November

is here already!

Time has flown by a lot faster than I expected it to. It has probably been because I’ve kept so busy. Also overall I’ve been feeling better by the day.

The last weekend of October was a grandmum weekend. As a bit of a surprise both my grandmums came over to get new phones. They both had the same lumia phone before and now they have Honor 8 lites like me so that I can provide tech support. (For clarification again, I call my mum’s mum grandmum, and my dad’s mum by her first name because we aren’t that close. So when I talk about granmum it’s my mum’s mum.)

So I spent Saturday and Sunday recording more poetry with grandmum and she stayed the night at my place. It was supposed to be my laundry weekend but spending time with granny was much more special. We did some re-recordings for our poetry project together and went over stuff on her new phone. On Sunday we went to have dinner with mum and dad before granny drove back home and I went to teach my classes. I truly enjoyed work, we started rehearsing Christmas shows with both groups and everybody had a fun time. I wish work could be that much fun every time. Unfortunately I missed most of Mischacrossing’s ACNL Halloween stream because of daylight savings, which was upsetting.

On Monday I worked on finishing up the main body of text in my thesis. It really blows my mind how I could just submit my MA thesis for pre-grading now if I had no standards. Like it’s all written out now, all 95 pages of it. I can’t believe I did it. Now all that’s left is adding some more sources and researching more context for some of the people that I write about. Anything that I manage to add now is going to be extra, and it’ll lessen my workload for next spring after the pre-grading feedback comes in. I’m pretty sure my thesis would already pass though, so if the worst comes to pass and for some reason I can’t do anything to it anymore at least I can submit it for some kind of a grade already. Still, I aim to make it a good one so that in case I ever feel like going back to school for a PHD I have that door open for me. It has been a year since I started the process but somehow it feels like I’ve completed it without noticing. It’s a weird and surreal feeling, and also a bit scary because that means graduation and being on my own again.. Anyway for the rest of Monday I went to a meeting regarding the future of the Children’s university, and to the office to do work after that. In the evening I did JLPT stuff.

On Tuesday me and my friend had our fun little ACNL Halloween sleepover. I had until 5pm to work on my thesis and JLPT stuff before we met up at the grocery store to get frozen pizzas and chocolate. At 6pm we started working through the Halloween event. After collecting all the stuff and getting all the tricks and treats we watched Rocky Horror Picture Show and Mamma Mia together. Then we went to bed. Such a special Halloween.♥

On Wednesday I studied JLPT with a friend, read a book for my thesis and did some more JLPT stuff. In the evening another friend came over to sew on the laces for her new pointe shoes. I managed to find a way to get DMC4 to work on my PC, which made me happier than a lot of things have lately. The CD version apparently has some old DX files on it so installing from the CD doesn’t work anymore. However some kind soul on the Steam community had found out that if you install the demo version of the game which has the updated files first, and then copy-paste everything aside from the directX folder from the CD and install the full version it would force the game to install using the new updated files. And it worked like a charm! I played through the first couple of missions and for the rest of the night we watched The Sims 4 videos together. My friend also played through a bit of Persona 5 before we went to bed.

On Thursday morning I read my last physical actual thesis book that isn’t an e-book, and took care of some work business before my friend woke up. We spent the day playing some more DMC4, and I tried to get back to DMC5 for the first time since highschool probably. It was a lot of fun since I left it at a boss fight and had no idea what the controls were anymore, but we figured it out and it was a good laugh. I love the DMC games and I’ve missed them. In the evening my apartment complex had a meeting where we decided to continue the process of building a new house on our backyard. Out of 11k votes we had 7k present and out of those 6k voted for the continuation of the project - so yay for that! There were arguments for nature and the preservation of our backyard but honestly the monetary benefit from selling the right to build on our backyard is going to be so great it can’t be ignored. Also, we get a much nicer backyard with actual greenery and plants and recreational stuff in the new plan so... Yes, we lose a few pine trees and an area for drug abusers to hang out and dogs to poop on but in return we get a nice and maintained backyard in stead of a concrete parking lot. Anyway after the meeting I came home to watch some JLPT videos and chill out on the sofa.

On Friday I had another JLPT study date, after which I did some planning for next week and worked on my JLPT vocabulary. Then I had ballet from 4 to 6pm. Luckily I had mum’s car because she had to go to a two day training so I got to drive to ballet and back. After showering and eating I helped my friend out with Gracie’s fashion check in ACNL and spent about 5 hours in total watching Sims 4 videos again. I guess it was really needed. I’ve also been watching a lot of Miraculous Ladybug lately now that season 2 started airing. I’ve watched the entire first season and the first 3 episodes of season 2. Again, harmless cute fun that keeps my mind off other stuff.

Yesterday was a cleanup day. I did two loads of laundry an finally got the rest of my guy’s remaining clothes and his duvet+pillows washed. Also I emptied out all of my laundry basket, which felt damn good. Finally. The damn thing was bursting at the seams. I also dusted, vacuumed, washed the bathroom and went to the store to restock on carrots for the bunny and something to cook with for next week. Then I put up a moderate amount of Christmas decor as I swapped out my Halloween stuff. I also put up my Christmas lights. The tree isn’t going up until the end of November but at least I have something set up now. I picked mum up from the train station at 4:40pm and folded some laundry before going to our music video choreo rehearsal at 6pm. I got out at 8:30pm -ish, and came back to shower, eat, watch Grease 2 and iron out some clothes and towels etc.

This Sunday morning has been great. I love sleeping in and making some special breakfast that I can eat in front of the TV. Today I made banana and blueberry pancakes. Now I’m over here blogging and thinking about what to do with the rest of my day before I have to go to work. I really want to play DAI or MEA but until my payday on the 15th I can’t afford to order the new PSU, so in reality I won’t be playing those games until the end of November depending on how long it takes for me to get the thing and swap it. I’m just praying to everything that it works... It would be so much fun to spend Christmas break stress free and with video games.. For now I might just play some Stardew Valley for a few hours, then eat and go to work.. Hopefully I can get to today’s Mischastream with more success than last week.

I’ve got 6 weeks until Christmas break and 4 weeks until the JLPT exam... Yikes.
