i JUST remember that song growing up I remember some tv show like carebears or teddy ruxbin (how ever thats is spelt and what ever bear show it was) doing an episode on it.

Was Quiet alive in 1902?

No, Quiet just gets miffed when people talk about things Quiet knows as being "old" :p.

Quiet decreed in university that no person younger than her shall call themselves "old" until Quiet says so first!

I will talk about something new then. . .

I'm quite "young" thank you, I did not refer to myself as "old" at all XD

I've been out of university for several years here too :p

i have never been to university!

I'm thinking about going back for another degree. It's scary out here in the real world!

What would you go back for if you were to go back?

Thinking sociology, since the social sciences make up the bulk of my coursework outside of English. Social Work is a possibility too, if I get off my ass and get some appropriate work or volunteer experience.

You need to volunteer before before going into the kinda course you want to take?

It's more that volunteer or payed experience in the social services are really boosts your application (you need three references to apply to Social Work programs where I am). If you alreadyt have a BA, which I do have, you can enter into Social Work at the master's level but you need at least two years of pratical experience no matter what sort of BA you have.

If I decide to go for sociology, then I can probably get another BA in two years or so instead of four, since I have a lot of credits already from my first degree.

Wow that sounds like a lot. I have never heard of needing experience to get into school before.

o.o

Do I really deserve to be on your honored guest list? But I'm honored to be put there :3

I am not on the honored guests list :(

I suppose I could do that.

Questing is going slow at the moment, but I'm not putting a lot of effort into it right now. :p.

Requirements for post secondary schools vary a lot, especially depending on what you want to do. For my english program all I had to do was hand them my transcript and say "let me in" in a reasonably polite fasion. Other schools like commerce or social work or library science etc. will have different requirements. Those requirements will also vary university to university, country to country, etc. It can require some reading and legwork to get all you need.

well i hope you can get everything you need.

Haven't been here in a while. May as well say something. I got a call back for a job interview today! Yay! It's a temporary spot, just retail for halloweeen at a party supply store but that all I'm really after at the moment. Hooray for money!

Hooray for money! I'm still looking for work, no calls yet for whatever reason, even though I've put in a LOT of apps...

Yeah. I think the fact that I put "can work weekends and evenings" probably helped me, though it too a week or so for a call back so I guess they were going through other applicants. There's another clothing store hiring that I saw yesterday. Might apply there too since I've worked in clothing retail before. Not that I'd like to do so again but I'm not going to be picky right now.

I wish I could be less picky. Stupid legs D: But the person helping me is confident I'll find something.

I hope you get the job! *Sprinkles Quiet with pixie dust* think happy thoughts!

Will do! Or at least, not so bad thoughts. Hard to be happy right now but things are better than they could be.

It's a party store actually, in general. They wanted seasonal staff for halloween and I expect they will be looking for more staff for Christmas and other winter holidays too. There's the potential to lead into a permanent job there but either way I'm happy with it. I migth go up north to visit my dad over christmas and see my new niece (one day old now!) and a temp job would be great for money in the meantime. The interview is Wednesday. Means I have time to recover from my surgery.

Anyone need some extra crytals? I have 12 and an extra Maikan's belt seeing as I didn't have enough for the matching daggers.

I hope you get some kind of job Quiet, and hopefully it will be enjoyable too :3

I donated a LOT of crystals away already...so no. Unless Luna didn't get all the crystal items I don't really need anymore.

I bought another pirate set. I want to use it but I like mu current avy too much. :)

I bought three pirates right off before I realized I couldn't quite use all the poses very effectively XD

I liked too many items in the set. I wanted to be able to use a hat, shirt, and boots, at the same time. Then I remembered the cutlass. :)

I like them too XD I just can't figure out how to use them well right now <.<;

yeah i haven't figured out how use them either

Pirate would be the most obvious choice ;). Though you could mix it with the water set and make a sea-sprite of sort, or something along the lines of Pirates of the Caribbean. I love the boots but they didn't match my current avy well.

I can never pull off something on my feet well because...I like my pawed feet :p

yeah those paw feet are hard.

There's some stuff that works with them, but I like to see them...

they are cute!

Right. :). I like the design of the pirate boots though I wish they came in a solid brown or black as well. The red flaps stood out a little heavily on this avatar when I tried them.

Maybe I should come up with a new cosplay. I havne't been putting mych effort into getting my current guy done. Was going to opt for Trance Kuja after playing Kuja for the cosplay contest. Maybw I should update Cor. Got better looking wings now.

pirate boots are always fun but yeah solids would be nice more colours on something the harder it is so work into an avi

I want to build my beastie avatar again at some point, the one Samuel drew the pick of at the start of this thread. I have my avies saved on my computer. I could put up a closet of the ones I really like.

I have been lazy with my closet lately I haven't been saving any of the ones I like.

I have several saved but I never actually made a closet. I wonder if I should..?

Quiet, you totally should. I loved that one a lot xD
