Blah blah blah, LJ wank, ambition at last

[soc_puppet]

Ahahahah. Suddenly stumbled on more free time today than I thought I had, mostly due to my occasional calenderic dyslexia. Appointment with Christine is next Wednesday, not this one ¦D;

Well. Apparently more sh1t happened after I went home last night. Better late than never, I guess.

As I left the lab last night, I contemplated making a long essay of an entry comparing what LiveJournal has become to the collective metaphorical homophobic/racist grandmother figure - but then I thought better of it, as it could well be Seen and Misinterpreted. (BTW, mine's a homophobic uncle rather than a grandmother.)

I would like to take a brief moment to say: amen to this.

Instead of such depressing topics though, I would like to cover a revelation I had today: I want to be a professor of anime.

For the first time in at least six years, if not my entire life, I have direction. I have ambition. I have a goal and a starting point, and even if it doesn't get me where I'm going, it'll damn well get me somewhere fun.

First steps:
Consider fall class schedule. Dump all non-required classes (except maybe first aid), go for classes in theory of literature, art appreciation, Japanese, and Japanese culture.

You were not the only one to feel the temptation to write a very long and sarcastic essay about how much you despise LJ.

But I've finally decided it was useless, after all, no one with a bit of commun sense would aprove them and saying what have already been said an infinite number of time is just wasting his time.^^;

...

You have a goal?

...

(sigh)

You're lucky, you know that?Xp
(dies of envy)
But hey, I still hope you will reach your goal, one day. Good luck.^__^

It's not so much that I hate my homophobic uncle as I hate the fact that he's homophobic, and my mom loves him so I don't want to hurt her, and he's going to be there at family gatherings and I don't want to make trouble there, so I have to put up with what I don't like.

I like to think that I have Learned My Lesson about Speaking and Being Heard, but this is likely not the case ¦D;



Oh God do I ever know I'm lucky. I'd been envying and looking up to my little brother, who had/has far more drive than I do, for the past number of years, and now I finally have something to aim for. I want to say that it's like "breathing again", but I use that as a comparison for too many things already XD

I'll be working on it! *determined pose*
