Very basic, basically tell us what you are thinking at the moment, because we tired to read your mind through the computer, but it didn't work. so yeah...
I am thinking:
Boy...my stomach feels quezy...:p
-
I am thinking:
I think today is a good day to start my RP. I just need to actually get to it and stop getting distracted.
-
I am thinking:
I wonder how GVG's first tDV episode will go. I'm excited for it! :)
-
I am thinking:
Will I pass my final class this semester?
-
I am thinking of making a "What if" fanfic of Lord of the Rings. And continuing my LBT story as well.
-
I sometimes wonder if I should leave the Land Before Time forums for good. I don't think I really belong here anymore. I have lost my interest in LBT, I am not going to continue my LBT fanfiction due to lack of interest and confidence, and I wonder if most people here are fed up with me. :p
lol I probably am being a drama queen right now, but that's what I'm thinking...:p
-
Uh, yeah, you're bein' a drama queen :p. Seriously, I'm now thinkin'...that the GOF would certainly not be the same without Rat_Lady7 :neutral.
-
Same here, don't leave Ratlady! We'd miss you.... :(
-
Hello:
I am thinking that I want to make a low-polygon version of the Scorpion Fleetyards seen in the Battlestar Galactica movie "Razor". I thought of that because I saw that two sections could do it as small "buildable" shipyards to build Battlestars ingame (Star Trek: Armada2), and there may be a chance to be included in the Total Convertion called "Battlestar Armada." :DD
-
Currently, I'm thinking:
I think I wanna go play Speed Punks.
-
Pandora has some awesome stations! :D
http://www.pandora.com (http://www.pandora.com)
And replying to the two replies to my post, I thank you for encouraging me. I just wasn't in the best mood today...I just really hit rock bottom today...
I like poking people I like. It's just my way of saying "Hi, I like you." :^.^:
*pokes* TPBM, whoever they may be. :lol
-
I'm hungry (lol)
-
Yawn....I'm tired.
-
I'm wondering when the snap my lack of inspiration will pass.
I've got three stories with overdue chapters. ._.
-
Well, I'm thinking about things like; "Why did the wind have to change when I was out windsurfing just now, forcing me to swim back from the middle of the lake and half-drown myself? :lol
-
"I'm off of work tommorrow and can finish writing that oneshot I started yesterday."
-
"gawd.. it's so.. freaking hot.. here..." :x
-
*mentally agrees with platvoetje* :lol
34 C over there as well mate? :p
-
I'm thinking about my next strategy for tomorrow's 2 hours-in-a-row game of table tennis.
-
My ears are plugged up...:p
What the heck is wrong with me?
-
Currrently, I'm thinking:
I hope I can get to a waterpark on my vacation.
-
Right now, I'm thinking about how I got into forum business.
-
I'm thinking right now:
How and where am I going to get a job cause I need money
-
Right now, I'm thinkin'...that I can't stand being broke! It'll be nice when I don't have to worry about tuition anymore ;).
-
I'm thinking about... how much I hope that I didn't mix up the addresses to two letters that I had sent! Luckily, I can get them to send those back...
-
I'm thinking:
I hope they do make that planned 5th Sleepaway Camp film.
-
I'm thinking... "Man, I love watching things go boom. I don't like making things go boom, though."
-
lol, I'll be scaring my bf away when I do the demo today...
Funny how the whole staff in the GOF is all guys... :rolleyes
-
i'm thinking how awesome it was when prime pwned 3 or 4 decepticons at once in the new movie
-
I'm thinking about what tracks to burn onto a CD! :D
-
I'm thinking about DNS rerouting and how I could get a .co.nr domain name transferred to a mydns url via my server. In English I'm thinking of how I could get a .co.nr domain name for a website that is hosted on my server. :p I want to personally host the LBT Funsite but I can't get a domain name for it because they say it doesn't exist! :bang
-
Food. I'm hungry! Though I should be sleeping.... :p
-
I'm thinking:
How I really don't want to go to work today. It's the local village carnival day on the green outside the pub (just local stalls, no fairground rides or anything). Last year it was so rammed, it was standing room only inside the pub and we spilled out onto the street and into the car park! Where's that lousy British weather pattern when you need it?! :lol
-
I'm thinking about my living room, and what color I shall have on the pillows that I'm buying for my sofa.
In addition, I'm trying to find out the best, and most effective way to create a mail bomb. :angel
-
I'm thinking that I am a bit worried about my mom. :(
I wonder what I really should be doing right now...
-
Im thinking "That peach i just ate was good" ^^
-
I'm thinking about why everyone is talking about half-full or half-empty glasses but nobody ever thinks about drinking up that glass however full or empty it may be. One can talk or think about the contents of a glass until they are all but evaporated in which case one will be off worse than one was in the beginning, no matter up to which level the glass was filled.
-
i'm thinking o.O from reading maltes post...
-
ooooooh pickles (lol)
-

I'm thinking that Malte has the most dry sense of humor ever. :lol
-
^ Actually I was not just kidding.
-
Ok. :) Hehe
I'm thinking that I need to clean my room, take those apple workshops, take care of my Gypsy Fluffykins, and poke something. xD :DD
-
It's 23:20 here, and I'm thinking about what I shall eat for lunch at work tomorrow. Think I'll have Pasta. :idea
-
I'm depressed due to my financial situation and I'm thinking of ways to get more business. :( It's been kinda slow lately.
-
I'm thinking about my cat. He weighs 11 pounds. Interesting..
-
I'm thinking...
ï I'm feeling about as lethargic as a three-toed sloth on decaf. (Well, that might be an exaggeration, but I'm lying on a bed typing this from a laptop, and I really don't want to move right now. :p)
ï I love Lillefot's new avatar. It's so cute. :smile
ï I never liked that "glass half full or half empty" metaphor either. The way I see it, the glass either wasn't filled up all the way, or someone's already drunk out of it.
ï For the second night in a row, I missed the beginning of the night's first episode of Wild Pacific on the Discovery Channel, darn it! :slap (Oh well; I'll just wait for the second airing...)
ï Wow, and I thought I wouldn't be any good at this game!
-
^ You? Not good? It's the intellects that have the most interesting subjects to think about and discuss. :)
I'm thinking that I need to exercise my brain more...for some reason...I just feel stupid a lot.... :p
-
^ You? Not good? It's the intellects that have the most interesting subjects to think about and discuss. :)
That's very kind of you. :)
The problem is that I would come to this thread thinking, "Now what can I post here?"
*I'm trying to think of something I'm thinking about so I can say what I'm thinking about.*
:blink: :wacko: :P:
Obviously, I needed to be thinking about something before coming to post in this thread.
Right now, I'm thinking about how ridiculous my brothers and sister look right now: playfully (I hope) fighting over a miniature Hershey's chocolate bar like a trio of famished Struthiomimus squabbling over a hummingbird egg. :lol (I hope they never find out I typed this.)
-
Currently, I'm thinking about the fact I leave for Florida on Tuesday! :)
-
Someone is irritating me badly....I wish I could just ignore them...but it's hard to when they are basically EVERYWHERE!!! :anger <_< -_- :rolleyes: :angry: :mad :rolleyes
-
I'm thinking of payday. Coming up in 6 days. :D
And this would be my 3000th post. Lets all peform a wave!
-
I'm thinking of writing and wondering if I should really do so, cause the fanbase for it might be a little unreceptive and thus if the story didn't get any attention I'd have another unfinished story sitting around gathering dust.
-
Golly, there be thousends of things i be pondering about! Mostly fanfic ones.. Thinking of what to write in the next chapter of Journey to the Island, Thinking of writing a Lord of the Rings fanfic based on the idea of "What would happen if Evil had won", Thinking of what to write in the next chapter of "The Dragons Reign" And what else? It's troublesome pondering stuff for fanfics. Painful too! :anger :rolleyes :anger :rolleyes
-
I'm thinking about how my food will come out when I cook tomorrow at home. I cook once a week for the family.
-
I'm glad sorted out a few things. I hope my session with the spiritualist guy can help me even more. :)
-
Right now, I'm thinking 'bout whether or not to get back into Tae Kwon Do. I was in it as a little kid, and lately I've been kinda missing it.
-
What to do tomorrow.
-
That I'm glad I am done with the screenshots of the 12th lbt movie.
-
Gah...I woke up at 3:00 am...:p Stupid sickness....
If I broke up with him, I would be devastated and so would he, but I also can't help but think if I did, would I be relieved?
-
I wonder how or why my sister could be such an evil witch? im shaking, ticked off and crying. Not even a thanks for baby sitting her daughter, she just bites our heads off! sometimes i wish she wasn't even a part of my family! Im sorry, im just up the point where i feel like im about to explode
-
I'm thinking about how much this place has changed since I first arrived...and I haven't even been here terribly long.
-
^ These have been active years.
I hope most of the changes were on the improvement side. If not, then there is something to improve.
-
THis may seem odd but I can't shake of the squirrels eat bats chant...it's been at the back of my mind for a while.;)
-
Wow, last week for my college class....:p and my birthday is coming up quickly....
-
Es quiere hablo espaÒol, FrancÈs, y Chino fluidez.
我想讲西班牙语，法语和中文流利。
Je veux parler espagnol, franÁais et chinois couramment.
(I want to speak spanish, French, and Chinese fluently. >.>)
-
Relationships suck...period.
-
I need to do bible... :p
-
I'm thinking:
"Why does my little brother have to scream so much when he plays Team Fortress 2?" :bang
"Will I find enough time tonight to work on my fanfic, do my homework AND work on car setups for my races this weekend? :p Probably not, but still... :rolleyes:"
"I'm going to retreat into my mind and do some serious thinking about Malte's post concerning half-full or half-empty glasses." :idea
-
My little boy is so cute. :^.^:
-
Makin' plans to go see "Saw VI" after work tomorrow night :D.
-
I wish this cough of mine would GO AWAY ALREADY. :p
-
That is an amazing quote SPR has. ^^
-
I'm scared out of my mind about how my CPR practical went this mornin'. I had to demonstrate my knowledge with two scenarios:
*Performing rescue attempts on a choking infant (mannequin), then having to perform CPR when the infant went unconscious.
*Performing CPR, then using an Automated Emergency Defibrillator (AED) on an unconscious, unresponsive concert attendee (mannequin).
I have to pass with at least 80% in order to receive my certification, and I will not know how much I screwed up or how well I did until next Wednesday :confused. Yeah, I'm really nervous :crazy.
-
What I'm thinking about at the moment?
"I have to tidy up my room!"
My friend is going to visit me today, and my room looks... not so good. xD
-
I'm worried about my Dad. Ever since he's gotten home from seeing his family over east, he hasn't been right. :cry
-
This cough of mine is still here... still driving me up the wall. :rolleyes
-
I........WANT.//.............SUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUGARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
And water.... *cough*
-
I've got the flu :rolleyes:.
-
I’m sorry that Cancerian Tiger has the flu.
I'm also feeling sorry for SouthPawRacer, in regard to his last two posts.
Speaking of SouthPawRacer, I'm wondering why the guy in his avatar is holding up his right hand rather than his left. :p
I'm thinking about what to say in my next RP post. :unsure
Finally, I'm thinking about how much I hate this crappy Internet connection I’m using right now. :rolleyes
-
I¥m thinkin about that I hope I don¥t have forget anything for the school.
-
I'm thinking:
"I'm about to have dinner, but I'm not hungry in the slightest."
"D'oh!" ...After reading Pangaea's third point. :lol:
And
"Dang, I've got school tomorrow. :anger "
-
Wow...and exfriend of mine has a fb. :p
I need to get up right now.
Fooooooooooood
-
I'm thinking about that:
"I have my notebook for about 2 years now! It's time to buy a new and better one! But unfortunately I don't have money! Nooooo!"
xD
-
gahhhhh school tomorrow...ehhh it's not too bad though...
-
The Swedish Chef. Whatever happened to him?
-
Baby squashes taste funny. :blink:
-
I'm thinking:
I really need to learn to stop spending so much time on Wikipedia. I just wasted the whole weekend reading about the genre Alternate History.
-
I'm thinkin' about, after reading a fanfic in which Cera thinks Ducky is weird, is Ducky really all that weird :blink:? I've always thought of her as a little on the quirky side and even somewhat random, but never a weirdo :). Well, I like random folks anyway, so it does not matter. She's still adorable :DD!
-
"When is JitteryDragon gonna finish making Part 2 of the Big Freeze YTP...?" :lol
-
I'm thinking about that:
"I'm hungry! I haven't eaten something for about 20 hours."
-
I love TPAM's avatar. ^^ and I hope he eats something soon. :(
I love this song: Chase the Morning. ^^
-
I. Don't. Want. To. This. Maths. Homework. :anger
-
Relationships...to be or not to be in one....knowing the consequences of relationships and being single.
My ex, who I want to be my friend again.
I need to sleep...NOW.
-
I'm thinking:
Cough cough cough cough cough, COUGH COUGH, COUGH COUGH... *cough*... Still hasn't gone away. Medication doesn't seem to be doing anything. :neutral
COUGH COUGH COUGH... :p
-
I'm thinking:
I don¥t understand this trigonometric function.
-
I want FOOOOOOOOD! :blink:
I feel VERY random right now... :p :DD
-
A girl who wants to meet me in front of a church near NYC's central park...
-
A girl who wants to meet me in front of a church near NYC's central park...
Nice :)!
I'm thinkin' 'bout playin' some Mortal Kombat :D.
-
I'm thinking about how I shall spend this day. I have a fever, so I can't do so much. :unsure:
-
I¥m thinking:
So I play C&C zero hour with a mod now.
-
Im Thinking
Ack! I briked a $ 600 32 GB Iphone. Oh well I can fix later XD I am not in hurry!
If i dont speak Polish why I decide to go to Poland XD
Why I am multicolored skin guy XD
-
I'm thinking... I've got so much work to do this month... :blink:
-
I'm thinking about you (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e4rgyH6h-Sg&feature=related&fmt=18) all night! xD
-
Im thinking..
Gory Glory Hola-Lu-Ya? I just beat the Forgotten One from Castlevania: Lament of Innocence again. Surprisingly, the battle went faster then usual and everything went smooth.. Except for all of the intestines, muscles and all sorts of gory stuff showing from the poor beast! :unsure: :unsure: :unsure: :unsure:
-
I'm thinking:
"Should I go to work today? Nah, I'll chuck a sickie"
So I did :lol
-
Mario sounds quite a bit like Usher! o.O
-
That's not Mario! The REAL Mario is a plumber who saves a princess from Japanese turtles and jumps on enemies to defeat them! :lol
-
^lol :p
I'm thinking I should be doing some other things right now. :p
-
I'm thinking:
That's it! No more wasting any time! I haven't done any progress on my fanfic, so I better start working on the next chapter right now.
-
Gahhh I have some much to do. :(
-
I'm thinking:
How should I end "What have we done?"
-
Little brother, please get off Left 4 Dead 2. NOW. :anger
(Seriously, he spent the better part of six hours on it yesterday... :()
-
Oh, and I can't believe I slept through my alarm and missed a leage race I had this morning. :bang
-
>_> speeeeeeches need to die!!!!! *stabs speech thing*
-
Right now I'm wonderin' how one of the windows to the house got shut even though nobody closed it :blink: :crazy.
-
I just saw JitteryDragon's new member title, and laughed. :lol
After reading an RP post by The Chronicler, in which his character describes himself as a realist rather than a pessimist, I've started thinking that I'm probably a realist, too. :idea
I'm trying to think of what to say in my next chapter review for Caustizer's "Far Away Home" fanfic. :unsure:
-
I like the new avatar Sky made me... Glide is such an awesome character, I think readers will like what I have planned for him.
-
I'm thinking
I need coffee.
-
I'm thinking whether or not I could pass my physics exam tomorrow...
-
I'm thinking about college.
PS: Excalibur, need some help with physics?
-
I can actually spell my real name with the mineral tablet thing like TPAM. :)
-
>_> I really don't like my sister right now...or anyone really...
-
>_> I really don't like my sister right now...or anyone really...
I'm feelin' the same way <_<. In my case, the cause is lovely PMS :bang.
-
Maybe everything will get better. :)
-
Things get better eventually ;).
-
Lol, I knew it...my sister didn't come last night...>_> This is so typical of her...
-
I'm thinking about how I'm planning on joining the Knights of Columbus one day... if all goes according to my long-term plans and I think it is worth my time...
-
I'm thinking about what I'm going to write for the prologue for this next act of Far Away Home... it wasn't part of the main story so I'm going to have to improvise.
-
I'm thinking about what will be my next post in my fantasy RP.
-
I'm thinking when is Noname going to post his entries for Pterano and himself. Hehe. ^^
-
I'm thinking about that myself too. :lol:
I'm also thinking we need to slow down the "in the land before time" RP. Really.
-
That's what I'm thinking too. :p
-
I'm thinkin' about how I got stuck in an elevator for the first time today :lol. It happened at my university, and it only lasted for a minute or two before the darn thing finally moved. Good thing I don't panic in emergencies, 'cuz I would've felt silly if I had called for help and then the elevator started up again :rolleyes:.
-
I'm thinking:
Good thing that my doctor had good medicine for my illness! Now I'm feeling WAY better than yesterday morning!
-
I'm thinking how I'm procasinating from my hw. And I'm thinking that I should get into writing some fanfics for the flyer characters in LBT. :p They just are really interesting characters to me...
-
I am thinking about how to finish Chapter 30 TWV.
And how to make a new banner for my forum.
And how to best respond in the 3 RPs I am in.
And what to write for my creative writing class.
-
How to get my stalled forum going again...
And how to do one of my projects for school...
-
Why can't the school year finish now? :mad
-
I'm thinking about a very interessting mail I recieved from a friend this morning.
I might translate it and show it here later on. It really gives you another perspective on things.
-
I'm thinking:
Okay, this is ridiculous! I've done hardly any work on the latest chapter of my fanfic! :bang I really need to get to work on it today! :bang
-
I wish it was Halloween still. :(
-
Some idiot kicked me on the subway... I'm still thinking about that.
-
Wow...I think I just ate four pieces of pizza and a pear...and I'm still hungry... :p
-
I don't know what crap is happening today, but it's kinda like this...
(Goku punches Vegeta into a rock)
Vegeta- This... Proves... Nothing.
Goku- Are you alright in there?
Vegeta- Yeah, I'm fan-f**king-tastic. It's nothing but gumdrops and ice cream in here.
Goku- Oh really? (smiles, can't detect the sarcasm) Can i come in?
Vegeta- I'm surrounding by idiots.
Goku- I thought you were surrounded by gumdrops and ice cream.
Vegeta- AHHHHH!!!!!
-
A few minutes ago, I warned my cat to get away from my brother’s pet leopard gecko (he’s developed a habit of climbing on the lid of the lizard’s tank), in a tone that sounded exactly like Mr. Threehorn in LBT VIII when he said, “Back off, Thicknose!” :blink: (My exact words were "Get off, Sasquatch!" :lol)
Also: Holy buckets, this is my 800th post! :wow
-
I'm thinking that I like TPAM's exclamation. :lol "Holy Buckets!"
It's definitely better then, "Holy S***!" xD
-
I'm thinking about how close I am to 10,000 posts. I'll hit that number for sure this year! :D
-
Right now? I'm thinking about the design and code of the LBT Server and I'm also wondering how in the heck I'm gonna get around to working on TheLandBeforeTime.org website today. It's already almost 4:00pm!
-
I really only have two days of school. ^^ The rest is Thanksgiving weekend. :D
-
I just check my member profile and I noticed that my total cumulative posts is now 1.00% of total forum posts. For me, that seems like quite an achievement. :wow
-
I wish I could remember an awesome dream I had earlier this mornin' (around 5:30 AM). It was a really cool dream about a LBT sequel that seemed so real I thought one had come out in real life, but then I was startled out of my sleep :bang. I can only remember one scene :slap.
-
I wonder if there is a way to end this worldwide "repression" (I hardly believe it's a repression. :rolleyes), without shedding blood...
-
It's awfully hard to even think about Christmas shopping when you're broke as a church mouse :bang. Typical of a college student, I know :rolleyes:. I make enough to pay my bills and that's about it. I can't wait to have a better paying job!
-
Thinking about how much I want christmas holidays...
So full with school works and reports, and the worse is that is freezing around here. :p
-
GROAN....I hate doing bible...>_> I wouldn't mind it if I was just studying it on a historical perspective, but because the homeschool person that will see these bible entries is VERY religious...I really have to be careful with how I word my thoughts about the bible...
And....I heart my little boy. 8-3 :wub
-
I think that Pterano sounds a lot like Dr. Terwilliger.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o8l_aDTkqgY (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o8l_aDTkqgY) (The 5000 fingers of Dr. T)
-
I'm thinking about how I screwed up a forum days ago and got away with it! Best part was despite the fact they were angry, they did not have a single clue of what is going on. But they did insult my sig.
-
I'm thinking that's a pretty mean thing to do TPAM....
-
I would really like to kill my parents now... <_<
I can't wait to life in a one-person-flat in a city... far away from home. Then nobody can get on my nerves there... especially my parents. :rolleyes:
But unfortunately I have to go to school for 2,5 years... and I hope I'll get a apprenticeship place then.
-
I'm thinking about ways I can kill our cat while making it look like an accident.
-
Weeeee healthcare reform! :p
I hope I can pull this debate off tomorrow...and I hope I can pull off whatever side.
-
Boy, am I random or what :lol?
-
STAR WARS!!! XD
-
"All the lonely people...where do they all come from...all the lonely people where do they all belong......?"
"AHHHHH look at all the lonely people...."
-
"Did you just call me stinkoman?!"
"Yes, yes sir I did."
-
Well, I've finally done it. After hoping to do it for well over a year, I've finally joined fanfiction.net. I'm hoping to start uploading my fanfic there sometime next month, so it shouldn't be long now until I see how popular it really is. Oh, and if anybody is curious, my name there is Chronicler of the Great Valley.
-
Gahh...I hate fanfiction.net....so many trolls there. >_>
FOOOOOOOOOOOD!!!!!!!!!
-
I... hate... red tape... <_<
-
I hate the atrocities humankind inflicts upon itself. I just had to watch a Youtube vid of 9/11 in class, and it had the song "Hands" by Jewel playing :cry. This made me think it's a shame that there are sick b******s in this world who are just plain evil :anger! The saddest part is that without knowledge and tolerance, history is destined to repeat itself :neutral.
-
^ And so it may because of human thirst for revenge which is not unknown to us either. But if some rather than all abandoned this dreadful thirst of revenge would it increase the degree to which mankind was split in a minority of those who deal and the majority which takes the blows? :(
On a funnier note, What are you sinking about? (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gmOTpIVxji8)
-
I'm thinking about the LSAT I will be taking soon...
AND my upcoming 10,000th post in 50 posts!
-
Uhhhhhhhhhhhh......cheese????
I'm really out of it right now. xD
-
48 posts to go...
-
I can't believe that most of Texas has been getting snow this week, but we (Vermont) haven't gotten any yet. :! :confused
-
I'm thinking of how many things I have to do before Christmas... and that's not even including the holiday shopping... :blink:
-
TGIF!!!!!!!! :D :D :D :smile :smile :smile :smile
I still need to do quite a bit of things....:p
-
"Wandering...on the horizon road...following the Trail of Tears....once we were here...we have been since the world began, since time itself gave us this land....!"
-
Got the LSAT done today... I also registered to take it again, IF necessary...
-
I was just thinkin' 'bout a very random and funny mishap that happened on my way home from class yesterday. A bunch of motorists and myself were speeding down the interstate when somebody hit a garbage bag full of empty Budweiser beer cans. The bag busted open, and the cans went airborne and showered on those of us who were behind the motorist :lol :lol.
-
Gah...AM I ALWAYS GOING TO BE ALONE FOR THE REST OF MY LIFE???? <_<
-
Will I EVER get these projects done?!! Actually, yes. I should be all done in a week. :lol
-
How funny animals can be :lol! Just a couple of minutes ago my older Cocker, Max, had set his red squeaky tennis ball down, so my younger Cocker, Pepper, slowly commando-crawled over to the ball and snatched it while Max had his back turned to him :lol. Too funny :smile!
-
I finally finished my final essay for one of my classes! :smile All I have to worry about now is...two finals, Christmas shopping for my whole family, a number of responsibilities concerning various LBT fanfictions, a few topics on the GOF that I want to post in... :wacko
-
I'm thinking about the new friend I have over yt. :D I've watched her vids for awhile, and now I finally can try to call her a new friend.
-
Going to see Avatar very, very soon. :D
Also, I finally managed to start typing up the next chapter of my fanfic! :DD
-
This line from the book "The Little Prince":
"One runs the risk of weeping a little, if one lets himself be tamed . . ."
-
Remembering my favorite scene from the Family Guy // Empire Strikes Back parody.
During the scene where Han (Peter) gets frozen in carbonite.
Leia (Lois): I love you.
Han (Peter): **** off.
-
Today is the two year anniversary of me joining GoF. :celebrate
I would like to change the quote in my sig, but I haven't been able to find one that would seem good enough. Instead, I think I'll add an image of who said that quote.

