lea_hazelWhoops I forgot to update my journal in almost two weeks. No idea why. I've still been checking my DW basically every day.
Stuff that happened in that time:
Got a Twitter (here), at the behest of a couple of Israeli friends. There are massive fiscal-related protests in Israel right now and Twitter is one of the online epicenters of news and discussion. A bunch of my tweets and retweets are in Hebrew, just so you know.
Finished my very last piece of work for the semester, which was a mock research proposal that turned out more complicated than I'd anticipated.
Watched Green Lantern a couple of weeks ago and found it fairly dull, having not enough aliens and not nearly enough shiny explody green stuff -- too much talking and ~character drama~. Watched Captain America last night and found it much more enjoyable.
The new light rail in Jerusalem opened. I was on it yesterday to get to the movie and so far it is pretty terrible.
Wrote a bunch of anonymous fic, and also made a bit of progress on my absurdly late![[community profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/community.png)
help_japan fic. It will be sad, I think, but perhaps bittersweet. It is also getting my mind on perhaps writing some more VM fic, after I finish it. Right now, though, finishing it is my top writing priority, and then getting a good beta.
Things that are still to happen:
In a week I'm flying to Atlanta with my brother for DragonCon. Eep.
Finishing an anonymous WIP that I've been working on all summer and spring and posting it to AO3, possibly after extensive editing/beta. This is a thing that is going to happen.
When offices at uni open again, calling the life sciences secretaries and figuring out whether my lab request was approved. This has to happen before I sign up for classes. Then I have to sign up for classes when, yet again, I will take more courses on my first semester than I am comfortable with, due to 'constraints' (had to look that up on morfix).
