#college transfer

[fictionalnormalcy]

You know what I have to say swells me up with joy?

I’m a college transfer student. Spent four years in community college to get my ADT (Associate Degree and Transfer), and am taking a gap year before applying for transfer to in-state universities. I’m currently working a part-time job to try to gather money for university. 

And it’s been an agonising time awaiting college acceptances. I applied for seven schools, and from ends of December have been receiving notices. Acceptances all the way. But one still remains. That one their notice won’t be out until April 25th, this upcoming Tuesday. 

I even applied for financial aid too because well schools are expensive. Minimum starting at $10k and going as far up as $40k. My parents are supporting a large family, they’re not paying a cent. I dont’ expect them too either.

My mum and siblings are excited for me for having been accepted to these schools, and to an extent some of them are even offering to cover my full tuition and fees. 

But there’s no joy in telling my dad. Every notice of acceptance, no “oh I’m proud of you, I’m happy for you”, it’s “how are you going to pay for it? have you applied for financial aid?”

It just leads to those heavy breaths that eek out of my chest for a near minute.

Telling my discord friends tho, seeing how excited they get, saying they’re proud of me and they’re so happy I’ve made it this far, it makes me cry. 

I’m thankful for the friends and family in my life and the endless support. He’s just one negative voice, but ya girl is going to university. She gonna come into independence.

okay i’m trying to pick a college to transfer to so im gonna do a poll

college #1: about an hour and a half from home and about twice as expensive. it would get me so much more independence and immerse me in a good environment and give me that college experience i always thought id have. it also has the undergrad and masters programs i want. but it is farther from family and much more expensive with room and board.

college #2: close enough i could live at home and much cheaper. i would get less independence unless i got an apartment that i cant afford right now. it doesn’t have the masters program i want and im iffy about the undergrad program but it is a great school that is like a branch of the biggest university in my state. i would come out better financially for sure because i would be paying like half of what the other school would cost and i would be near my family.

Rewind the Timeline AU

Warning! Light bleeding

Author’s note : Here’s the partial design for the Rewind the Timeline AU! Bill Cipher, reborn a human, forced to survive alongside the Human civilization and on a mission to regain his strength and take over the world. He will be the main reason for anachronisms and the spike of vocabulary usage with words like “yeet”.

There are some gray areas in the timeline since Bill would be either hiding away from the human civilisation or not changing his aliases, but I will later finish drawing the missing designs which will fill some crucial spots in the story (e.g.: 1950s, when Bill will try to reclaim the name ‘Silas Birchtree’ after finding out that there was a human cult leader going by that moniker who had lots of devotees worshiping him in his triangle form.)

This is both the most and least “compatible with TBOB” story idea I had so far, although I haven’t read the book in question yet.

Here are two extra drawings :

left: Bill C. in Gravity falls, during the portal building operation, in blond. (I don’t know where his crack scar went , I guess I must’ve deleted it by accident)

right: William *Bill* C. in college during a party (ooooh boy, that guy will get drunk, hook up with Ford and have many regrets-> namely developing serious feelings for Stanford and seeing his plans of world conquest crash and burn)

— -x- —— -x- —— -x- —

Afterparty: (Bill dragged Ford to a party after they were done with their session, and partied a little too hard)

Bill, extremely tipsy, sitting on the bed with Ford: Si-*HIC* Sixer—lets do terrible things…anatomically, like humans do. I’ll let you calculate my angles with trigonometry—-

Ford, slightly less drunk: * stares at him blankly, slowly feeling his cheeks flame up* Wha—NO! Uh… maybe later ? When we both have a cleared head? How about instead—Oh, while we’re here, can I see your eyes? You never take off your sunglasses, so I’m curious about what they really look like—-

Bill, now blushing madly, clutches the sides of his face protectively: NO! I’ve-*HIC!* They look awful , I do-*HIC!*n’t think you’d like them…

Ford, leans in and carefully plucks Bill’s hands away, removing the glasses: * his eyes widen in surprise* Oh!

