and illogical.
I should stop here before I roast another influencers and artists who support dictatorships. I used to spend half a day roasting them with my friends.
And in conclude, I just want my country developing forward. Not backward. If they wanna live in the 'beautiful past', just stop dragging almost entire people to go with you. We want good fucking lives and consist with present world.

poll CANCLED i realized while drawing francis' keychain that his ability name is TOO DAMN LONG in both english and japanese
heyo- finally cam up with an idea for a herman keychain! only issue is the text-
Tumblr media Tumblr media
on one hand, with english you can actually know what it says. on the other hand, japanese looks much nicer in this format.
whichever choice wins will also be consistent for any other potential bsd keychains that i might make

I think my biggest pet peeve when it comes to sims are badly translated mods or tools.
I don't mind it when creators have confusing file names or put their objects in the wrong category, but I draw the line at literal or misspelled translations that make the mods/tools almost unusable simply because none of the commands match the ones in-game.

BNHA AU Ideas: Bamn! And the kid is 4
Also on AO3! 
TL;DR:  Izuku gets hits by a de-aging quirk and it turns out hes always been super cute.
izuku gets hit w a de-aging quirk back to like,, age 5-8
angst + fluff + dads happens
izuku, iida, bakugo, kiri and all might are getting groceries
not a great team for shopping but its like, just post internship pre cultural festival so its no a disaster
all might is there to make sure they dont do something stupid or get lost. he was kinda hesitant to go with them because he cant protect them anymore but they are little heroes! so they should be ok, right?
w r o n g
the villain attacks katsuki just outside the store, the only one of them that doesnt have a licence, izuku takes a hit for him and he and iida quickly take the villain down while kiri protects the bystanders
then izuku collapses and bakugo is ready to yell because if izuku takes one more hit for someone hes going to be the hit
all might runs over because even though its still dangerous he has a hero license (bc it hasnt been cancled yet because no one wanted to be the person to do it) and thats his s o n. iida is calling the people he should be calling
all might finds just, this tiny tiny green freckly mess in izuku's oversize clothing and he wants to cuss up a storm because FUCk hes liKe 6
bakugo runs over because all might looks like hes going to cry and hes not ready for that today and he sees this horrifically familiar face. he he does swear.
izuku looks so lost but he sees bakugo and he lights up!!
"kacchan!! youre so tall wow!!! so coool!!!"
and bakugo is going to scream bc f u c k hes so annoying and adorable. bakugo tells izuku that he is normally his age but got hit with a quirk that made him small and hes!! so excited!!
hes rambling about how cool the quirk is and wondering how long it lasts and how it works and allmight is just shell shocked still
"young bakugo, should we tell his mother?"
",,, inko is in america chasing down her husband to divorce him. i dont think she needs this shit right now"
"understandable"
kiri comes over bc whats happening? and he shrieks a little and hugs izuku
izuku is very lost but hes giggling bc kacchan's cool friend likes him, so maybe kacchan likes him now! bakugo is like "fuck why do i feel emotions thats wack"
so iida, having just reported what happened and now on the phone to aizawa walks over to tell aizawa everyones status. he and sees izuku and goes dead silent
"iida?? iida whats wrong?"
",,, hes,,, so s m a l l "
"wAiT WhAt"
"like,,, shrunk?????????"
"no sensei like,,, hes 5"
just a loud "F UUCK" as aizawa hangs up to run over
ok but they are all awkwardly buying the food bc they really need to get food, tiny izuku or no
and so izuku is with bakugo and allmight while the others do the worlds fastest grocery run
and izuku asks all might "mr? is your quirk being really tall? because thats super cool if it is!!" and bakugo is dying because what the fuck does all might say to that
"no my boy, im actually quirkless!"
"oh,, sorry sir"
"why are you sorry?"
"i dont know, but thats what everyone says to me when i tell them so i think its bad?"
and he just mumbles
"kacchan said i could play with him again if i got my quirk but i never did. do i get my quirk now? is that why we have cool friends??!"
and bakugo is going to cry bc all might looks so sad and he cant deal with that
so iida and kiri have bought all the crap and they are waiting out from with this tiny bubbly kid who they have to hold hands with or he Will run off to go look at stuff
aizawa shows up in the school car (,,, driven by mic because he cant fucking drive) and izuku is like OH HI
and aizawa is like ",,, hello?"
and izuku sees mic too and he thinks for a few seconds
"are,,, you two the new heroes that just started? from that really cool sports festival!!! i heard you from my preschool!!"
and bakugo is cackling be he fucking remembers that
and aizawa is red and nods and mic is like TINY CHILD WHO ARE YOU because aizawa didnt tell him what was going on
izuku is like "hi im midoriya izuku! please call me izuku!!" and mic is crying bc??? baby boy??
so they get an update ab the villain, apparently the quirk lasts for 2 weeks and allmight is caught between happy bc Tiny and sad bc My Boy??? he says how long it lasts and katsuki groans loudly
"bakugo?"
'AUntIEs iN aMEricA For 3 WeEKs"
"shit"
in the car all might has to hold him because aizawa didnt think this through and there isnt a child seat, so izuku is playing with all mights fringe because its long enough to be in his face and allmight is cry bc its his boy!!!!
they are up front because iida and katsuki need to talk to aizawa about whatever is going down with izuku. kiri is just there for moral support honestly, he is still pretty lost
izuku is asking present mic all these questions about his quirk ands all might is legitimately impressed at the control mic has because h looks like hes 30 seconds from bursting into a screech of joy at this tiny boy but his voice is just a little louder than normal
mic is singing a song in english
and izuku says "thats a rude song! my mum said so!" in perfectly understandable English and katsuki l a u gh hs
"I WAS WAITING FOR HIM TO SLIP UP HAHA"
and mic, cackling bc hes worked it out had to pull over for a sec
all might is red because hes been swearing in english the whole time oops
aizawa is like "Um????? whats happening"
katsuki, through tears : this little shit has known english his whole life but he didnt want more english homework so he just pretended he didnt through middle school and forgot to admit he could when we started UA
izuku looks lost bc what did he do?? mic is saying sorry to this tiny child for singing a rude song, iida is ab to have a stroke
mic and izuku chat about mics quirk in english happily and they pull up to ua and izuku is like wAIT WHAT. bakugo is cringing bc howwww do they explain this
present mic and aizawa, 0 clue what going on "its UA. you go to school here."
"oh, did i get into gen ed? is that why kacchan is my friend again?!!"
"youre in the hero course with me, brat"
and izuku looks upset and aizawa is lost because what kid cries when they are told they get to be a hero
"dont be mean, its rude to lie"
"why would i lie?"
when izuku says hes quirkless bakugo and all might look like someone kicked them
aizawa is like "wait,, quirkless?" and izuku looks at him confused because evryone knows izuku is quirkless
"yeah,, i have the toe thing-y."
and the kids face crumples
"does this mean i cant go into UA now??"
mic picks up the kid before he can start to cry and says "of course not! i bet youd be a great hero, quirk or not!!"
aizawa and mic are giving all might and Bakugo a Look because they look so sheepish
kiri and iida are lost because izuku Very Much has a quirk, it explodes him
all might all but pushes everyone through the gate and aizawa and mic are just staring at him because they Know hes not spilling something
anyway, eri comes to visit!! bc izuku is small!!
she calls him deku and izuku looks sad bc kacchan only calls him deku when hes mad at him and izuku just whispers "you can call me izuku please?" and eri is like "YES IZUKU HI IM ERI HELLO"
izuku is very happy
hes still like, wearing a shirt dress basically so aizawa gets momo, who has a little quiet "HES SO SMALLL" scream in the cupboard, then pops out to make him a onesie. izuku asking if it can be allmight and momo is like “OF COURSE IT CAN YOU LITTLE MUNCHKIN ID DIE FOR YOU”

