Wah wah wah. Sheesh.
Apr. 3rd, 2003 04:08 pmAlright. As has been pointed out, I suck at updating. I have a very boring life. Which, in mnay ways, is a good thing.
I did a sheepshank knot thing today. Sort of. My teacher gave us rope, gave us some (bad) instructions from a book and said "Go for it." I couldn't follow the instructions. I didn't understand them and when I tried the knot just pulled through. Finally I gave up, and just looked at the final picture of what the knot is supposed to look like. I followed the string, and made my knot look like the one in picture. And lo and behold, the damn thing held. I was rather proud of myself (until very annoying boy who keeps using this class to show off how smart he is--he spent a long time talking about Socrates in a vignette that had nothing to do with what we talking about and continued on to Einstein and Newton--said nasty things about maybe he should do it again and get one as ugly as mine). BUT it looked fairly like the knot in the picture, it held when tugged on and I was capable of reproducing it. And with that, I am happy.
Fanfiction is eating my brain. Again.
And now you see why I don't update. The temptation to whine is just to strong and I don't like being kicked my Qai.
