FAFSA completed!

[arkratirma]

WOO FINALLY. I'll hear back from them in three or four days.

Like Dad kept saying, it really is unnerving how many times they want you to give your SSN.

There was one really annoying thing about the FAFSA: it does NOT tell you that the federal school code(s) you need is(are) for what school(s) you MAY be attending. Here I was trying to find BR's school code, and only once I was almost done filling out the FAFSA did it tell me to find the code for the school I hope to attend, the Art Institute of Portland. Way to go for making that so clear, bastards.

I sent an e-mail to Melissa telling her the news, and thanked her again for all her help. I also asked her a question about the 'official copy' of my high school transcripts: do you need to pick up an extra copy from your school, or can you simply copy your transcripts with your copier?

Anyway, I do feel better about getting it in. NOW TO WORK ON PORTFOLIO SUBMISSIONS!

Yesterday, Dad and I headed up to GV and stopped by The Pet Mine to pick up some waxworms - 'candy' for bearded dragons and other reptiles, high in fat and only to be offered as treats. We noticed a young water dragon as we were talking to the girl picking out our waxworms: "He's free," she told us. Someone had dumped the poor guy into one of their cricket containers, probably unable to care for him, and he had a small notch in his upper lip. Dad said, "That's so tempting." He asked the two employers working around us if the water dragon could be housed with a bearded dragon; "No, water dragons are tropical." We wished the best for the little guy. I really hope he finds a good home.

Yeah, I can easily imagine how Mom would react to us getting another lizard, even if it was free like Draco was. Dad is glad he decided against getting a baby beardie from Jim.

Talked with Jason over Messenger last night - we discussed lots of plot-stuff for Brainsick. The Internet crapped out on me later on, and I could not reconnect. For a short time this morning, it was still not working.

GOD DAMN I NEED TO DRAW. And write.

Is this the real life-
Is this just fantasy-
Caught in a landslide-
No escape from reality-
Open your eyes
Look up to the skies and see-
Im just a poor boy,i need no sympathy-
Because Im easy come,easy go,
A little high,little low,
Anyway the wind blows,doesnt really matter to me,
To me

Mama,just killed a man,
Put a gun against his head,
Pulled my trigger,now hes dead,
Mama,life had just begun,
But now Ive gone and thrown it all away-
Mama ooo,
Didnt mean to make you cry-
If Im not back again this time tomorrow-
Carry on,carry on,as if nothing really matters-

Too late,my time has come,
Sends shivers down my spine-
Bodys aching all the time,
Goodbye everybody-Ive got to go-
Gotta leave you all behind and face the truth-
Mama ooo- (any way the wind blows)
I dont want to die,
I sometimes wish Id never been born at all-

I see a little silhouetto of a man,
Scaramouche,scaramouche will you do the fandango-
Thunderbolt and lightning-very very frightening me-
Galileo,galileo,
Galileo galileo
Galileo figaro-magnifico-
But Im just a poor boy and nobody loves me-
Hes just a poor boy from a poor family-
Spare him his life from this monstrosity-
Easy come easy go-,will you let me go-
Bismillah! no-,we will not let you go-let him go-
Bismillah! we will not let you go-let him go
Bismillah! we will not let you go-let me go
Will not let you go-let me go
Will not let you go let me go
No,no,no,no,no,no,no-
Mama mia,mama mia,mama mia let me go-
Beelzebub has a devil put aside for me,for me,for me-

So you think you can stone me and spit in my eye-
So you think you can love me and leave me to die-
Oh baby-cant do this to me baby-
Just gotta get out-just gotta get right outta here-

Nothing really matters,
Anyone can see,
Nothing really matters-,nothing really matters to me,

Any way the wind blows....

Classic song, nonetheless. XD