kiri wasnt warned he was the villain. he just has these kids yeeting on to him and hes so lost
all might and bakugo are trying to make a child sized dinner. they are working together bc if they pretend they are doing something important maybe aizawa wont kill them
aizawa is just,,, glaring at them. he hasnt moved from the corner of the kitchen. bakugo is getting nervous, all might is trying not to spit blood into the food
its like, 4pm? and izuku and eri are sleepy but they are Big Kids so they dont need to nap. all might and bakugo are trying to finish the food before they fall asleep bc god damn it they worked for this
aizawa is trying not to smile but they are so goddamn cute. izuku is cheering because they made katsudon
"kacchan how did you know this was my favourite!! youre so coooolllL!!!!"
bakugo, suddenly feeling crushing guilt: yeah,, im,,, awesome
aizawa is like, walking slowly towards all might and hes scrambling to think of something to spare him from his wrath
bakugo : OH YAGI WERENT YOU ALL MIGHTS SECRATARY

"eraserhead sir, when can i see my mum?"
aizawa, suddenly wishing he had kurogiri's quirk: ",,,,you seee"
ok but like, just for a little pain
"it'll be like a sleep over, ok kid?"
"you really want me to stay? most kids wont let me even play for a little while, so no one sleeps over. i can stay home without my mum if you want! i dont wanna bug you,,,"
aizawa, feeling a rush of fondness for this terrible child "no its ok, stay here. youre a good kid"
baby izuku clumsily braiding aizawas hair bc his mum taught him
consider: baby izuku and shinso
baby izuku is on a need to know basis bc there is a traitor somewhere. shinso is just minding his own business and runs into a giggling curly boy
and hes like ",,, who are you???"
"im izuku!!!"
shinso just looking at him and groans
"of course its you. its always you"
he picks up izuku and takes him to aiawa. izuku is patting his hair happily
"i found the gremlin"
"hi eraserhead!!!"
"thank god
izuku makes him help with his hero notes because he doesnt know kanji yet. izuku is just telling him what to do while shinso does as hes told, trying not to smile

Being an on and off couple with Fili would include:
Sorry for any mistakes English is not my first language :/ Warninungs: None -Since the beginning you was an one and off couple - So your relationship was very hard, No  matter if you was his girlfriend or not. You always had something to do together… - But when he noticed that something was wrong he was the first person who was there for you, as friend or as your boyfriend:“What happened this time, huh?” you heard the asking voice. “You know exactly what happened.” you meant and wiped your tears away. “The thing is you are special not all man can handle this.” he smiled when he sat beside you. “I can’t stand it to be just a thing that fills a gab for them.” you explained him. “For me you was never a gab filler.” he meant. “Fili, it’s not the right moment, but thank you.” you said to him and tried to smile. - After Fili find out who was the man that broke your heart or more you self-confidence, he was ready to stand up to him and to beat him up… - When you and the other dwarvs made the journey i wast nerve-rending between you two. Because you was always together, so you two fight often:“Why I should do this? I am not your girlfriend anymore, You can do it by yourself.” you meant a bit annoyed by Fili. “You did the same thing for Kili?” he asked blankly. “Yeah because he is nice to me and don’t constantly walk after me.” your voice become louder.  "When I wouldn’t walk after you, you would glide into danger…“ Fili confronted you more angry this time. "I am not 7 years old, I can protect myself, I don’t need you.” you groweld. “Please stay calm, it is nothing you have to figh-” Dori began his sentence to end up your fight. Together at the same time you and Fili shouted:“Shut up!” - After weeks were you two just fight up nearly all the time Thorin stepped in and made you two understand:“What is so difficult not to speak much to each other. Clarify this for all times, the rest and you both will be happier for it.” But Thorin knew it so well that his nephew had feelings for you, like always. - After his uncle walked away you both stand there and looked at each other a bit helpless.
Tumblr media