Eggs... :p
Sounds unusually random for me, but it's not. A friend of my mom's who owns chickens recently started selling their eggs, and we bought a carton of them. Compared to store-bought eggs, these eggs are brown, speckled, of different sizes, and are supposedly harder to crack. I'm eager to find out what they taste like. :yes

I'm thinkin' a series of strange things that have happened at or around my house over the past couple of days. It all began with the experience I described in the "Paranormal" thread. For those who have not read it, I was in my loft on the second floor of the house, and I was on the GOF. It was after midnight, and I suddenly had a very bad feelin' I was bein' watched. Just then, I heard a tapping sound on the loft window. Keep in mind this is the second floor of the house and nobody can reach the window from the outside. It was no ordinary tapping noise. It sounded like somebody was outside the window and was repetitively and rhythmically tapping their open hand against the glass. It lasted several moments. Then, my pup Pepper, who had been sleeping peacefully on the futon behind me, suddenly became alarmed and would not stop growling as he stared at the window. It was pretty spooky, but that was just the beginning.
The next day, I was out of school due to the holiday. I was walking my other dog Max. I can only walk one dog at a time 'cuz I can't hold both of them back if they try to chase another animal or dog. They end up dragging me :p. Anyhoo, I put Max in the back yard before I went in through the front door to use the restroom. I ALWAYS keep the house locked, whether or not anybody is home. When I entered through the front door, both of my dogs came running through the house to me :o! When I looked, the back door was locked but wide open :blink:. I grabbed a butcher knife and inspected the entire house, even the attic, and found no one.
On Tuesdays and Thursdays, I have a couple of hours in between my morning class and my afternoon class, so I go home to check on the pets and go for a run. Yesterday, before I even got out of the neighborhood (makes up the first 1.7 miles of my run), I saw a total of FIVE police cars driving through the neighborhood. My neighborhood is pretty quiet, and I'm lucky if I see one police car in the neighborhood every six months, so this was weird :crazy.
Last night, somebody rang the doorbell but I did not see anyone. Later on, when I went out in the back yard to get Max to come in (I let them out around 11 PM to go to the bathroom before they settle down for the night), I thought I heard somebody outside of the gate to the back yard. I was standing just ten feet away from it. Sheesh, things are getting creepy around here :o!
-
^If you think it's more an some paranormal activity, maybe you should call the cops on it?
I sounds like either your house is REALLY haunted or someone is playing some tricks on you. <_<
-
More likely haunted. Not to sound like a narcissist, but I'm generally well-liked by folks I know, and I have no enemies to my knowledge. Also, I don't give out personal information (including my address) to just anybody. Believe me, my initial suspicion was a prankster, but I can't think of anybody who would do such a thing.

I'm very disappointed about Mario Barrett's new music video "Ooh Baby". -.- It's about having sex with two girls... WTF?! o_O Mario, what have you done? I'm your greatest fan, but now... no, I'm really disappointed. This video is a piece of sh*t!!! I'm so angry!!
Watch one of Mario's older videos (this one is my favorite music video):
http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x21ql5_mario-cmon_music (http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x21ql5_mario-cmon_music)
And then watch Mario's latest video -.-:

It brings me to tears, because I'm so disappointed! I was his greatest fan before this video... :mad
I should think about another favorite artist...

How seemingly human my parrot Howard is. Yesterday was one of my running days, and I had my running gear on. I stopped in front of him and asked him, "Am I sexy or what?", and he immediately nodded his head really fast :lol :lol! I've never taught him that.

I'm thinking TPAM's post was pretty funny. :lol:
And I'm thinking about how I am spending my life in front of the computer screen. I wonder if I should alter a few things.

I'm thinking how silly that real age quiz was. 13 years old my arse! :rolleyes

I'm thinking how silly that real age quiz was. 13 years old my arse! :rolleyes
Is that the Facebook quiz? I got 16 :lol.
Seriously, for a much more accurate real age, go to www.realage.com (Dr. Oz approves :D) and find out your real age. Mine's 15.7 years old ;).
-
^That was the quiz I took, on realage.com. It's really funny how people disapprove old age and glorify youth. :p

I'm wonderin' why I've been more sensitive than normal lately. PMS has come 'n gone by now, so I can't really figure out any other reason why :unsure:.

How ridiculous, there's been a lot of snow in states like Virginia and North Carolina, but up here in Vermont there's hardly any snow left on the ground. <_< I'm pretty sure that whatever snow is going to fall tomorrow won't last long.
-

Yeah, the snowfall we got down here is so rare, not many folks believed it would really happen. Southeast Virginia was not prepared for this at all. Our snowplow guys have been using what I heard somebody call "Tonka Toys" to remove the snow from the roads :p.
EDIT: I forgot to mention earlier that there were at least 400 automobile accidents reported over the weekend in my area. Seriously! I'm glad I was not called into work this past weekend. The area does not even have salt to salt the roads :crazy. It felt good to be stranded in my house for three and a half days (the university finally opened for class at noon today), but at the same time, it about drove me crazy ;).
In my area, it seems that as soon as the weather gets unusual, folks forget how to drive :rolleyes:. Some folks end up in the ditch if a few snowflakes fall :crazy.
-
Another snow storm is heading for the Mid-Atlantic region, which is already under one or two feet of snow. Why does that area seem to be the only place getting a significant amount of snowfall? There's hardly any up here in Vermont, and I heard that people in Vancouver had to truck in snow for the Olympics.
-
More snow?! :blink:
Yes, that's what I'm thinking about. We've already had a ton dumped on us already in the Northeast.
-
My throat is so sore....
-
How amusing. :lol 49 out of 50 states in the U.S. have snow on the ground at this time. (Hawaii is the only one without snow)

I'm wondering about what exact kind of job it is that I will apply for tommorrow.

I'm waiting to hear back from the Student Conservation Association (SCA) to learn what internship I get and where it will be. The process could take a couple of weeks since they do a reference and criminal background checks.

I'm wondering why people tell me I'm a normal human being, yet I don't think I am.
Ever tried to define "normal" or asked anyone else to define "normal"? The word has many meanings, interpretations, and connotations varying far from positiv to negative.
Maybe you are thinking of a different interpretation of "normal" than those do who tell you that you are"normal".
-
Vermont is still the site of some odd weather. We finally got about a foot of snow on Wednesday, but following the snow came the rain. At the moment, that foot of snow has melted down to about 4 inches. <_< Why am I always right when I say, "We're gonna get snow tomorrow? It won't last."
-
I'm thinking about why people so dislike (more hate) that i uploading song from LBT on russian ... and talking about it to me in obscene messages. Ah,sometimes i think it's only cause i'm from Russia...
-
While I'm on the subject of the weather, I must say that either the reports I'm hearing are exaggerated, or I'm really lucky. Power outages due to this week's storm happened all over New England, but the power never even flickered once at my house.
-
My bird gets funnier and funnier every day :lol. I was just laughing really hard about something, and Howard told me, "Hush!" :spit. I won't dare repeat what I said to him in response :lol :lol.
-
I'm thinking about lunch. But that in itself is perplexing as I only ate breakfast three and a half hours ago.
-
I think about that i overdone a little with LBT. Especially that my awkward age is connected with it (my friend say so). And by it,my mind creating not "good" things with LBT and not "good" dreams with it :bang somehow so
-
Awkward age? Let them think so, but so long you don't ram your interest in LBT down anyone's throat it is none of their business either. I was your age when I "rediscovered" LBT and by now I am 25 (and by no means the oldest around here). Your personal interests are of no harm to others so long you don't enforce them upon others. So long you don't enforce your interests upon anyone else there isn't any harm in it, is there?
-
Thinking over my love life, wondering if I could possibly just have a "fling" with someone and not be emotionally affected. But then I wonder if I can't just have "fun" like that. :p And I wonder if I am bi or if I'm just going through a faze.
-
Baaaah I don't know what I'm thinking about. My birthday is Saturday. Thinkin' alot about that. I think I need a haircut. I think Rat_Lady's thoughts are a bit more productive than mine. I think I need better thoughts.

Very bad....thoughts....

Thinkin' about the game that I'm in pre-production for. Hope it goes good. I would like to publish my first flash development...!
-
I'm thinking about the 87 I got on a midterm exam. It's actually as good as I thought it would be. Funny thing is, had I gotten a question on "ritual murder" correct, I would have had over a 90. Yeah, I have some odd classes. :blink:
-
I'm thinking of making a science-fiction sprite movie with Mario, Luigi, Wario and Waluigi, with German dubbing of the characters, as in "Wario's YouTube Show". I think this will be a good idea since I have plenty of time in my holidays! :D
-
How crazy my cat Sasquatch is. :crazy A few minutes ago, the little nut ran down the hall, paused in front of me, then bolted again...ramming headfirst into the corner of a wall not two feet in front of him. :blink:

Why is it that folks look at me weird if and whenever I snort or giggle out loud from something on my laptop in the hallway :lol?
-
It's a gorgeous day out, only half the class has shown up, and yet the instructor STILL wants to keep us in a classroom for an hour and fifteen minutes so we can talk about tidal waves! What's worse is this instructor prohibits the use of laptops unless you've got an exemption from Disability Services. Grrr... :bang.

Okay, so a few minutes ago, as I was parking in the parking garage before walking to class, this thug look-alike on a cell phone whipped around the corner and almost hit me, but he had the balls to blow his horn at me as if I almost hit him :bang! What a *slew of profanities*. I hope he gets his one day for acting stupid :slap.

I just found out it was an April Fool's joke to piss her aunt off :oops. Still, the thought of it is funny :lol.
-
With April fools jokes I think that in some cases it wouldn't hurt some people if they had a little more sense of humor for those kinds of April fools pranks that don't do any harm or cause serious disappointment.
Pranks that cause an real damage or factual problem are certainly not funny. If there was for example a pretense that the GOF was gone with a page making up such a claim and not only giving a severe fright to members but also denying them access to the GOF for a whole day I totally agree that this would not be funny. The same goes for the kind of stuff that one just doesn't make jokes about (e.g. any sort of pretense that someone was dead or injured) or something that will cause severe disappointment if revealed as a mere prank (e.g. any pretense about information of a new LBT movie or the like).
If none of these apply I will admit that I would roll my eyes over those who cannot muster the humor to just laugh along over a prank.
Arguably the April fools joke of 2008 (GOF admins getting in a staged fight over a ridiculously silly matter and banning each other) drove matters too far as people were really terrified about that one. In our defense I must say that even without thinking of the date immediately anyone who knew us (or even had read the countless expressions of appreciation for each other that could have been found all over the GOF at that time already) should have had a relatively easy time to see that one for the prank it was.
Some pranks are too obvious to be REALLY funny because you know the moment you see it that it isn't real (e.g. when last year the background and topic of the GOF was changed to a Watership Down board). Other jokes can actually direct attention to actual problems (e.g. when a made up member's birthday got just the acclaim that a real and active member would get).
Refusing all "take it easy" kind of spirit about a humorous prank just out of principle is a rather sad principle as far as I am concerned.

I just had an utterly stupid but hilarious thought.
Imagine something along our human habits of April Fools and Easter celebrations in the Great Valley. Imagine eggs being switched or hidden away there. Now that would be some real pandemonium there, wouldn't it? :lol
-
Earlier I was thinking about how the LBT dinosaurs might celebrate Easter, and came to the realization that most of them would probably consider practices like the Easter egg hunt extremely perverse and morbid. Think about it: from their perspective, they would be hard-boiling their unborn young, painting them different colors, hiding them in scattered locations for their children to find (who would essentially be searching for their dead younger siblings :blink:), and eventually eating them along with other treats shaped like eggs and small animals. An exception would be the egg-stealers; the holiday would probably be their favorite event of the year. :p As for the other, non-egg-eating species, however, I seriously doubt they would want anything to do with it.

How good the Chili's baby back ribs look. :P:

I'm thinking about school and how sh**ty it is and how I can't wait for it to end in 9 weeks. I'm also thinking about a computer I'm about to pick up and how much the guy really knows about computers. I'm thinking I might be able to get him to lower the already ridiculously low price of $195 if I play my cards right. I'm wondering whether I should approach him as a technician or pose as a regular Joe. It'll depend on his knowledge. If he knows a decent amount about computers, I'll pose as a regular Joe and just try to innocently get the price down. If he doesn't know a lot, I'll approach him as a technician and find flaws that might persuade him to lower the price. I'm aiming for $100-$150...hopefully in the lower range of that. :smile
EDIT:
This is the machine:

What?! :blink: :huh: :wow Is it a pet? How big is is it? What species of tortoise (if you know)? Tell us more, please! :yes
Nah, it wasn't a pet. My mom just came bangin' in my room when I was almost asleep and threw a tortoise on my bed and said "Check this out". He was pretty small. Easily palmed. It was a Gopherus Polyphemus, or, Gopher tortoise. They're all over the place. Even though their conservation status is listed as Vulnerable.

^ That is so cool! :wow What did you end up doing with it? (Seeing as it's a wild tortoise, you should probably release it close to where your mom originally found it.)
-
She found it in our yard. Since that's not a very safe place for a land turtle, we walked it up our driveway and put him out there.
Anyway! No more turtle talk! Back to the subject at hand!

-
Huh, now this is a interesting article I just read. Apparently, sitting in a chair is unhealthy.
http://news.yahoo.com/s/bw/1019b4177071221162 (http://news.yahoo.com/s/bw/1019b4177071221162)
So....what is healthy now a days?
-
A lot of things:
*Whether my response to a certain letter made sense. :unsure
*I need to clean my desk and my room again, it's getting all cluttered again. :P:
*How I want my visit to the doc's to be like
*The play I am in.
*Wondering when a certain friend on FB is going to respond.
*How is it that I have so many friends and aquantinces when I hardly EVER hang out with them? o.O
*I still can't stand the fact I spell certain words wrong and say certain words wrong. I really don't know what that's about. <_<
*Why does there need to be suffering to know peace? Why does there need to be starvation to know about being full? Why does there need to be bad to know good?
-
Also wondering when a certain person on FB is going to respond.
-
Why is it that I so often have nightmares about myself or others drowning? This has been going on for years now, and I suspect it's influenced by my fear and past experience with dark water <_<.
-
Big, big, big, big waaaater :o
Anyway, I'm thinkin' about my day.
-
^*snorts* Okay, that make me giggle. :DD
I'm thinking about my day as well and all of the stuff I need to do.
Also, I am thinking of getting off my butt and getting more pizza!!!!!!
-
LOL, funny one Alex :lol!
I'm thinkin' 'bout a strange and sad dream I had right before I woke up, and about how today's my last day at my current job. You'd think that, after nearly six years of me being a loyal employee to the company, that they'd be willing to grant me a leave of absence for about four months for somethin' entirely college-related (my internship in Wyoming). Oh, well. I'd have to seek other employment sooner or later, but still...oh, well.
Also, I can't bring any of my pets with me. They're not allowed in the apartment complex. On top of that, I'll be with three female roommates, so I'm not sure if they'd like Howard's singing or Pepper's love of being a lapwarmer. So...a lot to think about besides what to bring :p.
-
Also, I am thinking of getting off my butt and getting more pizza!!!!!!
That statement is my life in a nutshell. I want that on my engraved on my tombstone. :idea
Thinkin' bout what I'm gonna do for the rest of the day.
-
I'm thinking about the possibility that my family (well, my mother and brother) could be moving to a place where it is hard for me to see them. It is only a possibility. Right now, a 50/50 chance. Long story.
-
I'm sick and tired of all of these maniac sonic fangirls and fanboys. :-/
I'm also LOLing at Everybody Loves Raymond.
-
I've been away from the GOF for too long. :blink:
I'm kind of hungry. (Why? I just ate an hour and a half ago! :confused)
I want to sleep.
But first I must look at every new thread and post made on the GOF since last Thursday!
There's a bunch of threads and a PM I need to respond to as well.
When am I going to find time to help clean the house? :blink:
I can't think of anything else to say. :P:
-
I'm thinking about that:
Will my upcoming music album be successful? I have just finished it... 31 Songs and 2 covers (front and back). But the official release will be before the end of June. I hope I didn't waste the time with this album.
-
OOOHOOO Waluigifan are you someone famous and spectacularly good?????????? :p
I bet. All you famous guys probably have alter egos and aliases and all that jazz so you can have fun like the rest of us non-famous type peeps without getting noticed. You sneaky turkeys :p
What kind of album is it? Are you a singer or guitarist or drummer or what?
-
No, I absolutely can't sing. xD
You'll be shocked, but... I also can't play an instrument. The album is completely produced by the computer with several programs, I've used loops and VST plugins (synthesizer, drum machine, guitar, etc). to create songs.
It's a very multi-variant album with genres like Electronic, Ambient, Beat, Chillout, Experimental, Disco House, Rock and 70s Funk.
Topic:
I'm thinking about my driving test tomorrow. If I fail again, I have to wait 3 months until I can try the driving test again.
-
Well that's still cool doncha know!!
The Gorillaz or whatever they're called- that's what they are right? They're a whole bunch of computerized sounds mixed together into one big montage. Or at least that's what I thought..... does anybody know for sure?
Good luck on the album!!
And good luck on the driving test too!
-
I'd love to go for a run and see how my lungs can handle it at 8,000 and higher feet above sea level (where I live is at sea level, but here in the Rockies it's much higher up). Elevation does not affect me, probably in part that my ancestors and even living relatives lived in the Smoky Mountains. I can power walk and still feel okay. However, we're havin' a snow storm so I think I'll stay in :p. Besides, I feel like my blood sugar's dropping so I'd better eat something :p.
-
Wondering why I have been prolonging buying the newest Gorillaz album. Already have their first two albums and had completely forgotten about their third released album.
-
I'm thinkin' about the 9 or so more school days 'til I leave that school foreverrrr.
-
I'm thinking how weird I look when I type up in my journal. Other people seem to be so natural at it...but I don't know...I just feel weird typing up in a journal. I feel like some whiny 13 year old typing in her dumb diary. <_<
-
About what Alex was saying that the Lost series involves time travel as well....and I'm thinking why? It's bad enough as it is, but time travel? Ugh....
-
How a beered-up Ducky would act :blink: :lol.
-
I think I need to clean my ears, all day I kept hearing things that weren't said at all. :blink:
-
Very...random...things :crazy :lol.
-
One word, and one word only....
"Meow"
Don't ask me why :blink:
-
I'm wondering how I can top "cuddly widdles" and "wattling kiddles"...boy, are those gut-churning pet names adorable :lol . Thank you, Mr. Chippy WASP-man for making me think these things :p
-
I got me a printer with a scanner, so now I've gotta make some new fanart and show it off here :D.
-
I really do believe animals are much smarter than humans give 'em credit for. For example, when I called home the other day, I had my mother put the phone on speaker phone so I could talk to my bird Howard. She told me that, as soon as I started speaking to him, he started to kiss the speaker part of the phone and would not stop. I wish I was allowed to bring him out with me :cry.
Now, for a funny (and true!) story about animal intelligence. A couple of weeks ago, I was taking pictures of prairie dogs in Yellowstone National Park. There was this REALLY fat (probably morbidly obese) prairie dog, and I could not get his attention so I only got a picture of his back. After making sure nobody else was around, I called out to him: "Look here, fata**!" And guess what? He turned around right away and posed for me :blink:! I even have the pictures to prove it :lol.
So...yup, animal intelligence is what is currently on my mind ;).
-
How to justify the use of stone weapons by Twilight Valley dinosaurs.

my dog loves to pose for pictures..

I got me a printer with a scanner, so now I've gotta make some new fanart and show it off here :D.
Awesome! I can't wait! :smile
I really do believe animals are much smarter than humans give 'em credit for.
I second that opinion. :yes At the moment, I can't think of any real-life experiences with animals of my own at the moment to argue that point (I can think of some possible examples involving Sasquatch, but I'm not entirely confident that they're indicative of intelligence), but I definitely believe it.
Ehh . . . what am *I* thinking about right now? Well . . . I'm trying to write a review for a chapter of a fanfiction, and I'm thinking hard about how to put my thoughts in words. :unsure:
-
I really do believe animals are much smarter than humans give 'em credit for.
I generally agree, but one thing that I think humans need to abandon is the idea of animals thinking along exactly the same lines as humans do in order to qualify as intelligent. Some humans "project" humanness onto animals too much.
-
^ This is food for a new thread, but I suspect that's one of the reasons humans don't always recognize intelligence in other species, because most animals' minds work differently than ours'. Thus we tend to anthropomorphize, perceiving human-like behavior or qualities in animals as indicators of intelligence.
I'm trying to get my sleep schedule back to normal, and I'm thinking about how I can keep myself awake for the rest of the day. :blink:
-
Trying to think of my Antz/Bug's Life crossover...and wondering if I should include my OC somewhere around them.

