Dear ATG readers,

I'm really sorry guys (or at least those interested in ATG) but this whole semester proved to me that I can't really hold ATG while I'm with other... businesses in mind.

Therefore, I wish to mention that I will not update Ask The Greki until I have finished this semester and have more time to actually provide answers of quality.

I'm truly grateful to those people (you know who you are) that stuck to me even after I started giving them crappy jobs and even more crappy updates.

But for now (that is, for the month of November) I shall stop all ATG (and thus put on hold those questions sent to me two weeks ago), as I have many final proyects that will definitely consume all of my free time.

Thanks a bunch for sticking up to me, and I hope I don't dissappoint you in the future.

See ya!

We find ourselves here again after sometime close to a month.

Or perhaps three weeks…

Either way, I have a good reason for it.

You see, last weekend we went to a convention outside of the city.

I must say that it was a really interesting trip.

But, really, that whole week had me upside down.

…Let’s go by days.


-----------


Day 1, Monday:
October 5


It all started on October.

As always, in the mornings, I was happily sitting within my little,
English booth (with funny little windows) where I spend most Mondays,
and Tuesdays, working my good, seven-hour shift for my social service.

So very hard was it on that day.

With so much work to do…

That I spend a good half of my day sleeping.

Thus it was so that I decided to go out for a walk.

But, oh, surprise!

My little booth was closed.

“Oh, teh noes!” I cried loud, trying to figure a way out.

So was it that I found myself in a dilemma.

And hence I had to think some options.

“Option one,” I thought, “I shall wait two hours for the next professor
to come.”

Two hours passed, and not a single soul.

“Option two,” I thought, “I will call reception, and see that they send

for me.”

I called, twice, but the secretary was away.

“Option three,” I thought, “I shall panic now, and perhaps throw down
the door.”

I quickly discarded that option. I had no money on me.

“Option four,” I thought, “I should perhaps panic a little bit more and
throw a chair out of the window.”

Sadly, I didn’t have to try out that one.

You see, just when I was about to panic myself silly, a good ol’
colleague of mine thought it proper to go visit the booth.

Unfortunately, when he got close to open it, he changed his mind and
promptly turned away.

With me watching through the window.

It was a sad day.

Anyway, he came back later that day.

…

…And laughed himself silly.


--------------


Day 2, Tuesday:
October 6


After my little ordeal the day before, I didn’t think it proper to sit
long hours in my little, English booth, alone.

Or at least, with my door closed.

Alas, I have no such option.

On the alone part, I mean.

Anyway, that day something curious happened.

You see, I was trying to get my little bored self out of myself by the
means of the good (ancient) computer within my little, English booth.

Unfortunately, that plan went out of the window.

You see, just when I had finally opened a window (it is ancient, after
all), I found myself in the most curious dilemma of…

No electricity.

Sadly, one of the blades of the transformer (or something like that)
just popped itself silly.

I actually thought it popped the computer silly too…

Anyway, thus I had to spend myself in a not-really-lighted booth by
means of a candle.

Which wasn’t good, since I have pyromaniac tendencies…

Anyway, curious thing about the whole thing, just half of the high
school had shut down.


--------------


Day 3, (Wednesday):
October 7


On this day I learned that sometimes we get so nervous that instead of
saying Japan we say “Jay-pan.”

And you know what the sad part of this was?

It was in front of people.

You see, that whole day (after completing my social service hours by
lecturing prepubescent kids) I just worked on a lecture I was going to
give on my last class before the faculty directives.

And you know?

It sucked.

I had to pass alone and first on top of that!

Not to mention that it was poorly prepared because I had been told
about it just a day earlier!

AND IT WAS SAD!

Still, the good part of it…

Well, I made everyone else look good. x-X


-------------


Day 4 (Thursday):
October 8


I was sooooooo, sooooooooo, soooooooooooooooooooo excited on this day.

And yeah, I discovered my account had been cancelled *exactly before*
the trip.

You know what trip I’m talking about, right?

Thankfully, they fixed it all right.

Anyway, on that day, a classmate of mine got caught up in the middle of
a shooting.

Thankfully, she wasn’t hurt.

But it was enough to leave an impression.

Day 5 (Friday):
October 9

THE DAY OF THE TRIP!

Now, we’ll later do a comic of this, but if you want a heads-up, just
check out Silver-Ray’s journal [link] , or perhaps Avencri’s (if you
know Spanish) [link] .



Now, after the Winterfest (that’s the name of the con we attended) we
went back to a delightful week of homework and… work.

