Sitting in a skype chat with some online friends

I'm interested. :3 I'd love to give it a read.

Subject #14: Legal drinking age. From my understanding, Americans can't drink till they're 21. X3 Here in Australia, it's 18. 16 with parent consent I believe. A few main issues with alcohol is the effects, how it can be abused, what it does to physically under-aged people (people who have brains that cannot cope with it all), the addiction, and a lot of other things. Really, no matter how old you are, people are STILL going to drink, whether you like it or not. X3 Like, I'm fine with the restrictions being on whatever age. Fact is, I get to school and see 13 year olds with alcohol in their lockers. It really won't make a darned difference. I see 19 year olds who are legally allowed to drink and buy stuff like that, but... choose to be idiots about it and crash their car whilst driving drunk. If rebellion wasn't a thing that existed though, I say 21 is a fair number. Because I swear, there are really stupid 19 year olds out there. XD Like, wow. You hear stories about some guy driving their friends around, next minute, all of them are dead. It's really, REALLY sad. And unfortunately it's just an effect of alcohol. Now, I don't know HOW it feels to drink that stuff. X3 I accidentally tried it once though. And it didn't feel too good. XD I asked my parent if the cup of clear liquid was water or some weird other drink. They were too busy to answer. So I gulped a huge mouthful of it down. And it was disgusting. I couldn't swallow it. X3 I spat it out, and the taste was still there!! I brushed my tongue with toothpaste and a toothbrush for 2 whole minutes. XD I don't know how you guys can do it. I'm not an alcohol fan, may never be! I don't mind others drinking, as long as they're not being stupid about it. ------ Semi-important update: I am going to edit the first post of this thread, adding a sort of contents page. :3 If somebody wants to refer back to a past subject, they can! As long as they say something like; "In regards to: subject #10 - ..." That way if somebody misses out, they can easily just continue talking about it, and it'll keep everything all nice and organised!

I have been dreaming a LOT lately. X3 And instead of describing the weird robot thing I dreamt about, I drew it. http://i.imgur.com/0xhGPmWh.jpg No face, just two planks of wood. A chainsaw in one hand, and a chisel in the other. The chisel was like... his painting brush. o.O It was kinda weird. He was basically an agile freak that had a really scary ominous computer sounding voice. It wasn't dark... it was kinda cheery actually. But sinister. Basically, crazy and insane. That threatened to kill me repeatedly. But whenever he caught me, he wouldn't actually do anything to harm me? It was like... a cat playing with a mouse. X3

Thank you, to all three of you. I'm glad you guys care. Eh. It's just something I'll have to get over with. X3 I'm pretty good at being a happy person. So I'll just stick to being a happy person! No need for life to get you down. Happiness is right around the corner! :3 ^ My motivational speech of the day I guess. XD I find listening to Ross' Ross's rants on random subjects quite entertaining and distracting. Currently feeling: Relaxed. Tired. But that's why I'm going to bed now!

I've never really cared for 3D movies that often. Mainly because it's really uncomfortable for me to watch. I either... 1. wear the 3D glasses, see the 3D but have it all blurry. 2. Don't wear the glasses and go half-blind because of the screen. Or... 3. wear both and be annoyed by how uncomfortable it weighs my face down. XD So... 3D movies, I've only watched once or twice. However... 3D video games? Now, THAT is where it's at. I've used an Oculus Rift before, and oh damn, it was UNREAL. It really was like stepping into another universe, like... stepping into a dream. And it was the most amazing 3D thing I've ever experienced in my life. Combine the Oculus rift and a sandbox game, and you will feel like God himself. The only problem is... I get car sick... so I can only really play 20 minutes at a time before I start feeling woozy (with the oculus on). But when I was playing Team Fortress 2 with the Oculus Rift, despite being sick, I kept playing. The side effects were worth it. Even if the graphics are absolute sh*t, the 3D makes it seem so real. And it REALLY messes with your head. The test map/game that the Oculus Rift came with was very dodgy looking. But I was too busy smiling(and vomiting) to care about the graphics, it went way over my head. You could see it on the laptop monitor and be like; "Oh, yeah. Wow. This looks straight from 90's." Then the Oculus Rift on: "What the sh*t is happening to my brain right now." Wearing an Oculus Rift or similar device is an experience I think EVERYONE should have at least once in their lifetime. I guess it also helps that I've spent most of my life in a blurred state without glasses. I have terrible eye sight, and glasses basically save my life. So wearing the Oculus Rift was freaking magical. Not wearing glasses, but still seeing things far away. Like... that was life changing. It was like having the eyesight of a 5 year old. Young again! Also, it feels like I'm promoting the Oculus Rift in some way. XD I'm so sorry. I actually don't know of any other similar device or company. Ross, you NEED to try it.

