Ano sa yuki chan, whats this title?

A quote from my script. I really like it because it rhymes.

Re: *unintelligible T-Rex shrieking sounds*

Jakarta is not too high from sea level. Our northern side opens right to sea. With generally not-so-good water system and trashes everywhere, no wonder we get flood easily. And also because we don't have much open space to keep the water that falls thanks to all the buildings and roads.

Well...that sucks. Longterm wise, you'd think your government would at least do something to improve the water system, as to minimize the damage as best they can, as being near sea level can't be helped.

Haha. No, not for now at least. But who knows if I change my mind in the future, though it is rather unlikely.

Not lucky, really. Just more selective. I could have chosen to study in Jakarta, but since I hate traffic and flood, I chose Surabaya instead. It's closer to my hometown too.

Ah, I thought Surabaya was your hometown since you mentioned it before . It's good to be close to your hometown then, it must make it easier to visit back family when you're off, right?

Nope. Well, the heroine's background and personality is similar to me, but what happens to the characters is inspired by my friends' experience.
If a story is based on my own experience, it will be bloody and violent. But I'm tired of killing off characters so... I have no choice but to write romance. My friends already commented that it's so-not-me since I lack love story in my life, not to mention my hostility to male species.

I'd like to read a bloody and violent story from you, even if it's not a romance. I hope the script you're working on turns out well then. Your hostility towards the male species amuses me quite a bit, I'm glad not to have been on the wrong side of the fence...yet.

They already know about it. And it's probably hard to fix it, I don't know, since things didn't really improve since years ago, it seems.

The only thing between her current place and her hometown is sea.

The distance is no problem, the problem is time. And money.

I have a fifteen minute play script, and it features death though it is categorized as tragic and ironic rather than bloody and violent. I also have a short story that is also... tragic. Wait... why do I write tragic more often?
Hmm, but I'm writing a comedy-fantasy story now, so I think it's an improvement. I might start working on a bloody story as well.
Thanks!
Haha. Make sure you never do. I'll hate to have your blood on my hands.

I get that. Travelling between where I live now and London was a regular habit in my first few years here but after I began working and actually having a life here, it was more and more difficult to go back. I think I've only spent one summer back there since '07. When did you last visit your family?

Tragedy, death, bloody; just playing to your strengths right? I think it's good that you're edging away from that and trying new genres, it's good experience and will give you confidence to try more different things.

I can't promise that, plus I don't think I can get bloodied that easily.

Me visiting them would be last January, I think. But my mom and dad visited me a few months ago here.

Well, I was just bored with murdering my characters. I want my characters to survive at least once. And then, most of my friends also write the same type of thing (yeah, we're a bunch of psychos) so I thought I want to try something new. I think I can do good with comedy, but writing romance is just.. . I shivered in disgust whenever I type those lovey-dovey words. I think I'll go back to gloom and doom with spices of comedy when I write again.

Oh, you'll be surprised about that.

Like I said, be done with the omelette and then be gone.

I love eggs, of course I won't refuse an omelette.

And... no. I don't want my insides to be on fire. I need them to be perfectly normal.

Ah, that's not too bad I think. Especially if they're able to visit you also, saves on money too.

Sounds like a fun group of friends you have there. I wonder if you guys sit and discuss new devious ways to kill characters . I think as with most things in writing, there is a relatable element that is used from the person's own life, so if you haven't really experienced that, then it'd be tricky to write it. So the solution is....find a guy.

You wouldn't really want to hurt me.

Actually it does not really save money since the money for the flight is of course from my parents. I don't earn that much money.

We do. We have this "class" called Psychology of Killing Learning. We usually will gather and talk about the worst way to torture and kill people. We even discuss the psycho characters from movies, books, games, etc, to try learning their psycho ways.
If only it is that easy. I think I still have some years ahead before I meet the "fated one".

Indeed, but I will if I have to.

Do you work part time? or is this uni money you get that you're referring to?

Sounds like a disturbing class, one which you'll either enjoy attending or feel quite uncomfortable about some of the things said in it.

Do you believe in "one true love" then?

Keep telling yourself that, dear

Re: *unintelligible T-Rex shrieking sounds*

Yep. I work as a lecturer's assistant in my uni.

Ah, but I love that class.

I suppose I do.

You don't know me that well then. I will do the things I have to do irregardless of my wishes.

Re: *unintelligible T-Rex shrieking sounds*

Yep. I work as a lecturer's assistant in my uni.

Sounds quite cool. Any particular role you fulfill as assistant? and how often do you work a week?

No wonder you come up with such devious ways to kill characters; that class has corrupted you. Or should I say, you've corrupted everyone else in that class?

Do you have an ideal type of guy then?

You don't have to do anything you don't want to.

 

[yukihime03]

Re: *unintelligible T-Rex shrieking sounds*

Well, I have to read the student's writing and check it for any grammatical mistake. Then I'll instruct the student on how to revise and improve their grammar in their writing. I work for around two hours a week.

We corrupt each other.

Not really. Just that he has to be my equal in every aspect... which is a pretty high standard, I have to say.

Nope. Sometimes we have to do something we don't want to, usually for the reasons that it is for the good of many others.

You don't? You're the second person who said this to me today. A few hours ago, a friend in my organization said the same thing to the astonishment of me and other members since we meet almost everyday and it has almost been a year since I became an assistant. She must have been pretty ignorant not to know what everyone else around me know.
Well, if it is you, I suppose it is still natural. You never ask and I never mention. We don't talk much about campus life anyway.

Nah. It is a pretty boring thing. I don't exactly teach in a class. Mostly it is individual conference. Just reading the students' essays and revising it.

Re: *unintelligible T-Rex shrieking sounds*

Yeah, that other friend sounds pretty ignorant.

Now I kinda feel like a bad friend. But then again I don't think you've ever told me so yeah. That kinda explains your crazy schedule. Do you actually have to do that much being an assistant?

I glare at my friends, not my students.

Not much really. As I said, checking papers and stuffs. Most of the students don't bother to consult their papers to me, so I don't spend that much time. But when some students do consult, I have to set aside some time for them.
