Once, just once I'd like for there not to be some sort of crisis around exam time. 'Cause actual study time would really help me pass high school some time in the next bloody decade.

Are you just swamped or is there something I can help with? I can do a pretty good impression of a review coach...

[xp_daytripper]

Swamped, mostly. I think I have those bloody numbers finally under control, but the rest has fallen behind a bit. Not to mention I've missed Strange's class just about every week for the past month, and he's making growly noises about catching up.

Thanks for the offer, tho'. I'll muddle through. Maybe ask for a couple of extensions on things.

[x-kitten.livejournal.com]

Does Strange actually give you finals?

[xp_daytripper]

Not exactly. More like he's realised we haven't done that much for a month and now he's making up for it..

[x-kitten.livejournal.com]

Major bummer. Good luck, babe.

[x-cypher.livejournal.com]

Same as Kit said, I'm more than willing to help you review. You could have your very own tag-team study coaches. ;-)

[xp_daytripper]

Thanks Doug. Um, I'll talk to you later? Arabic and Hindi are actually needing me to work this time 'round, so I'll grab you for those.

Where's the stress? There's always study time, you just need the proper amount of caffeine and stimulants to stretch the day out a bit longer.

...

AND FOOD!

[x-crowdofone.livejournal.com]

See, this is why I like you. Priorities in the right place.

And now I want a sandwich. I'm gonna go get a sandwich.

[x-catseye.livejournal.com]

Pastrami sandwich! :D

...

And sardines?

[x-crowdofone.livejournal.com]

Pastrami-sardine sandwich.

. . .

Well, I've tried weirder things. Sure.

[x-catseye.livejournal.com]

Catseye will be down RIGHT NOW!

And then will bring one up for ShinyBitsBoy. Pffft!

[x-forge.livejournal.com]

You are the best cat in the house.

[x-catseye.livejournal.com]

Catseye is the only cat in the house!

Mmm. Sardine/Pastrami sandwiches! :D

[x-forge.livejournal.com]

Of course you are. That makes you the best, right?

And I can pick the sardines off and share them with you. Too greasy for my tastes, bleh.

[x-catseye.livejournal.com]

Catseye can work with that. ;)

More sardines! Catseye thinks this arrangement works very well!

[x-mirage.livejournal.com]

food sounded good until you said that!

but I will come anyways. I think pastrami with grape jelly sounds better.

[x-forge.livejournal.com]

A brilliant idea. Let me know if the kitchen's safe from the emerald-tressed destroyer? I think she's still a little vindictive about me pointing out that she shares a suite with her boyfriend. Oh, the horror.

Sandwiches versus possible magnetokinetic dismemberment. Decisions, decisions...

[x-crowdofone.livejournal.com]

Aw, Lorna's all bark. Find her a nifty recipe she's never tried before and you'll be right back to being her hero again.

[x-mirage.livejournal.com]

I could feed you.

A) I can read this, you know. Even if I'm only reading it hours later.

B) Less with the vindictiveness of pointing out that I sleep with my boyfriend and more with the slander of his good name.

C) Um, kinda confined to quarters, ya know? Kitchen is a safe place, atm.

D) New recipes would not be frowned upon as bribes to get back in my good graces.

E) It would only be a little dismemberment.

F) There is no F.

G) Have I mentioned that you're my hero again for the Faraday cage? So much love of the Faraday cage.

H) I, J, K, LMNOP, Q, R, S, T, U, V, WX, Y and Z! Now I know my ABCs. Next time won't you sing with me.

Can I suggest one of Tante's recipes? I think a night of watching a dozen students fight for access to the water tap after a little blackened wonder would be good for the soul.

As soon as I can stand on my own, I'm totally on board with that plan. Revenge and spicy food shall be mine!

[x-jubilee.livejournal.com]

I think it's in the rules of being a Californian that you're not allowed to be brought low by spicy food...

[x-polarisstar.livejournal.com]

((Voice to Text Enabled))

I thought that was Texans. Californians aren't allowed to be brought low by like...sushi or something.

Bloody medlab has this sneaky deal on where I'm not allowed to go near Nate if I haven't slept properly. Not that I'm healing him every time, but they figured it was the best way to make sure I stick to the rules. Well, that and I promised Pete I would. So regular sleep it is, or at least as much as I can without having to knock myself out every night.

[x-forge.livejournal.com]

Well, simple priorities - are you going to be a nurse or a student? If you're having trouble doing healing stuff and passing classes, just pick whichever's more important, I say.

[xp_daytripper]

Like that's any kind of choice. You know full well what I'll choose, since I couldn't really say to Nate or to the eldest Guthrie, "sorry, can't fix you, I have an algebra test next week."

Not everyone's mutation lets them operate without sleep. Hell, not using mine means I don't sleep, and it's not pretty. Especially when Frenchie and I synchronise the not-sleeping. But if I don't rest after a healing I end up half-killing myself, so I'm screwed either way.

*sighs* I'll pass what I can and let the rest go hang. Like I'm ever actually going to get anywhere with this school thing any way. I can only memorise what I've actually managed to read, and I'm still catching up with that.

Always wondered what that Red Bull stuff was like...

Death in a tin can.

Tinny death.

Red tinny death. I tasted it, once, when Doug had some.
