Random rambling

eveglassMy brain is fuzzy from reading and translating, so I've decided to take the rest of the day off from schoolwork. Instead, I shall post in my livejournal, because if LJ isn't a source of procrastination, I don't know what is!
I realized last night that I have apparently been calculating my renown wrong. For those who know me, as of the last renown-giving night, I had enough for cliath + 3 temporary wisdom and that's it. I was wondering why people were going up in rank so fast, when it seemed that it would take me months or years to reach fostern.
Then, yesterday at the Theurge Moot, I had it explained to me: apparently, for things like "healing garou not in your pack," or "participating in a rite," you're supposed to take the renown for EVERY time you do it, not just as a once-and-for-all thing. In which case, I've got a lot more renown than I thought. Possibly even enough to reach fostern.
The problem: I haven't been tracking anything. I figured that renown was a once-and-for-all thing (ie: renown for actions is not cumulative or repetitive: once you've healed someone, you get the renown for that healing but not for any subsequent healings). Therefore, I wasn't keeping track of how many people I healed, how many rites I've been part of, etc. Sigh. What's a girl to do?
On a different topic, I realize that I have three weeks left of classes at Concordia. Two more papers. Four more exams. And that. is. it. No more Concordia for me! Yay! I've enjoyed my four years here, and I've had some great experiences, but I feel it's time for me to be moving on.
I will miss many of my friends, I will miss some of my professors. I will NOT miss the bureaucracy (though I suspect I'll be subject to even more at Toronto).
Feh. My brain is too dead to keep going right now. Too much looking at a computer screen. Hopefully I'll see people at garou tonight.