I finally got around to watching this. Finally. And I'd have to say Ross, you've struck me with FEAR. XD Cause one day... I'm going to want to play Guild Wars for that sense of nostalgia, to find it just doesn't work. A game that runs SOLELY on the internet. However, Guild Wars isn't owned by EA so that's a big plus. Buuut... Guild Wars 2 is a thing and has been out for some time now. I'm just waiting for the day where the devs go; "Okay! You've had your fun. Everyone migrate to Guild Wars 2, you nostalgic freaks." Just how the awful economy works I guess. Thankfully I don't play enough games of EA to find myself in any trouble. I do play The Sims 3 quite frequently, but HA, sucked in EA, it's pure single-player and you don't need an internet connection to play it. Half of me wants EA to just make a Multiplayer Sims game that WORKS. But the other half says; "That's a bad idea." because I know it's going to be a really bad game now that it's made by a new team.

A personal depressive sort of vent on my current status. To put it short: Could be better.

The funny thing is, not even Facebook is safe from Tumblr. XD There's a 'Best of Tumblr' page, kinda weird IMO. It had to apologize because one of its admins posted some feminist bullsh*t that was sexist towards men. X3 NOT EVEN FACEBOOK IS SAFE. Tumblr is everywhere, man. Be afraid. XD It's so retarded. Currently: Having flashbacks to all the crap my friends have done or said to me. And then I start asking myself questions; Maybe they have every right to say all that? Perhaps it's normal and I'm just taking it wrong. Maybe I shouldn't be such an overemotional snot. But then a day later I'm crying all over again so. XD I'm not sure.

Aw. X3 Seattleite. I don't see anything wrong from having a mentally ill girlfriend. I think it's quite sweet. ^_^ And I'm proud of you for sticking up to that. My boyfriend is kind of rich and I fear that people believe I'm a gold digger. :I I mean... If he's gonna send me a surprise $2,000 laptop, I'm sorry, I can't exactly say no. XD Especially since he shipped it over already and that cost like... $100 alone. But I'm not here to rob him. And I hate how some people may think that. So... I can semi-relate to your little explanation thingy here. I have a mentally ill friend. She acts like a normal human being. The only issues I see is that she can't sleep. But... I don't like her. And I don't want people going; "Oh, you just hate her because she's mentally ill." X3 No... I dislike her because she's s rude snotbag to me. There are mentally ill people who can take care of themselves. Even when they have so many, they can still take up a normal conversation. They're not retards. Anyway, going more and more off topic. Just wanted to let you know that you ARE respected and no-one has the rights to go slamming down on your parade. I'm sorry others have given you grief over it though. :S I understand.

God

Uh, 5 days in between my two posts. This should be... okay... https://drive.google.com/file/d/0BzAV8CDkuPvbamkydVBYTFZiOEU/view?usp=sharing I made a new song! It's not actually piano this time. It's a kind of... techno computer sounding song. ^_^ I really like it. It's kinda jumpy... but relaxing at the same time. It's great to write to. I love writing when listening to my own music. X3 The music I compose usually relates to the plot of the stories I create, so it's great when I need to make some mental-visualization of the character and their surroundings. XD Damn. I'm too darn creative. Writing stories, 3D modelling, digital drawing, music composing, WHERE DOES IT END!?

