Well, bursts of inspiration is fine too, right? xD
Oh, why not proofread stuff, then? Find people who write and proofread for them, a lot of writers out there could probably use a proofreader.
I remember when I kept trying to get Altair to do something and he would just try to run up a wall he couldn't, lol. Especially when you're trying to get away to a spot you can hide xD
Well, sounds like fun, anyway. I'll see if I can go give them a try again, lol
Mm, I see.

Oh yes you do. Now go get the record for the most gold stars out of the entire universe!
Oh, that might be a bit of a problem. Maybe you could donate a gold star to solve it. xDD

Ah, I see. Well, maybe some people decided it was neccesary, so waste of time and money for people
At least it's not that difficult of a class, right?

Haha, that's true.
Hmm, there was this thing someone told me before, how being a parent is completely different from being a friend [for their children]. Or something like that. Basically, as a parent being a parent to your kid is different from being their friend, I guess. Well, that was probably already quite obvious, but still.
It's a lot harder to hide your problems from someone you're living with, anyway, so I would think you would know better.

Oh. Well, then there's something you can look forward to taking a few years down the line, lol.
lol I see. Well, that was probably a reference to the original saying about life giving you lemons and making lemonade out of them.
But confusing the world is more fun. xD

Not a writer, huh. Well, it's fine as long as you enjoy writing, right?
I see. Well, recommending things to me only makes me hyped about things I probably will never get (legally, anyway, if I do somehow), lol. I have tried AC 1 before though, and it was fun.
I wish I had one too. Well, there's a lot of things I don't mind having, lol xD

You'll get more god stars then they can supply them to you at this rate xD
Mm, I see. Might want to see a marriage counselor about that, lol xD

Oh, really? Might be a difference in our classes/major or something.

It's true you might be a bit biased, but from what you've told me I'm more than inclined to agree with what you said, lol
The thing is, just about everyone else don't see your mom as often as you do, so you would have a better understanding of what she's really like. Basically, false pretenses whenever others are around.

Well, if you don't plan to go to graduate school you don't have to bother, lol
You know what? The next time life gives you lemons, make grape juice. Then sit back and watch the world try to figure out how you did it.
Confuse life while you're at it too. Take that, life! See what it's like to get confused!

Oh yes, it was.
You're right, I find Mibba really easy to forget about as well. Well, I still have the desire to write, but when I do it's either ony a segment of a story that I'll probably never write, which isn't suitable for posting on here, or because it's full of inside jokes no one would really get. The latter I just send directly to those who would get it lol
Ah, I see. Sometimes I wish I could play AC.
And the new ssb that came out too, lol
No, not really. Well, it's school, what can I expect. xD

Being resourceful, yay! xD Here's another gold star for you :P
Hmm. Well, that may be true, circumstances may change us a bit, including how we act.
lolol
that was fast, getting a new friend and being married on the first(?) day of that class xD

Yeah, that sounds about right.

I see, I see.
I was just the quiet kid who sat in his room all day not disturbing anyone until he faded into obscurity...
lol jk
but that sounds about right xD

Oh, is that so?
It's hard for parents not to pick favorites, but it's also not that good of a thing to do, I think. Even more so when those favorites aren't their own children >.<
Well, as long as the situation was better than before, I guess.

The GRE is a kind of standardized testing- oh, did I lose you already?
lol jk
basically it's one of the tests you can take when you want to apply to grad school, after college. So I suppose it is relatively important, but you don't have to worry about it right now.
And yeah, not much I could have done about it. It was the irony of it all that made it amusing xD

Of course, I died and came back, millions of times. It was an enlightening experience for me.
lol jk, it was as you thought, I was busy. Then I forgot about Mibba after I wasn't busy. OTL
I see xD I did most of that too, except arguing with my roommate. lol
School... bleh
Let me put it this way
Thursday was 1st day of school
One of my classes started on Friday, though. On that day, the professor assigned us a group project, due on the following Monday.
Not a simple project either, a legit, research project.
I don't think it needs to be said that there was barely any time to work on it >.<

I see. Well, I'm introverted, and I get it, so you can't get out of it with me! :P
...Not that it matters or that you would need to, since I would understand anyway lol
Well, it's easy to appear less introverted as you grow up. Introversion doesn't mean being a bad speaker or conversationalist; it would be more accurate to say that even if an introvert is great at talking or being friendly, an introvert would prefer to spend time alone to 'recharge', so to speak.
And yeah, I know what you mean by that. Even with people I know pretty well, I find myself trying to figure out what to say, and by the time I do so much time has passed that I start trying to wonder if it's okay to say it, and then by the time I do come to a decision waaay too much time has passed or the topic has already changed and I haven't even said anything, lol
You're right, relationships can start from the weirdest things xD
Ok, you were making the best excuse you ever could for your situation. Here's a gold star for you :P

Hmm, true enough.

