WOHOOHOO! I signed up for the Toefl! Oh man, I was so worried it'd be too late - exam's on the 17th and I know they only let you register until 7 days before the date.
...OKAY, SO TODAY IS STILL THE 9TH, but-- what if they considered dates differently? What if this? What if that? What if that other thing? :O And so forth and so on. But seriously, if dad hadn't managed to fix the modem by tonight (and just tonight he did) I would have been in trouble :( ...okay, okay, maybe not exactly "trouble", there would have still been the 31st, but. You know.
OH WELL.
Ha! Ha! One more thing before I go to sleep! There's this story I read and that I fell in love with - it's called The Great Divide, the second part is here, and it's a Dark Tower fanfiction. (Incidentally, I STRONGLY recommend you read the 7th book first, if you haven't.) Oh, and it's awesome. In case you were, like, wondering or something. It's driven, it's intense - and in the days after I read it I found myself working hard to keep the fanfiction facts separate from the canon facts, it fit in so well. Ha ha, I am so not joking.
And I'm shitty enough that I haven't posted a review yet! Grah! Granted, I have hardly been online lately, but that's no excuse :( Okay, maybe it is. STILL. I've printed it out (only way for me to read anything with some ease, really), though, so at least I can take my time when I try to compose it. I'm telling you, it won't be easy - I felt so much of it acting so deep down, that putting it into words is going to take some work. ;)
