At which do you most can't the least?
I'll try to keep this short as I seem to have a pension for writing long journals.
I was extremely busy last week. I have finals starting this Friday, I had a research paper for my ecology class to write, which included visiting a nearby national park for part of the paper. I also had a test and a quiz. On top of all of that I managed to make it to three furmeets in one week.
My first final is this Friday, and I my last one is on Thursday the seventeenth. After that I am completely done for the semester. I am looking forward to a break.
I printed out a strip from my favorite webcomic and gave it to my chemistry teacher. I figured that she would appreciate it, and she found it very funny. The comic is called XKCD (www.XKCD.com), and it is written by a physicist who used to be a contractor for NASA, so as you can imagine, a lot of the humor is college level, but there are strips that anyone can appreciate. Here is the strip that I gave to my teacher: http://xkcd.com/242/, here is one of the handful of strips dealing with furries: http://xkcd.com/629/ and here is a good, non-technical one: http://xkcd.com/616/
After seeing Gene Hoglan play drums live in Dethklok (although it wasn't the first time) I have been inspired to pick up the drums. A full drum kit is not feasible at the moment, but I have gotten a small pad on which to practice.
This has been a long time coming, but a while ago I decided to pick a new species for my fursona. I have two major problems with foxes that I didn't foresee when I originally chose it, so I decided to change. After a lot of thinking I found a species with which I am happy. I have some commissions on the way from
NayNay and when they are up I will announce the species, although several of you already know what it is.
I just received the new issue of my favorite magazine (Guitar World) in the mail, and my favorite guitarist and hero (he is my hero for reasons other than his music) is on the cover, with a good amount of space inside the magazine dedicated to him. One of his songs, "A New Level" was transcribed inside. His name is Darrell Lance Abbott (colloquially known as "Dimebag").
So much for keeping it short...
EDIT: I have shortened it a bit, and I may go back through and shorten it some more.

I look forward to seeing your art final!
That sounds like a very interesting class.
