I'm literally just guessing on some of the questions on my geography exams and I'm still getting grades of 100%, which means I either have A+ rank luck (not something corroborated by much else in my life) or the grade curve for this class is abysmal.
How does a grade curve work?
Huh. I don't think I've ever seen such a system implemented here. At first glance, I don't think I like it. What do educators tend to think of it?
Also, thanks for explaining!
I could have went to a buffet yesterday, but I didn't hear the phone ring and I am still so mad.

I don't get how people eat ice cream or cake when they're having a bad day. When I'm having a truly bad day, I feel sick to my stomach.
i usually eat ice cream with chocolate, oreos, or m & m's

Hm.
Well, that could've gone better. Had a commission done, inquired about the possibility of a refund, repeated it was fine if it wasn't doable... I believe the nail in the coffin was when I used the word "value". I valued my budget to go toward another project (but, was fine with what I've received and already paid for). In any case, all was said and done and I took the piece without regret... I liked it regardless.
... come to find out after looking up his Twitter to gather some info to credit him, that he made a several multi-tweeted rant about me, even posting snippets of our email conversation. The peanut gallery took up their pitchforks and at the end of it I decided to explain further in a series of replies. Sincerely thanked him after saying how disappointed I was in his behavior because I do admire his work, and lo and behold... he blocked me.
Reminds me of an ex. Anyway, here it is, waboom:

Artists tend to be touchy about the monetary value of their work, mainly because it sucks pouring your life into something and trying to make a living or at least pocket money out of it only to be asked to do it for free or for less than what you'd make serving tables for the same time. Plus of course the relentless criticism from randos if you have an "unconventional" art style whereas others put in a hundredth as much effort to draw anime ass and tiddy and rake in the praise and dough. (Names withheld to protect the innocent, but I'm sure you can think of a few).
Granted, on the flipside there's a thin line between "touchy" and "drama queen" and some people, particularly on Tumblr, vault over it with an Olympic-sized pole, so I can sympathise with both sides on this one.
Asking for a refund on something custom made for you, once it's already done, does seem like a dick move though. Being an asshole on twitter about it however, is incredibly unprofessional, and might end up ruining the persons chances for more work.
Yes, well. I can see where he's coming from, so I don't have an issue with it other than the fact he shared our emails about the commission to others because he was upset. I don't care who the fuck you are, how much time you spent on it, what I or another did to justify it, that's something you don't do. (and, yes, I've contacted one or two of them, in fact)
Yeah. I can see that. Regardless, I'm already over it--I just extremely disliked the fact he went behind my back about it instead of discussing it with me properly, you know, like an adult and that, as an artist I admired the work of, was an asshole regarding it.
Eh. Twitter is a cesspool, and he did me a favor by blocking me on everything he associated with me on (as I also later found out while trying to credit him).
Why did you ask for a refund?
the possibility of a refund and well
You can guess why
After writing a bit about the Grails, and thinking about how time seems to work on a scale that feels more like i'm not seeing things go thru time, but instead that i'm seeing time go thru a static set of things, or how most things seem like the same block of info getting multiplied by time, i can only say that i can't truly feel surprised that the original Einzbern who decided to power the grail system felt like leaving human reality behind. Sure, i mean, the whole Illya/that 1st homunculus thing might be a type of reference to the series 'secret of mana' and the family of women becoming the mana tree, but lawd, i can't truly feel like leaving this reality behind and becoming a tree would feel that bad... Hey wait a sec isn't that a wolf's rain reference? Whatever...
Humans are so disgusting sometimes. Or would that be most times? Anyways, could i just get a ride for the spirit world? Not even Lain wanted to hang around here.
Tatari/Kirakyshou is such a pita. I wonder if i can train some elfen-lied-like hands and start suffocating Tatari into submission every time that thing pisses me off... Although i do think this wouldn't stop so soon... Which does remind of Eva's ending and Asuka's rebirth from the whole human soup...
If i ever learn how to cut thru concepts with a knife instead of my mind, i think i'm going to try to kill earth just for the fun of it. Hm, no wonder the counter-force hates me... At least the damn thing is teaching me how to leave it alone so it can leave me alone; wonder if that means that it doesn't want a full-blown war with earth being the prime victim... Hey, Alaya, we gotta talk more often, k? Besides, unless i bring our daughter here, you know that the results will be something related to mars, and since i've got a ticket home and this is your home, i guess i couldn't care less. And meh to you for that umn message, wtf, it's your body we're talking about.
Signing off, probably back in an hour or two. Hope you can point the black-haired girl to where she wants to travel to.