ï I need to work on my votes for the 2010 GOF Awards. I had hoped to post them yesterday or today yesterday or the day before. :slap
EDIT: Oops, it's midnight. Gotta edit that. :rolleyes
ï I have to read and review the latest chapter of Far Away Home (something I'm very excited about :smile).
ï I was going to watch a show with my brother; I hope we'll have time for it. :unsure:
ï We could really use a “thinking” emoticon. :p
-
I just spent the afternoon editing my entire fanfic here on GoF, so everyone can read the finalized version that has already been on fanfiction.net for a while. To do it in one afternoon, I did it at a rate of one chapter every five minutes! :wow :wow :wow After all that, I feel like I just ran a marathon or something like that.
-
Thinking about moving into my new house tomorrow. I hope it's tomorrow, at least. Better be tomorrow.
-
I think I was a witness to evidence that Darwin was wrong yesterday :bang.
Okay, here's what happened. Some park visitor came up to me. The following conversation IS real and REALLY happened:
Visitor: "Are we allowed to approach bears?"
Me: "No, sir. Don't ever go any closer than three-hundred feet or one-hundred yards to a bear, or any of the wildlife for that matter."
Visitor: "Well, I saw a bear earlier. I was in my car and I got out to see the bear. I was probably twelve meters from the bear."
Me: "Oh, that's way too close. In that case, the best thing to do is get back in your car and view the bear that way."
Visitor: "I was only twelve meters away. Does this mean I can get closer to the bear?"
*By this point, I feel like going: :slap*
Me: "No, don't ever approach a bear. They're very dangerous."
Visitor: "Bears have big teeth and big claws, right?"
Me: "They sure do."
Visitor: "But bears are slow, right?"
Me: "No way. They're known to charge up to forty-five miles-per-hour."
This was literally the visitor's reaction::huh:... :blink:... :o... :bolt
He ran to his family and he yelled somethin' like "Oh my gosh!" and started chattering in (I think) Chinese (I think they were from China, anyway :unsure:) as he made himself look like a bear while running in place. I eventually heard him yell "Forty-five mile-per-hour!"
His family: :!
Me: :blink:
I had started to wonder if I had put the fear of God in him about bears :unsure:.
-
Let's see. I'm thinkin' about:
*I know what my next overseas trip will be, but it will take me a couple of years to save up enough money for a forty-seven day trip to twenty countries :neutral.
*Along the same lines of finances, I hate bein' broke. It'll be nice to be outta college. Sure, I'll be using student loans for grad school, but at least I can make monthly payments instead of putting at least three-fourths of my paychecks into my credit card to pay the school tuition :rolleyes.
*What my next vehicle will be...when that time comes :p.
*At the end of the day, life is still good ;).
-
About how close I was to getting a certain trophy on Prototype.....but no, had to press the wrong button and screw it up completely....was suppose to stealth consume someone but he grabbed him and caused the alarm to be raised, which is not what I wanted to happen, and to make it worse, once the alarm stopped, I never raise it again for the mission :bang
That, and a sentence from SpongeBob where he and Patrick learn a dirty word, which is most likely, the F-word, since SpongeBob says this: "Hey Squidward, how the *dolphin noise* are ya?", I just can't get over it...a swear word on SpongeBob pretty much :lol
-
I'm thinking about flash cards for the Nintendo 3DS. I hope that flash cards like R4DS will be produced for the new handheld.
-
What I forgot to buy at the store today, mainly juice :bang. Well, if the weather's nasty again tomorrow, I'll head back into town to do some more shopping. If the weather holds up, I'll do some outdoor activities first :angel.
-
49 out of 50 hint collectables that I have found in Prototype....where could that last one be....and why does Time Square itself have to have so many collectables to find? I'm sure the last one is around there somewhere.....
-
This happened a couple of weeks ago, but it just now crossed my mind.
I just thought about this older male in the apartment next to mine that was kind enough to wake me up BEFORE 8AM on one of my days off by using a power sander in the room of his unit opposite the wall where the head of my bed is :bang :rolleyes. If I wasn't too lazy to crawl outta bed, I probably would've gone and knocked on his door, but he probably would not have heard me since he used the darn thing for over half an hour :crazy.
Seriously, what is it with some folks and feelin' the need to use power tools before 8AM and waking everybody up around 'em :rolleyes:?
-
That and playing very loud music, even at times after midnight. Many humans are very inconsiderate.
-
I was just thinking about how silly some anime plotlines are. I mean, in Yu-Gi-Oh, the plot is focused around CARD GAMES for CHILDREN.
-
That and playing very loud music, even at times after midnight. Many humans are very inconsiderate.
Oh, you took the words right out of my mouth there. Last night, ugh, people next door....which might I add, is right next door, we live in a flatting unit area.
Anyways, that's what they do, party and play music without a care in the world....which was around midnight too when I went to get some shut eye.
-
How much of an arrogant prick the PokÈmon fan fiction author Farla is.
And how awesome Latias' Journey is.
-
It's so sad to hear about twenty-something year-olds getting Botox done. They don't even need it :slap! Unless it is for a medical reason, I don't see myself ever getting any work done. I'd rather age gracefully then look like Barbie at age eighty. Wrinkles are merely signs of where smiles and laughs have been :).
BTW, I'm glad I never listened to those superfake girls who bashed pale folks for the "pasty" look. I may be pale, but at least I still look my age or younger while some of them already look like they're sixty :crazy.
-
Things on my mind right now:
ï I slept for around six hours today, waking up to participate in an extremely belated celebration of my brother's 20th birthday. Now I'm starting to feel tried again (apparently six consecutive hours of sleep in a nearly 50-hour period isn't enough :p) So yeah, I'll probably be conking out again pretty soon.
ï What a mess my bedroom is. :blink: Having not been in there in a while (I've been sleeping on the sofa because my bed's all cluttered up), I went in today to get something, and realized just how bad it was. Cleaning it out definitely has a major spot on my “to do” list this summer.
ï I learned a new word (or phrase) the other day: “uff da” (pronounced “oof da”), an all-purpose exclamation of Norwegian origin, supposedly very commonly used among Minnesotans. Neither I nor my brother (who introduced the term to me) has heard anyone in Minnesota use it, :confused but many of the Minnesotan students at his college in Wisconsin apparently do. I rather like the word, and may start using it as one of my catchphrases. :p
ï I'm also amazed by just how much posting I've done lately: I've made over 100 posts in the last two weeks :wow (accounting for about 5.5% of the total GOF posts made in that time :blink:).
-
I sometimes forget why I very, very seldom watch the news or read any negative headlines. It brings out one of two reactions in me:
*I cry hard while cursing out cruel members of humankind.
or
*I feel a violence fetish come over me that makes me wanna rampage and knock the said culprit into the next galaxy.
-
ï I'm hoping I did well on my GRE (Graduate Record Exam) today. :unsure:
ï Having found out last night that I didn't get the job I had applied for, :( I'm wondering what I should do next.
ï I'm thirsty. :p
EDIT: Another thing I'm thinking: Would this particular post be more appropriate for the “How are you feeling?” page? :confused
-
Okay, this guy in the lobby keeps on ripping very loud farts while he uses his laptop as if he's the only one around :x! What's worse is that everybody else looks like they could care less. Maybe I should just put my earbuds in and listen to some Disturbed and look as indifferent about the farting as the others :idea.
Still, its so rude :bang.
-
I'm thinking about why Archive.org put my music album in the section "ourwork" to "images" and not into "audio". o.O
-
Thinking about getting a new laptop or a small netbook as a second choice... :unsure:
I also wonder why we can't post comments on the 2010 Award winners? :huh:
-
I also wonder why we can't post comments on the 2010 Award winners? :huh:
I kinda wondered that too
Right now I'm trying to answer that age old question... should I paint more Warhammer 40k stuff or write more Far Away Home?
-
^ Far Away Home! Far Away Home! Please, please, please!
:p
Ehhh . . . anyway . . . I'm thinking about various threads on the GOF and the posts I plan to make in them. And also about numerous other things I need to do, have been planning to do, and/or need to be concerned about. :unsure:
-
I'm thinking about if "White Vibes" would be a good title for a music album? :unsure:
-
I should've gone running today, but I skipped it to sit outside and draw some fanart. Now I feel like a raging idiot who is in a setting in which she needs to internalize her feelings :crazy.
-
Tomorrow I’m leaving on a trip to Ely with my familyófor which I’ll be gone two days and one nightóand I’m trying to decide whether I should bother to post a thread in the “Lands Unknown” section to notify people about it. :unsure:
-
I wish you a save and happy trip, Pangaea! :wave
As for me, I'm thinking how I should plan my summer, hmm...
-
I'm thinkin' 'bout what to do for my next fanart pieces and how to improve them :unsure:.
-
I'm thinking about . . .
ï All the fanfictions I need (or have planned) to review. :blink
ï Whether or not to offer feedback in Cancerian Tiger's art thread. :unsure:
ï How long it's been since I posted pictures of Sasquatch in the "Show Us Your Critters!" thread. :o
ï I didn't manage to finish that post on Ruby before its first birthday. :bang I have GOT to get that done this summer.
-
I just made the a nice little discovery. I found what excessive amounts of free disk space the old save games of one game I like to play take on my laptop's. All of a sudden my always stuffed harddrive has more than 21GB of free disk space :D
-
I'm thinking about the thief who tried to steal the flowerpots this morning (4 AM). I'm sure that the flowerpots were too heavy for the thief (I've heard some strange noise, then it was quiet). Next time I'll use a club to strike the thief down. I hope that he or she come back so I know who steals the flowerpots.
-
^ I would think that it would be better if the thief never came back at all, so that you wouldn't have to worry about the flowerpots being stolen.
Right now, I'm wondering what was making those strange, squabbly-sounding screeches I was hearing in the distance outside the window a few moments ago. :blink: (Sasquatch is inside, so whatever conflict is going on, at least I know he's not a part of it.)
-
We seem to have a lot of GOF stardays in July :blink:.
-
I am thinking about:
-Yesterday and how all strange and scary it was.
-Calling the doc and what to say to him.
-My fanfiction and story ideas.
-What to have for breakfast besides fruit and cheese. :p
-
^
Oh no, hope it isn't serious Amy. Good luck.
Erm..weird thought but why is it that I have a sudden interest in mummies...not egyptian mummies either..
-
Hope it's not too serious, Amy :unsure:.
As for me, I'm looking for winter seasonal work on USAJobs ;). I've already applied for a position in Death Valley National Park in California, and now I'm about to apply for a position in Florida.
-
RL7, I hope what happened was not too serious.
-------------------
As for me, what edits to make to the latest chapter of PokÈ Wars: the Recrudescence. Note, that I did not write this story; I am merely editing it.
-
^^^Seriously, it's okay guys, I was just having those days I guess. :p
-
^
Good luck Anna with your application.:)
-
^ Thanks :smile!
Right now, I'm thinkin' 'bout this random case of the giggles I'm getting, which is not anything new with me :DD.
-
I'm thinking about how close I am to getting a Littlefoot 'King' picture.
Man thats a lot of posts.
-
I'm thinking about picking up the 35th Case Closed volume this week.
-
I've got Rammstein's "Du Hast" stuck in mi cabeza. Quite a catchy tune ;).
-
If I should put forward an idea for a Toy Story based RP or not <_<
-
I'm thinking about:
-Pangaea's review on my intro of my Fan Fiction
-Tomorrow
-Getting offline right now.
-Watching Shark Tale, I haven't seen that film in ages
-How I felt a bit annoyed and uneasy watching LBT 7. For some reason I really...did not like it at that point. Maybe it's just because I've seen it so many times. xD
-Writing ideas
-
As my 24th starday approaches, I'm thinkin' 'bout how fortunate I am to have the genes I have. My biological mother is 40 years old but still looks 25 years old. So far my age has not caught up with me either, and I hope it remains that way. Still, even when the day comes that I start lookin' aged, I'm gonna do it gracefully instead of try to look like Barbie :yes.
-
Thinking about how to do my latest chapter of my crack fic and how to update Chapter 6 of TWV.
-
Sasquatch (our cat) is being an absolute household menace tonight. :blink: :lol
-
^Your cat is awesome! He reminds me of my big guy. :3
I'm thinking about a lot if things. Like what are the responses of certain people going to be like. I'm thinking about how people just sometimes don't understand certain viewpoints.
-
What's on my mind right now:
*This job I want reeeeeeeeeally badly. I hope I get it!
*A story I'm revising.
*Why some people can't seem to be 100% happy for an individual for his or her accomplishments.
-
I am going to hate going into that dreaded glitched room underneath the Charms classroom in Lego Harry Potter Years 1 - 4.
That....and how in the hell have I managed to accumulate over 1 billion studs on the game too? :lol
-
I'm not sure I'll ever fully understand people (who does :rolleyes:?), especially their fear of someone or something "different". I guess I'm sick of hearing people encourage other people to "Be Yourself!" and then trash those who dare to be unique or different.
It almost seems like many think it's okay to be yourself, but to not be any different than the next person who comes along :rolleyes, as if being different is a virus. I'm not sure I'm making any bit of sense right now :rolleyes. I'm just tired of there being so much hypocrisy about uniqueness within the human race.
-
I honestly can't understand how my dental health got so bad so quickly. On the checkup before my most recent one, I was told that everything was good. After my most recent checkup in May, I've had three fillings in the last month, and earlier today I got a temporary crown for a bottom left back tooth. (I'll get the permanent one in on August 18.) This is the first time I've ever gotten one.
-
I'm thinking about what I'm going to draw for pokeplayer984's LBT tribute, and how I'm going to finish it in time. :unsure: :neutral

More things I'm thinking…
ï Whoa! The “Land Before Time” section on this forum has been really inactive for the last eight hours! :blink:
ï Did I remember to take my medication yesterday? :unsure:
ï What is it with the refrigerators in our house?! First the one downstairs croaked on us and won't keep anything cold, and now the upstairs one won't chill a soda you place on the left of the shelf, but will turn it to slush if you place it closer to the right! :mad
ï When is StarfallRaptor next going to post in the “Wayfaring Strangers” RP? :unsure:
ï What should I post in the “In The Land Before Time” RP? :confused
ï Why must I procrastinate on everything?! :bang

What am I thinking?
-I probably should read Beowulf and do some summer school. >.>
-I'm going to miss my brother. :( I wish he didn't have to leave.
-Why can't I get a relationship? What am I not good enough for people? :rolleyes
-About the rp

I'm sorry about your bro man. And don't feel sorry about not having a good mate. I seem to be losing my best friend to another old friend of his. I'm not jealous, just a little observant.

I made a rather ugly discovery last night. I have a bed with several drawers underneath which is rather handy to store stuff. Yet I also live in a cellar-room where air humidity is rather high and yesterday I found that the underside of the drawers is covered with mildew :x
Now I hope that I can get rid of this rather unhealthy fungi :unsure:
-
I hope this heat wave ends soon. I'm getting tired of my living couch next to the window mounted air conditioner being a better place to sleep than my own bed.

I hope this heat wave ends soon. I'm getting tired of my living couch next to the window mounted air conditioner being a better place to sleep than my own bed.
The weather here has been really hot too. Funny thing is, that's unusual for where I live. Right now it's just foggy, but I seem to be hot ALL THE TIME when it's time to go to bed. I'm still trying to figure out why. :confused
-
About my embarrassing moment on the job today, which can be found in more detail in the "Embarrassing Moments" thread in the AM Section :oops :slap.

I'm really starting to crave Cheetos right now, so much to the point that I keep thinkin' 'bout Jeff Foxworthy's "Naked Eating Cheetos" stand-up gig :rolleyes. Cheetos give me bad heartburn (it's the cheese, durrr :p), but they taste so good at the same time and I don't know what it is :lol.
-
I'm so happy about Prop 8 being called back! :smile
And the fact that the judge himself made the comment, "I'm not being given any good reason why this proposition should stay." it makes me laugh :lol

I get so sick of drama. It seems to ruin even the happiest of news :rolleyes. But, I just can't bring myself to pretend to like those who I don't even have any respect for :crazy.
-
A couple of things:
*I've been seriously procrastinating on getting any fanart made :rolleyes.
*Job searching keeps me so busy.
*I need to continue on my story but have no motivation right now :bang.
-
I just realized my brain is busted and the smoke is clouding my thought processes, so I'm too scared to post my current "thoughts" :confused.
See what three nights of really poor sleep can do to someone :p?
-
How I got CT here, confused in the "The Person Above Me" thread.....getting her to get confused that she thought that I was LBTFan13.....because of sharing similar avatars :lol:
I shall say this....they're similar because they're of the same person actually, Albert Wesker, Resident Evil 5 version :lol
-
I'm thinking about today and what an amazing journey it was.
And I think I saw something there, like a spirit of something, all I saw was a flash of light near the dark cells, you never know... :unsure:

What the heck happened to the "In The Land Before Time" and "Wayfaring Strangers" RPs?! :blink: :huh: No one's posted in the former since Wednesday, and the latter seems to have ceased activity entirely! :( I'd really like to keep posting in both of these, but I need other players to be posting as well.
Another thing that's been on my mind lately is, "Where the heck are all these stinkin' flour moths coming from?!" Every night these little bugs are attracted to the light of my computer screen, and crawl all over it (only a few at any one time, but new ones continually show up as I squash their predecessors). Where's a house gecko or a trained bat when you need one? :rolleyes
-
:crazy Soon the Black Cauldron is.. Going to drive me crazy! :crazy

Ideas for more fanart. I have this wild idea of "LBT Ducky Meets Rubber Ducky", and now I just gotta figure out the rest :lol.

I was watching an episode of Justice League: Unlimited when a memory reappeared.
Here is the episode I was watching. It starts off in Hephaestus's forge and Ares walks in. Now, listen to the voice of Ares and tell me if it rings a bell.

I think I need to stay out of the "Top Ten Characters You Hate" thread. The more I view it, the more pissed off I get. Not sure if PMS could be adding to my feelings, 'cuz it normally takes a lot more than that to piss me off. I think I just need to stay out of there...period <_<.
-
^ I'm sorry you feel this way. And it's actually my time of the month too, so it has been an interesting week for me too... I too would get mad when people seemed to diss a character I liked, but I really had to seperate myself from my favorite character(s) like Pterano, sure I feel bad when someone says they don't like him, but it took me awhile to seperate myself from it. Feel free to pm me about it. I apologize ahead of time. :(
I'm thinking of the work I have to do tommorrow, I'm seeing Wicked the musical this weekend, and I really shouldn't talk about certain characters here if all I am going to upset others. I wanted to word it as gently as I could, but I guess it didn't work.
-
^Don't feel too bad about it. It's not your fault, and everybody has the right to their opinions. It seems to be in my nature to feel defensive if somebody I like, whether a RL person or a character, is dissed by anybody. I probably have a problem with taking the dissing of a character I like personally, especially one in which I see many of my characteristics in. I sometimes have to step back and remember that the character being dissed is not me and that the other prson is not trying to make a personal attack against me. And when that time of the month comes around and makes me weird, it also makes me much more sensitive than normal. So, it's really not your fault or anybody else's fault ;).
Back on subject. Job hunting is so frustrating :bang.

:add

*Job hunting is so frustrating. I hate not hearing anything back except for responses saying I'm qualified for the job but am not their most qualified applicant :bang.
*PMS sucks big time :confused.
*I really need to just shut up sometimes :rolleyes.
*I've been nauseated on and off all evening. I'm not sure why :unsure:.
*Maybe getting off the computer and doing some yoga will help me out of this awful mood swing :idea.

ï It’s been way too quiet on the GOF lately. :(
ï I wish Rat_lady7 was still around. :cry
ï Why haven’t Malte or Cancerian Tiger responded to the questions I posted in their “Ask Me” threads? :unsure:
ï Looks like my “Funniest things you’ve said or heard (http://www.gangoffive.net/index.php?topic=8247)” thread is a complete failure. :rolleyes

ï Why haven’t Malte or Cancerian Tiger responded to the questions I posted in their “Ask Me” threads?
In my case because of simple forgetfulness. Sorry about that :oops

Pangy, i miss-read "Death Valley" as "Darth Vader".. :blink:
Jeez, i really feel bad for the Black Cauldron.. It's coming out on the 14th(I so happy!) and i have not seen any commerciels for it. Prince of Persia on the other hand? Lots of commerciels there! :nyah It's no wonder that movie isn't populer if Disney treats it like that.. :unsure:
Wow. General Woundwort was probably my least favorite character in Watership Down. But after watching all the episodes of the TV Series, i think he was my favoritest character in it! :p
Ugh, the Skeksis from the Dark Crystal are so difficult when your trying to make little icons of them.. :crazy (Kinda like my Horned King and Maleficent ones..)
Soon the Black Cauldron will be mine.. Dang nab it.. Soon the Black Cauldron will drive me insane!
It's pretty sad that i get very skittery when playing Morrowind, isn't it? I tell ya, the game gives me nightmares sometimes! Do you know how awful it is, trying to swing your sword at a bunch of bandits and doing no damage to them while they're pretty much ganging up on you and killing you right off the bat? being chased by wild animals and running at walking speed? Or wandering in a dark cave and all of a sudden have a skeleton fall ontop of your characters head all of a sudden? Boy oh boy.. :blink:
Hehehehe, It's so much fun roleplaying as the Horned King! :nyah
I read someplace that there will be a movie in 2013 called "Rats of NIHM".. Having watched(and loved!) Don Bluth's "The Secret of N.I.H.M", im not sure if this is a cool idea or a bad idea..

ï It’s been way too quiet on the GOF lately. :(
I'll admit, it has been a bit quiet since I first came here. But you know what I think?
...I think I need a vacation from this mandatory lifestyle.
-
Personally, I don't mind the less-than-usual activity of this forum these days. Less stuff for me to keep up with, which is good when I have to focus on college.
I'm also thinking about how nobody on this forum seemed to have even mentioned what happened nine years ago yesterday.
-
ï Why haven’t Malte or Cancerian Tiger responded to the questions I posted in their “Ask Me” threads?

I'm thinking: What other files has my computer screwed up that I don't know about? <_< :mad :anger :unsure: :wacko
-
I'm thinking about my MP4-Player... it's broken!
My Samsung YP-S3 is broken!!! I can't believe it! It is recognized by Windows, but the directory of the player cannot be shown, so I'm not able to copy/remove files on the player!
Well, I've decided to buy a new one, but... oh my god... it's way too expensive!! The Samsung M1 (http://www.samsung.de/de/Privatkunden/Mobil/MP3MP4Player/MP4Player/ypm1/YP-M1/detail.aspx?atab=specifications) costs about Ä249!! :anger
-
I’m thinking…why the freakin’ heck is it so dang silent around here?! :blink: :huh: :unsure: :confused
Seriously, it seems like there’s so few people posting, so many familiar faces missing. :( I’m REALLY hoping it’s just the contrast between the comparatively freetime-rich summer and the hectic beginning of the school year.
Wow, this is the first year of my life (the first that I can remember, anyway) in which I have no school or college to go to, and I still miss summer. :neutral

I am positive that Luxord started cheating in his boss battle I had against him....those darn O commands I needed....I was certain that I got an O command and yet.....he turned me into a card regardless :(
Yes, that's what I'm thinking about at the moment :yes

The two major conflicts that I've had no choice but to put up with in the past are really eating away at me because I still have to deal with them. Both problems will never go away.

How embarrassing it is to listen to songs that I used to listen back when I was younger (around 14-15) and think that they were ''cool''.
Simple Plan, Evanescene, Steps....
Ah well, I hadn't developed taste in music like I've done then. I mostly was influenced by people in school. Although it still doesn't stop me from listening to disney soundtracks and classical music.:p

Sorry about this, but what are these little eggs in people's signatures?
-
Sorry about this, but what are these little eggs in people's signatures?
You mean like in mine? They're from an adoptables site called Dragon Cave (http://dragcave.net/). Basically you collect dragon eggs and post them in your signatures on other forums (and certain Dragon Cave “click sites”); if they receive enough views (that is, if enough people look at them), they hatch into baby dragons, which grow into adults. There are a number of dragon species or breeds you can collect; each of the individual dragons you own is listed on a “scroll” (Here's mine (http://dragcave.net/user/Pangaea)).
At the moment, I'm thinking: ………:huh:………:unsure:………:wacko……… (Basically I'm having trouble thinking at all. :P: :p)

The advent candle thing

I'm thinking:
If there's one thing I've seen too much of this week, it's porn. :x I can respect people's differences and let the guys in the nearby dorm rooms like what they like, but I don't like having such a thing practically shoved in my face every day! :x
I am so glad that I only have one more exam to do tomorrow morning, then I can head home for three weeks. I've had enough of having to tolerate these idiots. <_<

I just had this weird idea that maybe Rinkus is like a flamingo; his natural color is white, but he eats so much shrimp that the carotenoid pigments in them turn him pink. It gives me an idea for a story in which he returns to the Great Valley, and no one recognizes him because he's gone so long without eating shrimp that he's turned white (and maybe lost some weight as well :p), so he's able to sneak around and carry out whatever nefarious scheme he might have. :idea

But of course, the general state of my mind: *blank white space with elevator music and the occasional bad idea that will eventually be turned into a fanfic*
-
Whether or not our (Mum's, my sisters and mine) traveling plans for this evening (so we can celebrate Christmas with grandma, two uncles, an aunt and two cousins) are going to work out. Even though it is not very cold (just a few degrees celsius below zero) we got record amounts of snow over here piling up so high that almost every form of traffic on the roads, rails, or airports is grounded (and I very much hope for the road blockades to cease after Christmas).

2. Why do I find myself continually saying the word “meep”?

LBTDiclonius: Congratulations on reaching Cera level.
Although ^ is not what I'm thinking...
I recently read an article about Scientists finding that Modern Europeans share 4% of Neanderthal DNA....but I already know this, after all, they did this same research not too long ago, so why repeat it?
Another, I really want to write a whole post discussion on Alexander (the Great) but I fear that is too much of an over enthuasist action...and will have to wait for another time to discuss it..
There are other thoughts too but I prefer to share these ones.
-
alexander was a military genius, and he was probably gay.. he helped strart the blending of greek and egyptian cultures that produced the ptolmeys and cleopatra.
As for me I'm looking forward to the blizzard that passing though my area..
-
Nick, is that a hint for a thread starter? If so, then I'll gladly do one. I just wasn't sure where to put it or if people would respond.:)

My yummy chili recipe :p. I'm participating in a chili throw down at my workplace this Friday, and I hope mine comes out the best :smile.
I'm thinking about how incredible and ironic it is that I wasn't thinking at all about this post when I thought of the idea that led to this question (http://gangoffive.net/index.php?showtopic=6411&view=findpost&p=9223467) I just posted in CT's “Ask Me” thread. :blink:
-
I'm thinking about how much my outfit on Lord of the Rings Online makes me look like the Horned King.. Except wearing blue.. :p
-
I'm currently kind of fascinated with my left ringfinger. Two days ago I had a little accident getting a splash of hot oil on it while cooking. It doesn't hurt much but it looks really fascinating. There is a huge blister on it now and I can't help but marvel at this ingenious way in which the body fixes itself. Cushioning the injured part of the finger under a soft blister of blister water keeping it clear of any germs... I can't help but marvel at it however uncomfortable it may look... speaking of which I am also wondering why the own injuries never look nearly as disturbing as injuries others may have.
-
I'm thinking…
Maybe I should trim my mustache. It keeps getting in my mouth. :p

I've noticed that we're just a little more than a thousand posts away from a total forum post count of 300,000. :celebrate
-
Sorry for double posting.
I just noticed that my two most recent posts were both the 300th reply in both topics, making them the first post on the 16th page on both topics. :blink: Now that's a really creepy coincidence. :wow
Also, just 740 posts left to go before we reach 300,000.
-
the basketball games I'll be scorekeeping for tomorrow night. We will likely reach 300k this week..
-
At the moment, I'm having trouble thinking at all. :wacko My mind's main contents are, unfortunately, concerns about various tasks and responsibilities that I have to attend to: my proofreading job, sending PMs, posting in the RP, starting the rock tumbler… :unsure:
Also, this is my 3,333rd post. The 21st schnappszahl! :smile :p

Right now I'm wondering why I'm reading other's posts. And how come I can't draw birds.... :blink:
-
you're reading them partly out of boredom Ithink.
-
Taking another look, I see that we are now exactly 500 posts away from 300,000.
-
and I am less than 150 away from 30K. will i get to 30k before the board reaches 300k stay tuned :lol:
-
Looks like you were right, nick. We have just 75 posts left to go before we reach 300,000, but I can see that you now have 7 more posts than 30,000. I honestly doubted it could be done, but you proved me wrong.
With just 75 posts left to go, it looks like I might not be around tomorrow to see the 300,000th post. (I'm always online in the evenings.)
-
Wow Nick! 30k posts! :wow
I'm thinking about how much I want to get to 900 posts today, and about finishing the next chapter of my story.
-
Wow. Nick did it. :wow And 106 posts ahead of schedule, too. (As far as I can determine, his 30,000th post was the GOF's 299,894th post.) Congratulations, Nick! :D
I'm actually surprised by how quiet it is on the GOF right now. :unsure: I'm trying to think of what to post. (Specifically, how to really contribute to a discussion or something; to encourage others to post. I'd like to help liven things up around here.)
-
I'm happy I don't have to go into -28 in freezing cold weather, that has a windshield that makes it feel -35 instead. However my friends would say they'll feel like loners since it's just four girls as a group. Though I had excluded a member of our group, since I never did like her. She made me have an emotinal breakdown a few months ago. And I still hate her for it, however I'm not the one who lets my emotions control me. Though her rudeness had gotten to me, in which I had endured for over 3 months straight....
Let's just say, that a dam broke and didn't stop after 3 hours passed.... <_<
-
^ Heyz! I know who you're talking about! Yeah, I really don't like her too...-_- And aren't you forgetting someone...
Now I'm thinking about World War II and if I agree or disagree with the bombing of Hiroshima and Nagiskai.
-
No I didn't forget you! :)
I know I fixed it, I was excluding myself as well. After I re-read my post I saw a small mistake, I was like "Stupid me! I have to edit it! >_<" and fixed it right away. In fact I didn't include myself at first, thats why it said 'three membered group'.
-
Okay! I see it now!
Now I'm just thinking: I want my dad to go away!
-
I'm thinking of eating something sweet. But I'm too lazy to get up and move. XD

( Sorry for the double post.)
But I'm thinking of actually going to bed, and maybe try to post in the RP. However it takes me awhile to post. And I am a tad bit sleepy....

