  • My papers and projects are not getting fewer, so I'll take a break to finish all of them till the next term starts.
  • My Raspberry Pi arrived today. Such a cute little thing. I shall buy lots of pretty addons for it.
  • Just finished reading The Twelve and am now waiting for City of Mirrors to be released in 2015. I never thought that I could enjoy post-apocalyptic fiction but I simply love Cronin's writing style.
  • I really should write my essays immediately after I had the corresponding class. Now, I am stuck with five papers for which forgot almost all of the code. Yay for revising everything from scratch...
  • (Quote) Six languages sounds awesome. Here, we start with either English or Latin in 5th grade and get the one that we did not choose in 6th grade. In 8th grade, we can decide between Greek and French and in year 10, we can drop either …
  • The Greek classes at my college are usually quite huge because people who want to teach Latin have to take a Greek test. And since most of them did not have it at school, the demand for classes is high. But then again, they only take it because they…
  • The 8th graders I got to teach for one lesson were adorable and not scary at all. In fact, they were surprisingly well-mannered and seemed to enjoy the lesson (well, probably they were just happy that they got to work with computers and got no homew…
  • As soon as I put down The Passage, I simply had to buy its sequel The Twelve. It took me some time to get into the story when I started reading, but once you are inside, it's very gripping. I love how Cronin shifts from one POV [spoiler]while someti…
  • (Quote) Heh, I am cheering indeed even though I am not that much of a soccer fan. My only concern now is, that I might have no students in my class tomorrow. Will be teaching since I finally found some test objects volunteers to test th…
  • (Quote) In German, it would be 'Making an elephant out of a fly'.
  • If we make it to the finals, I think, I am going to watch that game.
  • (Quote) I chose not to watch the match because I am not a big soccer fan...now, I slightly regret that. My FB feed is totally spammed by 'YAY!' posts and in the rooms around me people are singing and screaming in Real World Raves Comment by Aerdiya July 2014
  • (Quote) I always have the problem that she's never in the mood for the lessons I want to teach her. But I love it nevertheless.

    I also got Dust: An Elysian Tail in the Summer Sale. It's quite cute and I love the graphics and …
  • The grade of my thesis finally got booked into the system. Yusss....my BA is complete now. I'll go to our administrative office later and fill out the application for the certificate. I wish we had graduation ceremonies here as well since I'd love t…
  • (Quote) Yeah, I was looking through player made stuff as well. I'll tell you if I find anything interesting. I put Dragonfall on my list now and it shall be played after I finish Dead Man's Switch. Looks awesome and yay for new characte…
  • Steam made me buy Shadowrun Returns. And despite not being a big fan of turn-based movement in combat and knowing nothing about the lore beforehand, I am totally enjoying it because of all the RP dialogues and the awesome story...and because I alway…
  • I am off for scout stuff again over the weekend (three weeks of intense heat without a drop of rain....and guess when it finally starts raining....when I am going camping <.<).
  • Slightly messed up my presentation because my code was a bit inelegant so I feared the worst...and got offered a job as a student assistant at the end of the lesson. Yes! Money!
  • I just started reading Justin Cronin's The Passage and a book about Java for class.
  • Raves to @Iorwen and @Zilias for intense family RP.
  • So I finally managed to get some pictures from my camera. There you go :)

    in UK meet! Comment by Aerdiya June 2014
  • This seems to be the week of sick animals and vet visits. First, Donnatella developed a tumor in her cheek that needed checking, and just now my roomies and I found an injured field mouse while taking out the trash. We took it to the vet clinic and …

    I really need to rewatch the IT Crowd :) Such wise words.
  • Sadly, Aerdiya has not met @Gabriella and does not know anything about her besides the fact that she is the mother of the Queen.

    She likes in Perceptions of Characters: Forums reloaded Comment by Aerdiya June 2014
  • Scout camp with anniversary turned out to be a success. The kids liked it and we got everybody home without any major injuries (well, we only had about 30 kids this time since most were on holidays with their parents).

    I am totally beat …
  • I'll be gone from today till Tuesday since my scout group has its 25th anniversary which we are celebrating with a little camp. And it's going to be about 86 °F all weekend. Yay for sun and camping!
  • (Quote) Aerdiya would like to become one as well. But she still has a long way to go. Most notably...learn what to actually do when it comes to a fight.

    Concerning crushes, she thinks that she is too busy to have one. Well, t…

    This is basically what I made at the meet. Healthier than potato chips and really really yumm…
  • Today, I passed my theoretical driving exam and got told that I can get student loans again soon. Means, I can use my own savings now to save for a car.
    Yessss!
