I just got conscripted for the Japanese speech competition because apparently my essay was interesting, despite the many mistakes. This is actually pretty scary, but I think it could be scary in a good way.

I had a big plan to go into the Golden A Cafe and get my linguistics thing done after Japanese class. So I went. There were like, 3 people in the place, none of them sitting together. That makes it a bit hard to study a group conversation.

I'll try again in a few hours. I really want to get this done because I was really late with the last one.

Death Note anime ramblings. Cut for spoilers (for those who only know the manga, the anime is about halfway through, at the Yotsuba arc).

So, apparently Humber hasn't received my transcripts yet. I have no idea why, since I sent them to OCAS in January and they list them as having been received. At least I finally have a reason for the hold up, now that I'm talking to a different person.

I'm trying not to be worried about this, because it is getting to the point where the program starts in 2 months and I need to make sure that I've done everything I can to get in while still dealing with the schooling I have now.

Edit: Gah, this is frustrating. I called OCAS and first was told that they were not sent out because my high school transcripts were not sent in. This however seemed like a dumb reason so I called back and talked to someone else, who looked into records and saw that the transcripts had been sent but uh...apparently got lost.

So now I'm trying to find a place where OCAS could email Humber so they get the transcripts and I can move on with this application process but of course the two people who I have phone numbers for are not there so I don't have this yet but hopefully I will soon.

This application nightmare was supposed to be done in grade 12 ;_;

I got a fair amount of research done tonight so I think that I will be able to write a decent paper on kabuki and the Meiji Restoration in the next two nights. This is the plan, at any rate.

I didn't manage to get a hold of either of my two Humber contacts today, but I emailed the one woman so hopefully I hear back soon. I'll try calling tomorrow again unless I do hear back before then.

The week of DOOM is seeming more managable now. Maybe. I still have to look into a few things, mainly when my Canadian Women's Lit essay is due if I don't have it in the conference (I'm thinking I don't have time for that, especially now with this speech thing).
