Right! Well, I'm only about 1/3rd of the way through my course. Its short but too long for me having to deal with bs every week xD
So a lot of the classes have the same students, same group. Just cause its a small school and all. I have these two classes every week that has this same group of 5 people who are a couple months newer than I am. In ONE of these classes we have an additional 2 students who I'm more familiar with from prior classes, they've been at the school as long as I have.
There's one day the week before last where the 5 newish students started to address to the instructor that the 2 students I mentioned are bothering them. This is during the class that the 2 aren't in with us. They're like "they keep whispering to each other, complaining about the class too much and doing their own thing and its highly distracting, we speak for all of us blablabla"
I never hear them making any sort of disturbance personally, cause the class is usually disrupted by the 5 students shouting in chaos for 4 hours. But I stayed out of it, just left the room cause idc. It was time to move on to the massage rooms anyway.
So last week in the other class, the instructor tells the 2 students to separate. He sees a complaint from the majority of the class, so he politely addresses it, shouldn't be a big deal I thought? Well, these students get real fussed, put up an argument about how "these are OUR seats". Class time is disrupted as usual. In the end, they moved seats like they were told, and were absolutely infuriated, throwing the energy off in the room, having a riot the next day in a different class about it.
But
I will tell you
All that happened was one of them moved from one chair
.. to a chair that was literally just on the other side of their friend.
They never separated in the end and they're so angry :vanora_xd:
THIS is how petty my school is. We all paid 20 grand to focus so much on what our neighbor students are doing, and to claim seats, and shout at each other. I feel like I'm the only level headed one there who just wants to read my text book!

@ruby:
sorry I peaced out, my net got all funky xd
Thats a shame! at least you got to be there when it was good. Its seemingly hard to find good teachers anywhere you go, and harder to maintain them. Even my academy has some nut jobs. I cant even trust the dean lmao
It really is like I'm back in middleschool mentality again, only the teachers are just as bad as the students, so there's a lot of petty drama. a. lot.
and it is encouraged by some teachers
My class times are always disrupted by all the he-said-she-said drama and I'm just like, can we just move on to the subjects at hand please? Stay after if you want to gossip and whine.
I often come home and sit at my desk after my classes, and just put my head in my hands like what am I doing there

@ruby:
no i dont mind the story! that's interesting and dumb how things work that way. Honestly kinda sounds like something you'd read as part of a plot of some book or something thats meant to frustrate the reader and put them on edge xD
anyway, sounds like it worked out in the end? you guys got away from it all and were able to move on.
are charter schools the ones that students live in dorms?

@ruby:
that seems like a weird concept. I'd imagine there would be exceptions in the contract if someone's not doing the job properly. I'd count ethics as part of a teacher's job too! but I digress.
oh its okay, i dont think I mentioned it before. I'm from Florida originally. Homeschooled when I moved to northern Texas for a year, then back to Florida for the rest of it. Now I'm in Colorado xd
Plan to work my way back into the south though, I hate it here lmao

@avocado:
Haha its normal to come out sore afterwords. But like, a work-out soreness, cause your muscles are getting worked out. You probably have a lot of tension.
Or if its like, bad pain, like something feels like a problem. Then yeah you probably had someone who didn't know what they're doing. If you go to corporate massage places (ie massage envy) they're reputed to be... less than effective and also terrible to their therapists. But I'll not ramble xD
I will point out that Masseuse doesn't mean what you think. Its commonly mistaken, but a Masseuse is where "happy endings" come from, so it isn't the same thing as a Massage Therapist lmao

I've come to realize I only want all the rare items I cant find/get/afford
@ruby:
Oh yeah? Mine was for the entire 8th grade, and mainly because I moved across the country for just that year xD
I always thought I'd be too academically slow for college cause I missed out on 2 years worth of HS from graduating early. But now that I'm IN college, I'm realizing just how very behind my schools were in general and that I probably wouldn't be any much more ahead than I am now. My bf already studied a LOT of what I'm currently learning when he was in his freshmen year of HS (he's younger than me, but also went to school in a totally different state) and my schools were stuck on middle school subjects.
Yeah there are practice tests I can take, so I'm not super worried. I took one already at the start of my course just for kicks and got 50% lmao
test is different for each time, but I hear its often full of common sense ethics

@amber lynne:
Hopefully :D We'll see how it goes!
Interesting is the right word for it, for sure xD Its a private academy so pretty small and looooots of drama.
The massage part--the purpose--is pretty fun though! I can't wait to get into hot stones and such
@avocado:
Yes, of course! And I'll make sure to let you know if I make any real progress on it :D

Art Quests
I'm saving up to afford art of my favorite FFXIV boy <3

Zad Bardhyl
male, bi (art with your WOL or ffxiv charas is big <3 )
------------------
DRG - Dragoon
Weapon This is the best image reference of the Otegine Kai lance weapon that I like a lot. The image was found on Tumblr
Also White Oak Partisan is his most current weapon, the red version
Things to note:
Top roots of his hair are purple.
He has wiggly marks on his face under his eyes--significant to not be forgotten.
His right eye is a redorange color, left eye is green.
References to use:


If the armor is too much, you can feel free to remove the metal chunks and just replace them with gloves and cropped sleeves, or whatever might look fitting.
I also have this more simplistic outfit option:
