It's been a while!

I apologize for the lack of activity on all fronts. Classes had gotten hard to manage, I had to withdraw from one, which was very hard to do and was a huge blow to my pride. From a girl who used to struggle years and years ago who then vowed to get Bs and As, I wasn't doing so well (and couldn't pay proper attention to the class) and subsequently, I had to withdraw. I just couldn't do it.

& I've had issues with my family. There have been days where things have gone well and days where things just seem to explode: my mother's one of those deciding factors where depending on her mood, I'm either a good daughter or a horrible one who will get kicked out if I don't behave, or heaven forbid, show a backbone.

Which is the oddest thing, because I actually try to make her happy by doing the things I'm supposed to do, but alas, it doesn't always work. I'm hoping she can get the surgery she needs so that she isn't stressed out from being in pain, but we'll see...

I'd be lying if I said it didn't bother me- it does immensely and a LOT more than I care to elaborate- but I don't really want to reminiscence when I wanted to think of something more positive- like [watchers, if any of you live in MN & would like to know more head over to the dA and read!].

I just registered for the spring semester, and by jeez, it's going to be interesting. Still keeping to my traditional schedule but I could only manage to get three campus classes- the other two are online. Nyah.

I haven't really been thinking about cosplay at all- too exhausted. Even as I type I'm nodding off slightly, 'cause I need to take my contacts off and the low-lying light doesn't help. XD

I'm hoping that as the semester winds down, things will become less stressful and more light-hearted as the infectious cheer of the holiday season arises. There will be gift-giving and fun activities, and I'm hoping I get to see most of you soon at some point. I feel like a hermit. ಠ_ಠ

Peruvian alfahores are the most addictive cookies ever... no lie. Those things are like CRACK.

I don't have much more to say right now, but I hope you're all doing well. I think after I type one more email I'm going to drop off into dream land for a good eight hours (hopefully). Hugs to all and hope to hear from you soon!