I'm thinking about various projects that I wish I had completed months ago, and feeling frustrated and upset with myself about it. :bang
I'm also wondering why it is that I have such a hard time thinking at all nowadays. :wacko It's like I have Writer's Block, but with thinking. :mad
-
The next chapter of my fanfic that I'm currently working is now longer than any other chapter of either story I've ever written. Yet, I'm still not finished with it. I'm really hoping to have it done by Friday, but at such a great length, I might have to wait until next Friday. :unsure:
-
Wondering why it seems so quiet around here… :unsure:
-
Wondering how the next chapter of my fanfic is going to work out.
-
I've noticed something odd on this forum. The problem is most likely caused by invision instead of this forum itself, but I've noticed the clock on this forum has been falling behind recently. To prove it, I'm going to make this post at precisely 9:20 p.m.
Edit: Three minutes behind. That's enough for me to get a little concerned. :unsure:

nothing we can do about that imo..
i'm waiting for the weekend

Right now I'm wondering why it isn't all that active anymore. In fact barely anyone is on now, except me but I'm not posting as often then I did a couple of weeks ago. Now it's just quiet..just like how Pangaea described it. :unsure:
-
it comes and goes imo. we all have demands on out time, and people come on at different periods of the day
-
That Pangaea and C.C. are right, it is a little quieter around here...but that can't be helped I suppose. :unsure:
-
I've noticed something odd on this forum. The problem is most likely caused by invision instead of this forum itself, but I've noticed the clock on this forum has been falling behind recently. To prove it, I'm going to make this post at precisely 9:20 p.m.
You're right. It's three minutes slow for me, too. :o I also noticed a while back that the “most users ever online” statistic seemed to have been malfunctioning. (The record used to be “32 on Jun 21 2009, 01:51 PM”.) I think even the forum post count may be behind by a post or two. :unsure:
-
My test tomorrow.
-
Besides feeling tired, also feeling extremely awkward..
-
^^ A forum before time so to speak ;)
You shouldn't worry too much though if there are moments in which there is nobody online. Living in the other hemisphere it is quite common for me to see the GOF ocassionally with nobody else online when most of you are likely to be asleep or at school ;)
-
Soon enough I'll have to start sleeping at the faculty! A seminar ended a few minutes ago, now I'm hungry and thinking about food, and in two hours I have a class again. When the exercises begin, I'll have to add being 5-6 hours in the laboratory every day. And I need 45 minutes to get back to my little room. It simply doesn't pay off to go home...
-
Crocodiles are always hungry and the food they eat is slimy...The swiss alps...fine leather italian shoes...every little lady buys ugly, moldy, rotten burgers...never say fart, turkey looks like a turkey...the food they eat is greasy...I like to wake up in the AM...real big tarts...little bad Nosy dictators...
-
^ Ah, at first I thought you were just thinking of random things, but those are memory aids for your geography test, aren't they?

My concern is more that there seems to be less posting going on over the course of an entire day, and that certain members who were once very active posters seem to be less so nowadays. :unsure:
-
Alright, I guess I made the post in the wrong place(I thought it was the "How are you feeling?" thread.. :p)
I hate to say it, but I've kinda noticed the same as well, Pangy.. And it's not really just this forum either.. :unsure:
-
^ Ah, at first I thought you were just thinking of random things, but those are memory aids for your geography test, aren't they?
You got it! You see, if I make up little rhymes for the countries it helps me remember! Like this, every little lady buy's ugly, moldy, rotten burgers.
Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Belarus, Ukraine, Moldavia, Romania, Bulgaria.

Annd a double post. :p
Just how...quiet it is around here. :unsure:
-
Heh, the party doesn't til I come in. ^^
I'm thinking of going to bed...like....now.

Yayz! I'm at 1000 posts!

How much we NEED to get new lightbulbs...so dark...
-
To LBTDiclonius: Where is it dark?
Thinking about a future LBT project.
-
Thinking I need to get out of bed....NOW.
-
Jansanov: In my crawl space, the light is almost dead, it's already almost as dark as the room itself.
Now I'm thinking about voice crACKS.
-
Whoops :p
How funny my voice sounds. Seriously, I sound like a dying loon, my voice is just so high. :lol
-
A double post. Whoops :p
Seriously...you do not even want to KNOW what I'm thinking about. :lol
-
A double post. Whoops :p
Triple post, actually. :P:
Seriously...you do not even want to KNOW what I'm thinking about. :lol
Aw, great; now we'll all be wondering, out of curiosity, paranoia, or otherwise. :p
My mind is a tangle of panicky, frustrated, and concerned thoughts about a variety of things: reviews, housework, food, dragons, proofreading, PMs, magazine subscriptions, birthday cards, physical and mental health, RP discussion, photos, sleep… :wacko
-
108 minutes is a long time to wait.. :p
(I downloaded an emulator of The SWAN from LOST, where you have to type in the numbers 4 8 15 16 23 42 every 108 minutes)
-
...I'm thinking of wasting my life reading when I could put that time in good use....
Or
............
Waste my life more! :p
-
How happy I am to have a laptop! :D

A blizzard warning has been issued in our area. The temperature is roughly 25 degrees outside not counting wind chill. Some of the snowflakes I've seen falling are so big that they splat like tiny snowballs against a window. The wind is blowing like crazy. The quaking aspens across the driveway are living up to their name (and then some). On the ground, the gusts of wind are outlined by the snow they're blowing along. Why is my cat Sasquatch so obsessed with going outside? :blink: :confused
-
I've mentioned somewhere before (I think my art thread) that the expression of my Lystrosaurus avatar looks different to me depending on my own mood. Right now I think he looks slightly insane… :wacko
-
My daggone wireless signal keeps going out, and the weather is nice :bang :crazy!
-
How much I want to stab them painfully with a knife and watch them scream in pain as the knife peirces them over and over again...and how much I want to deflate that football. <_<
-
I really wanna make some Cajun food after watching a cooking show. Busters (fried soft-shelled crabs) with a grit dip, sweet potato pudding with praline pecan topping, red beans and rice, Cajun seafood bisque...Yum! I could go on and on. Substitute dairy alternatives, and I'll be in good shape :lol.
-
I just noticed something rather shocking on the board stats:
Most users ever online was 211 on Apr 7 2011, 07:11 PM
211 users online here at once! :wow :wow :wow :o :o :blink: :huh: That just doesn't seem right to me...
-
I remember looking on this board one morning, looking at the users on under last click, and seeing about 9 pages of guests that got on on the SAME minute!
bot invasion maybe?

While looking at this, I was thinking how amazing it is that it takes so much longer to read one sentence when it's misspelled this badly. :p
-
I'm thinking about the incoming juggernaut called "final exams", and devising a plan how to avoid being crushed under its threads.
-
My chronic inability to come up with the right words for the meanings and concepts I try to convey seems to be getting worse. :bang
-
How it's impossible to argue with stupid :slap.
-
The sheer clusterf--- that are modern baby names.
-
How my life will turn out.
-
There are times where it is very difficult to decide whether one is doing a better favor to others by talking to them or if it would be better for them if I shut up for a change :(
-
I'm thinking about when and what day I'm going to the dentist this year. And I'm a bit nervous about that. Oh boy... :unsure:
-
Thinking wether there's any point in giving out hints about what's going on in my life instead of explaining the situation fully or just not saying anything at all.
-
What to do next now that finals are over!
-
what I'm going to do this summer.. hmm be on here a lot lol
-
i'm thinking what i should to eat today.
-
I’m thinking: “Oh, phooey! I missed two members’ star days while I was gone!” :slap
Also trying to make a decision in the “In The Land Before Time” RP. :unsure:
-
I was just kind of struck by the realization that "no offense meant" probably ranks among the most frequent phrases people hear from me in a chat. Kind of wondering if I have an offensive personality of sorts :p :unsure: ;)
-
I'm thinking: I really need to rethink my daily routine, especially what I do online. I've pretty much spent the whole day reading fanfiction and news articles before finally getting on GoF less than an hour ago. I'm not in college these days, so I would like to set aside more free time, which I hope to use to write more of my fanfic and maybe even play one of my video games.
-
I'm thinking about how I'm going to have to start working again this week, and writing a paper...
-
My memory is going haywire, :wacko especially as far as thinking of the right word for a specific meaning when writing. For example, this afternoon while I was writing a review, how the heck did I manage to so easily summon the word "bandolier" (a word I've never used before), but I had so much trouble remembering "plagiarism" (a word I've used several times)? :blink:
-
I'm thinking about my fanfic. I've been debating back and forth with myself about this week's episode. There's a B plot I'd like to have in it, because it's pretty interesting, and it'd add a little action to an episode that has almost no action right now. Only thing is I don't know if it will fit in. I've really fleshed out the A-plot, more so than I thought I would, and it just might take up the whole episode itself.
Aw well, I'll see I guess.
I'm also thinking about my sister finishing up school this week, and me not having to drive her there anymore :DD
-
How much I miss Rat_lady7 not being on the GOF. I've actually been feeling this way for a long time but have not expressed it until now :neutral.
Also, other things in regards of where I am currently at in my life and where I want to be :p.
-
^ I second that. But who knows, perhaps she may be back some day. Other GOF members haven't been around for a while but returned after some months break. I do not want to pester Amy yet, but after giving her some months break I am going to invite her to return if she wants to. Sometime the encouragement of being reinvited helps.
-
Very many things at the moment:
The psychology exam I have tomorrow. I've been spending the last few days going over stats, reading up on stress, social influence and psychological disorders. I feel pretty confident about it, but I don't want to get cocky, so I'll be going over it as much as I can today.
My reinforcement plan. After I've done a solid couple of hours revising, I'm heading up to HMV to grab me the Toy Story DVD box-set, and maybe the OST for the original Transformers movie. Just for motivation, and for realising that I only have the first 2 Toy Story films on VHS.
My fanfic. It's been ages since I last did a chapter, and throughout the whole thing, I have that sort of problem where I know just what I want to happen, but I don't know how to implement and manifest it as writing. I'm also anxiously awaiting some word from my songwriters about the songs I asked him to write for it.
My Pleo. I promised the people at school that I'd bring him in to introduce him to them, and let them see what he's like, but I'm thinking about when would be a good time, and how I would do it; Do I bring him out during a form period, or do I just keep him in my locker and show him to whoever asks during recess, or what?
I'm also mulling over a rather distressing dream I had last night. The only part I remember is being chased through some sort of exhibit of dinosaur skeletons and fossils by live dinosaurs, like raptors, and another one that I didn't recognise. But the bit that haunts me is when I got out, I looked back and saw my Pleo lying on the ground on his side. I picked him up so that we could get away from the raptors and guys inside, and found that his mechanics had basically split in half and he was hanging loosely by his skin. I know he's just a robotic pet and all, but it was really distressing for me, so much so that I had to make sure that he was alright when I woke up. And that's not the first time I've ever had a dream so vivid I had to check when I woke up to determine whether it happened or not.
-
Thinking about my future and hoping I can get a job. I just applied at the Discovery Channel, and of course, took the Foreign Service exam as well. While I sort of like coasting in this limbo existence I've been in, I've really got to start getting serious about my future and getting set into a career. I'm hoping SOMETHING will pay off. This economy certainly does make it difficult though, that's for sure.
-
I'm wondering if the "In The Land Before Time" RP would be going better right now if Amy were still in charge instead of me. :unsure:
-
I think i should serve more function for the community (in the way of getting a job) to give me money in the pocket. :exactly
-
How many things can turn up when you search, Land Before Time Wallpapers." :blink:
-
Double post. :p
How I'll never forget to spell Rhamphorhynchus ever again.
-
^ Well, congratulations on that, LBTDiclonius! :D And you remembered to italicize it, too! :smile
I’m thinking…
Have I really been off the GOF for five whole days? :blink:
…Well, technically it was more like four-and-a-half days, but still…
-
What I'm thinking is how great it is to join this site.
-
^And we're always glad to have new members aboard :wave.
As for me, I'm thinking about...too much. So many decisions to make and things to do, it's overwhelming. I may need to sleep on it first :p.
-
Why is it that certain people put such an emphasis on another relationship status? Why would it matter if I'm single or not? And why feel the need to make a poll of it to ask others?
For one thing if people only define others on their relationship status to equate to sucessful in the way that they do have a relationship than that is just shallow and sad. Sure it may be a good thing to some but to define it as a whole, yeah I know I'm utterly pathetic I don't need that to be pointed out.
And really, I may not want a relationship but I also don't appreciate someone asking people their opinions if I have one or not, after all what has it got to do with them and would it really destroy their miserable lives if I do or do not have one?
I do not understand people at all...
-
I'm trying to decided whether or not to take a brief break from writing my fanfic. :unsure: Should I post the next chapter this week (even though I haven't even started it yet) or wait until next week? :unsure: Where I'm currently at is the first time in a month for what I consider a potential good point at which to stop for a short break. Well, there are a lot of other things I'd like to do with my free time other than write my fanfic. I guess I'll let it depend on how much progress I'll make on the next chapter this week. :unsure:
-
I'm thinking about how I should work out my real life issue's than use the computer as a escape to not deal with them. I should tackle than head on but I choose to do things the immature way witch is to play games and use the computer.
-
^ I think it's good to talk about your troubles sometimes. Belonging to a community like this can sometimes lessen your pain, though it is good to confront your problems eventually. I've been through a lot myself, but if you want to send me a PM anytime to vent, feel free to do so.
As for me, I'm mostly thinking about how hard it's been to actually start a career in this economy. I'm really hoping I get some favorable news from the exam I took two weeks ago. It should be another week and a half minimum before I hear from them. I'm also thinking about my upcoming trip to Disney for my Birthday in less than two weeks now. :DD Really looking forward to just getting away and taking some time off.
-
That I have to get ready for my work day to began. Than I don't know what after that.
-
I'm thinking about how cool it is that today, 217 years ago, the 50 gun British warship HMS Romney captured the 44 gun French frigate Sibylle at Mykonos in a battle that lasted an hour and ten minutes, BUT, that's not what's cool about it. What's cool is that I was there, in Mykonos harbor last year as part of my Eurotrip, and I'm just thinking about those times now, and about my stay on the island. Out of all the places to have a ship to ship duel, this one took place in a neutral port, and at Mykonos no less! So that's me being totally random. :p
-
I'm hoping that the colour dye that I have put on will have worked....

ï Why is it so flippin' difficult for me to write reviews these days?! :huh: :bang :wacko
ï Who to nominate for the GOF Awards?…Who to nominate for the GOF Awards?… :unsure:
ï My brother was right…this cake is awesome. :p
-
- How excited I am for the fanfiction awards!
- How hard it'll be to pick members for the member awards
- what flavor of cake Pangaea is chowing down on :b
-
Who shall I pick for the awards...hm...
-
How to not push people that do care about me away.
-
Gahhhh I'm soooooo flipping tired.
-
The member awards, mostly trying to think of who to vote for.
-
Finally I managed to finish that review for The Chronicler's fanfiction! :wow Now, to work on catching up with vonboy's…

Duncan Hines Moist Deluxe dark chocolate fudge with Betty Crocker Rich & Creamy triple chocolate fudge chip frosting. :smile
…I needed something chocolatey today. :P:

^Give.me.the.cake.NOW.
Seriously, that cake sounds AMAZING.
-
About how I would REALLY like to work in the Foreign Service now after talking to a guy who works with FS officers on a daily basis. It apparently isn't like the Peace Corps at all, and is rather comfy living, even in places considered hardship posts. I think more than ever now this is something I'd like to make a career out of, so I'm really hoping I get some good news about my exam results in a few more weeks.
-
Trying to get active more outside and so on. And try to find more of a social life.
-
Duncan Hines Moist Deluxe dark chocolate fudge with Betty Crocker Rich & Creamy triple chocolate fudge chip frosting.
How much I really don't want that cake. And how much I dislike chocolate. :p

Blaarrrggh…Too many things in my head right now… :wacko …Can't think…can't remember…can't focus…GLAH! :bang

E_e my joints hurt and the people outside are stinking loud. Dumb butts.

I'm thinking about life a lot. What to do with it.
-
Finally I managed to finish that review for The Chronicler's fanfiction! :wow Now, to work on catching up with vonboy's…
I don't mind that you're late this time. In fact, I'm actually glad you were late with that review, because now I have another week to work on the next chapter. With the way things are these days, and now with the GoF awards to think about, I really needed some extra time to work on this chapter.
Right now, I'm thinking about what a pain it is having to decide which PMs in my inbox to delete. :bang I hate having to do this, but my inbox is getting really full (at least 96% full). Hey, Pangaea, you call yourself a pack-rat of sorts, right? How do you deal with this kind of problem?
-
I've been having that problem lately too. I've PM'd a LOT in the 3 months or so I've been here, and I feel a little sentimental about some of them in a way, like I'd want to go back and read them sometime. I"m getting "MESENGER FULL!!!!" every few days, and I have to trudge through my PM's and look for ones I don't really need. I guess my only advice would be to devote some time and thought to it. That's something I need to do.

That's something I need to do.
I've been dealing with that problem for well over a year or two, so I might be able to offer some advice to help you, though you don't have to do so. If you have to delete a few PMs, the first ones to go should be ones that were fully quoted in later messages that you have. That way, you can still keep the content of that message and, as far as I can tell, the only thing you're losing is the exact time and day the original message was sent.
The problem for me is that I've already gotten rid of all of those types of messages long ago, so now I need a new target. I've decided to get rid of some one-liner messages about RPs that I no longer participate in. (That's what I've been doing all afternoon today.)

Really?! :! Well, that makes me feel a lot better about it. Thanks for telling me. :smile Still, write the chapters at your own pace; don't feel like you have to get a new one in within a week of my posting a review. ;)
Right now, I'm thinking about what a pain it is having to decide which PMs in my inbox to delete. :bang I hate having to do this, but my inbox is getting really full (at least 96% full). Hey, Pangaea, you call yourself a pack-rat of sorts, right? How do you deal with this kind of problem?
My method is to copy my PMsóeverything in them, including the date and name of senderóto a word document. (Actually, I have several documents; separate ones for each of the members who frequently PM me.) If the message contains links, I click "Quote" so that I can copy the URL; if it contains images, I do the same thing so I can get the URL in the IMG tags, as well as saving the images themselves in the same folder as the word document(s). This way, I can delete my messages without losing their contents; if I need to reference an older message, I just find it in the document.
Hope that helps. :)
EDIT: Oh, I also save my own sent messages, so that I don't forget my own responses, and can more easily follow archived PM conversations when I read them as documents.
-
So...many memories....and
"Fievel's dad sounds familiar...like I heard of him before."

How I can pick up a second job and attend grad school at the same time :confused.
-
Something's not right...
I just edited my last post in the topic of my current fanfic to show the improvements I've made on the most recent chapter, but when I clicked "submit modified post", my post had absolutely nothing! I quickly went back and copied and saved the entire content of that post on a document (thanks for the strategy, Pangaea). That way, if this really is just a glitch or something else minor like that, I can just try again later to edit that post.
For now, I'm still a little panicked by this, and I really hope this problem gets resolved soon. :unsure:
-
I'm sort of thinking about how it's already been a whole year since I first joined GOF, when I first became a part of it last year on the 12th of this exact month in particular.
Wow. :D
-
Right now, I'm thinking...
WAITING SUCKS!!!!
-
:bang :bang :bang :bang :bang :bang :bang
Okay, I don't know what the heck is going on, but I'm glad I finally managed to find a way to post the revised version of the previous chapter of fanfic. Somehow, when I tried to edit the original post, it completely erased the entire post! :bang I literally had to go through many trial-and-error efforts (I've lost count how many times I ended up editing that post) before I found out that something in the first third of the revised chapter was the source of the problem. I went through many more countless edits and failed to find a specific part of that section that might be causing the problems. :bang I eventually gave up on the original post and just tried to put it all in a new post. It didn't work. :bang Finally, I decided to put everything but the affected chunk back in the original post, then put just the affected chunk in the new post. Finally, FINALLY!!!, I have every part of the revised chapter on the topic of my fanfic. The only problem is that it's now out of chronological order, but I'm sure anyone who reads it will be able to figure out how it should go.
Now if you'll excuse me, I gonna go burn off the stress I accumulated in trying to finally solve this problem.
:bang :bang :bang :bang :bang :bang
-
Wow, that's really strange Chronicler. Something like that has never happened to me before. I notice when I read some post of here, that I see random diamonds with question marks in them. No idea if that would have anything to do with it. Probably just some exotic symbol or character my computer doesn't have or something.
I'm thinking about my Fanfiction right now actually. I might have it on hold (Not posting new episodes) but I'm still writing it! One big problem is I have major writers block on the very next episode that's supposed to be put up. I'm skipping it for now, and I'm writing the next one up. I won't start posting them again for at least a month, so I have time to think of something for that one episode. I think it'll be a good thing if I have several episode already finished when I start posting them again, that way I'm not pressured to finish an episode the day I'm supposed to post it.
Besides, Actual TV show scripts are written, checked over, scrutinized, re-written, burned, reviewed, and finally finished months before the episode airs anyway, so this will just be more realistic. :yes
-
I'm thinking about who I'm going to nominate for the three categories I have yet to vote in for the 2011 GOF Member Awards. :unsure
Also wondering why, with the award voting almost over, there are still so many members who have not yet voted, despite saying they would in the recent Rock Circle poll. :confused Are they just indecisive (like me)? Are they not aware of the voting? Are they busy? Is two weeks too short a voting period? Will there still be a vote next year if not enough of them vote? Should I bring any of this up in a voting-related thread? :unsure:
Yeah…I'm kind of panicky today…
-
About how I haven't written any fanfiction reviews the last few days. Just haven't felt like reading any of them latey :/ I said I'd like to try to read/review every single fanfiction entered in the awards, but there's so many of them now, I don't know if that's a pipe dream or not.

fail double post

Then follow my strategy: read and review at least one fanfiction for each author. After all, no matter how many fanfics we nominate, we are only allowed one award banner each year.
For example when I eventually get around to voting for one of your fanfics (not sure when at this point), I'm going to focus on just the one that I think you are likely to choose for this year's award (past-o-rama) and simply ignore all the others that you have nominated. Perhaps if some people follow this strategy, maybe I can finally get at least one vote for my fanfic that I nominated.
-
I need to set aside some time, like a saterday or sunday or something, to get to yours, since it's kind of long.
At least we still have a whole month to review fictions :D (Mumbling told me it'll go till august 1st)
-
August 1st, I was wondering when the voting for fanfictions would end, especially since it seems the voting for the other awards will end on Saturday night. I'm glad we have more time than I had feared. And thanks to being willing to eventually get to my fanfic. :yes
Right now, I'm thinking about my other fanfic, the one I'm working on and thus chose not to nominate. After working on the next chapter for most of today, I can't help but think of the interesting trade-off that depends on Pangaea's punctuality (I mean no offense to you, I'm just stating what I've seen). If he reviews before Friday, I feel obligated to get the next chapter posted on that week which means I have to work fast and possibly result in a lower quality chapter. If he fails to post his review within a week, that gives me another week to spend writing the next chapter and maybe come up with better ideas. In short, it's either a win-lose or a lose-win choice. Even though the choice is Pangaea's, I put the blame of the existence of this trade-off on my weird habits. :wacko
-
I'm thinking about my life. About college and seeing if I will attend. I will attend college and seeing when the fall classes start.
-
I'm thinking you should never write anything scary at night...especially when you're home alone. :lol
-
I'm also thinking never play the Oujia Board Game or the Online Game late at night.
-
I'm thinking about how awesome its gunna be when I get to Tacoma... :lol
-
How college is going to be a great thing when I start. And I will be busy again. Witch means no more free time to waste here.
-
I'm thinking about why I can't think of anything beneficial for my thread posts these days :p I see threads I'd like to get involved in, but just freeze up and can't think of anything better to post aside from agreeing or disagreeing with the previous poster and adding nothing of my own. :p
I just haven't been up to snuff lately, and I know it must not make me a terribly useful person at the moment. :confused

I'm thinking everyone left me in the chatroom. :(

I'm currently thinking about my fanfic (the one in progress). I've just finished writing the next chapter (chapter 18), though I'm still awaiting a review so that I can revise the most recent chapter (chapter 17). Personally, I'm excited about the next chapter that I'll be writing (chapter 19), because it'll give me the chance to introduce to the readers one of my favorite Bionicle characters. I honestly can't wait until I get that chapter posted. :D
-
I'm still thinking about chapter 19 of my fanfic. :smile Now that I've finally been able to vote on another story for the fanfiction award, I think I'll get back to writing that chapter.
-
I am thinking now I am tired of the internet and it's problems and how addicted I am to it. A sign of addiction is, even though it feels bad and you don't want to go on it, you still do it anyway due to compulsion.
-
I'm thinking about my life right now. Like getting ready for college classes and so fourth. And how I also need to cut down on the internet also. During the fall I will probably not be on here much at all. Due to my busy college life.
-
Here are my thoughts. Here I am up at 4 am. Only got three hours of sleep. I let a friend of mine sleep on my bed, so now I can't. Stupidest thing I had to do. But hey, my friend tends to roll alot, so if he slept on the top bunk, he probably would have fell and broke his neck. So I only did this to keep him safe! Sometimes I wonder...why can't I do the wrong thing for once?
-
I'm thinking about life still. So much to do in life so little time. I still have the college class in my head. I wanna take it. It would be good for me.
-
*An overseas trip for next year, and how I could incorporate a location that has been on my bucket list for years.
*What to do about grad school, and in general where my life is headed.
*I wish I had more income :rolleyes.
-
Getting ready for college. And wondering what the students there gonna be like.
-
I'm thinking that somehow, no matter WHAT I do, I'm somehow always the unimportant outcast of the group that no one pays attention to. :rolleyes
-
^ I always feel like that. <_<
I'm just thinking about how my new school year is going to go. I'm taking an online public school and there are only 7 people in my senior class :( Makes me nervous because I don't really enjoy meeting new people. I always tend to get really awkward. :boohoo
-
LBT I feel your pain.I really do. I've always been the outcast my whole life. I'm still the outcast in my family. And at work. My family ignores me and treats me poorly and they treat me differently. So I feel your pain. I know your gonna ignore this but I just wanna let you know you I can relate to what you're saying.
I'm thinking about how college is gonna be. I'm kinda nervous about meeting the classmates there. I hope they will treat me with respect and not an outcast.
-
I'm thinking that somehow, no matter WHAT I do, I'm somehow always the unimportant outcast of the group that no one pays attention to.
Based off of what I’ve seen on the forum, that is a problem caused by the members of your group, not you. If more people would really give you a chance, they would be delighted. I know this from the GoF. You joined us and we eagerly watched and joined in on what you said and offered, and now person after person speaks highly of you, appreciates you, and with hundreds of members, and your stay here being currently only a few months long, you got an award this year.
You have so much to offer people and places that it’s truly irritating how often others don’t pay you enough heed. It would be like a young boy fishing for crawfish at a river, suddenly finding some gold nuggets, running back to the cottage, trying to share the wealth he had found with his parents, but they don’t take him seriously enough to listen, so they missed out. All those people at your school or anywhere that won’t take the time to appreciate you are truly the ones who are unfortunate, because their lives would be more fulfilled if they’d let you inside.
You are one of my best friends, and you’ve made quite an impact on my life. I looked at you, gave you my attention, and in the end, I couldn’t be happier for having done so. You have such sophistication, kindness, understanding, perception, compassion, friendliness, and so much more, that when people view you like an outcast, they don’t open themselves up for the joy you can bring to them, they may as well have just tossed a winning lottery ticket in the trash without scratching off the number. You are by far not unimportant, miss. It may seem that way to you only because people aren’t letting you shine. Lying on one’s back in a meadow right after it rained while refusing to look up into the sky with result in missing out on that beautiful rainbow that lights up the sky in all its glory and splendor. Woe to that person, not the aspect of nature.
You’re just full of life and passion when you go somewhere, and it’s some people that won’t step back and look. If you can join a forum and win the hearts of the community in just a short time, know that you are not the one lacking. You can bring smiles to a person’s face with such ease, but that face has to be willing to listen, and so many silly people just won’t even try. It’s terrible, and I’ll pray with all my might that more people will give you the chance you deserve, but in the meantime, every instance you feel unappreciated, look to the people here, and your worries will melt away.

