First of My Name

I'm hoping to finally take courses in creative writing. If that doesn't work out, I wanna do something else that's creative rather than academic, cause I've had my fill of that So yeah, same, I'd love to do another BA, there's so many interesting fields that I'd love to dip my toes in.

Yeah exactly. I'll enjoy it while it lasts Nope, this is the very final bit, which scares me to death as I don't have any plan beyond (maybe) hopefully doing the minor, and the chances of that are pretty low. I might do a post grad, but if I do I want it to be in another subject entirely.

Helena! Good to see you're still around here too. And I'd never thought about Matilda that way, but yeah, that 's definitely applicable. I feel like a lot of the stories I enjoyed as a kid are about the hero finding their own kind of family, maybe that's why I like the subject so much. I actually don't really mind doing my thesis, it's been super beneficial for my productivity to just have one bigger task to focus on instead of having the juggle a bunch of courses that all come with their own deadlines. Thanks!

Yeah, it's good to see you guys are still keeping the thread alive I'm hoping to study creative writing for a year after the summer, but arranging it is a major hassle (a long and very bureaucratic story). But I think it should work out. If not I'm hoping for a contract at the theater where I'm bartending so I'll at least have something to tide me over. Yeah, philosophy! My thesis is about whether it'd be better if we were to choose our family members based on desired qualities, rather than automatically living with your biological family. It's based on the 'chosen family' concept which appears in many queer communities. I should be done in about six weeks!

Hey Rhae and Buck! Thought I'd drop by and check in for a bit. Hope you're both doing good! I'm well myself, on the verge of finishing my thesis and some pretty cool plans for next year are taking shape.

Happy new year!

Yeah, we've had to cancel or postpone a lot of things, so I hardly have any shifts atm. Fortunately I'm still a student and not completely dependent on that income. I'm on the other side of the screen/classroom, but yeah, I always feel bad for the teachers.

None of us got the virus too, fortunately. I'm a bartender at a theater, and I'm dabbling into helping to organize events there now as well. It's just a side job but loads of fun. Does hybrid mean half online, half in real life? I hope it gets less stressful soon.

Hi Overall I'm really good, just coming out of a few days of quarantine because a roommate tested positive. But I'm having a lot of fun with my friends and roommates, work has been great, and I'm getting ready to start writing my thesis. I'm even dating someone and while it's still in an early stage I'm starting to feel some butterflies. So overall, pretty awesome. One anoying thing is that I found out I'm severely allergic to gluten, which I've been eating and drinking every day for forever. But I'm on the diet now and it's supposed to make me feel less tired all the time, though I'm not noticing any changes yet. How have the two of you been? I haven't been keeping up on the thread.

Ooh, I'm not liking the new forum update, I miss the old red. But hey everyone!

After spending so much time indoors the past year I'm now waving hello to you guys from France! And heading to Stockholm as well on Sunday, so I'm living the life of luxury here. Hope everyone's well.

Yeah so I've heard! I'm gonna do Noveria tonight. And yeah from what I remember of Horizon that mission scared the crap out of me lol, the Collectors creeped me out.

I'm playing the remaster as well! It's been about five years since I played the originals and I am absolutely loving it, about halfway through the first one now. I've never played most of the DLCs so I'm very excited for those.

Thanks We're all in the clear now.

Hope everyone is doing well! I'm in quarantine since my roommate tested positive, but hopefully I'll be allowed out tomorrow. For now I'm inside drinking wine and catching up on Attack on Titan and Drag Race. Good for you, I hope it stays that way! (Though giving in yo your negative feelings is a very Sith thing to do, but let's try to avoid it this time). Sweet of you, hope you're hanging in there as well!
