Thank you to everyone who helped me!
If you haven't seen it, I'm cosplaying as Ginko from MushiShi.

This time of year the roots would be ultra bitter and I wanted something light, so I just did a bunch of young leaves. They steeped for about..ten minutes.

I've got plants, now I'm just waiting to plant them.

One of them is a climbing plant that has these pink false flowers with a little white real flower inside.

Edit: Picture.

It's new makeup day here in Der Wafflehaus, and it's so colorful. Last time I ordered makeup, it was almost all neutrals.

Today, it's totally not.
(also, I have yellow eyeshadow now. What does one do with yellow eyeshadow?)

While writing in my journal last night, I couldn't think of much interesting to say. A year ago I said that if I couldn't find anything particularly eventful to write about, I might have wasted the day. So I reluctantly shut everything down and crawled into my bed for sleep.

Last night: I was asleep for what felt like hours. When shifting, I accidentally whacked my hand against my two-day-old industrial piercing, which suddenly began gushing blood everyfrickinwhere. All over my bed, shirt, pants, running down my neck, in my ear canal... My roommate was in front of the mirror getting ready for the day.

In the girls' bathroom, when trying to clean up everything and stop the ridiculous bleeding, my body thought it would be the best course of action to promptly pass out. Luckily my RA had already been summoned by a horrified housemate and both were there to catch my nonresponsive body.

Security was called, the bleeding stopped, I came to, some really awesome Asian young woman cleaned me up (minorities are rare on campus so seeing one is like HALLELUJAH DIVERSITY!!) and it turns out I had been asleep for under an hour. My roommate wasn't just getting up--she was going to bed.

Oh, life.

Congratulations!

So my bank just sent me a letter saying that since I'm almost 26, my account type will be changing.

...I'm 18.

In addition, they keep sending me weird letters and cards telling me to read the leaflets enclosed...and there are never leaflets. confused

Having to take down shrines a month before I officially move kinda sucks.

Apparently I look androgynous enough today to have someone taking a survey on our campus ask me if I identify as male or female, while she didn't ask anyone else in our group (which included two trans people, one who has just started HRT). I'm not even wearing any kind of masculine clothing today. It's kind of exciting!

Also, just about to watch a "Wiccan documentary" in my class with a Neo-Gaianist professor. This should be interesting.

ETA: It's a documentary by the Farrars, good fun. I suppose better than some other things he could have shown, though we're on "THE BURNING TIMES!!!!!" right now. Any good, scholarly sources I can find on the internet on how eclectic neo-paganism isn't Wica? I don't have time to read books for this paper, but I'd like to counter some of the ideas of Wica my prof writes in his book.

Probably not, seeing as only a certain demographic within the larger BTW community holds this opinion. I mean, I could probably coax my Gardnerian High Priestess and her newly elevated High Priest partner to write about how eclectic neopagans can sometimes legitimately call themselves Wiccan (two-c's).

However, writing a paper about how eclectic neopaganism isn't once-c Wica is like writing a paper on how blue isn't red. It's just fact. There's no issue there.

Can we get bullet points at least on the first. Would love to see it. Cause I like that idea.
