I want my dollfie dream to come already!!! AUuuuUUUGGgggGGGHhhhHHhhH!!!!!
For thr curious, I ordered a dollfie dream with an NS type II body, M bust, and the DD04 head. I also got her a brown bob wig, a wig cap, blue F type animetic eyes, a school uniform type outfit (western style, not a sailor fuku), and a-get this- little sheer body thing to keep her clothes from staining her vinyl. It’s basically like having skin toned nylons on her whole body… Or like a dollfie condom. Teehee.
My doll will look something like that picture above. This hair, eyes, and sculpt are the same! Woah! We have some similar tastes! I nabbed this pic from a post on figure.fm (See?
The bad news is that she won’t have a faceup. However, I didn’t want to spend about $650 to get a dollfie dream fullset, nor did I want to wait about six months to receive the doll after I ordered it. I saved about $200 this way, and also got a head cap and body slip, which aren’t included in the fullsets. I’m hoping my experience drawing anime peoples will come in handy and I’ll give her a super cute faceup :D
Hmm? What’s the difference between this doll and the rest of my crew, you ask? More on that when she comes. Look forward to it! ;) She should be here tomorrow or the next day.
…I also want to NOT have to “write an outline of everything you learned in physics last semester.” Worth two points. Yeah. Thanks.

So. I’m taking a class this semester that basically comes down to “physics 101 for biology majors.” Tony has scoffed at it because there is no use of calculus, which apparantly means that it’s pathetically easy. However, in keeping with the common pattern I have observed, our professor is circuitous and confusing; thus, as I sit in class, no one seems to know what is going on, we’re behind schedule already, and he moved back the homework due date.
Today I had my first lab. We first spent an hour doing stupid questions like “An object moves 20 cm in 4 seconds. How would you explain the number 5 (20/4=5).” In answer, we were supposed to explain that tis meant the object traveled 5 cm per second, so every one second, it travels 5 cm. At this point, one of the girls in my group stopped us and said, “Wait, I’m confused… We divided by three, so how is this per one second?”
I was sort of…flabberghasted. Seriously, how do you not understand this concept? I had to sit there and explain that once you’ve done your division, your answer is “per one second.” I dunno. It was weird. So then we had to explain what it meant to measure the distance between two points and divide by the time it took to get from A to B. Lacking a direction, this gave us average speed. But another girl was convinced that we had instantaneous speed, because, as she said, “We only have two points. How is that an average?”
So I spent a few minutes verbally explaining to her that the object could have slowed down or sped up while traveling between the two points, and that, in fact, we were not measuring an instantaneous speed. She was resolute on her opinion, so I drew points A and B and did a stupid little motion diagram showing a bunch of slowing down and speeding up and stuff. She still didn’t get it.
Finally I stopped the TA as he walked around the groups and said, “Hey, they want us to say average speed here, right?” and he confirmed. I think she was still convinced she was right.
So then we walked to the actual lab, and to my distress the instantaneous speed girl sat down with myself and a very smart and nice girl that I know from my Scholars Program, along with another girl that I didn’t know. We were instucted to measure human reaction time in the lab and were given a stopwatch and ruler. We had to design the experiment ourselves, so we did some silly think where we dropped the yardstick above someone’s hand and measured how long it took them to catch it. Most people did things where they reacted to a certain number on the stopwatch.
The experiment took about half an hour, but we had to sit around for about and hour and ten minutes because we have to present afterwards and one group was slow, and the printer wasn’t working so we couldn’t print our writeups right away.
So yeah, I think physics is gonna be okay.
