Song Away

The Steampunk Scholar has once again proven himself a valuable source for steampunkery. Here is an article on the steampunk 'tribes;' the various collections of like-minded steampunks (because there can be huge differences betwixt one and another). I have to say, after reading his article (The full article is at Exhibition Hall, another SP publication.) I know myself for a Browncoat Timelord (BT)/Carriger Pigeon hybrid. It's not so bad a thing to be.
Anyway. I'm going to Sakura Con again this year! I think I've mentioned that, but maybe I didn't, and either way, you know now. I doubt I'll be doing any cosplay, but I'll be steaming it up anyway. It's getting mainsteam enough that I may not be the only one. Anyway, that's what Original Characters are for, right (I can just say it's in the works over in Japan. People'll totally believe me...)? Do you think I should bring my enormous hat? Hah.
In other news, I have been accepted to a college, which is simply unbelieveable, isn't it? Fingers crossed for the others, ne (So not going to happen.)?
In other-other news, I am mortified with the schedule I have at SFCC now. The International Relations course I'm taking for my bloody civics credit is between the ridiculous hours of 1.00 and 3.15, Thursdays and Tuesdays. Srsly. I was so super-pissed when they changed the time from the original 10.30 to 11.30. That's a reasonable time for me. Now for three days a week I have one damn class. That's sure worth the hour and half to drive. And it's bloody Japanese too. Maybe I should just drop Japanese. It's not like I'm really keen on learning anymore, I just keep taking it. Weird...
Anyway.
To Ned; I somewhat regret to inform you that my spring break will hardly be noteworthy for your RLA 'zine. Try Joel. Maybe Donovan.
I'll post my expedition to Seattle, hopefully with a picture or two in early April.

Yours,
Murphy
