Week 6 voting

[.livejournal.com]

Oh man! I forgot to share the voting link.

We are completely on Dreamwidth, even though I post my entries here.

Anyway, I have 2 strikes: 1 was intentional and the other was due to having low vote.

I currently have 2 votes, so I'm likely to get my 3rd strike and be eliminated. 🤷🏾‍♀️

It was fun while it lasted. Please vote for me. Poll closes on Tuesday

Lone time no post!

First off! I totally made up for the BOMBED first exam in my calculus class! The professor offered a measly 10 points extra credit if we re-did the exam. Okay. I did the extra credit and moved my points from 39 to 49. It's still failing. HOWEVER! On Tuesday we had our second exam. 13 questions and a flat 2 hours. No extension. I was anxious all weekend about that. I was also hoping for at least 75 points. Nah, man! I ACED THAT SUCKER! 100/100! Excuse me, what?! I've been checking the class website because I'm convinced it's a mistake and I really got between 75-95 points. The next exam is later this month, and then the final is June 9th.

Also, I spoke with a completion counselor about why I got the email for the fall semester when this is supposed to be my last semester before transferring and she said that e-mail is sent to all students, but she could understand why I would be worried.

She also checked about why there was no "movement" on my graduation (the status hadn't changed from when I submitted it in January/February)...which led to her checking my transcripts to see if that was why my application hadn't been processed.

Apparently, because I hadn't applied to any universities to transfer to, they process the applications of students who had already applied to universities. But she was going to email them for confirmation, and then once she heard back, she was going to email me with her findings.

Either way, I'm still on track to graduate in June/transfer once I apply (looking at ASU, Cal State LA, and Washington University in St. Louis).

She asked me if I was going to participate in the commencement ceremony in June. I said that I wasn't sure as I have a final that day and the professor requires students to be present with their cameras on during exams. I also told her that I was going to ask him if the final was still going to be on June 9 and whether an exception can be made for me. But honestly, I still don't know if I want to participate in the ceremony. It will be another AS degree and I'd rather just wait for the big university graduation with my bachelor's (or master's if I do both at the same time) in a few years.

Incorrect Dé Luain

Hi ho, everyone. It's me classics_lover the frog your host the next two weeks and today's theme is Incorrect Quotes. Prompts are to be quotes from one fandom used for another. Maybe Daine of Tortall talks about life finding a way, or Tony Stark has to say Make it So. As long as the quote is from another fandom, they can be used for comedy, fluff, darkfic, whatever floats your boat.

Just a few rules:
No more than five prompts in a row.
No more than three prompts in the same fandom.
Use the character's full names and fandom's full name for ease adding to the Lonely Prompts spreadsheet.
No spoilers in prompts for a month after airing, or use the spoiler cut option found here.
If your fill contains spoilers, warn and leave plenty of space, or use the above mentioned spoiler cut.

Prompts should be formatted as follows: [Use the character's full names and fandom's full name]
Fandom, Character +/ Character, Prompt

Some examples to get the ball rolling...

+ Star Trek (any TV), any + any doctor, "I input your symptoms in the computer and it says you might have network connectivity problems." (Parks & Rec)

+ Good Omens, author's choice, "Not today, Satan. Not today!" (RuPaul's Drag Race)

+ Dragon Age, Hawke, I have no idea what I'm doing, but I know I'm doing it well. (Parks & Rec)

We are now using AO3 to bookmark filled prompts. If you fill a prompt and post it to AO3 please add it to the Bite Sized Bits of Fic from 2022 collection. See further notes on this new option here.
