I just watched episode 10 of Sora No Woto and...I'm not sure if I like where it may possibly be going, if my speculation is correct. FYI, this post is going to be containing SPOILERS, so if you haven't watched up to episode 10 of Sora No Woto and you don't want to know what's up, then don't read the rest of this paragraph. So...I'm really bummed that Rio left. She was my favorite character! I found the end to be sad, with her passing her trumpet to Kanata as Iliya had done to her. The question is why did Rio leave, after saying how she had ran and now she knew she couldn't stay in Seize and had to perform her duty? Well, I'm pretty sure it's because she's the princess of the country. This is due to many facts: first, Kanata kept connecting her face and facial expressions to that of Iliya. Second, the whole telling the story to Jacott about her life and how it was similar. Then there was her telling the story to Kanata when they were walking about how her half sister would come to visit her sometimes, and then flashbacks to Iliya. And I think the last was in the store when the shop owner and some guy were talking about how there was one more princess, but she was illegitimate and then Rio walked into the store. So I think that's all pretty good evidence to speculate that Rio is a princess, although an illegitimate one. Then there's what's worrying me. Kureha was telling Kanata about how Iliya was supposed to have been married to the prince of Rome so that there would be peace between the two nations (because apparently that's who they're currently at war with, and the Roman forces are starting to move after I'm assuming an unsuccessful treaty agreement) and that she would be his third wife. But then she ended up drying saving a child from a river. What I'm worried about is that Rio, since she was walking about how she has to fulfill her duty, is going to take on responsibility as the nation's princess and be married off to the Roman prince. Because that would bug me like crazy, Rio can't do that! She's too awesome to not be with all the girls, and definitely too awesome to be married off for peace and never to be seen again. I hope she returns, I really do. It's partly because she's my favorite character and I hate when my favorite character ends up leaving, and partly because the 1211th just isn't the same without her.
Meanwhile, still waiting for episode 47 of Brotherhood to come out subbed. It's taking longer than normal, which sucks. Because this week is at least the beginning of the Pride battle, if I remember correctly.
School is getting to me. So badly. And I feel it got to me even more last night. Why? Because for some reason I never bothered to delete my old roommate from my Facebook friends. There was some conversation in the news feed on one of her things, and apparently she pulled a 3.8GPA last semester. Her. The one who in one semester missed all of her classes at least 6 times, would go out four of seven nights to party and get wasted, then come back around 2 or 3 in the morning. I definitely didn't do that well. I sure as hell didn't do that well. But I'm not buying that she did better than me necessarily. I had two science classes. When she was my roommate she wasn't taking any. She's going for a BA in psychology. Psychology? Maybe with a BS, but you can't do shit with a BA. So I'm guessing she still hasn't taken any science courses. She's probably been doing all this easy shit that people with easy (meaning they don't require much science or math) majors do. That's the only way she could have done better than me.
Meanwhile...I don't know if it's possible, but I'm going to do my hardest to raise my low B in Japanese to an A by the end of the semester. I need A's to raise my GPA, and 5 credits of A will definitely help. And I'm also going to try my hardest to get a B in at least one of my sciences. I'm pretty sure I can manage a B in physio, although that's if I get A's on the next two tests and don't completely suck ass in lab. Now, o-chem...if I can get an 88 in there, then I get an A. So...I'd have to get near perfect on the last two tests. My second test (which I just got back today and barely passed, although did get complete points for one of the A level questions) would get dropped, and then...you add about twenty points from the two theoretically good tests to my first test which I got a solid C on...then figure in the online quizzes...hmm, so maybe not. Maybe, but maybe not. I could definitely get a B with that though. I'll have to try to figure it out later.
Speaking of that test, I could have done better if I had more time. I left three questions completely blank, so I lost 22 points with that alone, and then rushed on a couple to get an answer down, and only got partial credit.
I think I'm going to try the quiz for chapter five right now, because I think we got through most of the stuff. And then...try to work on my case study hypotheses for physio lab. I have one, but I can't think of a second. And I'm not sure how long they're supposed to be, like a paragraph or just a sentence or two.