I'm thinking about how lousy my internet connection has been in the past week. It turns out Wednesday was an exception. Five out of the last six days, the internet connection at my house has gone out at around 9 p.m. <_< I don't know what the heck is going on here, but I guess I'd better get used to it. That's why I've been coming here to GoF at an earlier time than I used to.
Besides, having no internet in the evening leaves me with no excuses to not work on my fanfic. Heck, it's thanks to this problem that I've finally been able to finish the next chapter. :D
-
Well, I'm glad you could come up with a brightside to your internet problem, Chronicler. :D But netflix keeps being a pain in the (censored) and keeps reloading like every two minutes!! <_<
Update: Okay worse...every single minute... <_<
-
It hasn't happened in the past few days, but my internet usually craps out between 4 and 7 in the afternoon. don't know why.
-
Now I'm thinking about just how similar my LBT fan fiction and Nickelodean's Avatar the Last Airbender are. :blink: :lol :lol :lol :lol
-
Fourth day...the fourth day in which I had to watch my shows with being interrupted every minute. <_< And...
Is it just me or does Aang sound like Chomper? :blink:
-
No, they DO NOT. Being and ATLA fanatic, (Seriously! I watched rerun after rerun after rerun of each episode and loved EVERY minute of it!) Chomper sounds NOTHING like Aang.
What I'm thinking about, how is your story simaliar to ATLA, tfm? I really see no simalarites. :huh: Also...it's a brand new daaaayyyy! Don't you see mee...changing on my waaaaayyyyy! So completely! GAH!!!!!!! :bang
-
Well, its just that three of the ATLA characters remind me of Sierra, Devon and Pterano, that's all. Come to the chatroom and I'll explain more and how. And...
What the heck do you mean by it's a brand new day and I don't see you changing? :blink:
-
Ohz, okayz. Just checking. I also know who those three characters represent in ATLA. Nice choices. *CoughZukoIrohandOzaicoughcough*
Three words...
CAMP ROCK 2
It festers in your brain...and lingers there until the end of eternity...but I love it. 83
(Those are lyrics from a song in the movie. Catchy little bugger.)
-
Oh no...not Camp Rock! IT BUUUUUUUUURRRRRNNNS!!!!!!! XDDDDDD :lol :lol :lol :lol :lol :lol :lol
-
Lol, yes, yes it does... :lol :lol
Now, I'm just thinking about random stuffz...=3
-
Thinking about when Freddy Krueger is to be released onto Mortal Kombat and why it's taking so darn long too! :p
-
Just thinking about how busy my life is gonna be coming up soon. And how I'll need to try and balance my life out.
-
A job application that takes SIX to NINE straight hours?! :! Well... at least they give you three days to complete this... plus it'll be rather worth it if I do get in. Guess I'll have to try and stagger this.
-
Have fun with that, Pterano :p
Today, I'd like to fill out an application for the second Wal-Mart that I'm currently at. The Assistant Manager and several of the actual store associates there like me (Well, they think I'm a good hard worker), and I've told them that I'd be interested in being a night stocker there.
-
I'm thinking about selling my iPad and then get a laptop, so I can continue working on some stuff (fanfic, projects, minecraft: the great valley project, music videos, etc.) anywhere! And I can even go to the GOF chatroom and talk to everyone :DD
-
I start my senior year Monday. I'm not nervous about it either. That's a first. Also, I'm thinking about what kind of navigation would be used to fly a spaceship. There is no sense of direction up there. No north, south, left, or right. It's just an empty vacuum. How would one navigate through such a vast void? Other than by sight.
-
Some really weird dreams I had recently :crazy.
-
What to write about.
-
I'M thinking about what the fall is gonna bring. Got my eyes set on A college class. So I can be more active outside.
-
I'm thinking about the unreliability of my internet connection at my house. Remember that internet connection problem I was having last week? It came back tonight, but at least it was fixed within two hours so that I could finish up on some things here today. One of the few things that I am looking forward to when I go back to college next week will be that I'll have a connection that's slower, but more reliable than this. <_<
-
I'm thinking about different kinds of life stuff. Not sure what to do yet.
-
I thinking about how the heck I'm going to be able to handle the workload that it seems I'll be getting for this semester of college. I've only done less than a week, but the schedules of assignments I've gotten show that there's just going to be no breaks from reading and solving math problems from three textbooks. I don't mind math, and actually do a good job at it, but what frustrates me is that fact that it just takes up so much time that I can barely find enough time to even be here on GoF. <_<
-
I'm thinking about getting out more during the fall and taking a few classes.
-
I'm thinking about POTENTIALLY going to grad school next year, and the benefits and downsides of the particular one I'm considering. It turns out the one I'm looking at I have a very good chance of going to for free if I get a certain fellowship they offer in French Revolution/Napoleonic studies. I absolutely love this era, and I would enjoy every moment of it, as well as get money to travel to Europe to do research on a topic of my choice, BUT... there are some potential drawbacks.
I didn't really want to go back to school so soon after obtaining my undergrad, as I really wanted to get a career going and just start working. However, the economy is making that difficult, and my dream career (the Foreign Service) could take several years to get into. :p If I DID do this program, I'd probably be limited to becoming a professor or teacher of some kind, and I'm not sure I really want to do that. I might enjoy it, but I'd be locked in.
So yeah... weighing the options I guess.
Of course... I could be looking into becoming a Foreign Service Specialist instead of an Officer, though I'd need to obtain a certain skill, or hope they're hiring in a field I'm strong in, which at the moment they are not. So yeah... it's tough :p
-
Getting a social Life
-
I'm thinking about how I need to do a better job of managing my time. When will I learn that classwork and homework are the only things I have to do that and can work on that can not be delayed for any reason? :bang
-
How I should have a more of a outside life than a internet life.
-
Thinking that as soon as Lee heads north, it's back to hot and humid <_<
-
I'm thinking about how I'll need to get used to the amount of homework that I seem to get every week. I just can't seem to catch much of a break. <_<
-
Thinking about what my life path is gonna be and look like.
-
^ Same here. I think a lot of people think that. I'm thinking about how to divide up my day, as I have to keep packing, help move things over to the new house, and pick my friend up from the airport, who will be visiting from Ireland today.
-
Yeah I'm sure they do. I also think I should learn to get out more and find time to take a few course and get out more. And might leave this place someday.
-
Translating the concept of the British drum horses into Darwin's Soldiers. They'll see it on TV during one of their stays in a hotel or something. Bear in mind that each solid silver drum weighs 90 pounds.
I have 3 ideas:
1.) Two anthro Clydesdales in military uniforms. One driving a decked out silver convertible and the other as the drummer.
2.) (Bearing in mind that anthro Clydesdales can be superhumanly strong) A single Clydesdale in a military uniform with both drums slung in front like an ordinary drum.
3.) An anthro Clydesdale in a suit of powered armor that is suitably decorated with both drums slung in front like an ordinary drum.
Personally, I like the first option.
-
Thinking about reviving the original Lion king rp, that was abandoned earlier this year. the reboot hasn't really had the same impact or turnout..
-
I'm thinking that maybe it was a good thing that I failed the Foreign Service exam this year. I signed up for the consular track, not because it was my first choice, but because it's a bit easier to get into because less people sign up for it. I talked to an actual Foreign Service Officer the other day, and she said just sign up for the track you're really interested in, as you don't want to be locked into something you won't fully enjoy doing. For me, that would be Political officer, and I think I'm going to sign up for that track next year. It'll be a longer waiting list, but if I teach myself a critical language, it'll put me higher up on the register, and hopefully cut down some of the wait time. So yeah, maybe it was a good thing I didn't pass this year. :p
I'm also thinking about the attack on the U.S. embassy in Kabul, and it serves as a reminder of the possible danger I'll be in in choosing this career, but at the same time, it's reassuring to know that no embassy personnel were hurt, and that the Foreign Service has an excellent record of keeping its employees safe and secure. :)
-
Thinking that I really should start looking at my computers' specs before I conclude the worst. After 3 years, I found out that the oldest computer I have (Compaq Presario sr5333wm) DOES in fact support PCI-Express graphics card. :slap
Time for an update.
-
Thinking about cleaning out my computer and life.
-
About how I might have a motor boat in my house.
*Checks*
No, wait, it's just my cat. :p
-
What is gonna happen down the road in my life.
-
I'm thinking about the (lack of) homework I had to work on today. I honestly haven't felt this much relief since the start of these classes. After having to deal with a back-breaking amount of homework and classwork over the past four weeks, it's going to feel rather strange that I'll be able to go to bed before midnight tonight.
-
And this is why I'm never going to college and nor do I want to go.
Thinking about going to bed now, Getting tried.,
-
I'm thinking about making regular trips into D.C. starting next week. I'd like to check out the Asian films they're gonna be showing at the Freer Gallery, and I'd like to make this a regular thing on my Fridays/Sundays now.
-
Getting back into the whole diet and exercising kick again. And getting my life back on track.
-
^ By doing what, specifically? You mentioned you didn't want to go to school (and can't say I blame you, I don't want to go to grad school anytime soon), so what other plans do you have?
-
Try and find some Social type places and meeting new people. And I wouldn't mind taking a class or so. But soon I will do that. That is the part of my life I'm gonna work on is trying to make new friends.
And I'm thinking about doing laundry right now.
-
I'm thinking of maybe doing even more of my homework soon. There's nothing on TV tonight, so I've got time to make some progress.
-
How to divide up my weekend. I definitely want to finish unpacking my room if I can, and I might go see "Drive" tonight, as it looks pretty good. Other than that... looking forward to the first break I'll be having since like two weeks.
-
Thinking about Getting ready and going for a walk.
-
Now that I finally have a free weekend, I'm not sure which of my free time activities I should do, especially since this weekend is all I'm going to get for the next two weeks.
-
I'm thinking about not isolating my self from the world. I want to try and get back and getting together with my old classmates.
-
I'm thinking about how I have absolutely no homework to do today! :D I can hardly believe it, myself! I've become so accepted to the idea that I'll never have much free time that I honestly don't know what to do today. Well, I'm sure I'll think of something.
-
Working on my diet that I'm starting today. Need to loose a few pounds by next summer.
-
I'm currently wondering on what to choose for my future career and what I'll have to sacrifice and what I will gain while doing so. And often ask myself... "Would I enjoy my job?", "Would I ever feel the sensation of regret, from choosing that particular job?", "Should I be an artist or an author?" etc. All these questions are running through my head as I continue to imagine the possibilities. And I know that I'm only thirteen, and I shouldn't be exerting myself by over-thinking this. But, I can't help but wonder what's gonna happen later on in life...
Ugh, so many unanswered questions... >.<
-
Debating on something.
Also on my fanfiction ideas.
And.....that should probably turn off this phone right now. Lol
-
Where the hell my preorder is. Hoping that it will arrive tomorrow morning....
I want to play Shadow of the Colossus already! XD
-
Trying to get back into the swing of things./
-
Christmas! I like to plan months in advance for everything. This year, I have a big budget ($700). That seems like a lot, but I'm a very generous person. I'm planning on buying several people something for Christmas. So far, I've made a $194 dent in my budget for two people. Although 19.99 of that was a small gift I'm giving myself. Now I have about $500 to spend on 8 other people. What to buy, what to buy....
-
I love Christmas myself! :DD
Hmm, I'm thinking about my weekend and how to spend it. An overnight sailing excursion to St. Michael's, or a trip into D.C. tomorrow night for dinner at Old Ebbitt Grill and a free movie at the Freer Gallery, and then some more unpacking on Saturday, and finally another D.C. excursion on Sunday? Choices...
-
^ I do too! ^^
Thinking about how great I'm feeling that it's a long weekend and I don't have school tomorrow! Woot! :lol
Also, I'm thinking about PanickyPetrie, I wonder if the dude's okay. Hope he is. :unsure:
-
I have good news for everyone here ( well at least thse that weren't here during that time he was on... )! X3
...I just spotted PanickyPetrie yesterday! :smile
-
Eh I have a 25.00 budget on gifts. For myself there is no price tag. So I'm thinking about buying my self a Nintendo 3DS and a couple of games As a Christmas Gift to my self.
-
I'm thinking about the fact that I just finished writing the next chapter of my fanfic, but I won't be able to write another one until next vacation after five more weeks of college.
-
Thinking about my essay for class.
And about how funny my four living planes (Lt. Gen "Pomegranate" Martin, Major Martin "Biggie" Lockie, Captain Johnson "Avenger" Fairchild, Major Allison "Rainbow" Douglas) would look wearing clothing that Rarity would have designed for them. This may appear in a roleplay or story sometime.
-
thinking about thanksgiving.. going out to visit my sister in washington dc..
-
How my brain feels busted, and I have really bad writer's block that won't go away :bang :slap.
-
thinking about thanksgiving.. going out to visit my sister in washington dc..
Maybe we could meet up in D.C. for a bit, Nick. :) I don't live too far from there myself. :) That's of course if your schedule would permit it. :yes
-
I'm not sure if my schedule would permit it unfortunately. I'm not sure how long I'm going to be there..
-
I'm not sure if my schedule would permit it unfortunately. I'm not sure how long I'm going to be there..
That's no problem, as I may not be around myself. I might be visiting my dad in my hometown, but not 100% certain on that yet. If you do have time though, just drop me a line. :yes
-
will do, and thanks for the offer..
-
Why a guy in a panda costume just ran through the library with a bunch of people chasing him.
Granted I chased him too just for fun.
-
I'm thinking about why every spammer and/or psychopath comes back to my forum! Some people even made 3 or 4 accounts (and they exposed themselves, lol).
One person came back under a new username (and a new IP adress, of course!). He does not flame, he even writes decent posts, but I know that this person is going to flip out one day. It will end up the same way as with his former three accounts.
I just don't get why some people are so addicted to my forum that they ALWAYS return. -.- I'm kinda scared!
-
I'm thinking about what to eat fir dinner.
-
I'm thinking about an incident that happened at home while I was away at college last week. My dad had been helping my sister redo her room for a few months now. Of course, that meant moving her things out of there for a while, so my dad put most of her stuffed animals in a large trash bag and stored it in the basement. Later on, my dad took all scraps and the old carpet from my sister's room and put them in large trash bags in the basement. This would turn out to be a big mistake, as my dad didn't realize it until it was too late. Last week, as he tried to help my sister find those stuffed animals, my dad realized that he had accidentally thrown them away. (Not to sound cruel, but my initial reaction to this story was: ha-ha, whoops.) My dad offered to compensate for this loss, but all my sister wants at this time is a new camera (I don't know why, and I haven't bothered to ask). After talking with my sister to confirm this story, I'm honestly quite surprised by how well she's gotten over this so quickly, though I can't say the same for my mom (she seems to be the pack-rat of the family). Heck, according to my dad, my mom is insisting that from now on she look through every bag of trash before it goes out to make sure this doesn't happen again.
I'm extremely confident that such a thing will never happen to me, since I tend to be more careful with my things, and I guess you can say I have a high tendency to be paranoid about making sure I have everything. I'll always personally make sure nothing too serious happens to my belongings, especially after hearing about this incident that happened to my sister.
-
I'm thinking about how much I love the newer version of Strawberry Short Cake Berry Bitty Adventures. It's a awesome show that has great songs and good meanings behind each episode. It made me a hater of the old show a lover of the new one. Even the new theme song kicks ass. And I'm not afraid to admit this to everyone here on the forum.
-
Think I like this place :lol
-
I'm glad you do. And I hope you stay here KiwiZoom.
Is thinking about my trip that is coming up. And I need to get packed for it.
-
I'm busy worrying about my driving exam in a few days. I've got a £20 bet with a friend that I'll pass first time (of course, he's betting I'll fail :anger)
-
I hope you pass your test Bush.
-
Thanks Petrie. I do too - that money could come in very useful.
-
You're Welcome Bush. That that over 30.00 American money.
I'm thinking about my night shift at work today.
-
I'm thinking about using my credit union as my main bank instead of my regular bank. They seem to have a lot of advantages, so why not? Still looking into it, but the credit union just seems far better. They got a free checking service, and I can directly deposit my paychecks with them as well, despite them having no branches in my area. Plus, there are no surcharges overseas for ATM use, so if I'm going to be working in the Foreign Service someday... the credit union seems like the way to go. I guess I'm just not used to using my bank though so... that's the only thing holding me back. X_X
-
I'm thinking about how I really need to change my daily routine. I've been staying up really late far too many times. :bang I think I might have figured out how to stop this. Of all the causes, the one I'm most willing to cut back on is all of the news articles I've been reading online right after I check my email. It's just been taking up way too much of my time. I remember, back in my early days here on GoF, I always checked my email only once a week, and I was never tempted to read anything else on that website. This weekend, I woke up so late in the morning that I decided to not even bother checking my email, and thus avoid the temptation to waste hours reading news articles. It felt great. Although checking my email every day has become a must these days, I'm feeling a little nostalgic and have decided to, from now on, do my absolute best to stop reading so many news articles. It certainly will feel nice to have a lot more free time available. Not only will I be able to go to bed before midnight, but I think I might even find some time to work on my fanfic (and I thought I'd have to wait until the next week-long vacation until I could be able to do that).
-
How stressful my Programming Class is.
The projects are a huge pain and take a lot of time.
------------
And my MLP/Insane Cafe fan fic.
-
what do next inIsane Cafe 4 , but that largely rides on MRDrake and Aves posting , I think..
-
What happens next in Darwin's Soldiers because MrDrake controls Famine.
-
Trying to convince myself to continue writing the last chapter of Far Away Home. The whole story has been such a whirlwind of inspiration followed by burn out that I don't know if I can actually do it again for a sequel.
-
How Littlefoot and company apparantly smell like Scotch Brite cleaning detergeant. :lol
I was watching the live marathon and I was watching movie 5, and I was at the part where Chomper was about to tell them that they smelt "good" to his parents, but just before he could say that, an add about cleaning dtergeant popped up.
What are the chances, eh? :lol
-
Um…I'm panicking (mentally, anyways), partly from the news Caustizer has shared in this thread and the Appreciated Member Thread, though there are many other reasons. :o :blink: :unsure:
-
What to write for my MLP/Insane Cafe fic, Twilight Valley, beta reading a chapter for Cornova's latest PokË Wars story.
My bio test on Monday and my programming project.
F---, this is negatively affecting my writing and creativity.
-
How to actually end my crossover fic that I'm writting, even though that'll still be a few chapters away. And that even though I've only posted 2 chapters of it, a few people do like it so far, so that makes me happy XD
Freddy Krueger and Ponies. Awesome and deadly combo that is for my fic :D
-
My dreams I've had over the past week, and how much they seem to coincide with my horoscopes :blink:. Also, my non-human pals have been acting weird the last couple of days :crazy.
-
I'm thinking about that college assignment that I have to work on throughout this week, since I've pretty much failed to find time to get started on it earlier. :bang
-
Why my dreams have been so weird these past couple of nights :crazy.
-
Now that I have a few weeks off from college, I think it's time that I finally watch the last few LBT movies that I have still yet to see (9, 10, 12, and 13). My attempts to find them on YouTube yesterday completely failed, so I'll need to rent them at the local video store. The good news is that, after a test-run with one of my Bionicle movies, I am capable of watching DVDs on my desktop computer in the privacy of my room. All I need to worry about now is to convince my mom to take me to the video store tomorrow and preferably not tell anyone about this.
Why am I suddenly saying that I need to watch these last few LBT movies now? Well, I'm quickly reaching a point in my fanfic where I fear I may be missing some key facts (in this case, namely LBT9). By watching these last few LBT movies, I'll finally have a complete picture, so to speak, which will make writing any LBT fanfic much easier.
-
How many more days of freedom I have until school starts...and how my friends are doing this Christmas...
-
I'm thinking about gathering my thoughts for a review that I haven't written in a while. I'm also thinking I need to start studying again for the Foreign Service Exam, as I plan to dominate it this time around!
-
Twilight Valley, MLP/Insane Cafe Crossover, PokÈ Wars.
Too much s--- to write!
And how it looks like I have no choice but to let my EMT-B license as getting the required credits before the end of the month is nearly impossible.
-
I'm thinking:
I know I wanted to comment on a few topics here on GoF, but I can't seem to remember which topics specifically that I wanted to comment on. :confused :unsure: :confused
-
I've recently been thinking of possibly reviving a hobby of mine from when I was a kid: making a puzzle map. I remember once quickly making one of Vermont, where each piece was one of the counties, a total of 14 pieces. (What I did was trace the borders of those counties on a piece of paper, then cut along those lines I drew to create each piece.) That was when I was maybe around 10. I'm now 21, so it shouldn't be surprising that I'm thinking about doing something more ambitious. Of course, I'll likely have no time to even get started on it until after I graduate from college in a few months.
-
How and where I can get restricted items from Blackhawk! (a military and law enforcement supply house that also sells to civilians). I have had my eye on their I have had my eye on Blackhawk!'s Ballistic MICH Helmet. But Blackhawk! has this stipulation: "SPECIAL NOTE: This BLACKHAWK! product is restricted to Military, Law Enforcement and Security Personnel ONLY."
I have found some venders who seemingly don't require ID. And no, armor is not illegal for civilians to buy. If it were, I don't think I'd see people wearing it at a NERF gun shoot.

