Damn.  That's a bold green.

yea it was silk emulsion previously in a pale but somehow stubborn as fuck and we are using matt emulsion paint to go over it.

My room is going to be quite a bold teal, so when we leave here I'm leaving a nightmare for some other poor fuck. I did splash out on a more expensive paint with a primer mixed in for it, so it'll go over the battleship grey quite well.

I did find that using a brush over the parts that didn't take well was a winning plan, however, and it's almost there.

I was initially stressed out by the math thing and how rusty I am, but now I am playing around on Khan Academy just doing basic algebra exercises and I am remembering how perfect and lovely and soothing math is.

Yay for winning plans and improving skills and rooms!

:eek:

That is not how I remember maths. Note that in the UK they hit us with them in plural. Maybe that's why I found they had a tendency to scamper around the inside of my head rattling pots and pans and flipping me the bird when I tried to catch them. Maybe the american method of tackling them one at a time might have been easier?

:lulz: Quite possibly.

I just like it because it  has order, and form, and consistency, and if you understand the logic everything makes sense, and there are no exceptions; math is ALWAYS logical, and it ALWAYS follows the same system. If I have a wrong answer, it is because I made a mistake, and all I need to do is go back and figure out where that mistake is.

Haha.  Two days after being informed of "goings on", we managed to catch students ordering in kebabs.

Like, 100 francs worth of kebabs (thats about $100 worth, more or less).

So....I think I know what's for lunch tomorrow.

Want.

The older I get, the more realistic I become.

Example: I lie more often when I know it will make my life easier. Little lies I had before refused to indulge in. Especially when it's business related.

I'm having the opposite experience, but it's OK because I'm getting more diplomatic.

Stop looking at me that way, this IS more diplomatic.

Ah, that WOMP was a mistake then. You're not Ms Atomic Bomb, 2013. You're Ms. Diplomacy 2013.
