Lurking

[Dawby]

So I still log on most days out of habit here. Sometimes I peek at the list of active users from the past 24 hours. THERE ARE MORE OF YOU OUT THERE, LURKING AND NOT LEAVING ANY MESSAGES! I totally see you. So I wanted to just say hi. Hi, everyone!

I haven't adopted anything probably in years, I'm busy with two jobs (one that I love and one that's tolerable), starting a third on Friday afternoons, and trying to get into grad school. Anyone else want to leave an update on his/her life?

Hiya Dawby been a while ^^

I been working on getting my own place and just hanging out with friends. Been dealing with a lot of guy drama bs, but i think something good finally fell on my lap for once. We will see wat happens.

But yeah been working and all that as well. I been trying to get into the adoptables again but every time I try I get distracted by real world stuff. I think once I get my own place and don't have much of anything I can sit down and just doodle up some adoptables and all that. Cuz I know I wont have internet for a long while when i do move out. But yeah been lurking around every day that I am at my computer XD just to see wat kinda stuff is going on.

i usually come lurk a few times a day. xD Nothing prolonged, though, just a quick check to see which threads are new and/or have been updated. xD;

Well, as kDawbslove knows, sera is preggers. xD;;;; Still doing Gryvern and Naa, though the response to them has been a bit discouraging. : ( Otherwise, prepping for a move next month that we can't seem to get the Navy to give us time to go find new housing for. -.-;;;; sera is very preggers and pretending to not be stressed at the same time! \o/

[Dawby]

Hee...! Stress from men and prenatal babies. I love you guys!

Lurkinating the country side Thalroooooon~

Thalron was a man... he was a DRAGON MAN. Or maybe he was just a DRAGON! *continues to sing like a dork*

Still lurking around here all the time, although school has zapped my creative energies so I haven't really wanted to do any of these adoptable type things, not to mention the overall lack of activity is rather.. depressing. (I miss you, active OMB ;_;)

Graduating high school in a couple of weeks, then I've just got to get into university, ha.. ha. I feel so young, but so old!

[Dawby]

Ugh, please. I see the big Three Oh looming over the not so distant horizon. The thought that I only have three years left in my 20s is more disturbing to me than it probably should be. I've become obsessed with skincare products that promise to preserve my youthful looks!

lol One of my friends hit 30 whilst we lived in Japan and this lady gave him a lecture on how he needed to do something huge and exciting (like sky-diving) to make it super memorable. GO SKYDIVING, kDAWBS!!!

[AirRaiser]

NOOOO you don't see me! I'm invisible! SERIOUSLY I AM!

Life update buhhhhhh.... *Drool starts to come from AR's mouth*

Well lets see nothing really interesting *Smacks laptop screen* it's trying to die. OO I can say I am now 26, moved out of my parents home for two years and I would LOVE to get back in to adoptions. The downside is I get distracted easily. And the orignals do pile up fast *eyes that huge box of old art* Maybe if I just made them 4x6 originals then sold them on furbid or something to keep the papers down. Then figured out dream book again to use it as a parents list. OYE.

But umm yea, my life is pretty dull. I attend conventions twice a year, soon to be a fur suiter. Um I'm still drawing, though it seems to have, I dunno, lessened over time.

It's 5am and I'm starting to babble, I wonder what my icon is on here? I'll have to update it.

[Dawby]

Aiya.... skydiving. I dunno about that. o.O;; The idea is appealing, but I'd probably get to the crisis moment, look down, and go, "I'm sorry; you want me to do what?!"

AR, I loooooove the image you have as your signature.

[sera]

i want to go skydiving. Ironically or not. xD;; *has a fear of heights* Maybe you an do something else deep and amazing, though. xD

*glomps AR* i still love AR artwork. *___* <3

*sing-song* ~I'm not dead--gonna bump an old thread!~

Skydiving's fun; you should try it! I hopped out of a plane in June of last year to celebrate graduating undergrad. (I did break a rib, though... It was worth it. Granted, I don't plan on doing it again any time soon.)

I also suggest trying grad school, Dawby. What type of program are you thinking of?

>.> I, uh, kinda fell off the face of the internet-earth. I'm currently in the second year of a PhD program and doing research on the Earth's atmosphere. I <3 research, even if it's taken over my life.

[Dawby]

I'm almost afraid to ask... how did you manage to break a rib while skydiving? I thought it was supposed to be moderately safe. o.O;;

I'm going back for music, since I've been working as a choir director and I love it. I want the education to be really competitive in my field, so I'm going to go to Westminster Choir College.

I like the idea of research. In practice, I get distracted.

Hi everybody!

I'm sitting in a common room... I'm an undergrad now, majoring in city planning, and I'm just sitting in our common room staring at my to-do list and wondering what inspired me to leave my fantasy book in my room because that would 'motivate me more to do my work' v.v

My self-motivational skills died like, some time last night, or maybe it was this school year, or.. something...?

So I've always known in the back of my mind that when fantasy books fail (because they're elsewhere), there's the Orchard and my old website and some healthy lurk-stalking to be done! Geocities ate my website, like so many others, but I'm really looking forward to rebuilding it. I also went through and saved Sirah's old site to the best of my ability--I am thinking of sticking it up in its preserved form, if nobody objects.

Does anybody have a request of whom I should repage first? ^.^ I love you guys! This is such a happy place.

[sera]

Aylura, i also wish to know about this rib issue. @__@;;;; lol Good luck on researching and congrats on making it to your second year in PhD! Wow!

Reptile Girl! *glomps* Have you talked to GI about your lovely Kats? xD;;; They would be my first suggestion, provided you've contacted her about them. ^^;;;; Ginsuuh is a grandfather. Twice! lol

Oooh, city planning. . . That's horribly cool. xD; You should plan defensible cities!