- “Ok maybe we should made a list what is not really good for our kind of realtionship while we travle to the Erebor?” you asked insecure. “I have no better idea. Good what is the first point?” he started but you could see he wasn’t really amused or maybe a bit sad about this… - After hours, you two try to make this list it was like the old times. You both laughed much and understood soo well. You made him remeber the old stories that happened before the journey. “Ok this point is there for it so I can’t rage anymore. To this topic you shouldn’t say anything, you know.” you pointed and said it while you looked in his eyes. - This short moment when none of you spoke he shortly whispered:“Forget this list…” And then he leaned in and kissed you so lovely he could. You didn’t turn away, you missed his kisses that was true you missed all of him. But you had the feeling not to be really ready to start this relationship again. You don’t wanedt it ended like the other times. - When Fili pulled away from you lips you could’ve cried. This made you feel so alive. He waited for a statement from you. Unsure you tried to find the right words, so that you not hurt him. “It’s just, just so difficult. We always know how it ends. And I am not sure if we could handle this. Or if I could handle this. You will always be my love, I can’t have another but you know it always ended up with a break-up.” - Fili was to shocked or more he had to do to realize what you’d said. Before you went to the group again you kissed him next to his mouth with both hands on his cheeks. You just walked a few steps than he answered you:“Maybe you’re right we shouldn’t act like children.” his voice sad but Fili tried to cover this with a funny undertune. - In the night when you couldn’t sleep and went a bit away just a few metres. His brother, Kili (aka your friend since your childhood) decided to look after you. “Anything ok?” he asked you. “He had tell you?” you asked him. But Kili shooked his head. “Fili does not talk much about it at least for the last weeks. It made him uncomfortable, to speak about this.” Kili reported you. You just sighted. You told him what happned in the early evaning. - He could understand you but you knew Kili would try anything that you change your opinion, it was his brother.  And you sighted again. “Can you remember when we all was 6 years old. Ok you was 5. He always wanted to marry you, and wanted the princess you played rescue. And when I told him before we ran to you I wanted to be the hero, Fili discussed so long ‘til I gave up.”   - Kili and you talked a lot but he couldn’t managed to change your mind. So the next weeks passed and you all was in Lake Town. Fili often stared at you and you noticed his sadness when he tried to look away when you caught him. - The day when you wanted to set out to the Lonley Mountain was one of the days you was frightend the most. Shortly before you wanted to step on the boat you could hear the argue between Fili and Thorin. You wouldn’t cancle the whole thing but afraid that you might never see him and his brother again you went back. “Just a short moment.” you yelled to the others. You hugged Kili so tight you could and then you stand bevore you ex- boyfriend. You just grabbed him by his head and kissed him. It was passionate and one of his hands laid against your cheek where he stroked the spot with his thumb. When it was time to pull away he said:“Don’t let yourself get killed.” - But on the boat you could listen to all the comments the dwarves had to say you:“So you and him again?”   “How often you was together? I had forgot to count.” “Leave that poor girl. Not that she jump into water because of your comments.” Thorin said but laughed and gave you a nod. - After the dragon was slayed and the Erebor was your home again. The other dwarves came after. There it was not like you acted like you were a couple but it was clear after all is done you was Fili’s princess again. - In the halls of gold he found a ring. A ring that reminded him on you. The gem stone shined to bright like you. But was so sharp like you when you fight. He put it in his pocket. He loved this imagination when you two would be married, since he was a small boy. - When the battle of the five armies stand before you hold his hand while all of you stand on the wall. Short after the moment Kili said to his uncle that he don’t want to hide anymore Fili asked you something. “Just wait a second, (Y/N).” and he gently grabbed your shoulder. “Made it quick, there is no time. I need my armor.” you said but stepped to him. He breathed in deeply and before he spoke out his sentence he knelt down. “Do you want to marry me? Of yourse when all is over and only when you want. I don’t want beset you, really. It’s just-”  he would’ve talk more and more if you wouldn’t stop him. “Yes. Just yes.” you whispered and took his hand so that he stand up. - You hugged him and he kissed you cheek while he put on the ring he had for you. “Come on, lovebirds. The marriage can wait, but the battle not.” you heard the voice of Bofur. - After the battle was over and nobody died from you, you and Fili made plans. And Bilbo should be the one who gave you the rings but when you heard he would go, you asked him politly if he could not wait only 'til the marriage is over. Although he was honored that you both choose him he said:“I really would like to do this honor but I need to go back to Bag end. But I am so glad you both are a couple now, a real couple. I whish the best for.” - Gandalf was the best man for you marriage. And although he didn’t hold an traditional speach it was good and funny. And all dwraves cheered when you was now wife and husband…