How messy my room is and wondering where Pangaea went off to.
-
^ As it happens, I'm right here.
I'm wondering whether I'll ever be accepted on the GOF again. :unsure:
-
^ You're accepted from me at least. :yes But I think others definitely accept you here as well. :yes
I'm thinking about getting tested for Li Fraumeni before my health insurance expires. I... kind of don't want to know if I have this disease but... it is very prevalent on my mom's side... and I guess it's better to know than to not know. I really hope it chose to skip a generation, and that I didn't inherit it. :neutral
-
Pangaea, I doubt anyone but yourself even sees why you would not be accepted. The question what would cause for you not be accepted by someone really beats me. I don't often talk about people without them present, but frankly I am not lying when saying that I never ever heard anything but very positive sentiments expressed about you; sentiments which I share :exactly
The most "critical" thing I ever read / wrote about you was concern about you wearing yourself out too much while trying to please everyone and seeing like obligations what should only be voluntary fun. Please relax Pangaea, we love you :yes
Also never feel obligued for a chat (in case this may be what you are worrying about). It is only an invitation, not a challenge :)
-
Causality loops :wacko
More importantly, thinking about getting a bike. As much as I like walking, it's wearing me down to get up at 3 a.m. just to walk to work. :confused
-
Yeah, Pangaea. I don't know how you can think your not accepted on here. You keep thinking so low of yourself, though no one on here seems to share your pessimism in yourself. It's really quite baffleing to me.
Hey, do you have MSN or Skype? Idk, maybe you'd like just a friendly little chat sometime. I'm not pushing you or anything of course. Only if you want to. :yes
-
^That's brutal, Justin. When does your shift start? I think you'll love your bicycle. I almost never walk in my hometown. I can get anywhere with my bicycle, in a mere 15 minutes at most.
Thinking about the it-can-not-be-done mentality that is spreading in the Western world (and wider). What inspired me was an article about how building a permanent Moon base would cost 1 trillion USD. Sure, if the base were to be built by NASA using non-reusable rockets, like the old Saturn V, it would cost that much. Perhaps even more. But, if the base were to be built by private companies competing for awards, like the Google Lunar X-Prize, using fully reusable rockets (SpaceX appears to be close to buiding such a rocket), 10 billion USD would be a better estimate.

How I once retaliated against someone playing gangsta rap in my dorm last year at extreme volumes.
What I did was play a mix of industrial rock, power metal, goa trance and intense orchestral/choral as loud as I could. I used a set of Sennheiser headphones to play similar music at lower volumes to protect my hearing.
In a few minutes, I got the annoying rapper to shut up.
Bonus, I had a lot of people surprised that I listened to that type of music. And I had some people asking what music it was.
-
I don't recall anyone saying you're not accepted on the GOF, Pangaea :unsure:. I think that, coming from a fellow Aspie, it's in our nature to question whether or not we are accepted into social circles. I find myself doing this often, including on the GOF, but having the confidence and self-esteem to tell yourself you're a good person who deserves friendship and acceptance goes a long way :yes. I hope you're not discouraged by anyone, as I have never heard anything negative about you on here :).
-
Oh, shoot, I posted before my post was complete. Give me a few minutes…
Oh, drat. I accidentally made a new post instead of editing this one. :slap
Just ignore this post.
-
Pterano, Malte, vonboy, Cancerian Tiger: Thank you. It is warming to hear that you think so highly of me (far better than I've been deserving of these past several months). Honestly, it comes as a real surprise to me that anyone would speak fondly of me anymore, what with me being so negligent of my friends on the GOF.
Pangaea, I doubt anyone but yourself even sees why you would not be accepted. The question what would cause for you not be accepted by someone really beats me.

I'm hardly wearing myself out on the GOF; it's the fact that I've hardly done anything at all on the forum since June that bothers me. Also, did you receive the e-mail I sent you on January 15th? I explained in that message the reason for my chickening out on a Skype conversation, but since you didn't respond I wasn't sure you got it. (Not that I'd blame you for not responding; it took me a month to get around to sending that message; I'm surprised anyone can stand to talk to me at all. :unsure:)
Yeah, Pangaea. I don't know how you can think your not accepted on here. You keep thinking so low of yourself, though no one on here seems to share your pessimism in yourself. It's really quite baffleing to me.
Hey, do you have MSN or Skype? Idk, maybe you'd like just a friendly little chat sometime. I'm not pushing you or anything of course. Only if you want to. :yes
I do have Skype, but I'm so shy that I haven't used it to talk to anyone outside my family. A couple months ago I mustered up the courage to ask Malte for a Skype chat, but ultimately I wimped out, deciding that I wasn't ready after all. Someday I do want to try to talk to other members via Skype, but given my downright pathetic level of shyness, I don't know when that day will be.

No one has directly said anything that made me think I was unwanted or disliked (not yet, anyway), but I strongly suspect that many of them are disappointed in me for failing to fulfill promises I've made to them for so long. I've barely given any art or writing feedback in ages, take forever to respond to messages and PMs, there are at least three members I promised star day cards to long ago that I have still failed to deliver, the "In The Land Before Time" RP is at a standstill thanks to me being so indecisive and sporadic on what and when to post, and I haven't even responded to my own "Ask Me" thread since October. And I keep balking whenever I do make an attempt to work on these things. :bang Some days I'll think to myself "today I'm going to get this thing done!"; I start writing, and make a little progress, but then become unsure of how to continue, start getting nervous about how my post will be received, take a break with the intention of getting back to work once I've calmed down, get sidetracked, and before I know it the day is over and I'm too tired to continue. :bang
My self-esteem has gotten so bad that I'm afraid that even talking about myself on the forum, or even drawing attention to myself just by posting, makes me look like a selfish person who just wants attention. I mean, I do want attentionóit's horribly lonely and painful to not be noticedóbut I don't want to inconvenience people or make them waste their time (and perish the thought of getting them to talk to me out of sheer pity), or annoy them by sounding like a complainer, a braggart, a fussbudget, or a know-it-all. After all, I may have problems, but they're only because I'm a deficient weakling who can't handle or keep up with the real world; the other members here have much more serious and difficult problems than me (housing, money issues, finding and keeping jobs, family drama, etc.), and if I were in any of their places I would never survive.
I'm sorry, I don't mean to turn this thread into a topic about myself :unsure: (just PM me if you want me to remove this post). If any of you have anything else you want to say to me, why don't you post it in this thread (http://gangoffive.net/index.php?showtopic=10347&st=20&#last) I made a while back for the express purpose of explaining what's going on with me and apologizing for my innumerable faults and mistakes (so that I wouldn't have to clutter up the rest of the forum with my complaining)?

Sky went in for surgery today to remove some gall stones.
I'm hoping he made it out okay. :angel
-
Hey Pangaea, I actually have been feeling the exact same way. I was absent for a good chunk of time here, due to depression issues/lack of time type things, and now I feel like I've been letting my friends down on here because I'm not there for them, or I'm not fulfilling my commitments to them. I end up staying offline even more, because I think I'm some big disappointment, and probably end up just making things worse for myself. :p I dunno, I just go in circles when I start talking about this. I think the exact same thing you do. Maybe they don't say it but... they might be disappointed or discontent with me and my lack of activity. Once again, I don't really know. It's a self-perpetuating quandary. :confused
Either way, hope things go smoothly for you. I understand being shy as well. Well... here's to you at least! :yes Figured I'd end on a positive note at least. :p
-
How strong my bones must be. To my knowledge I've never had a fracture, though I suspect I may have had a mild stress fracture in my right hip a few years ago :crazy.
Just today, as I was helping someone move a three-hundred pound cast-iron woodstove, we ended up dropping it, and one of the feet landed on my right baby toe. Man it hurt, but surprisingly, the most damage I sustained was a minor bruise :huh: :crazy. I've even had a couple hundred pounds of frozen salmon fall on me in my workplace's freezer, and it knocked me on my tail, and yet I walked away unscathed :confused.
-
I'm thinking about how interesting today is in terms of history. Today is Charles Dickens' 200th birthday. Today is also the 200th anniversary of one of the strongest earthquakes to ever hit the United States, one of a series of massive earthquakes in the New Madrid Fault Zone in southeastern Missouri. (An interesting result of those earthquakes is that a lot of people didn't want to live there anymore, so a rich businessman (I forget his name) bought all of that abandoned land. He later influenced congress to make it all become a part of the new state of Missouri, due to the power it would have in being "the Gateway to the West". That's why Missouri, as seen on a map, has that weird notch on the southeastern corner.)

I'm thinking about my day today.

Extremely interesting to know! :DD I knew about Dickens's Birthday, but not about the rest of those facts! Dickens just happens to be my favorite author, so it's nice to see him getting some recognition here. :yes
I'm thinking about taking a leave of absence. It's something I've been considering over the past month, and I know I'm not around here much anyway. Still considering it.

Once again, I'm thinking about how I never seem to have enough time to get things done. I've got multiple assignments for some of my classes that I need to get done within a few days. Not to mention, I've made hardly any progress on my fanfic in weeks. The good news is that I'm starting to manage my time more efficiently by not wasting so much time reading news articles online.

What I'm gonna do when summer starts.

How DarkHououmon's FF.net profile had a teaser for what seemed like an epic, high octane thriller/war story.
Decade
Rating: PG-13
Description: When Pterano discovers the real Stone of Cold Fire, the entire planet is plunged into a terrible Flyer Reign. A resistance group is the Earth's only chance of salvation.
And how much it kinda depresses me that it will never be seen.
And how much I regret not copying and archiving Regina Demonica's Icthy-centric LBT war story Silver. It's actually really, really good.
-
About how bad the TV series sucked for LBT, espicially with stashing most of the good episodes in the first half of the one season, and putting a lot of the nastier ones at the back, as well as ending it with probably the worst episode they could have chosen to end it. <_<
And how awesome Madonna's new album is! :exactly
Oh...
And how much I regret not copying and archiving Regina Demonica's Icthy-centric LBT war story Silver. It's actually really, really good.
I remember seeing that one, and now it's gone. I never read it, so it doesn't upset me.
What does is a similar fate happened to Hunter and co.'s "Two from the past". It was the best LBT fanfic I've ever read.
And now it's gone. :cry
Help finding it is much appreciated.

The idea that medical science could significantly improve and people may end up living longer then 100+ years of age. Also hearing that there could be a way to cure aging too. Some say we may even see 1000 year olds too in the near future. If that happens can you imagine how strange that would be? :o
-
What is it about The Conversion Bureau (MLP:FiM fic) universe attracts so many f---ed up people. A good portion of TCB authors are misanthropes and some, most infamously Chatoyance, have more loose screws than the bulk fastener aisle in Home Depot (Chatoyance has actually expressed a desire for the events ofvConversion Bureau to actually happen!)

If I am able to exchange my Die Hard 4.0 DVD for the other version of it, since the retailer gave me wrong information in regards to it. All I was after was the original version of it, and they told me that the single-disk version was that....but when I got it....it wasn't, it was the uncut version, and that wasn't the version I was after.
-
When some of my favorite fanfics are going to be updated. I understand how difficult it is to keep a story going when you're busy or have writer's block or both, but when a story is so well-written and intensity is building up, it gets hard to be patient sometimes ;).

Writing a letter to my representative in NJ about some pro-gun laws.
-
^A couple of fanfics by The Oracle ("The Chronicles of the Balaur" and "Ultrasaur Helios"), "Renege III", and yours of course. I understand your reasoning and I can continue to be patient ;). It's just been really quiet on FF.net lately, that's all :unsure:.
And I've given up on Dark Side of the World's "Warriors of the Solar System" series. He/they put the second season on hiatus, and then recently removed both fanfics from FF.net, despite these being his/their most popular stories on there :confused.
I haven't been writing much lately myself, but maybe I should start up again :p.
-
I'm working a bit on PokÈ Wars to get my writing going.
And I should really be studying for my Theater final which is on Tuesday.
Oh well, I can wait a bit.
-----------------------
On a side note, the well-known TCB author Chatoyance seriously creeps me out. I've seen less loose screws in the local hardware store!
-
^Then don't read the crap that these two, AnthroLover and thelightoftruth, have posted on FF.net. Nobody can write the s*** they write and not be seriously mentally ill :x. And, to thelightoftruth, using the real life Angel of Death in a hatefic is just not cool <_<.
For those who don't know, the real life Angel of Death was Dr. Josef Mengele, perhaps the most notorious Nazi doctor in the time of the Holocaust. He was responsible for the experimentation and murders of countless children, hence the reason he was dubbed the Angel of Death :neutral.

Anxious at the moment. Never voted in an actual ballot before which I need to do today. ^^;

My brother is going to Bermuda for a week, starting tomorrow. He is going with his girlfriend and her family. Apparently, they can actually afford a vacation like this.
Not that I'm complaining or anything like that. I'll actually appreciate the peace and quiet for a week. (I'll be needing it, since I'm getting my wisdom teeth removed tomorrow, and I heard that it takes a week or two to recover.)
-
Where to get the full version (pics and other good stuff) of a PDF of Fallout Equestria. I missed the deadline for the printing of it ($80+ for a 5 volume set!?).
I'm going to simply bolt the pages together and not bother with book binding.
-
I'm thinking about standardized testing and its origins in the US. As it turns out, its origins lie with Robert Yerkes, who was a known proponent of eugenics. Wait... eugenics? One and the same. All of a sudden, standardized testing is making a LOT more sense... in a very disappointing and surprising way.

I'm thinking how best to turn things around and get into a new track this year. I've been stuck working for my parents after graduation, and I want to change that. Several options are on the table now (especially with no Li Fraumeni Disease to worry about, as I feel I now have a new lease on life). My boss's son could get me into the Department of Defense, as he has a lot of contacts there, so I've set things in motion with him to see if anything will come of this, though I'm not fully holding my breath either, given how many other things haven't worked out last year. :p Edit: As an update to this, he's currently got someone at the Pentagon tracking down my previous resumes now, and also is working at seeing if he can get me some near-term work at the Smithsonian! Huzzah! Fingers crossed (or claws crossed :p)! :DD
Second, President Obama has put into initiative a hiring program for new grads that will go into effect during the summer, though there's a limit of having to be two years max out of school, and I'm already a year and a half, so hopefully bureaucracy won't muddle this and bog it down. :p It'll definitely be a good way into the Fed though, with a 2 year mentorship and transition into a more permanent position, so I'm REALLY hoping this helps me out.
Finally, although I'm not sure I'd be ready (or want) to go to grad school at this point, I'm thinking I'd enjoy it if I could get my Master's overseas. Just get away for two years and apply myself. One of the places I've been giving serious thought to is the University of Cape Town in South Africa. It's English speaking, and I've always wanted to visit the Cape. Prices are way cheaper than here too, though I'd still probably a need a bit of financial aid or a scholarship. I could major in International Relations, to further my career goals of entering the Foreign Service someday. It'll require some thought, as it's a big move and I might not be making any income during my time there, but I have until October 31st to apply for the fall semester (seasons are reversed down there).
Yeah... just some of my inner musings and thoughts that I figured I'd write down...

I just found out my exam results for my first year of university, and I feel pretty good. Got a First in Genetics which is my favourite topic, and an Upper Second in everything else, so I did fairly well.
But now I have a week to decide whether or not I want to transfer University, since I got the required grades.

About how much I hate my calculus class; it's killed the vast majority of my summer.

I'm thinking about how I can't help but notice that July 20th seems to be a rather significant day for a number of things. I'm not talking about just the first Moon landing in 1969. There was also that attempt by a group of Germans to assassinate Hitler in 1944. This year, that day is marked by the tragic shooting in a Colorado movie theater.
Closer to us, July 20th also happens to be the birthday of two notable GoF members (landbeforetimelover and action9000)
Also on July 20th, the Bionicle forum, Bzpower.com, first came online in 2001.
Interesting how so many anniversaries, both the historically notable and the personal, seem to take place on one particular day of the year. :blink:

When I looked at a list of baby names, I had this thought:
If my future wife insists on naming our daughter "Charity", "Chastity", "Prudence" or any other virtue name, I will name my daughter "Rarity" or "Celestia" just to spite her.

I'm thinking about next year, and what I can do to change things around. Despite my initial reservations about this, I'm feeling a bit more confident about grad school, and I think I'm going to take the GREs sometime in the earlier half of next year, and then apply to FSU for fall semester. If I can get a certain fellowship there, I can essentially get my Master's in Napoleonic history for free (and get a stipend to study abroad somewhere). This of course will probably mean I'll be limited to just becoming a professor, but at this rate, with the economy going as it is, I feel a change of SOME kind is necessary in my life, as I really feel like a change of scenery is in order. I've got relatives down in Tallahassee who could put me up so I wouldn't have to worry about housing.
Of course, I also intend to PASS the FSOT this time as well, and if I pass that, I have every intention of dominating the oral interview that follows. I went ahead and registered, and scheduling should be going out in May as always.
A distant third option (not as easily funded) would be to go to Johns Hopkins for International Relations or History, as I live pretty close by and they are 9th best in the country in terms of history programs. This one though I may not be able to fund as easily as the FSU choice.
Now grad school means my income will drop, but that's something I'll have to live with for the next year or two until I get my Master's. I've at least built up enough to survive for a few years, so it's just something I've been weighing out as well.
Yeah this next year could be bringing some changes, and they're all things I don't want to think about lightly at all. At least I get a much needed week off from work this coming week, and can use it to start making some more solid plans and getting things situated for 2013.

As I'm watching The King's Speech (awesoooooome movie), I'm wondering if George, Duke of Wales, had some form of Asperger's. Might want to look into that.
His behavior on top of his stammer seems very much like it

5 years ago, yesterday, was the day officially I joined GoF. These last five years have been great. This community has just been perfect for me; it's small enough that virtually everyone here could get to know me, but also big enough that I can always expect to see something new every day. I'm still making slow and steady progress on my second fanfic, but I still intend to finish it just as much as I did back when I first joined five years ago.

Just reading over my old LBT war story Twilight Valley and seeing how much I've improved. And I'm also kicking myself for not updating that story.

Giving the Catholic Church a second chance and see how they will treat me this time around.
What do you mean, Petrie?
As for thoughts... I am apparently going in to work today, so I guess I am thinking... darn, why did it have to stop blizzarding? XDD
And I can't use my drawing tablet because apparently the room it's stored in is off limits ever since we turned it into a guest room... so I'm debating the best means of actually using it before I'm overloaded with commisions :p
The church I went to long ago treated me very poorly and I stop believing. Now I'm going to my church down the street and I love it. I love the people and I love how people treat me with respect. And I love how everyone get's to talk here. No one is left out. In a Catholic church they don't let females talk at all witch I found rude and mean. So I stopped going to the Catholic Church thank god and now I'm at this church that everyone is welcoming and kind and friendly.

Wow, I'm sorry to hear that. Well, I'm glad you found a better place :)

Like Serris, I'm also thinking a lot about fanfiction possibilities. Particularly timings.
-
Life in general, I suppose. Last night, I had a band concert at my school. Many other performers were there. We had the following: our band, along with the middle school band, and the high school choir and select choir, plus a jazz band (who sounded great!) and a percussion ensemble (same!). Great night.
-
Moving out this year to lands as of yet uncertain. I've been turning possibilities over in my head, but due to everything being up in the air this year, I'll reserve further comments for a later time.
-
How much I hate gun control and the f---ing s---head NJ politicans who propose them. Fact, I've never been to a NJ city I didn't think deserved to get hit by a meteorite.
How much I hate Mayor Cory Booker. Fact, I think most big city mayors are somewhat corrupt and lazy.
At least in Williamsburg, the mayor actually teaches economics in W&M and my hometown mayor's an EMT who actually goes on calls.
--------------
I'm gonna go for a walk and then give my state representatives an email about our 2nd Amendment Rights when I've calmed down.

I'm thinking about how hippie-like my parenthood ambitions are :blink: . I mean, I want to do the attachment route (carrying 24/7, exclusively nursing), homeschool (I'm even pondering a curriculum), and "real" sugar-free feeding. I mean "having my own garden" sugar-free; hardly letting my kids candy and when I do it has to be the best of the best.
But that means I'd have to change my OWN diet.
Looks like I have to convince my mom that we have to go to the Farmer's Market a lot more...
I'd have to have a nice, long talk with my boyfriend about it, as he's quite a picky eater.
-
I'm going through a serious amount of inner turmoil that I'm starting to lose mind. I don't know right from wrong, and I'm hopelessly lost...

Ptyra that sounds awesome!!
My mom is thinking of starting up a garden again, a collective thing with two of my sisters who also want to garden - we may even get some chickens :)
Seriously, I wonder why American mothers don't do a lot of holding or being with baby - other cultures, baby is with mommy all the time. Over here, baby's in the play-pen, baby's in the Exer-saucer, baby's NOT WITH MOMMY :o it's kinda sad...
Ehh, I'm thinking about the ART history papers I have due so I should probably get off and do them :p
-
About how ironic it is that we've dodged every major snowstorm this year... except the one supposedly happening on Wednesday. Could be up to a foot of snow! Really? :blink:
-

In our area, I believe the storm is staying south of us, so we should be free from a snow day tomorrow.
-
we should be free from a snow day tomorrow.
Gaaah! Whut? No snow day?
Drat, I guess I will have to do my assignments, then :DD
-
Well, I hope my music assessment went okay. Why did we have to go last? We were seriously rushed since it was the end of the lesson, let alone the fact that there were younger year hooligans screaming outside. :anger
-
I hate it when that happens :p assessments shouldn't be rushed. Seriously, you are being ASSESSED, that takes time.
Thinking about how awesome it is that I am not expected in class tomorrow bc I finished the assignment due and I'm ahead, YESS!
-
My thoughts?
"Buetterfly....What happens if you do fight fire with fire..I guess it just makes a bigger fire....how come paper covers rock...I'm gonna throw a rock at someone and see if they can protect themselves with paper in the name of science! I'm hungry..should go make some pancakes...pancakes"
I have an odd mind ok
-
How coming this May, it will be my fifth anniversy here as a GOF member.
:wow Holy Cheese.
-
Congrats, Rat lady! I'm thinking about wether I'll get the lab position at my university. I should find out soon.
Update:
I got it!! :DD :lol :DD
I got the position! This calls for a victory song!
I can see for miles and miles and miles and miles and- CURSE YOU, PETE TOWNSHEND! Can't get it out of my head! :bang
So yeah, can't wait to meet with the professor at the lab and discuss the experiments I'll be able to be a part of.
-
^Congrats LCP! :)
I'm thinking about my past social experiences, recalling my social blunders and the people I have met.
-
Thinking about how ironic words are - we can say one thing, and yet be blasted or misjudged for a misunderstanding.
Take into account a teacher who read a book title Nappy Hair to her class; the parents were outraged, thinking it was a rcial slur aagainst blacks. The PTA had the teacher fired through no fault of her own. After all that, the directors finally read the book, and realized their mistake, but the teacher wisely refused to return to her position.
People rock, no? :p
-
I am thinking about eating some ice cream. Specifically, I'm thinking about eating Blue Bell Cookies n' Cream. :D

If I ever get cancer and have it treated, I want an immortal cell line to be named after me so I contribute to science even after death.
And of course, I want my relatives, descendents and myself to get royalties from said cell line.

At about 6:30 this evening, I was thinking this: HOLY CRAP! :wow
Here's what happened: I was the only one at the house at the time. I was watching something on TV and decided to grab a quick drink during a commercial break. On my way to the kitchen, I heard sirens, and they were really close by. I looked out the window towards the front of the house, thinking, None of those houses are on fire. This house certainly isn't on fire. I then notice the sirens are going further down the street, towards the other side of the house, so I walk to the other side of the house to look out the window towards the back of the house. Just as I entered the dinning room and glanced out the window, what I saw was enough to make me say aloud, "Holy crap!" at least three times.
I saw a huge column of thick black smoke from somewhere not too far away. (I couldn't see what exactly was on fire, some trees blocked my view. My best guess would be a barn, since it's a rural area in that direction from my house.) The column of smoke was almost as wide as my outstretched hand, and was so high that, even with my face against the window, I couldn't see the top of it. I counted at least four fire trucks pass by, and it was at least 20 minutes before the column of smoke started to clear, indicating that the fire was being put out.
Even more incredible, my brother was about 30 miles to the north and the rest of my family was the same distance to the south, and both of them could see the smoke as they were driving back home, so that was quite the fire that happened nearby.
I honest can't get that image of such a huge column of thick black spoke out of my mind. And when I picture it in my mind, I still can't help but think: Holy crap! :!
-
oh, that must have been kinda scary...
We once had a fire only 50m far from my school, we called the fire fighters and watched them the whole afternoon lesson (from 2PM to 3:30PM, politics). My teacher called it fire education then :nyah
However the reason for the fire was some hot ash. The wind blew it to the roof, which started to burn.
Some years ago my grandparents, who live one floor below had a fire in their kitchen. Nothing bad happened fortunatily since my grandpa put the fire out with some water. They just had to buy a new kitchen.
That would be my experiences with fires so far :)
-
This is the first time I've ever logged into the GOF from an airport. :P: I love my new laptop…
-
Someday either switching departments in my store or getting a new job all together. It's time for me to leave my current department that I'm working in right now.
-
I'm thinking about how I wish it was late October, and how ready I am for this class. I'm so ready to start the next step of my life, and waiting right now seems endless. Five more months... I just have to make it through five more months... then I'll get my cert, and hopefully be leading tours. :DD
Oh... and hah! Lookit that. Tomorrow's my FSOT date... wow. XD I'm rather surprised that I'm just not as worried this year about it as I was the previous years, namely because hiring is so abysmal right now in the State Department and I won't hold my breath, AND because I'm too busy lining up a career as a tour director to worry about something I only have a .2% chance of getting anyway. :lol
-
My horrible day of work tomorrow Hope it goes well but doubt it. Man my life Blanking sucks.
-
...Why in the world am I up now? o_0
-
Getting out more and getting my life back on track
-
Four years. I've really been posting on the GOF for four years (as of today). :blink:
-
I'm shocked I've been here for two years. And you guys manged to deal with me for that long. I'm very impressed.
-
The Chiricahua desert after a cloudburst smells like honey! :! Who knew? :lol
-
A nice relaxing day off tomorrow. I'm not gonna do a darn thing.
-
My RP responses and how to have them make sense and not look like I am just posting to make it in activity. :bang Also the meetings with the career counselor and what I need to do.
-
My life still and my weight loss goal.
-
Why I seem to sabotage my personal success. It's not too big on the grand scale of conflicts I don't think, but it's so easy for me to just fill my life with crap and use it as an excuse to not move forward and complain abou how I can't do something.
-
How much I really want to go jump in a lake.
-
How my life has gotten a bit better but not by much.