I'm feeling pretty damn good. One of the better shifts at work. Makes me feel very proud and good afterwards. I was working in the drive-thru section with two other coworkers of mine. We're making a box meal and notice that there needs to be a burger made. X3 Ian, my favourite manager, comes along and goes; "Do any of you girls know how to make a burger?" XD We just kinda shake our heads in shame. (I know how to make a burger, but restaurants are strict on how they make food. There's also certain packaging and where everything is.) Anyway, Ian provides a quick 1 minute demonstration on how to make a burger! I watch carefully, so do the others. Then he gives us the burger and we hand it out. 2 minutes later... another box meal with a burger. I like... put on my freaking game face. XD I'm like; "Oh I'm ready. I am so ready." as I put on my glove and set up all the packaging for this burger. I make it quite easily, wrapping it up neatly and passing it out. During this whole thing, my coworkers go; "...are you going to be alright?" "Do you need help?" "Can you do it?" And I just slyly smile and go; "Yeah, I got this." A minute later, dear gosh, what comes up on the screen? A burger box. 4 burgers in a box. I just laugh and go; "Oh yeah, NOW It's time to put myself to the test!" As I'm making these 4 burgers as quick as possible, the worker who was supposed to be making the burgers (She got busy) came along, a little stunned by seeing me... someone who had never even set a finger on this burger making bench asks; "Uh. You want me to do it?" "Nah, I got this." I smile. Then freaking Ian comes along and he's just smiling at me as he goes; "Hah, already doing it?" "I'm making a burger box." I nod with once again a sly grin. "Haha, good job! Keep it up." He praises me and walks off to do his manager duties. X3 I just love it when I'm able to impress my managers. Makes me feel so good. So yeah, for 20 minutes, there was strangely nothing but burgers being requested, no wraps, so I was able to make every single order! I felt so proud of myself. But yeah, this shift, definitely a winner.

The DeviantArt questionnaire has been flying around on DeviantArt lately. I decide to take part.

My vent: Geez. My parents are a freaking mess. They've been together for 13 years, and my mum keeps threatening to break up. :I She has no idea how it might affect me. If she leaves, I either go with her, or stay with my dad. My dad is a lazy shit, so I know I'll be doing 98% of the house work. If I go with Mum, there goes my sweet ass internet and my quick access to work. I'm freaking fine with both of them here, why does mum think it's fine to just suddenly say; "I'm going to break up with your dad." Like, holy fuck. Thanks?? Either way, I'm screwed to no relief. :I Goodbye happy life. I'll see you in 2 years I guess when I'm done with school. If I even make it that far. Without work, I'm foodless. Without internet, I'm friendless. I'm going to suuffeeerrr... Can't she just wait for me to finish Grade 12?? Holy hell. I just wish my parents would acknowledge my existence respectively and respectfully. Hopefully mum doesn't actually go through with it... If she does, I'll probably stay with Dad. He's jobless, been trying to find a job in the state with the highest unemployment rate, fuck the system, and mum thinks she has the right to complain. I hate both of them, GAH! I have a life too!! They tell me to gain weight, as if it will magically make me gain 5kg's. I'm like... Alive... Because I have a job. I don't need the stress of suddenly divorced parents. GRAGHH... *punches wall* Rant over.

Puh-leeze, those hips bring DISASTER. /\ Imagine in sassy blonde girl voice. PENCL

Analysis? X3 Man, I'd love to be an actual dream analyzer. Although, I'm not sure if dreams have actually any effect (or vice versa) on people's personalities, or life story. Would be interesting to test! I'd try analyzing, but I'd probably just offend 500+ people. So I better not. A recent dream I had: I was in a big city, with huge walls surrounding it. I was with my friend, a talking dog. X3 Strange... but okay. We walk around, I drive him around, then we end up getting lost near the perimeter of the city. There, in an alley, we find a hole, out into the open expanse. We see nothing but snow for miles and miles. The horizon is completely flat. We wonder, "Where's the sea?" As the city was supposedly built on an island. As we curiously venture out, we find that the thin snow is actually covering a floor of ice. It shatters and breaks from under our feet and we splash into the icy cold water. But... the water of this sea looks... pure white. Like, milk. XD Doesn't taste like milk though. It's horrible stuff. Anyway, can't even see half a foot in the water, and for minutes it's struggling and swimming, trying to save our own skins. But eventually, the exhaustion hits in and I end up drowning. X3 And then I woke up, 30 minutes before my set alarm. It wasn't even a nightmare, but it was still scary as all hell.

