From the desk of
While I was obsessively searching through jet pens for cool stationary products - I realized school is a month or two away.
So I checked out the Prepare for your Classes tab at University of the People to begin my coursework in Computer Science. I downloaded the books and saved the course resources links and read through all the syllabi.

Course Overview
This 3-credit course provides an interdisciplinary introduction to the core concepts of differential calculus, covering a wide range of topics. Content includes both applications and theory of differential calculus leading to an introduction of The Fundamental Theorem of Calculus. Learners will continue to refine independent study skills, problem-solving, logically correct and mathematically precise writing and thinking, and their ability to use geometric, symbolic and analytic formats in presenting solutions to both abstract and real world applications.

So excited!
Also, this...
£10k - £15k in 3-6 years @ 15-30hrs/week.
Now what? Besides needing some more notebooks I am trying to decide between a digital or analog note taking system. One costs $800 bucks but will be higher quality with a slight learning curve - iPad Air and Pencil and a note taking app (probably Notability)
Here. Read. Learn.
And a second article:
I’ve read about the differences between IPad Air and Pro for note taking and Meh.
I like the latest IPad ($349) or the Latest iPad Air ($549). Choosing between the Apple Pencil 1 ($99) or Apple Pencil 2 ($129) isn’t the biggest deal breaker either.
Apple support is about $3.50 per month until you turn it off so... yeah.
The cost is similar for the IPad case. Not bad, but that’s a LOT of Notebooks, Washi Tapes, and Pens!
For about the cost of an iPad Air bundle, I can purchase ALL OF THE stationary supplies AND a better digital camera AND a few months of unlimited data for my modem.
So you know.
In regards to Content? Both options?
AND new pretty furniture AND gaming system (XBOX) AND TV (LG) AND a streaming device AND you know - costumes?
Livestreamer blues.
Mics and stuff aren’t cheap man. Neither are cameras and elgato devices (effect box, cam link, game link). Boo!
The desire for moody dark academia study blr and pagan influenced live stream aesthetics aside...
IBM offers Professional Certificates Coursera in Data Analytics & Science for $40 a month or $400 per year!
Don’t believe me? Look!
Ka-pow!!
Until next time... I’ll be perusing digital camera and lighting kits... really I’m going to start my coursework. Maybe after dinner and a nap. Maybe.
i got a C in maths then and was pissed
feel this anger, darling? preserve it. keep it. never let it go. give it a room inside your heart. make it part of your soul. bury it deep inside of yourself and never show it to anyone. it's your secret. It's what keeps you going. it's your dearest friend and your worst enemy. keep being angry. keep standing up for yourself. steal everyone's anger. it is yours now.
welp I slept last night but hey!
I SLEPT ALMOST 8 HOURS OMGG
1/100
ugh didn't do that much, or at least not as much as I would have wanted to.
I went to school for the extra maths classes, then came home and solved quite a lot of maths problems, and then went to maths tutoring. I arrived home at 7 pm, it is almost 11 pm and I have been procrastinating since. I will try and study a little for Romanian tonight, cause there are some concepts I really need to understand.
I'll eventually reblog tomorrow with what I managed to do tonight!!!
Just fell in love with the girl next door, old childhood friend, I don't know her name and she doesn't know about my existence. She has a dog and we always randomly met during early morning.

Here ye here ye Mechs fandom! Come get your Nastya wallpapers! Nastya wallpapers right here! Step right up and simp over the fictional space lesbian!
Supernatural destroyed me and Good Omens gave me a new reason to live.
the common french negation with ne/pas is used to contradict or deny a statement. today we will learn more ways to express this, using words other than “pas.”
note : in spoken french, the ne is usually dropped, but i will include it in these examples.
ne… jamais : never, not ever example: je ne suis pas triste means i am not sad, while je ne suis jamais triste means i am never sad.
ne… rien : nothing, not anything example: je n’ai pas de livre means i don’t have any books, while je n’ai rien means i don’t have anything.
ne… personne : nobody, no one, not anyone example: je ne parle pas means i don’t speak, while je ne parle à personne means i don’t speak to anyone.
ne… plus : not anymore, no longer example: je ne travaille pas means i am not woking, while je ne travaille plus means i am no longer working.
ne… que : only example: il ne voit pas les lions means he doesn’t see the lions, while il ne voit que les lions means he only sees the lions.
ne… pas encore : not yet example: il n’est pas arrivé means he has not arrived, while il n'est pas encore arrivé means he has not arrived yet.
ne… pas du tout : at all example: je n’ai pas faim means i am not hungry, while je n’ai pas du tout faim means i am not hungry at all.
ne… ni : neither, nor example: il ne voit ni les lions, ni les tigres means he sees neither the lions nor the tigers.
the odd ones, personne and rien
ce matin, madeleine ne veut voir personne means this morning, madeleine doesn’t want to see anybody.
il ne veut parler à personne means he does not want to talk to anybody.
elle ne pense à rien means she is not thinking about anything.
alright, french lesson over! let me know if i need to change anything or if you have questions. merci d'avoir lu ce texte ☺
I am humbly asking the fandom and older fans for entries on this iceberg because it really bugs me that there is so so much lore and even easter eggs thrown around the internet yet to be brought together to light
Perhaps this is a Hot Take™, but as a queer person old enough to have very little formative concept of Representation In Mass Media, especially beyond queer-coded villains and the occasional Butt of The Joke (looking at you, the 90s & early 2000s), I cannot begin to see how people who are part of the LGBT+ community don’t see how deeply in love Crowley & Aziraphale are.
This is only compounded, I think, by my being an adult well past the Terrible Uncertainty of Puberty and Adolescent Feelings. That’s not to diminish the impact and potential depth of falling for someone as a kid/teen/young adult of the near-18, pre-drinking-in-America-legally persuasion; rather, that is merely to say that all this talk of “but they didn’t kiss or outright say I Love You, therefore It’s Not Canon” feels like it completely oversimplifies and wraps in far too tiny a box the matter of love, especially between queer folk. It simply overlooks how much of love is so much more than that easily wrapped box.
