So...how are y'all? - FireDog - 04-06-2014
Well Summer is pretty much here. How is everyone? I feel like we seldom discuss as a large community. Or maybe that's just me. Plans for thr break and such?
I'm going to have a fun and busy summer myself. Applying for an internship at a local radio station. Going to a concert. Meeting a specific member from here. College classes. Still will have plenty of time for Mesalia.
Oh and I wanted to know how people would feel about a post a picture of yourself thread. I feel many wouldn't do it because insecurities and what not.

I guess I'll start. I'm okay I guess. I got to the last 72 hours of the USMC's 13 week basic training before my hip broke. I underwent surgery on April 14th. It's healed and I am pretty much walking again without crutches now. Also just had my twentieth birthday not to long ago.
I start my papers to go home on the eleventh. I'll be out of here if all things go well mid-July. Started a back-story. (I should finish it since I was tired and made a few errors.) I'll probably role-play a bit and chill while my body recovers when I'm back home. (And for part of the time here.)
After that I'll probably start college using the Post 9/11 G.I bill and if I have to get a state job for the local jail.
As for the thread, I'm down for it.

In Australia, where the school year actually makes sense (i.e. starts at the start of the actual year, etc.), it's Winter.
Still have two more assignments, one a 2500-3000 word short story. Researched, with references to academic sources. And people complain about Mesalia standards.
Right now I'm just making myself get everything done, so I can pass and go on my mid-year break. And I think that'll be about a month. In that time, I plan on RPing, finishing those games I bought ages ago on Steam, and going out to watch movies. The Fault in Our Stars and Maleficent look promising. Maybe I'll try writing a second character, but that depends on how I feel.
My Summer plans (in November-February) involve a holiday overseas. White Christmas, double the Winter. Yeah, I don't know what I'm thinking, either.
I wouldn't mind a photo thread, but you'd have probably guessed that I wouldn't participate. I'm so beautiful your eyeballs will reduce to goop. I'm really private and all that. Though I suggest when making that kind of thread, you lay down some ground rules. Pretty sure "you're ugly" would be straight up breaking rule one, but what about "you're sexy as fuck"? I mean, if you post a picture, should you expect people to comment on your appearance?

How I am? Well, it's kind of a complicated question to answer. I'm struggling with a lot of things, and depression is constantly using me as a punching bag. I'm constantly thrown from one end of hope spectrum to another, not to mention my motivation dwindling every time I am told what I am, and what I failed to be.
I am currently applying for about 10 thousand different apprenticeships, and jobs, while trying to sort out what I want to do with my life. Nothing currently is very cheerful for me, nor fun. I don't have time for fun, or so I was told.
I'm heavily considering moving out of my parent's home as soon as I get a steady job, whatever it might be. I just can't stand being near them anymore, especially my mother.
And, in terms of the thread? I would prefer to avoid putting my picture up, because of my current depressed state. Maybe once I get a hold of things, in the future.

Guess I'm up.
Well, I'm alright for now, I'm trying to balance stressing down after nearly running into a wall with.... stress... Yeah, that's probably my life in a fucking nutshell. XD My planing didn't really sort out well at the end of school year due to a pesky project, so there's still a lot of lingering stress mixed with new stress over the summer. There's unfortunately also a sick cat to think about that might not make it past next week, that kinda clouds any joy right now.
Summer? Well, I'll be moving to my parents' tonight. Like I do every summer. I got myself a job up there all of a sudden and will be working from Monday and 6 weeks onwards, 4 days per week. Aside from that I got some remaining papers and tasks from the school year that I gotta finish in my own pace and you have no fucking idea how much shit there's to do with Mesalia (tip: I'm gonna rewrite the main Lore over summer). No vacation plans, I'm a poor student. Whatever small weekend trips I can do with my own or Kris' parents will have to do. I also plan to do some stuff I've wanted to do for ages, like writing music and learn how to properly play on my new Irish tin whistle.
Obviously, I also plan to roleplay as much as I can. I need that to keep myself sane.
The thread? Ages ago we had a thread like that, on the Enjin forum. I'd be alright with one since I not only posted there, I also got my picture on Skype.
