In a totally unsurprising turn of events, a person that I thought was going to be my roommate -I spent 20 minutes talking to her mom on the phone basically making arrangements, I figured it was a done deal- bailed on me, and I'd already messed up some other roommate potentials, so that's great. I love how this always happens. I realize I need to just be firm and not look out for anyone but myself, but fuck it's really hard. Then again, maybe she read my email and thought I sounded horrible. So it's probably my fault.
In conclusion, I hate looking for roommates.
And asking for a raise went about as I expected. Which is to say, I got the exact same answer as last time, which involved the phrase "looking into it." Uh-huh.
But I did have a nice 4th of July involving friends and eatings and "Taboo." And I have my plane tickets to Otakon at last.
Here is a meme: List 10 of your favorite characters from different fandoms, and ask people to spot patterns in your choices, and if they're so inclined, to draw conclusions about you based on the patterns they've spotted.
1. Amelia Wil Tesla de Seyruun (Slayers)
2. Asuka Langley Sohryu (Evangelion)
3. May (Guilty Gear series)
4. Miroku (Inuyasha)
5. Makimachi Misao (Kenshin)
6. Alphonse Elric (FMA)
7. Hitachiin Hikaru (Ouran High School Host Club)
8. Robert Chase (House MD)
9. Alfred Borden (Prestige)
10. Aidan MacManus (Aidanverse)
I know I'm well aware of a pattern among several of them, especially if I tack Ingway from Odin Sphere on the list, but I'll see if anyone else bothers to notice. :F