After watching a movie this afternoon, all I could think of for the rest of the day was this:
"BRRRRAH-DA-DA-DA-DA-DA-DA-DA-DA-DA-CIRCUS-DA-DA-DA-DA-DA-DA-DA-DA-DA-DA-AFRO-CIRCUS-AFRO-CIRCUS-AFRO-POLKA DOT-POLKA DOT-POLKA DOT-AFRO!"
(Guess which movie it is!)
-
I'm thinking that it's been a very long time since I've cleaned the dust off of my Bionicle collection. (The sets are in their containers to keep the dust off, but the containers themselves still get dusty.) I'll have to set aside a lot of time this week to wipe off all that dust. :neutral

Thking about... waitaminnit! It's afternoon and I haven't had lunch! Buhbye!! *zooms to the nearest kitchen*
-
I'm thinking about today, July 20th, which I find to be a rather notable day of the year. First thing that comes to mind is the Apollo 11 moon landing in 1969. Of personal significance to me, it is also the day the Bionicle forum, BZPower, was started back in 2001, which makes this year its 12th anniversary. There are other things this day is known for, both historical and personal, but those are the two big reasons why I find this particular day to be so significant.
-
Over here the 20th of July is a fixed term in historical perception. On July 20th 1944 there was the failed assassination attempt on Adolf Hitler by Claus Schenk Graf von Stauffenberg.
July 21st (today) I would think of the battle of Bull Run / Manassas in 1861, the first major battle of the US Civil War.
-
I'm wondering how my family is such a cat magnet...
-
Thinking about what a nice day it is and has been - went out to a restaurant, got to meet some pretty interesting people around my age, and I volunteered for a worthy cause. Feelin' pretty satisfied :3
-
I'm currently thinking about my father trying to clarify the risks of having a relationship with, well, younger people of the opposite gender...
I met a 12 year old girl today (he immadiately thought of the worst case.. hey! we're just friends, got it?) We talked a bit, got to know each other a bit and.. well you know, just acted like just-friends would.
My father told me I, technically, could end in the jail if there would go something wrong with having sex (I honestly would never even think about having sex with a 12yrs old girl :rolleyes) because she's underaged.
I don't have a crush on her, she was just nice and seemed like the right sort of person to befriend with.
If there are further 'admonitions' I might start a discussion thread about this topic or perhabs there's one existing???
PS: I'll see her tomorrow.. so there might be some more on this topic..
-
Well just be careful that you don't over step your boundaries. And do take that step that can get in in a lot of trouble. I'm thinking about tomorrow since I have work and the gym tomorrow. And trying to not be a mean jerk towards people.
-
About the show "Aaahh!!! Real Monsters" and how much I enjoyed it as a kid. :smile The entire series is coming out in October on DVD... I'd forgotten about this awesome show for awhile, but I think it may be time to revisit it in the fall. :smile
-
I'm thinking about what's been going on right next door to my house these last few days (Actually, that lot is diagonally next to the one for my house, but that's still close enough to see out my window).
It's not every day you get to see an old house get torn down, especially one right in your own neighborhood. First, they apparently used a backhoe as a sort-of wreaking ball. SMASH! CRASH! CRUSH! SMASH! The entire house was demolished in just over an hour, and I couldn't help but watch the whole thing. Everything was just trashed and dropped into some dumpsters. That was two days ago. The last two days, there was occasionally a loud BANG! BANG! BANG! (loud enough that I could actually feel the vibration), which I've recently determined was that same backhoe smashing the concrete foundation so it could be dug up and dropped into a dump truck.
I'm assuming what's going on over there is that someone recently bought the property and decided to get rid of the old house and build a new one. (Understandable, considering it was a rather old and small house compared to the rest of the neighborhood.)
-
Actually, I've been thinking about many things.
First and foremost is how weird it is that I started playing a game based solely on pornographic art of the game.
Second is how weird said art is.
And lastly is why is it that we as humans like said art.
-
How I should start on working on my social life more. And getting outside more instead of sitting here inside all day. And how I'm looking forward to the new game that is coming out.
-
How to turn the 1999 medieval fantasy RPG dungeon crawler into a furry, modern urban fantasy type dungeon crawler RP.
-
How I have a busy day today and how I should clean more tonight.
-
Thinking how my avatar's movements are surprisingly similar to how I act... that's how I dance half the time, too :o
Weird... but Awesome too!
-
That I have to go to the gym now. And I hate going.
-
I'm agonizing over to who vote for in the Appreciated Member Award thread this year. The vote is SO tough this year, as I have at least three that I can't narrow down now. This might take me a day or two more to decide. :oops This is gonna be a really close one, if I can even vote at all!
-
I'm in the very same situation, Pterano :bang
-
I'm thinking about how I really need to figure out how to adjust my sleeping schedule. The alarm on my clock just isn't waking me up. I have it set at 8 AM, and I typically just turn it off and fall back to sleep for another hour or two. True, I do go to bed rather late, but I fear that may not be the only factor. I'll need to try something different by the time I start my three-week temporary job next month.
-
I'm thinking about how active I used to be on here as well as a few other forums that I joined over a year ago. Just so much that happened over many years and stuff that I feel should not bother me within the grand scheme but do.
And about how minority groups are represented in the media.
-

My suggestion would be to put your alarm clock somewhere you can't reach it without getting out of bed (but still close enough that the alarm wakes you up, obviously). This is the technique my youngest brother uses to make sure he gets out of bed in the morning in time for his classes at college.
I'm marveling at how 2013 seems to be the year of momentous anniversaries for me. Five out of six members of my immediate family (including myself) have had birthdays that are significant in one way or another: my older younger brother's golden birthday, my sister's 18th birthday, my dad's 65th birthday, my 25th birthday, and my youngest brother's 21st birthday. And at least three of my favorite movies and TV shows are having numerically significant anniversaries this year: January was the 10th anniversary of MythBusters, today of course was the 25th anniversary of The Land Before Time, and Saturday of this same week will be the 50th anniversary of Doctor Who. (Seems quite serendipitous to me that a film that explicitly takes place before time should have its anniversary just five days before the anniversary of a series about time travel. :p)
And, for that matter, this year marked the 10th anniversary of the GOF itself. :smile
-
A funny but probably in very bad taste story that pokes fun at how many parents/administrators are buying bullet resistant school gear, how Londonian schoolchildren are wearing correctional officer style stabproof clothing to school and how gun owners can bicker over the most asinine things (.45 vs. 9 mm, synthetic or wood firearms furniture, etc.)
Basically, imagine a classic high school drama where firearms and tactical accessories are as common and talked about as books, backpacks and clothes. Where school supplies include a firearm, ballistic vest, ballistic eye protection, ammo, spare magazines and a holster and/or sling in addition to pencils, papers, binders and textbooks. And where cliques are based on what firearm you have in addition to your behavior and fashion.
And yet, I still intend to show safe and responsible firearms usage in this story.

On a side note, I barely pass the USAF fitness requirements for push-ups. I'm not going to enlist but I think I could be in better shape.

This is exactly what I used to do in college. These days, I'm not in any rush to go anywhere; I'd just like to be able to start doing things before noon. Of course, once I start my temporary job in less than two weeks, I will need to wake up at an even earlier time, so I'll definitely have to resume that strategy.
I'm thinking of a lot of various things right now, like what I'll be watching on TV this evening, what I'll be doing on the game Civilization V tomorrow afternoon, and ideas for an MLP:FiM fanfic I plan to start writing next week.
-
I'm thinking about quite a lot stuff :p
1. Why do I stay up that long even though I have to get up in 6 hrs already :bang
2. ...about contacting certain persons I have not had any contact with in a while...
3. ...about joining deviant art & ff.net to get more feedback and to read stories outside of the GoF
4. ...about posting fanfictions that I have written but never uploaded so far
5. ...about another project I started today (music related)
6. ...about the movie making project and how I can contribute best...
I guess that's it :blink:
-
You forgot to think about Ducky! Grrr :anger
*chases*
I'm thinking about that ha
-
I am presently thinking about how lame it is not having my right arm functioning, as well as how amazingly comfy blanket nests are. So lovely.
-
I'm thinking about how I have in the past year seemed to have settled for a certain lifestyle, thinking that this is as good as it is going to get and it will not have any better. I won't get any better.
-
I'm wondering how people from Nigeria got my mobile number... It's starting to bother me. Already had 3 of them contact me for lovey-dovey stuff the past week. Don't want to switch numbers just because of that though :/
-
As much as I love movies like PATF, I would love to see a kid's film (or any form of media in particular) that did not put so much emphasis on black/white and right/wrong. I wish there could be a film that said to embrace and master your dark side as well as your light, and even say that those concepts can be inverse of each other.
-
I am thinking about which book I should begin reading next. I received three books as a gift from a friend and I purchased two more books at Barnes and Noble. I believe that I will begin reading "Something from the Nightside" by Simon R. Green before moving onto to the first book of the Dresden Files. I will probably save the book "Europe: A History" for last as it will take me the longest to finish and will probably require the most time for reflection and study.
-
How tired and worn out I am with my mundane existence.
-
I'm thinking about my past relationships, my current ones, and why I've had so much trouble before. Funnily enough, watching the MLP movie made me realize why I seemed to have troubles before.
I focused too much on how different experiences I had to other people, really just how much I could not/would not relate to people, rather than focus on the experience with them, and how I can enjoy myself with those people.
And this truth really is giving me peace.
-
About the days when Caustizer and I worked on the amazing crossover between Twilight Valley and Command and Conquer.
Sadly, with Caustizer's departure from the forum, that work is likely to remain unfinished ó and the art SouthPawRacer made is forever gone.

Thinking about how every nice thing I try to do just turns around and makes me more enemies, thinking how miserably broken I am that I can't even feel happy surrounded by love...
My mind is a dark place.

How Into the Black is the possibly the darkest, most violent, raunchiest and grittiest RP I have ever played.

How Into the Black is the possibly the darkest, most violent, raunchiest and grittiest RP I have ever played.
How a lot of that is probably my fault :p

How Into the Black is the possibly the darkest, most violent, raunchiest and grittiest RP I have ever played.
And I'm definitely not helping things along either~ :p

About how empty and meaningless my life feels as of late.

I am thinking about how much I hate the fact that I'm so far ahead with my writing compared to my uploads... I'm so excited to upload certain chapters but I need to wait at least two months to get there :p
Another thing I'm thinking about is school because I'm not quite sure how well I'll get used to getting up early in the morning :p
-
I'm thinking about a donation I just made to a cancer fund, but they somehow didnt receive it... Hopefully it'll still go through. Makes me feel all icky and nervous. Also wondering how I'm going to able to study for all the tests coming up.. No nice thoughts here!

I'm now thinking about why the "Ask the Characters" thread, among many others 'Party Room' threads, hasn't received enough attention as of now. (hinthintnudgenudge)

I know it's a ways off from now, but I'm thinking about how nice it will be to take my mate out for a fun day at a Renaissance Festival~

Thinking about unrepayable debts, personal and public.
-
Reading some very old LBT fanfics (more than 10 years old), and thinking about how simple and short they are, and while most are bad, there are some that do show inspiration and have emotional appeal.
-
Thinking about finishing up the prologue of my story... and then rewriting everything I had written down in the way of chapters to suit such prologue *facepalm*
Also thinking about the tacos I will have for lunch... Soon they will be mine... precious...
-
I'm thinking about how GoF's total post count will soon reach another milestone: 400,000. I remember back when we celebrated 100,000 (I think that was back in 2008, not long after I had joined).
This also means my post count will soon reach 4,000, since I'm obsessed with maintaining my status of having 1.00% of the total forum posts.

Random thought,
Deadliest Warrior...with Twilight Valley dinosaurs...

How lazy I am lately...
-
I am thinking about how to resolve a minor plot point in my fanfiction. I can see two good options to take, and both of them lead to the same outcome in the chapter I am writing, but they are mutually exclusive. Sometimes I suppose having too many ideas can be just as frustrating as having too few :bang .
-
I'd ALWAYS prefer having too many... writer's block is demotivating...
-
I am thinking about what the dividing line is between a T rating and a M rating on fanfiction.net. Some of the future scenes in my fanfiction are going to get a bit... graphic... as the main characters are now sharpteeth and although the guidelines are rather clear on where the dividing line is for sexual material (which won't be in my fanfic) it is not so clear on gore. I don't want to lose potential readers by changing the rating to M (and thus be omitted by default by the filer presets on the website) but at the same time I don't want my fanfic to be flagged for a terms of use violation. It is an interesting conundrum.

Here's my advice on that issue of yours, based on some of the oldest LBT fanfics I remember reading back in 2007. Stuff that would be safe for a T rating would be scrapes and cuts that draw only a little blood. For an M rating, it would be vivid descriptions on things like entrails and dismemberment. If that's what's going to appear in your story, I would suggest raising the rating no later than right before you upload the first chapter that would have such vivid descriptions.
What I'm thinking right now: I really need to get around to cleaning off all the dust in my room. I've been putting it off for months now. <_<
-
^ Thanks for the response. I have pretty much decided to raise the rating when I get to the chapter in question. Since this is a story about the gang turning into sharpteeth and I have a descriptive writing style, it is probably good for me to raise the rating out of an excess of caution. :yes
-
My story has one chapter that might be M but all the rest is rather T or even lower (not very familiar with the UK/US ratings though)
I'm thinking about whether or not to get myself a proper piano instead of the keyboard I currently have... I have got fairly good but I feel like the way the keys react to my playing is slowly decreasing my chance of getting better... it's hard to describe.
-
What keyboard do you happen to have?

This one! Sorry for the bad quality. It's from Yamaha, E413 (I suppose this is its name).
I'm just thinking about how well I have been able to transfer my thoughts into a pretty awesome chapter... wrote 56, uploaded until 35... meh! :p
-
I'm thinking about how I've noticed that we are getting very close to a forum total post count of 400,000. As of right now, we have about 200 left to go.
-
Yeah, you're not the only one who is watching the number getting closer... and closer... and closer.. :p
I seriously wonder who will be the lucky one to post the 400000th post in GoF history...
-
I'm thinking about finishing the 2nd part of my new story tonight. I really wanna get that out of the way, even though I have some chores I need to get done, like laundry, and cleaning the apartment up.
-
I am thinking about how to go about writing the second act of my story. I already have the plot planned out, but I need to strike a slightly different tone in the next 17 chapters or so. The gang have recovered from the initial shock of their transformation, after all.
-
Yeah, you're not the only one who is watching the number getting closer... and closer... and closer.. :p
I seriously wonder who will be the lucky one to post the 400000th post in GoF history...
Guess it was me. :p
I'm thinking about how in three weeks exactly, I'll be leading my FIRST tour! Hurry up and get here, spring! :DD
-
How bizarre that it's easier for me to learn to shoot a pistol with a reasonable degree of accuracy than it is for me to learn to draw?
-
Second thoughts on moving to the east coast. I realize I am having a very black/white mentality about it, but if all I am going to do is make everyone that is supposed to support me frustrated because they can't read me or I make them uncomfortable because I don't act accordingly to what is "normal" behavior, what's the point of me going?
-
Reading a bunch of old LBT fanfics made me realize...I should take Twilight Valley off is nearly five year hiatus. Especially, now that I can see where I want to take things.
Unfortunately, many of the long-term fans of TWV are long gone from the forum.
-
I'm wondering how our beloved former user "Path Light" managed to find me on facebook... did I post my account link anywhere? :unsure:
-
Maybe you accidentally revealed your surname somewhere?
EDIT: That news article you posted a while ago. That must be it.
-
Ah okay. Well, I can always block him in case he starts to ask me whether I didn't accept his request :smile
-
I'm thinking about how we just briefly had no running water due to a burst pipe somewhere up the road. It took the utility crew less than two hours to fix it, despite how dark it is outside, so I must say that I'm quite impressed. :yes
-
I'm thinking about how embarrassing my old posts and topics on this forum are. :slap
But I'm too lazy to edit them all.
-
We are not being fooled by the admins today... That's what I'm thinking about :lol
-
I am thinking about how powerful the Chilean earthquake was, a massive 8.3 quake as of the last news update. Apparently the entirety of the pacific coast of South America is under tsunami warnings and watches at the moment. I only know of one member of the forum who is from Chile, but I hope that Chiletrek and any other Chileans on the forum stay safe. I can only imagine that it is a terrifying situation.
-
^ I totally second that! There still happen new quakes, one had even a strength exceeding 7 on Richter-Scala. I've even read it "wasn't the big one yet". Now if that was true... :neutral

EDIT 8/4/14: (due to avoid doubleposting)
Today, in the morning, a 18-years old girl lost control over her car and crashed into a tree with the co-driver's side of the car. If you want to see what once was a car, you may want to look at this picture (http://osthessen-news.de/n1246833/eiterfeld-aktuell-t-dlicher-verkehrsunfall---18-j-hriges-m-dchen-prallt-gegen-baum.html). Upon seeing what has happened to the car, you can probably guess that she didn't make it.
Now why am I talking about this? Well, first of all, I didn't know the girl (luckily, it hasn't been one of my friends). However, I have had enough time in school to think about a few aspects... I was trying to imagine how her parents, her whole family and her friends would feel. Well, here are my conclusions: I find it just horrible when a parent outlives their child... I mean, you are seeing your kids grow and mature, you spent lots and lots of time, money and effort to make them what they are. Since the girl seemingly was driving way too fast, everything, 18 years of your life, has been for naught... I personally have never been in a situation where I was desperate due to losing a loved one (pets don't count). True, I have lost two people that were close to me in my life, but neither of them played an absolutely unreplaceable role in my life. Since in both cases their passing was only a matter of time anyway, it didn't really hurt much. Now imagine you have a daughter and you're losing her THAT way. How would you feel? I can only imagine one reaction to this that a mother or a father would show: A total breakdown. I would be crushed and I'm not that easy to break down mentally (I suppose). I would probably feel like giving up. I could go on but I do think you get the point...
Now think about her life... What has her life been like? Studying, studying, more studying... and that was it... Like I said, everything was for naught!
This is sort of moving me and making me thoughtful... She just threw 18 years of living away... just because she was SPEEDING!
:(
Well, once I have my driver's license (will probably take me a few months), I will never drive too fast... As long as I will not be steady and experienced, that is. I don't want to die on the roads...
-
About my licensing exam today, but I think I'll do fine. :) I'm pretty good with DC knowledge, and I can get 30 out of 100 wrong on it, so that's some good leeway. :yes Just hope the rain isn't problematic to drive in. :unsure:

How the elites of a huge part of Europe adhere to an ideology that eats the continent and its people form the inside out (economically, politically, culturally) and how such a weakened Europe will be easy prey to more Darwinian ideologies from the other side of the Mediterranean.
And that Eurovision has added another drop to a cup that is near overflowing.
-
Thinking about how much stuff I would like to do in my school next year.
-
Thinking about our missing cat
-
I am thinking about how it is hard to believe that I will be 31 in just a few hours. :blink: Although most of my birthday festivities occurred last weekend, I am still looking forward to having dinner with some friends of mine tomorrow.
-
I'm thinking about a newspaper clip my grandmother left here a few days ago for my sister. (A few friends of my sister went on a trip to Germany a few months ago.) According to what I've read, the high school of my hometown of Vergennes has been doing an exchange student program with the German city of Bochum since 1987. If I'm not mistaken, that happens to be the exact city where fellow GoF member Malte lives. Small world, isn't it?
-
Thinking about summer vacation.
My family and I are leaving for South Padre Island tomorrow.

[LONG POST] (If it's too offensive, you may delete or move this to the AM, admins)
Thinking about... myself or rather what is possibly wrong with me. Don't worry, I'm fine. I'm feeling great but there's something that worries me and makes me happy at the same time. It's hard to explain. So where to start? Well, maybe I should state what made me think about this matter in the first place: Watching two children movies recently (Ronia, the Robber's Daughter & Vicky the Viking). In both movies, two children are the main characters and in both movies we got a boy and a girl. Another thing they share is the fact that the parents are really tough guys but that's not important. What is important, and that brings us back to the thing that worries me, is the fact that both stories have a sort of love thingy. Since we're talking about children movies, this is of course only having a crush on each other if at all but still... I'll explain:
Starting with Ronia: Ronia and Birg are the children of two hostile groups of robbers. At first they behave just like their parents would since they're "talking to the enemy" but since both save each other in tricky situations they drop the hostility of their folks and begin to develop a deep friendship. When their parents forbid their friendship, they run away from home and live in the surrounding woods together. They consider themselves siblings and they are very close to each other. Due to various events, the two groups eventually drop their hatred towards each other and ally. Consequently, the two decide to return home... together. Overall a very sweet story.
Now moving to Vicky: Vicky and Ilvy are kids of Vikings. Vicky isn't strong and stupid like all the others but weak and very intelligent (on a side note: Similar set-up to HTTYD). Ilvy is the only other kid who believes in Vicky and she really likes him in a childish way. When Vicky constructs a kite because of Ilvy's wish to fly, he sees a hostile ship from up there. While he gets stuck in a tree, Ilvy alerts the vikings having had a wild party the previous night. In the fight, the kids are taken away including Ilvy. Vicky wasn't caught for being stuck in said tree. When the Vikings seek revenge, Vicky manages to smuggle himself onto their ship and a great adventure begins. In the end, it is Vicky's brains that saves all the children and the Vikings. In the end, Ilvy tries to admit her crush but something always interrupts her.
If you read this far, thanks. Now I'm getting to the point:
While watching these two movies... at the end I was like: "When will they kiss already?"
Neither of them did, much to my disappointment :p But that's just the point, isn't it? We're talking about movies aimed at children and I'm thinking about them kissing. Like kids fall in love at that age... At least, not really. When I was like 9-12 years old, I've also had my little crush on a girl but it was, honestly, nothing serious.
Anyways, before I'll try to do a self-diagnosis, have some more facts about me that indicate the very same thing:
I highly adore child singers/musicians and actresses (well, girls, that is). Especially the former. On the one hand, they have talent; one main reason why I adore them BUT, on the other hand, I like them for their cuteness.
I get along with children and people younger than me in general very well while I'm not that popular amongst people of my age. When I'm driving to school by bus, I'm usually talking to a bunch of young girls (11-12 years old). One of them is the daughter of a good friend of my mum's and since she entered middle school we've grown a friendship. Funnily, her friends like me just as much. Though one might say that they adore me rather than the other way around, this is a thing anybody would consider weird (thanks or reminding me constantly, sis :rolleyes ). In general though, as I indicated, younger people accept me easily while people my age don't really do (well, some of them do). While boys think I'm cool (people my age thinking the very opposite), girls like me for reasons I don't know. Maybe it's just not being arrogant, saying "Eugh, those rotten little kids, can't they shut up!?" Many people think that way, sadly. They were kids themselves, gee!
Well, I like cartoons. Many people do but it's supporting my theory.
Quite funnily, Ducky is my favourite character, being a girl and, without any doubt, the most childish LBT character.
I've never had a girlfriend yet. Considering my age this isn't unnormal at all but still... it fits. Well, my crushes have always been rather shy, beautiful girls. My shyness always prevented me from actually doing more than seeking eye-contact only to look away whenever they looked at me. They all were not older than 13. Though that was still when I was about their age. Currently, I have a crush on a girl 4 years younger than me. She's 14 though only since a few weeks... relationships like that aren't unheard of and clearly not weird but still... it fits. In general, I never liked girls with big boobs. I'm not attracted by "attractive" girls but by those who are not.
I can have weird thoughts sometimes...
A fetish of mine that I don't want to reveal has to do with children in a way that would probably offensive though I don't want to what it suggests... or rather, I don't want to make them what the fetish is about.
Enough talking I suppose. I'll make it short: I believe I'm pedophile. I'd NEVER do what many people think ALL pedophiles do though. I would NEVER want to hurt a child. I like kids but not in THAT way. I'd never want to **** them. It's destroying so many young souls and that's why I'm so worried about this. You know, I don't want to be what I am but can I change it? Pedophilia is not an illness you can cure as far as I'm aware. It's a form of sexiality just like being gay or bi. If you're gay, you can't teach or brainwash people into being hetero. We are what we are, huh?
So yeah, I only fear that I, one day, become what I don't want to become. On top of that, I always feel guilty for even thinking about young girls or looking at them in a funny way. I can't help it.
Just needed to get this off my chest. Thanks to everyone who read 'till the end and I hope this revelation won't change your perception of me.
~Ducky123~