Soo... how's life been, guys? :3 Pretty swell? I hope so. (Happy Belated Birthday Username!)

*half a month late* I'm active, I swear. >.> Subject #13: If you had kids, would you support physical touch to be included in the process of teaching kids wrong and right? X3 Or to put it shortly, spanking, abuse, etc. And even if you didn't have kids, would you support others doing it? Personally, I hate the idea of it. I'm 16 and I'm still getting slapped. X3 I'm not a bad kid!! I promise! I think... if you're going to be a parent, learn how to teach your kids right and wrong by punishment and encouraging words. Compared to being slapped, I don't mind having 'timeout' in my bedroom. XD Although, that never happens anymore because I like... live... in my bedroom. But it was still annoying. X3 And it did give me the message of; 'don't do that'. I guess my personal experiences heavily influence my opinion on this, so it's probably not all that neutral of a view. Would be nice to get other views and opinions though. X3 See what I'm missing out on. And sorry if I say 'abuse' a lot. That's the word I naturally come to. ^_^" Sorry! I mean... geez... physical touch freaking hurts. XD I don't want that. No thanks. Nope. The problem though with views and opinions on parents, you only have two. Well... sometimes 3... or 4... but you mainly live with either one or two. And that means you can get a totally different view to others. So this should be interesting... Summary: Do you condone the act of physical touch to enforce good practice for children?

Feeling goooood. Just finished making another song, been snacking on food. I want to feel motivated though... X3 I swear I felt motivated 2 hours ago. Where did it go? Did making a song suck up all my motivation juice? XD Whatever the case, my story has reached 85% of its word goal which I'm pretty happy about, seeing as it's 3/5 way through the planned plot. The stats are looking good! 69 full A4 pages, 12 chapters, 34,000+ words written. And it's taken me 3 months to get to this point. X3 Which includes me being a lazy shit. XD So yeah, feeling pretty good. Just 6,000 more words and it'll be officially a novella!

Vapymid last visited 3 months ago... *bows head, takes hat off* Today, we mourn the loss of a good soldier. X3 Someone play that sad trumpet song. I don't know how to play a trumpet. We will always remember his 'regards'... in our hearts. @Rarity: Talking about having fun... when you're playing TF2 as red team, get auto-balanced to blu just as red win. :I Like, yeah... good job guys... wooooh...

X3 I'm probably worse at emotional support. But I can try. *grasps AP's shoulder* Look at me. You are a god-damn beautiful specimen of a human creature. You deserve all the goodness, no matter what you do or where you are. You think you're useless at times, but trust me, you have helped someone before. Numerous times. Different people. Even if it feels like everything is against you, believe me, you are worth everything good. You are a very kind individual, and one of the most peaceful users of the forum. You're admired for that. It's true dammit. You can't tell me otherwise!!

Ah. That's good! :3 Currently freaking out with a few friends over Google image pictures of degloved feet and hands. XD Geez. They're so gross. I'm like... Scared of wearing rings now. Eesh. I'm not like... Sensitive to that stuff, but it still creeps me out. X3 Blood and flesh and nails, ewww... Nightmare fuel. XD

*holds Rarity's shoulder* It gets annoying. Real quick. XD Ugh... The memories. It's cool, but then it gets just... Aggravating... And no amount of slapping self's face will do anything about it. Good luck with that though. :3 Currently realising there's no need to be waiting for something. Cause it ain't coming any time soon. X3 And also sitting down in the common room.

https://drive.google.com/file/d/0BzAV8CDkuPvbeGVoZTFFNm9zdGM/view?usp=sharing There we go. X3 Singing! Please don't say how I could improve. XD I don't plan on making a big deal out of my singing, I'd rather stay casual with it all. :3 I just sing to show off lyrics. Most of the time...
