inkstains

I am really ridiculous when it comes to writing history notes. I have to write in black ink in a thick spiral notebook in complete sentences. My handwriting is a nice blend of printing and cursive and it looks just so aesthetically pleasing and entirely appropriate to history notes.

My philosophy notes are less precise and a lot more haphazard. Anything goes. Other courses I don't really take notes in. XD whups.

I carry a notebook everywhere for the jotting of ideas. One is full of graphs for various ridiculous things: relationship dynamics, sliding scales of morality, etc. etc. These are my favourite. I will keep them and look at them fondly and with hilarity in ten years.

I have romantic visions of someday having a loft somewhere and typing madly by typewriter against a sunset while wearing suspenders and a fedora and pinstriped pants and smoking a pipe, only I don't smoke, so a licorice pipe will have to suffice.

Word = bane of my existence, but I use it out of habit and personal compulsion for fiction. Word 2007 is two thousand shades of not worth my time. I stole Word 2003 from my ex-boyfriend and, if I can help it, intend never to update. Straightforward interface. No small share of glitches, but acceptable.
