I've had to put my Camp NaNoWriMo project to rest for a while. I've had to work extra hours at my job for the past few weeks, so I've been really, really burned out. (Hence the reason I've been skipping out on STO too...I'm just too tired.)
In other news, I might be going back to sewing costumes! Since I work at a fabrics store, there's always a sale on sewing patterns going on, but I'm going to wait until a specific brand goes back on sale before I buy anything. Yes, I'm picky that way. I've abandoned my Vulcan robes because they got soaked and mildewy when my apartment flooded out last summer, so I had to throw them out. I'm going to start on a fresh set of them--in a different set of colors and materials too, since I now know which material is used for costuming and which is used for quilting (I accidentally purchased quilting cloth for the outer layer, and it didn't match the sleeve length of the inner layer). The best part of all of this is that I get an employee discount on my purchases. Cha-ching.

I've been taking a break from DA for a while. A little too long, actually, since I've been busy with a full time job and grad school 2.0. Yes, I have finally returned to grad school after a two-year long battle with depression, and this time, I believe I will succeed and get that Master's degree I've been pursuing for far too long. I'm only going to school part time, as I have a full time job that takes up most of my life now. (I guess if you listen to Huey Lewis & The News's "Hip to be Square", the lyrics pretty much sum up what's been going on in my life ^^; )
In the meantime, I've been spending most of my internetz time on Tumblr (my

Whoa nelly
Post-college adulthood has hit me full force over the past two weeks. I've moved back in with my parents for the time being, and I'm working a temporary full-time job until I land one that's not temporary. I'm planning on starting school again in the summer at a different institution, because the school I left is unwilling to help me reverse my problem. I'd go on a rant about disablist discrimination, but I won't go there. Word from the wise, DON'T EVER EVER EVER GO TO GRADUATE SCHOOL FULL TIME. IT WILL KILL YOU. Just one or two classes a semester is all you need. Any more than that and you're just asking for a death wish. In the meantime I
I'm not dead.
Just haven't had much to do here, that's all. ANYWAYS, here's a little update on what I've been up to:
I'm taking a break from graduate school for a little while longer. I'll be attempting to apply to other schools for the following Fall semester, but for right now, I need to take my mind off it. After all the crap I've been through battling depression and dealing with trying to fix my academic problems, I need some time away from it. I'm not going to rant about it further, because it's only going to upset me; I've been having a great day today, and I don't want to ruin it.
I spent the past weekend in Boston with a friend from my undergrad
