Last bujinkan until July. So sad. Will have some nice bruises and was teased for being too violent...oops...

"A Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher with a personality like poisoned honey" from here.

What the heck does that mean? I'm afraid I haven't had any poisoned honey for awhile...

Was COS supposed to come out on Friday? Because it was on sale in the local supermarket today.

Friday is the official release date, but natch, the stores get them a few days before so as to set up displays. They're not SUPPOSED to sell them early, but, er, it happens. For instance, I got Final Fantasy 8 well before its release date cause I smiled real purty at the clerk. ;)

Me, I won't get it for at least another week 'cause I preordered both it and Spirited Away from Amazon and asked that they be shipped together. SA's release date is April 15th. Amazon is, unfortunately, quite the stickler about release dates. They don't even ship it out until the release date, so I likely won't have it before the 20th.

I'm so busy right now, though, I wouldn't have time to watch it anyway. Does your school work on the quarter system or something? It is cool that you're off right now. This (spring) is a great time to be off. I wish I was off.

My uni has three terms a year (currently, by the time I graduate they'll have switched to a more modern two term system)with a winter, spring and summer term. Winter term starts Oct. 7th or so and lasts ten weeks. I have three weeks off for Christmas. Then another ten week term. Then we have the spring holidays, which I'm finishing up now (which last a month), followed by summer term, which really cosists of five weeks of term and five weeks of exams. So I'm not out of uni until somewhere near the end of June.

Wow.

I'd much prefer that to the traditional June-July-August.

Actually, I'd prefer to be completely free of work and school from April through October.

Who am I kidding. I'd prefer to be free from January to December. Well, not if it was something I really liked. :)

Maybe someone with a personality like poisoned honey seems sweet on the surface, but is actually really mean, or even evil. (Although, on the other hand, I can't really see another evil DADA teacher, at least not for now!)

I'm not sure if if "poisoned honey" means a person who is sickeningly sweet or as a person who is externally sweet and quite nasty on the interior.

If I wanted to go with the Nazi Germany-era "beefsteak" (brown on the outside, red on the inside), I could say she is golden/yellow on the outside and black on the inside, but that would just make her a Hufflepuff. /me shuts up.

I'm afraid I haven't had any poisoned honey for awhile...

No? I have to interact with poisoned honey at least once a week (if going by the fake persona meaning).

"poisoned honey" seems sort of purple to me. Or is that just my purple-radar?