Actually, now that I think about it, the topic probably did come up because of alcohol or something. lol
I think it was something about celebrating graduation and how some students drank alcohol?
But yeah, I think you're right about bringing it up.

Maybe weird things happen in the dorms because of the people living in there this time. Maybe there's another dorm or floor there where the majority of the people are quiet and don't make a fuss, lol
When I lived in the dorms freshman year, I was probably the only one on my floor that sat in my room all the time. People were sometimes noisy, but I never bothered to leave to find out what was going on.
Well, my floor was actually mixed gender, but that didn't really bother me, since the rooms were of the same gender, and I never really left my room.
Sharing the bathroom/shower might have been a bit awkward maybe for some people, though.
Then again, students probably knew that when they were asked if they minded mixed gender or not for living in dorms.

You should do homework early anyway and not procrastinate like I do all the time! lol jk
I think that applies more to me than you, lol.
Anyway, you'll probably get used to dorm life in time.

They're divorced now, huh. How are you feeling about it?

As for myself, school started last week, but I think you know that already. Otherwise, not much seems to have happened recently.
Oh, I took the GRE over the summer; I was bashing my head during the test because of the irony that occurred
I'll keep it vague because otherwise I might be breaking the confidentially agreement, but here's how it went:
A long time ago, I've been planning to write a story with a certain topic for the theme.
I never got around to writing it, though.
Then I take the test, and for that writing prompt, that VERY SAME theme pops up, and I was like: ....WRRRYYY
lol
In other words I could have actually prepared for it without realizing it, lol
oh well xD

Oh snap. I didn't even realize you left a reply on my profile until now, my bad.
I must have been even more out of it then I thought back then.
Well, things have calmed down a bit and heated up again (school just started again... yeah, I know it's late, lol)
Anyway, sorry for the late reply.

I'm going to reply anyway to your comment, so feel free to look back or something. Or not, we can start a new topic too lol

Anyway, As for that problem, it's certainly one like that of an introvert (I do feel that way sometimes, but since I don't hang out very much in the first place I'm more or less fine for the most part.)
In any case, another problem with most (but not all) introverts is being unable to express themselves very well (in other words, knowing what to say). I don't think either of you are being a bad friend; it's just usually hard for an extrovert to understand how an introvert thinks, and vice versa.
And yes, I do think that theory fits pretty well. They do say that opposites attract, but I think it can also be said that when they do, they can cancel each other's weaknesses. Or something like that.
Well, human relationships are pretty complicated. Lots of different things can build a relationship and keep it strong, even if they don't make sense sometimes.
So no, you're probably not just making excuses.
Or you can say you were making legitimate excuses, lol.

lol perhaps. Although it's technically also my problem if I'm unable to help since I should have already learned those things... in theory. lol

Yeah, you're right.
As for puking, the experience itself certainly isn't pleasant. I think knowing you'll feel better and it working applies after the entire experience is already over, though. And sometimes one pukes repeatedly in a row... Not very pleasant at all.
anyway, how did we even get to this topic? I have no idea, lol. oh well.

In any case, how have you been? It's been a few months since you wrote, so we might as well catch up or something.

Hmm. What about a friend that would try to turn your bad mood into a not so bad one?
Hmm, I see. I don't really hang out much, so I don't think I have that problem much. Yet.

Haha, that's true. On the other hand it's somewhat intimidating for me since sometimes I'm afraid that I would be unable to help my younger friends, lol. Those worries usually have been quickly removed each time so far, but still. lol

How many classes are there where all the students in it pay attention...? I wonder. lol xD
But yeah, I learned that too...somewhere. Sometime ago, I don't remember. Apparently I don't bother to remember these things, huh -_-
Well, that's true.
And I don't think puking is ever a great experience, lol

Well, there are a lot of different things that can define an introvert, so I think that's fine.
But yeah, sometimes it is hard for some people to understand concepts alien to them. But it's nice that that friend asked that, I don't think anyone ever asked me, lol.
Then again, even if I was asked I wouldn't know at all. lol

I see. But just not only a curse, right? I'm sure there are other benefits as well.

haha, yeah. Although, I don't think most people even know it's a depressant... idk.
And yeah, you're right about that. Maybe that's why people still use it.
Hey, there's nothing wrong with thinking too much at times... I think. lol
Yep, no puking involved xD

Yeah, I think that's what it means to be an introvert. I mean, the recharging when alone, thing.
Doesn't mean introverts can't have fun when other people are around, though, although they usually find it exhausting to some extent.

Yep, Not being mad about it is fine. I probably wouldn't be all that mad either myself, lol
Not like I think it's an okay thing to do, but on the other hand, things happen, so oh well. Right?

