So yay I've finished exams! :DD Now I can focus on wasting my time  watching anime/Korean dramas, writing fanfiction, and cleaning my room! :D I think that I did fairly well on all of them... I'm just happy that I finally got through that one take home exam (two essays to be written over the course of four days, on the nature of history). But it's all over and done with! :D

Oh, and it snowed for four days straight, as everyone seems to know... but it stopped today! :D yay! ... and then I look out the window, and yep, you've guessed it, it's started up again. D: Isn't it crazy that I'm technically on summer vacation, and yet it looks more like Christmas break outside?

And I'm definitely going to France this summer! :D And the Japan Expo, in Paris! ... which means that I've got to get working on my costume for the anime festival...

That makes sense - a lot of names are like that - take "Johnson" or "O'Leary" or something like that. :)

I looked mine up once - the etymology:
A "croft" is "a small farm, especially a tenant farm" or "a small enclosed field or pasture near a house."
So I'm guessing, quite literally, a "fox croft"? ;p (It's English, by the way)

Interesting! :D (I could tell it was English. ;) ) What does Cassidy mean?

[kuiskata]

Cassidy:

From an Irish surname which was derived from Ó Caiside meaning "descendent of Caiside". The given name Caiside means "curly haired", from Gaelic cas.

Alternately, it can mean "clever", but either way, it's still of Irish/Gaelic origin.

Curly haired/clever... better than a mere "decoration" like me. D:

Lauren means "decoration"?

[beboots.livejournal.com]

"Lauren" comes from "laurel" (as in the plant/flower), which means "garland", a kind of decoration. See, I'm not crazy! I do have a line of reasoning! ;)

Ah, I see.
