Catching up

[polychrome_pen]

So I've been pretty notably absent for the last couple of weeks, which is so sad. What can I say? School is already pressing down on me like a two ton walrus. XD

So, updates!

SCHOOL: Hard, yet boring, with a sleep-deprived aftertaste. It's kind of sick when I think that Pharmacy Law might be my most interesting class right now. Though Toxicology is pretty awesome. Poisons!
General Pharmaceutical Care and Renal/Respiratory Care are both hampered by boring-as-dirt teachers, during classes that COULD be interesting into a fight against somnolence.

But we pick Rotations sites in a week. I have number 80 out of 230, so I kind of lucked out, and am hoping I can get my #1 choice. :)

CHOIR: Back in session! We have a new director for the remainder of the season, which I'm really grateful for. What's really weird is that he was our old director's music teacher back in Venezuela. Oh, small world. But I'm really glad I'll at least be able to sing until I leave for Rotations.

PIANO: Chugging along. Still don't get to practice often enough.

READING: Peter and the Starcatchers is the current book, and very fun so far. I'm excited to see how it turns out! But it's definitely not fun to limit myself to about 20 pages a night - makes me feel like I'll never get through it. D:

WATCHING: Outlaw Star and Angel Links. I can't express how much I enjoyed these two anime series. I feel like it's been a long time since I've had such fun watching anime. Maybe it helps that they're, like, 10+ years old. XD Oh me and my nostalgia. To think that series I passed over when they were new are now like unmined gems waiting to be discovered! I think I'm going to be on an old anime kick for a bit now. :)

RANDOM: I'm so excited - I finally ordered more Italian Winx dolls! My Brandon has been lonely for some time now, so I ordered Sky, Stella, Bloom, and Flora. Sky, Stella, and Bloom were all from Tons of Toys, and Flora was from Ebay. All together, the bill came to $191, which was kind of on the pricey side, but on the flip side they're all getting harder to find, so it was better to not wait. :D So excited!

I'm glad you enjoyed the Shaharyar plotline! :)

I'd like to do a review of them for the Winx community when they all arrive, if that's all right.

Even though I like the Mattel dolls, I think I've really fallen for the Italians (Heh. Probably because they made a Brandon!). It also surprises me that you can get an Italian Musa or Tecna cheaper than the equivalent Mattel ones now on ebay.

Oh, any doll reviews are awesome. I always encourage them, since they're so few and far between these days.

Do you like your new status? ;)

I was so surprised - it came out of the blue!

What exactly are my duties as a maintainer? I'd like to perform them well! :)

There really aren't any. If someone breaks one of the rules, you can warn them. They get two strikes before being banned, unless it's a really serious issue. Then they're just gone.

You'll probably get the "new member request" emails, but I usually do the new member admittance, because I have a few of the banned member IPs memorized. They're floating around in winx_mods, which you should join. If you want to read the past entries and write down the IPs, then you can admit people, too. I just don't like the idea of some banned members sneaking back in, so I try to avoid it. Some have created new IDs and tried to get readmitted, but I've always caught them. :)

Seen it. :)
