Help my depression
Feb. 23rd, 2006 10:54 pm![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png){kind=small}
cornerofmadnessgive this meme a shot Give me a title to a story you think I should've written, including (if you wish) fandom and pairings, and I'll write a summary who knows you might inspire me to write something.
Why am I depressed? Not ONE student thought my kitty cd-rom was cool. No one looked at it. Hell, they barely wanted to dissect. Whine all you want guys, these kitties have to last 8 more weeks. They ain't going to get any better smelling. Yes you must cut into them. No, you can relax I will NOT touch you with my gloves if they're dirty so if I touched you you know I'm barehanded or freshly re-gloved. Yes I DO put my tools in my pants pocket. I'm used to touching this stuff and being covered in toxic goo, relax. I'm not dead yet. Yes, i DID touch it with my bare hands. Just don't you do it. If you scream, you best be gushing blood and not because embalming fluid spat at you! And yes you will all be vegetarians by the end of this because I can't help making food references. Deal with it. Pathology/Physiology/Anatomy are ripe with these analogies. It makes a quick point
Dear Student #1 - okay, so you've done this before, telling me that does NOT make me let you out of lab. I put YOU in charge of helping your fellow students.
Dear Student #2 - Asking me which labs the lab practical is one while I'm HANDING OUT the test makes me want to embalm you. Don't do it.
Dear Lab Company - don't know where the fuck you get these anemic cats but damn, either you send me catzilla or some scrawny bastard even I can't find the muscles on.
Dear Students in general - you've beaten me. I'll only put two muscles from the cats on the exam Latissimis Dorsi and Serratus Anterior. You got a 50/50 shot so expect me to ask you WHAT THEY DO!! And expect these cats back when we get to organs and no whining then or else I'll pull the organs out and tag them sans reference points. I swear it.

Date: 2006-02-25 06:16 am (UTC)Following - (Wolf’s Rain) - Toboe doesn’t know why he’s so compelled to follow Tsume, after all the older wolf is nothing but mean to him but somehow he can’t seem to let go.
...And In This Corner (Fullmetal Alchemist) - Sometimes Winry thinks Ed braids his hair too tight. What other explanation is there for him challenging Flame to another fight after what happened last time.
Crash and Burn - (Buffy the Vampire Slayer) Just when Buffy thinks she has both vampires out of her system and she’s ready to move on, here they come again to wreck things.
Return Post - (Fullmetal Alchemist) - She looks for the return post every day but letters from him never arrive. What’s a girl to do when she gets tired of waiting?
Circling My Heart (Fullmetal Alchemist) - A perfect square, husband and wife, commander and adjunct, the four of them circling each other in a strange love ‘triangle’ that few would understand and the military would never accept.

Date: 2006-02-24 05:30 am (UTC)The only time I remember screaming/squealing/getting queasy is when I accidentally burst some organ or other and some really foul-smelling substance was excreted. I think, if I recall, that it was the pancreas. Maybe. I dunno. It's been a few years. All I remember was the stench, and the fact that I turned a little green around the gills and my lab partner (who was content to write all the names down on the paper while I poked and prodded the actual pig) got nervous because she thought she was going to have to start doing the cutting.
I also remember the day one of the snakes got loose in the classroom and I went scrabbling over the floor on my stomach, diving under desks, and caught him. The workstudy student who helped me re-tank him was muchly impressed - which was fine with me because he was about the yummiest thing I'd seen. Sweetheart and cute as a button. But apparently snake-wrangling wasn't enough to make him ask me out. But then again, he was shy, so... *grins*
We (Workstudy Boy and I) did meet up at a concert a few weeks later, unexpectedly, and he slammed me with a full-body hug and a, "OH MY GOD! How are you!?" And after he left with his friends, every single girl around me was like, "Holy shit, who was that and how do you know him?" *giggles*
See, girls, if you'd just learn to handle snakes you'd get a lot more boys. *innocent*

Oh, Blockbuster was out to kill me tonight. I went to use my two free rental coupons that would have expired today, and I had my hopes up that I'd just looked in the wrong place for the FMA disks the other day - but no, no luck. Cowboy Bebop was there and several other animes, but no FMA. And then they ran an ad for some new movie called Havoc that I have no idea what it's about but instantly made me wish I had FMA.
And then there was something else, but I don't remember what now. I just remember thinking, Dammit, I hope my DVD's get here tomorrow!

I'd leave one project to get something I needed to finish it, another one would catch my eye and I'd get started on it instead, and the cycle would repeat until I had at least twenty projects started and abandoned in the middle. It drives ME crazy.

And, uh, yes. I hate monster stories because they almost NEVER get finished. Although I suppose I should be encouraged: the only one I ever did finish was an X-Files. So maybe I'm capable of finishing this one. ;-) (Of course, I also had an aggressive beta who would email me and say, "Hey, slacker, where's the next part?" *G*)

Plus they were totally funky, some with their eyes half open and their tongues sticking out. Funny..in a mean way. But I thought the cat labs were really cool, we ended up having to pick out a bunch of the tendons in the forearm - which was so hard because they were tiny. But again very cool lab.
Maybe I'd totally be a mean teacher..but Lats? Dude, could you BE any easier? I say challenge them if they're going to be all stupid.

Date: 2006-02-25 06:17 am (UTC)Mouse Skating - (Full metal Alchemist ) Winter days are long but Riza never thought the boys would do anything this retarded. Several of Mustang’s men later, she finds herself nursing a battered Roy hoping he’s learned, betting, ice and mice do not belong in the same sentence.
Persephone's Last Breath - (Star Trek: The Next Generation ) Picard rarely allowed himself personal liaisons but when the beautiful new mythology scholar comes aboard the Enterprise, he can’t help himself, even if it means his death.
Puedo Escribir - (Fullmetal Alchemist ) Maes didn’t know what he was getting into when he asked Roy how to write in the ‘language of birds.’ Who knew his naked body could be transformed into a canvas for alchemic artwork and that this much could be had doing it?
no subject