So, yeah, nothing truly interesting there.

So now we’ll go to ATG!

I guess this is when I tell you:

I tag you all.

Dear ATG and non-ATG readers,

Okay, so yesterday I realized something extremely important.

My one ego of a muse needs to be fed.

So, what does this entail?

Something very simple.

Ask The Greki is coming to DA!

…it started on DA, though…

Never mind…

Anyway, yes, woo!

All bow to the glory of all the questions completely random and wholly
inconsequential!

…With their proper responses, of course.

So, yes, for all you bunch of people who do not know just what the heck I’m rambling about…

Ask The Greki (a.k.a ATG) is a section for our comic (’s and mine), Demoön [link] , which basically is what its name implies:

A section where all your deepest, weirdest, and completely random questions shall be answered for you by *ahem* my lovely self, of course.

Anyway, this section has been actually going on for… 14 weeks!

Wow, I didn’t know that…

Anyway, while I’m actually proud of the first weeks or so, I have come to realize that the past two entries (that is, the past two weeks) my answers have been nothing but (WARNING! WARNING! CURSE AHEAD!) crap.

Indeed, people. I’m in fact slightly ashamed to admit it, but not that much ‘cause I was kinda lazy to do them… soo…

And well, really, I was getting all emo-ish over there, ‘cause people outside the circle just didn’t seem to give it any mind, and well, there was just too much drama going on about there and just not enough wisecracks.

If you’ve read our first published issue, I’m sure you got that joke.

Anyway, so! In order to get myself a bit more motivated (and perhaps less crappy, and otherwise cranky), and not to mention ‘cause this account looks a little bit lonely, I shall now start posting here too, the questions and answers sent to ATG.

And, yes, you can now send your questions to my DA’s PM’s…
Lol that sounded like the whole technical mumbo-jumbo I’m certainly not in charge of…

Anyway, yep!

You can check all further details at the comic’s website [link] , but right now I’ll give you a quickie:

Send all your questions to either my DA via note or to atg@chutkat.com. One question (any question) per week. They’ll be answered on the Saturday following the date of your message. Messages sent on Saturday will be answered the next Saturday and so on. If you want to be anonymous, state so in your message.

Okay, for now that’s all.

Oh! And my mom just opened a DA account ~1makiavela, you can see all her awesome jewelry stuff there… well, part of, ‘cause there’s still a lot to upload.

Lol, anyway, see ya until Saturday!

Thanks!

Greki

There is this little thing called laziness…
It’s a damn annoying thing really. Take my word now, mate.

I mean, I need to do like 20 or so things right now, so why in the sun’s seven holy rays does it come to me whenever I wanna do something?
I mean, my sis’s probably a workaholic, but even that is a thousand times better than being a procrastinator.

And I don’t exactly do nothing… In fact, it’s just that I get quite taken up with anything really (can’t just do nothing), and I simply do not get done what needs to get done at the time it needs to get done.

Understand my meaning?

Even now I’m in a bit of a tight fit ‘cause I gotta do a massive investigation on legal stuff that I should be working on ‘cause the tight schedule, and yet I’m rather writing something that is actually completely useless other than to ramble.

And is it useless! I haven’t updated this thing in years and finally when I get to is something about just how lazy I am.

And problem is, I’m even complaining about something that I’m not actually experiencing right now!

‘Cause I did work on that legal stuff today, and right now it’s not that necessary to be doing it, but still I write about it because otherwise I wouldn’t have anything to complain about!
And worse of all! I’m complaining to totally random people about myself and the bad habits that haven’t been exactly present these past two weeks!

How twisted is that, huh?

Well… perhaps not that much because what I really wanted was not exactly complain about my huge bit bouts of laziness and procrastination, but rather the fact that I simply wanted to write something but I did not have a proper theme that would not require much thinking.

And well, rambling on writing is a bit more fun that not writing at all. I haven’t written much lately except that odd ode and Demoön stuff (which most of your probably have not idea about), and I think I needed this bit bout of randomness.

Even though I’ve got work.

Writing without fun shouldn’t be! Now I feel as if in middle school! A big, tiny schoolgirl with no interest in anything other than having fun.

And yet, I can’t even have fun ‘cause procrastination is a damn big timing-less idiot!

So… I’ll stop right now, it was fun while it lasted. Lol, thanks for sharing your little time with me on this little one weird stuff of written… stuff…

Great, see ya!

Greki

Oh! Didn’t edit. Sorry for mistakes!