Lol, that's true. Alcohol is a depressant, too. Which is actually kind of ironic when you think about what some people use it for.
But yeah, you're right, I can have a different kind of fun. xD

At least it would stop people from asking! ... Wait, that might not be that great of a trade off after all. Maybe. Unless you're more of an introvert like me, idk.

So I did. xD Although it might have been influenced by me watching some anime recently myself too.

Hmph. What friends they are, they should have attended with you!
lol jk
If it were me...Hmm. After graduation, I'll probably just go straight home and do whatever I usually do when I procrastinate, lol. (ie play games, write, draw, watch stuff, waste time, etc) Such a party pooper I am, I guess. xD
Maybe i have no life, lol

Hmm. Sit in the corner and give everyone the cold shoulder. Literally.
"STOP ASKING ME THESE QUESTIONS" *dumps ice on the shoulders of anyone asking*
lol jk xD

Haha, alright. I can wait until then xD

True, true. xD

lol. Maybe Marathon some anime now?
Ah, I see. Well, that's fine, since it's a new season, I guess.
Well, you still graduated, so yay xD
That would be counting one's chickens before they hatch, eh? He should have gotten drunk afterwards, if he really wanted to get drunk xD
Oh well.

Well, what if they could shoot laser beams that could turn what they hit into mutated pickles?

Huh, football really does sound quite popular there. If it was me I would probably end up hiding in the library or something. xD Maybe less people would ask me there, lol

Well, that's probably why tuition fees can get pretty expensive. At least the colleges try to get the high quality stuff for students, I guess, even if we're the ones paying for it in the end.
lol xD Seems interesting. You can talk about any of those topics if you wanted, lol

Eh. I still procrastinated until the last minute, so....not really much improvement, if at all >.<

lol
Marathoning 3 tv shows all at once, huh? Of course you might feel bored again after all the excitement is over already xD
But hey, once again, congratulations on graduating from high school :P

Hmm. Maybe they can turn other things into mutated pickles?

lol I see. Over here, some people like it, some don't, and since I don't I don't really talk about it much xD
It's not really encouraged, but not really looked down upon, either, I guess.

Ah, I see. Well, some colleges are like that, but funding is still somewhat limited I guess. lol
Nah, you're not boring me, if it's exciting and you want to talk about it go ahead xD

As for me, today's the last day of finals. I'm not done with everything yet, but workload and stress has mostly died down by now. I should probably get back to work though, still have things to do >.<
In other words, I'm procrastinating like usual, lol
How about you?

lol

Aww. Someone should tell them to make the beds more comfy! or else they'll be getting a visit by a certain someone who has a lot of mutated pickles!

lol, I see. Or maybe the few people that care about other things aren't as prominent and don't talk about it as much...
Ooh, sounds nice.

Hmm, that's true. All we can really do is speculate, huh. But we're writers so speculating is fine! :D

lol xD Sounds someone is enjoying their stay there. :P

Well, if it was a university for sports I'll be even less likely to know about it, because I'm not all that into sports, lol xD
So I don't know OU or OSU lolol
But yup, like you said you liking it is all that matters. xD

Maybe the pickles weren't to his liking after all.

lol
wait, in an hour? In that case wouldn't you already be done by now?

I see, I see. I don't know that university at all. lol
Well, you like it so it, so it's fine regardless xD

lol
Well, at least you found out about it xD

Hmm, that might be the case. Maybe that explains what he does.

It might be true that you're going to be cut into, but you also have reason to believe not to be so worried in the first place, so it's fine, isn't it? :P

Sounds pretty cool. xD
Which college did you apply for, if I may ask?

aaah, not again OTL
I guess I haven't been on here for a while... but then again, that's the same mistake I made a lot back then too lol

hmm, that makes sense.
In that case, I wonder if he'll have enough pickles...?

Well, I guess they're worried cause they're not you, an thus makes a big deal out of it?

You got enrolled? That's awesome :D

They ALL need it. They know they do. They just don't want to admit. xD

Hmm, that sounds about right. It'll be awesome! xD

I think you're onto something!
I see. But for now, that means you get to enjoy summer break first, right? :P

Those dictionaries are going to sell out quick, just you watch. xD

A labratory. Makes sense. Must be some crazy mad ingenious scientist in there too, doing who knows what to make that pickle. What a pickle, indeed. xD

Yay, congratz on your graduation :D
And good luck with college when you get there! Or rather, hope you enjoy it, lol

lol ok. let's get this dictionary with only 2 entries published!

A mutated pickle, huh. I wonder how they'll go about getting one of those.

Nah, it's fine. We're all busy sometimes, so don't worry about it. So, I take it you succeeded in making sure you graduate and getting into college and all that? xD