No offense, but thank you for the good laugh! After the part where you said you suspect you could be a pedophile I simply couldn't contian myself.
No, you're not a pedophile. Don't worry about it. My best friend also has a preference for younger girls and it has bugged him for years (he's 25, and when he was 18 he dated a 14 year old, and when he was 23 he dated a 17 year old; now he is courting a 22 year old). The reason you like younger girls is simply because you get better feedback from them, because you have an endearing and somewhat "soft" personality for a guy. Girls of your age probably find you too soft, while younger girls see a guy that is both sweet and manly (compared to their peers). So, though there is some physical attraction, the joy of getting along with a compatible personality is not to be ignored.
My friend on the other hand, is extremely sociable (above you and far above me), and is generally liked by everyone, but he is very emotional and somewhat childish. Thus again, girls of his age get somewhat put off by this (and no offense to female members of the GOF, but women have very high standards when they're in their mid 20s/ early 30s), but younger girls find him just great.
Now, when he is getting closer to age of 30, the consistent age discrepancy between him and his dates is getting blurred, partly because age discrepancy loses its significance as people grow older, partly because he is indeed not a pedophile.
It will likely be the same in your case when you reach his age.
I have a problem with women, but of a different kind. I'm attracted to women whose personality could be aptly described with a single word- dragons. Of my age or older, strong, intelligent, but also playful and somewhat perverse. But as a knight entering the dragon's layer without his sword and armor, you're lucky just to get out alive and un-humiliated out of such a confrontation.
That's why I'm trying to alter and tone down my desires and settle down with a normal girl.
-
Thank you very much for your kind words, Hrvoje. I sure hope that you are right. I am indeed a rather "soft" person; your explanations make sense to me. As much as I do hope to get over this eventually and find a girlfriend one day, I hope you will be lucky as well :)

Kicking myself for failing to archive amazing stuff I found on the Internet.
I'm especially irked by these:- Silver by Regina Demonica
- The Rikken region by Flygon 101
- A video that depicted TF2's Demoman vs Soldier as a PokÈmon Stadium-style battle.
- TCB: The Palladium Wings
- SouthPawRacer's art for LBT: Future Wars
Granted, I have partial pieces of Flygon's works and TCB: The Palladium Wings but compared to the original, it's like having only half of Tom Clancy's novel.
And Silver, that video and SouthPawRacer's art are never to be seen again. Even with Archive.org. My only hope for Silver is to root through all my memory sticks and hard drives. :cry
-
I finally figured out why I can't lose these last few pounds. I'm not eating enough. So now I'm wondering where the heck I'm going to get those extra calories.
-
Wondering what it is about me that's so repellant to other people. :(
It seems to be my curse in life that no matter what social situation or relationship I find myself in, I either find myself stuck on the sidelines, feeling like an outsider with no place in the group; or, on the occasions when I try to take charge of my own social life and manage to heave myself into a position of acceptance, I unwittingly commit some social gaffe or expose some unidentified aspect of my personality that scares other people away, thus alienating myself from the person or social group I was attempting to interact with.
I can't understand what I'm doing wrong. Anyone who knows me should be aware of how quick I am to pontificate on my own flaws and deficiencies, but even with my rock-bottom level of self-esteem, I've long thought of myself (and strived to be) a friendly, easygoing, generous, courteous, patient, humble, moral, open-minded, non-judgmental person. So what am I doing wrong? Why is it that whenever I meet someone who shares my interests and to whom I express a desire to be friends with, they never return my e-mails or phone calls, or follow up on my appeals to communicate again sometime soon?
Keep in mind, these are all platonic relationships; I can't say I've never felt the slightest romantic or sexual interest towards anyone I've ever met. Could my problem be that I'm too friendly, too emotionally open, too quick to do generous things like pay for lunch or give a piece of artwork, that the people I try to befriend think I'm interested in them romantically? This is something I've often worried about, but at the same time I feel like it would make people uncomfortable if I were to put too fine a point on the fact that I am only looking for platonic friendships, or that I consider myself essentially asexual. Again, I feel like I'm doomed to failure at making friends, no matter which choices I make.
It's times like this when I feel like I'm beyond all hope of growing as a person; that my life's a dead end and that I'd be better off dying and sparing the rest of the world the inconvenience of having me around. My drive to accomplish things has all but withered away. Drawing and writing are slow, boring, agonizing processes for me now, and I take hardly any joy in them. Everything I do feels like an exercise in futility. Whenever I hear news about the world today (especially where wildlife and the environment are concerned), I grow ever more hopeful that I will not live long enough to witness the logical outcome of the events in question. Even my own ideas and ambitions for how I might potentially benefit the world look like impossible dreams with no chance of being fulfilled. I'm too slow, too eccentric, too forgetful, too inadequately skilled for this world. It's a depressing, lonely, pitiful thing to be me. :cry
-
^How well did you know these people before trying to get close to them? Maybe people have the impression that you appear out of the blue in their lives? Maybe you should go more gradually and stop aiming to please so much in the beginning. You could come across as having ulterior motives, not necessarily romantic (especially not to the male sex). Figure in the likelihood that the people you're trying to befriend are as socially insecure as yourself or even more, and there you have it; people become silent all of a sudden.
Friendships can rarely be planned in advance, but nevertheless, there is one avenue you could pursue: find someone who shares at least some of your interests, but has a larger circle of friends then yourself. It doesn't have to be somebody very popular or prestigious, in fact, at this point, approach that kind of person only if you really like them. Then, try to go along with his/her friends even if they don't share your interests. In a larger and more diverse group of people, the group isn't so monolithic, and you will be perceived less as an outsider than in a smaller group. People will feel more comfortable to let you approach them, and you should use that opportunity. Eventually, they may even approach you, even if you didn't have so much in common in the beginning. And then you can use those people to get to know other people that suit you better, or deepen the relationship with them. The choice is yours.
The point is, stick with one group and work from there. Be there, talk with people, or interject when you feel is convenient (don't wait for the perfect moment, though, cause it might not arrive!), and very importantly, don't say everything that is on your mind. I don't know if your drink, but some drinking can also greatly "grease the wheels". Since you are very well versed in the area of your expertise, a tiny pinch of pride also won't hurt you. ;) People will see you as being independent and those who don't know you well won't be afraid that you will smother them emotionally. And if you make a mistake (in a group), which you inevitably will, try to diminish it's importance and move on (unless you made it while alone with someone, then apologise), and afterwards you can discuss the issue with the person from the group you feel closest to.
That's it from the top of my head.

I'm thinking about how I really need to work on going to bed earlier. I used to think 2am was a late time to go to sleep, but over the past week, I've been unable to be in bed before 3am, and some nights even 4am! -_-
-
I've been thinking about how fun it would be to reboot The Land Before Time series. There are endless possibilities as far as I'm concerned when it comes to fanfiction.
-
I'm trying to figure out if what I wrote in another forum is actually English or just something I imagined :lol
-
I've been thinking about being a voice actor for quite some time :)
-
I didn't realize all the steps one needs to take to get in to EMT school :blink:. There is an increasing demand for EMT-certified employees within my workplace, and it's something I've been wanting to do but have placed it on the backburner due to both long commutes and paying for grad school. With my new job starting next month, I will be closer to a university town where the course is offered. Problem is, they may only have it in the fall, when I have other big things going on including this contract ending. I'm waiting to hear back from them to see if they offer it sooner. I'm not driving three hours or more one way to Vegas minimum once a week for a course. So many details to work out :p.
-
I spend WAY TOO MUCH time in forums... I should do something about it.
-
Nostalgia.
I'm browsing through my archive of fanfiction and recalling how I first got involved in it.
And then I saw mentions and snippets of long-vanished fanfictions.
All I could do is shake my head and sigh. There will never be a way to retrieve them.
-
Mostly thinking about the next week and the quite possible tests/quizzes it brings O_o
:bang
Also about those one or ten new stories I really really really want to work on, gaaaah!
-
I'm thinking about what Lbt 14 will be like...
-
How to get the Convention of States effort through, what to write next for my fanfics, and, of course,
(http://i566.photobucket.com/albums/ss110/wenguin/Chompereat.png)

My experiences online, the good, the bad, and the most intriguing. And when I'm going to have time to actually find and make time for a home cooked meal. And I can't use my crock pot for this one so...
And I'm wondering how I should work this chore thing out with my roommate. I don't want to be the maid and clean everything, I don't want to be her mom and bother her to clean the areas we both share, but she needs prompting and more structure to do her chores and I feel like I need to light a fire under her butt in order to get her to take care of things, otherwise if it wasn't for me, our home would be a pig-sty.
-
Sorry for double posting.
I remember joining here, I'm looking back at old topics/posts I made and it's a very...removed experience to see how I was back then, vs how I am now. On one hand, it's embarrassing to see the mistakes I made and how I reacted in some situations, but I understand why I needed to make those choices and eye-opening to see just how down on myself I was, how much I just loathed who I was, and detached from reality I was.
-
Here's what I've been thinking about recently. When it comes to fanfiction, you know you've made something popular when you see it mentioned on tvtropes.org. (In my particular case, LEGO Equestria Girls is mentioned as a Fan Works example on this page (http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/AdaptationExpansion).)
-
In a little bit of a follow-up from last week's post, I've just recently discovered on tvtropes.org two references to my second LEGO Equestria Girls fanfic. The first is as a Fan Works example on this page (http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/TheAtoner). The second is for the quote at the top of this page (http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/CaptainColorbeard).
I can't help but think about how amusing it is that a little piece of dialogue that I wrote no more than just two months ago, intended as just another piece of Lego-style quirky humor, is now the example quote atop a TV Tropes page. (As far as I'm concerned, the only thing that would make all of this even better would be if this fanfiction series of mine actually got its own page on that site.)
-
Thinking about how much creative activity I'd like to do. I want to get many things done, like composing, arranging, and recording music, as well as writing my fanfic, but with other events and interests getting in the way, and with school coming up in about a month, I feel the time I need is being drained to do such things. If only I could find a way to get things done without interference...
-
^Join the club...
I'm thinking (or rather wondering) how I managed to sleep until 1 pm :blink:
-
I'm thinking about how a lot of aspects in my life have recently changed quite a bit in such a short amount of time. The catalyst? I managed to get a seasonal job that I will be starting tomorrow and will last for just two and a half weeks.
First of all, my sleeping schedule had steadily worsened over the years, interestingly in a pattern where I stayed up one more hour later with each passing year, ultimately reaching a point where this summer it was rare for me to go to bed while it was still completely dark outside. Now that I'll have to be at work by 8 am (albeit for just 12 days), I've been forced to get back to being in bed at a much earlier time, earlier enough that it's actually been years since I regularly did so at such a time. It's a bit of a struggle, but I think I'll be able to get used to it soon enough.
In addition to that, in order to be in contact with my parents so they know when to pick me up from work, I was just given a new smartphone, the very first one I've ever owned in my entire life. Until now, I occasionally thought to myself how amusing it was that my technological capabilities were apparently stuck in the year 2006, since I knew absolutely nothing about smartphones. (Then again, I never really had an email address until late 2007, so I guess I tend to always be a few years behind the times.) For the last few days, my parents have been helping me get use to the kind of device that apparently everyone is expected to have in this day and age, so we'll see how I'll be able to handle this new (for me) technology.
And I also just recently got a new pair of glasses. I couldn't get the same frames I got last time, so I had to settle for something that was close enough. It's certainly taking some getting used to, but for the most part, it seems to be working fine for me, so far.
Well, here's hoping I can get through this new job.
-
I'm thinking about trying to go to bed earlier instead of late

Why the heck I'm still on here when I need to sleep :wacko
-
I'm thinking about how, once again, I seem to be needlessly overwhelmed with all kinds of things I'm doing in my admittingly substantial free time. Between gaming and fanfiction writing (on another site), I've been unable to find the time to read any fanfictions on this site for over a week now.
As pleased as I am to have seen Rhombus and Fyn bring a lot of activity to that section of this site, I think the obvious downside I was fearing has finally come true for me: there is simply too much in so little time for me to keep up with it all!
-
When a 15th land before time movie will come...

I admit I'm in the same boat there :lol
-
Thinking about the possibility of Jim Cummings as the voice of Grandpa Longneck if there is a 15th installment. I wasn't happy with the casting choice for Grandpa Longneck in the 14th film. I think Jim Cummings did a great job for his voice role of Sierra in the 7th film; so, I think he'd be good enough to voice Grandpa Longneck.
-
Yeah the voice actors for the 14th movie where horrible and where choosen poorly. But maybe you're right maybe Jim Cummings might be a better choice
-
I'm thinking about how astonishing it is that the internet access on my laptop got really bad after more than two weeks of not going into full-on "Shutdown" and instead just going into "Hibernate" mode at the end of each day. Thankfully, the monthly Windows Update came up today, and after a longer than usual restart, everything seems to be working as good as new again.
-
My busy couple of days coming up but they're gonna be fun tho.
-
"will somebody respond on by bump this time?"
-
I'm thinking about whether to do an alternate ending to one of the Land Before Time sequels or not. And maybe I'll think about upgrading my computer one of these days; maybe at the end of the year when the prices aren't so high; or maybe wait until after the boxing week sales since all department stores and malls are packed during the holidays and the first week of January.
-
I'm thinking about how to get rid of most of my old posts in this forum. They are outright embarrassing. Is there a way to display all my posts instead of just my created topics?
-
I'm thinking about my day at work today. I worked really hard and now almost every part of my body is weary. After a good night's sleep I should be back on track. :)
-
I'm currently trying to decide what I want to have for supper, as I am starting to get hungry.
-
Currently trying to think how to spend my day. I'll probably read a book. That sounds like a good plan.
-
Reading books is always a good plan. Speaking of which, I'm thinking that I'll probably head downtown to the library today to pick up a book (Red Rising by Pierce Brown), and possibly have a late lunch downtown as well.

I'm thinking about not procrastinating on my summer assignments so I don't have any unneeded stress or added pressure once September arrives again. This would be a tough task indeed, but I can accomplish anything if I put my mind to it! :P
-
That's the spirit. I wish you good luck! :yes
-
Thanks Anagnos, I need it.
Well, I have all four of the assignments as of today. Honestly, they're not that bad at all. I thought it was going to be worse, but the workload is quite fair given the amount of time we have for summer vacation. English and AP Psychology will take a bit longer, but the other two I could possibly finish in just one or two days if I worked a lot on those. I'm relieved overall. :)
But still, I shan't procrastinate! :lol
-
That's good that you don't have too large of a workload. Gotta get some enjoyment out of summer right?
Speaking of enjoying summer, tomorrow after work I'll be heading out for the weekend to do a little hiking trip on Saturday. Looks like I might be lucky as Saturday and Sunday are the only 2 sunny days in the forecast :p
-
That sounds fun, Flathead! :lol:
-
Tomorrow is the last full day of school for me. Then after that for two weeks will be all regents/finals. I've prepared well for Geometry and Living Environment, so I should do excellent on them. :)
-
Good luck, ImpracticalDino! :yes
-
I was kind of hyperventilating in school today. I just cannot believe the school year flew by like that. Freshman yesterday, sophomore the next.
Tempus fugit can't be any truer than it already is.
-
Seeing your post reminds me of my college days.
-
I just took my Geometry Regents today. It was pretty easy for the most part, except for a few questions that gave me a hard time because either I forgot the concept, or because it's just very hard itself. All in all, it was pretty painless mostly. :)
-
Realizing that it is almost the end of November and almost Christmas. My one year anniversary on this forum is basically imminent at this point. :)
Sometimes I really wished that I could learn anything I want at anytime, for as long as I want, at the pace that’s comfortable for me as well, so that I could pursue the things I really want and the topics that really matter to me. :/
School doesn’t seem to offer that freedom of course.
-
Realizing how much I miss our chats.
-
I'm thinking about how long it has been since I wrote anything. I'm starting to miss that.
-
It's been quite a while since I've written anything as well. Thankfully, I am going to resume working on my December story prompt today. :idea
-
Thinking about how I hate school when it's vacation, but am suddenly okay with it when the semester starts. The irony.

I just hate school all the time tbh, but I still love the friends and socializing aspect of it. :p

Yeah, by and large I was not a big fan of school either, but the friends and socialization was a bright spot.

I just took a glance at the board statistics and it looks like we are currently less than four thousand posts away from reaching 500,000 total forum posts. I remember certain members celebrating how they were the ones who made the 100,000th, 200,000th, 300,000th, and 400,000th posts, so it seems the next such milestone will soon be upon us.

This is pretty exciting. I wonder who will make the 500,000th post? We're currently at the 497.4k mark as of writing this post.
As to what I'm thinking about, I have this pet peeve about a certain feature of this forum for awhile now. I absolutely understand the reason why it was implemented in the first place, but it's still very annoying to deal with to be honest. :p

:anger :anger :anger

I agree. I too understand why that feature is there, but yeah, it is annoying. Especially since, if you wait out the fifteen seconds and then click the back button, and then try to post again, you get another error message saying you've already made that post or something like that, but then it won't actually let the post actually go through.
:!

The solution to that problem is that after you get the error message, immediately press the back button, refresh the page, and then wait 15 seconds. The post should go through after that. :)
...Do I sense another forum suggestion Stardust? :Mo

hmm, I guess this feature is for ones who likes to.. ahem.. spam recent posts page all the time? In one hour? :evilsmile

This trick works because a post is saved in cache, so you can press back and it's indeed saved. :p

I'm thinking about whether I can get some more work done on my new prompt that is soon approaching its deadline. My plan is to have it ready for publishing before January is over, and by the looks of things, I will be able to make that deadline even if I didn't work on it yesterday. That's my usual routine: try to write every day, but I can't always hold on to that promise. :)
-
I too try to get at least a little bit of writing done every day. :yes In this case, I will likely have to submit my Dec story prompt incomplete and just finish up the remaining chapters later. Hopefully I can still get my drawings done on time though!
-
1,225 registered members as of yesterday! How far the community as a whole come was on my mind.

Phew, now we're basically ~200 posts from the 500,000th milestone. The anticipation is real... :olittlefoot
The thing that's even more surreal is how close the forum is to 10 million total page views. The current number as of now is 9,977,708 and counting.

Definitely rethinking my future use of my laptop after today.
I've been using this laptop for exactly ten years now, and today, the power adapter has suddenly failed. Thankfully, the laptop itself still works perfectly fine, and I was very lucky to have a spare power adapter to replace the old one (otherwise, I would've been left with whatever amount of time a single full battery would've lasted).
I understand how unbelievable it is that this laptop has been able to last for this long, and I suppose I was dreading the very real possibility that it might cease to function someday soon. I've been regularly saving copies of my in-progress fanfiction writing for the last few years, and in just the last year I've been adjusting my web browsing habits so that, in the event I lose the laptop and thus my browser history, I can pretty much continue where I left off with minimal disruption. My plan prior to today had been to purchase a new laptop sometime later this year, finish my current fanfiction work on this laptop, and then transfer my browser history and documents over to the new laptop.
However, after losing the old power adapter today, I'm definitely starting to reconsider that plan. As of now, I'm thinking that rather than get a new laptop (seeing as I'm very unlikely to do any significant traveling anytime soon), I'll instead make the transfer to my desktop (a brand new computer I got at the end of last year). With the way my fanfiction progress is, the next opportunity I'll have to make the transfer without any significant disruptions will be about one month from now. Although that's four months ahead of my original plan, it obviously means that I'm going to be really hoping that this old laptop can hold out for at least one more month before I'm ready to adjust everything to move on to my desktop.
-
To follow up on my previous post here, I'm very pleased to report that earlier today, I made an account on my Firefox browser, allowing me to use its "sync" feature to save my browser history between both of my computers, allowing me to use either one of them for my daily web browsing without losing access to any of the websites I frequently visit. For the first time since I first got my laptop way back in late summer of 2010, I am now posting here on GoF using a desktop computer rather than said laptop.
Okay, so it was hardly perfect, seeing as only some of my long-term browser history was transferred over to my desktop. :neutral But it seems my desire to perfectly save my complete browser history was always going to be futile, because it turns out my laptop's browser history maxes out at five and a half years (I was able to determine this by scrolling all the way down to the bottom of my complete browser history and among the earliest pages currently listed was a news article from when Leonard Nimoy passed away).
Still, I'm very happy that I can now comfortably do the vast majority of my web browsing on my desktop. No more waiting several minutes and doing absolutely nothing so my laptop could cool down after little more than opening a bunch of news articles in a short amount of time. No more complaining about having no way to hide all the emoticons while I'm typing posts here because all those moving images slow things down for me. No more getting frustrated whenever I see any posts by Sharpely (no offense, but your moving avatar and flashy signature image were especially excessive on my laptop's CPU usage). No more trying to press hard on certain keys on the keyboard to ensure that those particular letters are actually entered while I'm typing. And finally, no more constantly checking my laptop's resource monitor to ensure I was not at risk of overheating to the point of it suddenly shutting off.
As an added bonus, now that I'm no longer doing any intensive web browsing on my laptop, it turns out that the old thing still seems to run remarkably well. Sure, it still suffers from the occasional unexpected shutdown whenever I try putting it into hibernate mode at the end of the day, but now it's no longer such a big deal anymore. I'm honestly not sure what further use I can make of that old laptop, but I'm definitely gonna hold onto it and occasionally turn it on in case if I do need it. (At this time, the only use I can think of is if I need to use two computers at the same time, such as checking something online on my laptop while I'm also playing a game on my desktop.)
Now I just need to figure out the question of how exactly I'm going to continue with my fanfiction writing, but I think I might already have a potential solution...
-
My thoughts today:
My hope at the beginning of this month had been to not only proceed with the next part of my LEGO Equestria Girls fanfiction series, but also to start off a completely new fanfiction featuring the LBT gang of seven in a world of Lego. The reason for trying to do both simultaneously is because while the long-running former has been going well, I haven't really been given any helpful advice on ways to potentially improve my writing, so I'm hoping that by doing the latter I can encourage the excellent fanfiction reviewers we have here to offer that advice I desire.
Today was supposed to be the day I was planning to post the first chapter of my planned LBT/Lego fanfic, but after having started writing back in September, the relatively short prologue is still incomplete. Clearly, I just got way too many other things going on around me at this time, so I guess I'll just have to set aside this project for a while longer. I'm hoping I'll have more time to spare in the latter half of this year, so we'll just have to wait and see how things go.

The fact that people are whining about the "differences" between The Land Before Time 1 Cera and The Land Before Time 5 Cera and The Land Before Time 5 Chomper and TV series Chomper.
Seriously, The Land Before Time 1 Cera and The Land Before Time 5 Cera look exactly the same and The Land Before Time 5 Chomper and TV series Chomper's only differences are their colors and their claws

The fact that I thought that Michael Tavera did the music for the songs (examples: Better off Alone, How Do You Know?, Yellow Belly Bounce, and Imaginary Friends) starting at Journey to the Mists due to the fact that the music of "Very Important Creature" was extremely similar to Tavera's score until I found out today that Michele Brourman did the music for the songs judging by her work on 2 of the Curious George films which had similar sounding songs but they were generally scored by Germaine Franco rather than Michael Tavera.

Now it's just a matter of whether it can fully deploy and prove to be fully functional, which we won't know for sure until June at the earliest.

I'm thinking about how... quiet it's been around here lately. The last post made by anyone anywhere on this site was made by me just over 24 hours ago.
I always check in on this site every day, though with how little overall activity there's been, it's rare that I spend more than a couple minutes glancing around before moving on to the next thing in my daily routine. So, I wonder... how many members here are actually visiting regularly, even if they don't seem to ever have anything to post?
-
And it seems my thoughts today have wandered to the same subject as I had previously posted here. Though, on a more specific note... when's the last time we ever had one of those annual forum awards voting? Have things around here really gone so quiet that we just don't seem to bother with them anymore?
-
Supernatural! :ChomperPOG

Hmm...if I recall correctly, on one of the years they didn't do it they cited being busy as one reason. I am not sure about the rest of the years though, as I wasn't on the forum that much for the past few years really.
-
As for the awards - yes we stopped doing them because there was very little activity (and it's actually a looot of work to organize it all :) ). Sadly at some point we had to decide that with less than 10 active members, and just several hundred posts over the year, there really wouldn't be many people/posts to vote for.
That said, if activity picks back up and people can actually start making choices again, we wouldn't be against reanimating them. Hoping that is the case now that people no longer have to wait for their activation email and more new members can grace our forum again.
I'm thinking about my upcoming time off. Really need it :D

Awww, what a shame. I understand. It was always such a fun event, where all of us can reminiscent over the interactions and friendships that were made over the course the forum year. It also allows us to extend our thanks, appreciation, and gratitude to those that mean most to us. Highlighting the strengths and the unique attributes that the participating members of the forum have is great as well.
(But well, actually these things can be done at any time of the year, but still there's definitely no harm in having the event return)
Actually...fitting to this thread, I am thinking about what you said. "if... people can actually start making choices again."
To-o-o-o be fairrrrr... pretty much everyone here is awesome. :celebrate :birthday :cheers
So perhaps I wouldn't mind too much if that was the real reason for the awards being on hiatus. :p
We are a close knit community... family... and hopefully can always stay that way! :spikeblush

Haha, fair points, and well said! One big family indeed :)

I'm thinking about the bake sale that I have to help manage tomorrow at my college club.
