holy thundercrap!
isn’t this just one of the best engrish out there? it makes me crack up every time. lol thundercrap.
On website-related news, I updated two of my fanlistings. Now Clear Bell has got some sprites for linking back, as I noticed other webmasters like to link to their affiliates using these sprites. Scroll down the page to see them. Yeah I know this makes it look like it’s a Kris fanlisting but I really don’t know what other sprite could be Pokémon Crystal’s symbol, aside from the silhouette of Suicune running. Maybe those Suicune sprites from the opening?
I AM² got a big update, as I added some screenshots and made The Birth of Mewtwo available for downloading in both Japanese and English. I also wanted to upload a subbed Japanese version but couldn’t find the translated script anywhere. Anyway, the point is that while I was looking for that on the Internet I found a great piece of writing about Mewtwo and his connections to Frankenstein’s monster. Apparently, this was a university school project from 2007. Good stuff, really. Any Mewtwo fan should take a good read at this.
This also makes me think that I could write about the Pokémon phenomenon for my next exam. after all, the exam is about pop culture, and there’s nothing I know better than Pokémon in pop culture. yeah, I could really do that.
As for that anatomy exam, I didn’t pass it, and I’m still feeling shit for that. This may sound as making up an excuse but really, I didn’t deserve that. The teacher said my work was too theoretical and then that it was too complex and too simple and…yes, he’s been a total asshole. I made some stuff which looked exactly like on the anatomy book I used as a reference. What can I say, I’ll have to repeat that exam all over again just because of his inability of judgement. So I’m not really in the best mood lately. Not the worst but by any means not the best either.
Other than this, there were two more things that really pissed me off. First, the whole absence deal. See, attending classes in my school is obligatory, and if you miss too many lessons your marks will decrease no matter of how good you are. This is how it works in theory. Then this girl makes some awesome work for the exam and, though she had more absences than everyone else, she still got the maximum. I don’t want to question her ability because she fully deserved that mark; I’m questioning the teacher’s judgement, because some other people actually had their marks decreased for much less. Not fair at all. Also, it looked like the teacher already knew what marks he was going to give. I mean, he didn’t even look at one girl’s work. Is this some sort of a sick joke?
I really hope he’s the only teacher like that because if that’s not the case I may have to reconsider my school choices.
As you can imagine, the rest of the day utterly sucked for me as I couldn’t stop thinking about my failure and about what my parents would have said (though in the end they were a lot more supportive than what I would have expected). Also, on the same day I apparently forgot my favorite pencils while leaving the class. Nice.
I wouldn’t want to completely forget that day though.
On a brighter note, I was thinking about what to do with Blind Dreaming. I decided that the main site is going to have all the artwork and stuff; the collective is going to be linked in the main site but will also have its own name and layout, a bit like Plushies’ Rainbow for Angeltower Page. Good thing is that I may have some nice ideas for the name.
Anyway, my last post is still there for you to comment. You don’t have to comment on the latest post about the older ones, as Wordpress alerts me of any new comment in any post. What I’m really waiting for is Ellemme’s post, but I know you’re very busy lately, isn’t it? Take your time. :)
Artwork post later and sorry for writing too much.
Er… what does “crap” exactly mean? .__.
By the way, I’m really sorry… I have bad marks on Maths, this year, so I can understand you :( That’s because I make too many distraction mistakes (I love the term “absent-mindedness” <3)
Talking about something else… Yesterday I downloaded two very good add-ons for Mozilla :33
One is Moji, a kanji dictionary ( :DDDDD) and the other one is Sxipper, which saves all the nicknames and the passwords I use :D I think it’s really useful *__*

…cacca
yeah I’ve had bad marks in maths from primary to high school so I can understand you, but whereas I take full responsibility for my bad maths I still think I didn’t deserve that this time. I cannot scan those works (too big for my scanner), but I can assure you they were good and anyway there were other students who worked way less than me and got their 26/27.
About Firefox addons, I’ve got iMacros that saves for me my forms, so that every time I want to join a fanlisting I only have to press a button to fill out everything. Interface is a bit confusing but works just fine. Then I have stuff for webdesigners and Snaplinks that allows me to open multiple links by drawing a square around them but I think it doesn’t work in Firefox 3 (I’m still using the 2 because of a certain skin whose 3 version is a work in progress and I like anyway too much to change).

wow *__* *downloads*
By the way, I had good marks in Maths from the primary school and I didn’t get any bad mark until this year XD That’s strange, isn’t it? *hates equations and disequations*

there’s always a first time, they say
also, thank you very much for commenting so much here. sometimes I fear no one cares :(
dubiousdisc, December 18, 2008 - 10:59 pm
oh lol, I have to thank you, I discover many english words by simply talking to you XD
Stefano, the Absent-minded, December 18, 2008 - 11:09 pm
Nooo, Rosy :( I’m sure you had worked very hard for this exam…but what I can say you is: do what he wants to see…almost with him, so you’ll pass this exam…you know you know anatomy, so why lose more time? so you won’t see him anymore :3
Thundercrap…WTF X°D They’ve seen Zeus shitting, so it’s divine shit, it must cost a lot XD for example, your teacher may be crap of a thundercrap, but also not.
Maths…Stefano, don’t worry, I had bad marks when I was at your year, don’t worry, try only to concentrate more…it is very important because a simple error can make you do wrong all…have more faith in yourself :D I’ve always had good marks in maths except for that year but now I know where I was wrong…and take your time, don’t run too fast XD

Yeah the only problem is that I’ll have to redo this exam in
september.
DDDDD:
every single time I think of that picture I imagine a man saying “yeah bring here that thundercrap or whatever it’s called like” and this amuses me to no end for some reason. thundercrap is great, so my teacher is definitely not thundercrap. :(
dubiousdisc, December 19, 2008 - 8:26 pm
Aw man, that stinks about your exam. It was art anatomy, right (not biology anatomy)? I feel like in art, it is really easy for the teacher to pick favorites, and much harder to be objective than in other subjects. Well, because art isn’t really objective… so I guess it is easy for teachers to fall into bad habits like that. I’ve had teachers in the past who would also categorize good students and bad students very early on, and then it would be nearly impossible to change categories after the decision was made.
Don’t take it too hard, and just keep trying your best! I hope it will all work out!

Actually I said it’s CRAP of thunder crap XD
Deoxys, December 19, 2008 - 9:04 pm
Here I am :D
Awwwwwwwwwwww What a pity!ç_ç
I’m sorry for the exam, but I’m sure you’ll repair it at september and you’ll take the best mark ever(or something like this è_é)XD
I’m not good in maths too, but i really like the topic we’re doing now: Logica formale!(I’m not sure about the english name XD)It’s really interesting XD
LOL Thundercrap X°°DD
The sprites of the fainlist are fantastic :D!They’re really…Beautiful!Expecially the 3rd :DDDDD
Bye :D

Thank you very much, Denise. It’s always a pleasure having you here. And I should comment more on your artwork instead of lurking all the time…
Yes, it was art anatomy and how could I not agree with you. Well, I guess in the end I’ll manage to pass the exam anyway, but it still sucks that I have to wait a whole year to give it again.
While we’re at it, I hope you’ve seen a certain piece of artwork I’ve posted here before… :)
Deoxys: all this meta! D:
Blue: eh I don’t really think so but there’s always hope…
about maths: lol what are you talking about
anyway I’ve told you a thousand times: you don’t have to write in english :B
dubiousdisc, December 20, 2008 - 12:55 am
