tumblr and apples and things

So basically all I've done this afternoon is finish Three Bags Full and then browse tumblr, because it is such a lovely waste of time and there's so much wonderful stuff there. Though it is kind of confusing, especially at first, because there's really no comment system and if one doesn't have an account it's difficult to navigate unless one knows the url of the tumblr itself. And then there's the whole how-do-you-credit-a-picture-when-it's-been-reblogged-10,000-times thing, which I think is an issue, though I'm not sure exactly of the details. But overall it's a fun place to waste time in and everything is easy once one gets used to it.


[I don't remember if I ever put it on here (I probably have; lately, school-induced lack of sleep has shot my short-term memory to pieces), but here is my tumblr, if you care to take a look.]

Tomorrow I think my family is going apple-picking, which unfortunately cuts down on frantic-NHD-researching time with House, though I much prefer apples to the Marie Paul etc. etc. Marquis de Lafayette (though he's cool too--after spending so long researching Robespierre, it's a lovely change to be reading about a guy who is actually remembered fondly in history ^.^). For one, apples are much tastier and apple-picking is fun and I get to spend my time practicing my pathetic tree-climbing skills and exploring the apple orchard (there's this weird little old house nearby and I like to imagine the story behind it) and eating fruit :D. Gala apples are my favorite; I hate red delicious apples because they're always too mealy and icky and the skin is always too thick and red delicious apples are the only kind of apples school cafeterias ever have (that and tough-skinned, dehydrated oranges; smallish bananas; and maybe not-entirely-fresh salad on a good day)--those, and sometimes super-sour green ones--and I absolutely detest them. But gala apples are nice, and also fuji ones.

Apple pie is good too. I want pie. ;w;

Nanowrimo (I've given up on spelling it 'NaNoWriMo,' because that involves hitting the shift key too many times and my lazy-butt high-school-sophomore self is too lazy to do so; it's also why I didn't capitalize the apple names earlier, even though I think that apple names are supposed to be capitalized) is in ten days omg. I'm not sure if I can finish it this year, but I shall do my best.

There was a bio test today and it was difficult but Momo, Virgil, and I were featured in one of the short-answer questions and it was exciting. :D We were a detective firm and, through the discovery that the murder victim's oxidized electron carriers, disproved a policeman's theory about suffocation being the cause of death (long story). I think I got that question right, though there was another question that was really difficult. :|a

Aaaaaaaand that was an unusually long post (I never noticed how many Us 'unusually' has, but upon reflection, there's quite a lot). I must be feeling very chatty today.
