  What's new in your life?
  
  There aren't many threads happening around here, so there's not many chances to read about how everyone is doing. Let's talk!
  
  I've been busy with transferring to my new university to finish my undergrad (which basically entails suffering through multiple bad orientations) and house hunting. In the upcoming fall semester I'm taking all online classes, focusing on tutoring work, and going to be starting my internship with a local museum through my school for credit hours.
  
  I also just recovered from an infection that has had me out of commission the past two weeks. So, I feel great now that I'm starting to feel back to sort of normal!
  
  I now have two black cats too~ My gerbil passed away a few days ago though. :(

  I got my business license and am currently waiting for products to arrive so I can sell them and make more money.
  I still haven't been able to convince anyone in my family to lend me 5 minutes of their time to try and get my car fixed so I'm still totally stranded in the middle of nowhere. Maybe money will help convince someone.
  
  I haven't won the lottery yet.
  
  I switched from bottles of pop to cans of pop so I can melt down the aluminum.
  
  I had porkchops for dinner.
  
  ....Yeah, your life sounds more exciting than mine.

  My life mostly entails school haha.
  
  What are you melting the aluminum down for?
  
  I also remember you mentioning your interest in starting a business a long time ago. Hopefully it goes well for you!

  School can be fun! :D
  
  I haven't decided yet. For right now I'm just going to make it into ingots for when I decide what to do with it.
  
  I hope so too! I mean, I don't have any confidence that it will go well, but I can hope. Lol.

  not at all, the university that i paid 500 dollars in non refundable fees decided to completely fuck me over and they may try to revoke my admission, but the admissions office isnt open til tomorrow so i can't talk to them&i've just been annoyed all weekend
  
  i quit mabi over a year ago, i've been trying to sell my acc but it gets more and more worthless as the free RBs go on. only games i play are FFXIV and league occasionally but asides from that i just sit home and take care of my bedridden grandpa
  
  BUT I GOT THIS QT PIE A COUPLE WEEKS AGO SOOOO life is good

  Hiii!
  
  Been pretty good here in NYC. Boyfriend and I are doing pretty good, and we're gonna hit 3 years in September. :)
  
  Work is good! Got a raise recently. But I'm setting my sights on going back to school and finally finishing. One step at a time!

  Woo, internship in a museum? How comes?
  
  
  I'm finally entering summer holidays next week, so I can go back home for a few weeks. Gonna use some of the time to make some money in a little job, cleaning at a hospital or the public swimming pool or something. I finally need to get a laptop for school and work. Already decided the model to be, a Thinkpad L450 with an IPS panel and a 128GB SSD.
  If it didn't have that idiotic numpad, it might've become an E550. But noooo, people who need a numpad with their laptop can of course not just buy an extra numpad.
  If they ever stop making laptops with normal keyboards 'm out of the market as fast as I got into it. By then I would probably be rich enough to just buy a Surface and connect it with a 60% or 75% anyway, lol.
  
  Otherwise nothing much is happening.

  You could make anthill art out of it. Maybe they'd sell too.

  You know I have actually never seen a single anthill anywhere on our property. I don't know if the ground isn't right for them or what.

  Not the best to be completely honest. Nearly every day is a struggle trying to get out of this dead end.
  
  Have been playing the new Terraria update and some FFXIV as a escape mechanism. Glad to hear you guys are mostly doing well though :3

  What sort of dead end are you in, if you don't mind me asking?

  Thanks to changes in Paypal's systems, I have to get myself a proper bank account. That requires getting myself an ID (I don't have a driver's licence, so that's one additional step) before I can purchase anything now. THANKS PAYPAL.