Eleanor & Park
Rainbow Rowell in an american author who has written books such as Eleanor & Park, Fangirl, and Carry On. She wrote Eleanor & Park in 2012. In 2013, Rowell was going to speak about her book in a public library in the Anoka-Hennepin school district in Minnesota, but it become quite controvercial due to its casual treatment of sexuality and use of offensive language such as Jesus, God, and Christ many times and her visit was cancled. However, critics believe her book is very good. NPR called it one of the best books of 2013, saying that Rowell was daring to address such real ugliness and pain.
There is not a large following for the book and the majority of the time fans use the quote “She never looked nice. She looked like art, and art wasn’t supposed to look nice; it was supposed to make you feel something.” It is hard to find another quote from it on tumblr. Granted, it was a very well written part but the more memorable portions for me were not the romantic but the otherwise emotional portions. Although, I also was drawn to the parts about music. One quote that really stuck with me was when Eleanor said “[she] could hear his accent, even when he was singing. He sounded like he was crying out.”
Frankly, I loved this book. It did not ever push my willing suspension of disbelief, I was onboard with the story up to the end. I believe that it was well-written, brave, and inspiring. I do think that it could be a viable option to teach in a young adult literature setting to bring up topics of bullying, race, gender inequality, and mental illness.
The only topic that I found many people did not agree with me on was that Eleanor’s mother really was doing what she could to help her children even though she seemed to be lacking in many ways. She did not have many marketable skills and her husband was creating a sort of relience on him so that she would be unable to leave. Also, Eleanor was going to be able to leave after school but her mother still had four kids to take care of and she could not abandon her only source of income. It is something that as children of middle to upper class parents the students in our english 345 class might not be able to fully understand.

Hello, I had the first day of school today, and moved into my friend’s place yesterday.  We had methods for 25 minutes and it was mostly our teacher telling us what he had been doing since 2015 because he used to teach the S.E.A.L class. We had physics which was really good, I knew more than I thought I did I had a free because my year 12 class was cancled and ended up hanging with two people from my computing class in the study centre while reading AutoBoyography (A really good book) And finally I had english, and have some how lost my book in the day I’ve been here. But it was good.
A lot less stressful than originally thought, but that might die when it comes to the coming days
