Eh, doing the 8 facts meme thingy because I was tagged by :iconantichange: ages ago and because meme thingies don't really go out of date. They do, but... they don't. So.

here's how to do it:
1] Post these rules.
2] Each tagged person should post 8 facts of themselves.
3] Tagged people should write a journal\blog about these facts.
4] In the end tag and name 8 people.
5] Go to their dA pages and comment saying that they are tagged.


HERE WE GOES:
1. I'm terrible at coming up with things about myself to say.
2. I'm stubborn, which means I can be good at nagging people when they have things they need to be doing. Except then I become worried that I'm starting to get on their nerves so I stop, aha.
3. To quote my brother, I'm so afraid of getting in trouble that I never do anything. This isn't completely true, but it sums up the way I am fairly well :'D
4. My internet life is a relatively secret one, since mum thinks forums and websites like this are dangerous. I planned not to hide it anymore once I turned 18, but that didn't happen. Sigh.
5. I drink lots of tea, like most of my family.
6. My real name is Jessica, and I have two middle names which I'm quite fond of :3
7. ...Ask just about anyone who has heard and they'll tell you I'm good at singing :'D
8. I don't like tagging people, for fear of annoying them by doing so, yet I'm always happy when I get tagged myself xD;

...I tag anyone who wants to be tagged.

As for actual journally stuff: University, guys! It. Is. Awesome. Though I've kind of gone back to being invisible for the most part xD; Don't really have any friends. But that's okay. For boring classes that I have to take as part of the Media Arts course, my classes are really interesting :3 I have one that's looking at communication in all these neat and interesting ways, then I have this other class which is looking at what makes persuading successful and stuff. The latter is kind of hard though, I don't really understand it much yet. Then there's Introduction to Digital Media, which is one of the subjects I have to do as part of my Animation major before I actually do any animating next year, which is... probably not going to teach me much xD But it's interesting, and fun. And then there's Japanese class, in which I'm learning nothiiiing, but still enjoying xD It's so good to be studying Japanese again <3 I forgot how much I love it. And it's really surprising how little I've forgotten considering I hadn't studied it at all in like 9 months xD Busing to and from Uni kinda sucks though Dx; Although I'm getting the hang of it, just as long as the bus actually -comes- :'D

And that's all I have to say because otherwise I'll ramble on like I do. Thanks for reading!

I'm totally in the same boat w/you in #4. >_< grawrg.

And I didn't expect you to be a Jessica! I dunno why ... you'll always be a Hikaru to me xD

I REALLY WANT TO GO TO COLLEGE. LIKE. NOW. A good portion of my friends are seniors, and let me tell you, senioritis is CATCHING D: (do you have senioritis in Australia? xD )

...You have the same first name as me! And I have two middle names also!

...YOU ARE OBVIOUSLY MY CLONE.

YEAH, OKAY, THIS IS WHY WE CAN'T HAVE NICE THINGS.
:iconthe-russian-gestapo:
a) I'm sure the Sherlock Holmes collection is awesome: sadly, my copy of the collected edition book was thrown away before I could read past A Scandal in Bohemia (i.e. the first story).
b)University is funny - if you don't befriend someone then someone will generally go out of their way to befriend you.
c) Your course sounds similar to mine, except for the Japanese classes. =p

We don't really... have seniors here xD; I've never quite understood the whole seniors and... what do you call em... sophomores? That kinda thing xD;
:iconantichange:
Ohh do you only have numbers for grades then? Like primary education is k-12? (You have kindergarden, right?) Lol. I've always wondered about schools in non-United States countries xD
For us, grades k-8 are just called kindergarden, 1st grade, 2nd grade, etc. Then its 9th grade = freshman, 10th grade = sophomore, 11th grade = junior (that's me!), 12th grade = senior. Then it repeats at a 4-year college xD

:iconhikarino:
o_o So you're a kindergartener for 9 years? Man... Your system sounds really confusing xD;;; But yeah, we just have numbers for grades. We have kindergarten, then you start Primary School which is R-7, then High school is 8-12.
:iconantichange:
Nuuuu! LOL. I mean, first its kindergarten, then 1st grade, then 2nd grade ... all the way up to 8th grade ;-; LOLIFAILEDATEXPLAINING xD

ohh and our high school is starting from 9th lol. We have 3 sections of school before college ... you guys have 2. Cool! Less moving around xD

Ahhh that's sad D: What I've read so far is really good, and it's really clever too.

I can only hope you're right xD

Interesting o-o What are you studying?
:iconthe-russian-gestapo:
I'm taking Web Design...which encompasses not only the design side (mainly based on traditional print design principles) but also implementation, some coding, user-centric design, user-testing, usability principles and some of the management-type stuff (Project Initiation Documents, client meetings, that sort of thing).

Oh, and we sometimes get to play around with Flash and Photoshop in the few-and-far between Media modules.
