It was mostly the being trapped in a room with people years younger than me and knowing that they'd think I was freaky because of my age that was awful. It's not that bad. We didn't even watch gory movies! Bring something to work on -- writing works well. You're smart, you'll catch on fast.
...Nah.
*nod* It got pretty entertaining, and it was one of the first things I ever finished writing. Which made me very, very proud.

Oh dear God. *headdesk* I figure it'll take me an hour or two before I catch on, then I will die of boredom. That is a brilliant idea. Except when I tried to write in the classes I didn't need to take finals in, I had writer's block.
I know the feeling. You should finish typing it so I can read it.
Especially if there's a textbook >.> We had one, so it was mostly a matter of "don't fall asleep, oh god". Albeit the course I took was taught entirely by cops -- fun. Bring a book?
Yeah... only problem with that is that I've misplaced the only draft that exists, it's in now-three-years-old (and probably blurred) pencil handwriting, and it ran up to about 120 pages, I think.

This one's taught in a church, which is totally one of my favorite places to be in. Probably will.
Ouch. Yeah, erasable pens were the best invention ever. Everything I've written in pencil is smudge, and everything I've written in pen has ridiculous amounts of scribbles. Erasable pen= brilliant.
Good luck finding the draft.
Mine was in my school, thus the sandwich-dinner (when I ate dinner). I just stayed after school vOv (Albeit. At the end of the year I've got to remember to bring home and scan a drawing I did sort of during one class that turned out really well for my lack of skillz.) I read Thirteen Reasons Why during that class...
I just write in pen -- the cheap kind, Bic Cristal ten for a dollar. They work exceptionally well, they're cheap as hell, and they don't smudge.
(Ooh... that reminds me of one fic of mine I wrote yonks ago but still love dearly. All in pencil in a cheap little notebook that I've still got. The original draft is smudged to hell and back but... well, it's a good story. At least to me.
(So, because I'm in a nostalgic mood: "Arkham Is Home".)

Yay!
Candy is awesome. Nobody dislikes it. Just make sure she isn't allergic to peanuts or something. *has almost killed her friend on multiple occasions because of peanuts*
