Pos: Some ninja keeps snow-blowing our driveway for us. We haven't seen it as it happens but it's likely our next-door neighbor as he has a snow-blower and we've told him about my mom's condition in passing.

Similar situation here, although I feel kind of guilty about it. One of our neighbours has a driveway that's partially connected to ours, so they generally shovel/snowblow the exit to our driveway, and we used to return the favour if we were doing it first. Now we pay a subcontractor to do it all for us, and he's obviously not concerned with that. Unfortunately, when it snows through a whole day, one should really go outside to touch things up, but we have no reason to...This leads to our neighbour sometimes shoveling our driveway's exit for no reason.

Pos: Went back and watched the first episode of ThunderCats (the 80s one) and now I have an urge to watch the entire series. :3

Super late edit:
Pos: Gladdened that Fal gave a thumbs up on somethin' over at FB earlier. :3

Strength can also be the ability to endure hardships.

Can't argue with that, especially with that set that makes me remember that's actually one of Attack on Titan's themes.

It was actually that specific element that kept me watching, that idea that "we will not just sit here and die quietly. If we go down at all we'll do so kicking and screaming, and possibly while taking some of you bastards with us."

I usually steer clear of shows like AoT because of the high likelihood of a "nearly every last character dies" ending, and I hate those. But I couldn't stop watching.

AoT got me hooked right away. The suspeeeeence~


Pos/Fick: Going to start saving money for our Japan trip. Even if we won't be able to put away much money right now, I want to be able to feel that I'm atleast working towards it instead of just dreaming.

Pos: Apparently Sliv looks like a wizard?

I can't stop laughing at that remark; it's so silly. xD

Pos: Oh you, Francis!

today i have learned not to make a bizarre string of inane tumblr posts at 4AM after studying all night
then again, that is usually when i write all of my papers, so no wonder i always get comments that are like "good, but your ideas lack organization / sporadically jump everywhere"

speaking of which i have a pretty tough paper to write tonight that i haven't had time to work on at all because of my previously mentioned studying

in other news i have a bag of air heads. i'm not huge on candy but the sugar will help me through the night

Sliv is a Disney actor!

Pos: Class out early by an hour, time to play some Atelier!!!

Ahahahahahahaha! He left an easter egg on his profile!

Looks like that deduction was spot on!

Pos: Very relaxing week
Neg: LR is a bit frustrating O_o I already had to use some third party to get information because you simply have no idea where things are >_>

Seems like you're having a fun time with Lightning Returns Harbiette.

Neg: I missed out on True Ending for Ayesha again, much sadness. Oh well Regina end it is!
Neg: Where's forum games? My life is empty without forum games.

The best time ever

Were people actually using it? I opted not to add it back in because of the image we had of the old boards, seemed pretty unused. We can make it again, no biggie...

It was kind of fun (*not for everyone*) when I was spamming some skits and wannabe story with pictures in threads

FF: LR is kinda fun imo, though I share your pain on the subject of not knowing where some stuff is. That costume with Heavy Hitter lv3 or whatever it is busts most encounters wide open though.

Anyway, pos: Morning coffee before heading home.
Neg: Our 2 weeks are up, Augla's plane left just over half an hour ago ;(
Fick: My off peak ticket worked on the tube during peak hours but doesn't work for the mainline train home until after 10AM. Hence my being here, posting this.

Pos: My friend is finally 100% serious about heading off to college, and I'm damn proud of him after all the bull**** that's been holding him back.

Neg: He's immediately hit a number of roadblocks just in the application process and now I'm exhausted because I was up really late last night scouring the college website helping him find all the information he needs. There are some complications that we're not sure how he should handle but he plans on calling the college sometime today to see if they can help him figure things out.

He started sounding like he was ready to give up in defeat last night and I told him to just think of it like a puzzle where he not only needs to find some missing pieces, but he also must figure out where they all fit, and I will do everything I can to help. That seems to have worked.

Pos: Always nice ta be complimented on your looks from old pictures in high school. Especially from a time when ones hair was experimented on in weird ways. >.>;

Fick: Not sure I wanna share em here though... That was a weird time...

Pos: Came across my birthday thread.
And I've got what I can only assume is a double chocolate cake waiting at home.

Pos: The local college looks romantic with its lights reflected on the water at night.

Neg: woke up to a metric f***ton of snow.

Neg: Plow took its time getting to our street so I was stuck at home all morning.

Neg: Dad was only making shoveling the driveway worse by shoveling the snowbank into a bigger snowbank that was still in the driveway while complaining that it was all he was capable of until I stopped being subtle that he should give up, go inside and let me handle it and that pissed him off enough to get through his stubborn stupidity. Having to deal with someone who has thin skin but a thick skull is just the worst.

Neg: I made myself sick overdoing it while shoveling the driveway even though I left a good chunk of what Dad did which I've now dubbed "Mount Molehill".

Fick: well today's certainly off to a great start.

Does anyone know of a good free keyboard for android devices? One that auto-spell corrects efficiently? It seems that every one i download either doesn't work or requires me to pay for it after a while.

@Lloyzerdk: Afraid not. I don't even have a smartphone. =/

Neg: Spent three hours working on two math questions. Still had to hand it in unfinished.

Pos/Fick: No reading to little kids today. I like them, but they're incredibly draining to deal with.

Pos: Knocked out a large chunk of my CompSci work.

Pos:Welcome back Silver wish you were here so I could give one of mine away no need to recompense anything given thats what I am

About the keyboard though check your pm since what I will bestow upon you not too many people know about unless they have years of ex.Was modding phones way before android came fruition

Thank you. =) May I ask what your name on the old forums was? It's been a while.

Fick: Having an urge to sleep in the computer lab tonight rather than walk home.

Big Neg: The Zero Escape series (aka 9 Hours, 9 Persons, 9 Doors and Virtue's Last Reward) is no longer receiving funding because the series didn't sell well enough in Japan. >.>

Fick: City Fall Part 2 (the latest volume in the new TMNT comic series) comes out on the same day as Symphonia.

Pos: My advisor from my undergrad is interested in continuing the research we started while I was there. I may have a chance to publish something in math sooner than I originally thought.

Your welcome and my name was ???(???,RealTrainerRed,HCSteven) given you remember if not than it may come by the way I talk.Just glad to see your still okay especially after the fall out old forum wise

Fick:From prior ones intuition is always definite when deciding something if not pursued hindsight will ensue.My form of commentary to you sleeping in the lab

Big Neg:....

Pos: Got ToSC early!
