I just watched a show on H2 (previously History International) about Alexander the Great. It was an episode of Ancients Behaving Badly which is pretty hilarious. Despite the fact that he was a cruel, drunken tyrant with a severe case of narcissistic personality disorder, they rated him as barely more psychotic than Gengis Khan. Caligula was at the very top of the chart.

The animations were great. It looked like they were trying for a cross between anime and comic book illustrations.

I have no idea why I watched the show. I do terrible things when procrastinating. My English paper isn't due until Friday, so I have time to watch television.

It seems introductions are going around. I'm Shizuka Jounouchi! I'm from Japan, and I'm here attending Harmony University. I apologize in advance - my English is not perfect. I work part time at Stagecoach Coffee House. I love visitors!

	Uh... He's not talking about an actual dog. I think he means Jounouchi. Why did you move here of all places? I suppose, but if I'm doing something wrong I like to know. Rebecca always lets me know when I mess up, though. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Onii-chan isn't a dog. :\| I got a bunch of scholarships. That's...pretty much the only reason why. Well, that and okaa-san liked the lack of crime. Rebecca? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Lecturing the wrong person here... Well, what I've heard is the University is really good. So congrats on your scholarships. Uh, you don't know her? We met her through Yuugi, I figured you were a part of that... er. Circle. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Sorry. I'm just tired of people insulting him. He's a great guy. Thank you! So far, it seems good, but I have nothing to compare it to. No, I don't know her. She's friends with Yuugi-san? I only spent so much time in Domino City. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Jounouchi is an interesting guy, that's for sure. Well, does it have the degree you're looking for? That's most important, I guess. Yeah, I think she is, anyway. She used to really look up to him. Maybe I should introduce you. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	He'd be happy to hear that! I kind of want to major in something having to do with baking, but I have not looked into it. If not, then...well, I can major in something else! That would be great! I love making new friends. Are you two close? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I'm sure he would. A degree is just a piece of paper. Nii-sama says they're really just an endurance test. I'd say we are, yeah. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Yeah probably, but I still want to feel proud of it and that'll only happen if I enjoy what I'm doing. Awesome! We should all go out to lunch or something then. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thebetterkaiba 2012-01-11 02:37 pm UTC (link)
	I suppose. Though getting a degree is something to be proud of, in and of itself. Uh, maybe. Sure. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	_shizuka_ 2012-01-11 10:47 pm UTC (link)
	Exactly! Though college is pretty hard so far. They want me to take all these random courses like science and math. I took those in high school. You don't sound like you want to. That's okay! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thebetterkaiba 2012-01-12 02:16 pm UTC (link)
	Yeah, I think Gen Ed is mostly about ensuring you weren't cheating off the smart kid next to you in high school. No, it'll be fine. I'll just have to ask her first. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	It's a frustrating waste of time. If I don't have interest in something, I shouldn't have to take it. Oh well. I'll get through it. I just think it'd be nice! You can invite your brother too. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thebetterkaiba 2012-01-12 09:36 pm UTC (link)
	I'm sure you will. I don't know why they make you do it, either. ~~If I'm on the fence about Rebecca committing, I don't know why you think my brother would come~~ Uh, I can ask him. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	It'll be fun, we can all catch up. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thebetterkaiba 2012-01-12 09:42 pm UTC (link)
	I'll ask them and get back to you, Shizuka. (Reply to this) (Parent)