Bill: …Paint incident , I swallowed yellow paint as a kid.

Ford:…

Bill: Okay, okay!I-I got jaundice--

Ford: Bill—

Bill: *now panicking * AHAHA-It’s a birth defect, TOTALLY not a sign of being reborn as a demon in human form—(Internally: I’m a creature beyond human understanding, why do I need to answer to anyone? I look fine, my eyes are normal!) Ahhh, Sixer will you cut it out? Don’t look, dONT LOOK! * tries to pull his shirt over his face*

Ford: *looks at him in awe* But you’re so pretty, why hide them at all ? It’s like I’m looking at two stars- or suns- Wait, suns are stars. Or are they? They are, right? * scratches his head* Holy Moses, I should’ve not taken so much to drink, I don’t usually go to parties—

Bill: *turns completely red*… Give me ba-*HIC!* Back my glasses— *Pats the entirety of Standord’s face, retrieves his sunglasses from Ford’s hand and places them back onto his own nose, grumbling* You’re a stup— *HIC!* Hateyouformakingmefeelstuff.

also like i think calling the nypd on the columbia protesters was absolutely the wrong call for a multitude of reasons and i’m sure some of the protesters there are reasonable but you can’t deny that the ones chanting “go back to poland” may have made some jews feel unsafe.

Jace was totally a Hudol kid right?

He failed wizardry 101 three years in a row, he probably hooked up with your crush, ​he was voted most likely to be arrested on account of all the pranks he pulled around campus. He smokes cigarettes in the parking lot. He’s at the top of his sorcery classes and his name is on everyone’s lips, he’s Jace Stardiamond and if you don’t know him, then maybe you’re just not cool enough to.

By the time he’s a junior, everyone has an idea of who he is but when he’s alone with himself, he has a hard time deciding if he knows who he is. Every moment of his life he’s been told the whos, whats and whys and he feels trapped inside of the labels and high standards so he takes comfort in the unknown.

For once he finally feels in tune with his magic. He doesn’t need to know where it comes from when it comes to him as easy as breathing. He still has such a keen eye for it, though. He approaches sorcery with such a precision and resolve that leaves people in awe of him, the attention doesn’t hurt either.

He always admired that quality in the wizards surrounding him, there’s no reason he can’t borrow that kind of self discipline for himself if it leads to better self discovery.

Still, he can’t take the way his old wizardry textbooks mock him from where they live on his bookshelf. He finds a home for them far at the top of his closet and doesn’t look back.

-

Is2g the way he told Adaine he couldn’t take a level of wizard, “I tried.” And then him saying he always thought wizards were a bit stinky has haunted me since the finale aired. That man has a deep vendetta associated with wizardry, you just know it. That shit haunts him.

truly the modern au that preserves most directly the Impact of orufrey is:

Olruggio and Qifrey are married, and Oru mostly gets referred to by Qifrey as ‘my husband’ while Qifrey is at work. Qifrey is an untenured physics professor at some out of the way college.

Qifrey does tend to be the sort of professor who’s fun, but wants to pretend that his personal life doesn’t exist while at work. All his students know is that ‘my husband’ does his IT. Slowly by things Qifrey mentions his students learn that ‘my husband’ is also a night owl, also has a physics degree, and likes to cook.

And then Qifrey attends a department social with the man who Won the Nobel prize three years ago for revolutionizing the combustion engine. Olruggio spends the whole night referring to himself as ‘Qifrey’s trophy husband’. He has been on at least one variety show (he hated it).

Qifrey, three glasses of wine in, mentions they got engaged after he was almost thrown out of his phd program on charges of academic dishonesty, but his advisor, Beldaruit (credited with 1/3 of fixing the standard model to incorporate massive neutrinos) came through. The charges were false, and the investigation toppled a fraternity.

Coco, a freshman, studying physics bc she’s obsessed with being an astronaut, doesn’t know who any of these people are because she doesn’t follow engineering news and doesn’t know enough physics to care about massive neutrinos.
