I can't envision any circumstances under which I'd be in a serious relationship or marriage or have children so I've pretty much set myself up to be alone until I, y'know, die.

Poor Bella... *hug*

Dun worry, I'm here for you.

[Dr. Kraus]

It be ok Bella, we are all here for ya!

[Lt. Surge]

Um, that came out wrong.  What I meant to say was I like it, it doesn't bother me or whatever.

I need to pick my words more carefully...

Haha, that's alright. ^^

I'm going to study in the School of Life this year... before I go to college I want to learn to function on my own. Like learning to drive a car without nearly passing out from terror! And living by myself and providing for myself and traveling by myself and all those things. I don't really have much in the way of financially-supportive family, and aside from my father and brother no geographically close family, and I can't envision any circumstances under which I'd be in a serious relationship or marriage or have children so I've pretty much set myself up to be alone until I, y'know, die.

Next year (?) it'll be off to university, after that... who knows. I'm trying to work on this "family honour" thing, and they have some rather grandiose wishes for me, so.....

Might I ask if you are going to college this year?

[NejinOniwa]

Offwise, and my stupid uplink has been unstable here at base as well...due to a rampant BLACKâ˜...OUT SHOOTER on the loose. I mean, twice in three days? The hell. And there's not even any storm warnings or going on or anything. Stupid asses. -_-

[stewartsage]

Same here, the storms in the area are far away from the lines AND it goes out after the storm has passed.

[Bella]

*hugs everyone* thanks guys. .____.

No, no college this year, I'm not in much a rush anyway... after I'm done with college it'll probably be even more college (grad degrees ftw) it's not like I'm trying to get out there into the job market/real world anyway, so.... yeah. <<

[Chocofreak13]

bells, you're lucky that you don't HAVE to go to college this year. it's not like i can pass up $8500 in scholarship..... ;w;
as it stands i currently have NO CLUE as to how i'm going to get to boston from here. it's not like it's a huge distance, it's just a pricey trip. >___<;;

i'm thinking a moped. sure, i'd probably have a longer route than just highway, but it's cheaper than a car, can get the same speeds (if you trick it out) and is MUCH EASIER to obtain a licence for. (3-day class and you get a moped/motorcycle licence i've heard. -w-)

aw, it's ok bella. come down and visit me. it's southern NH, which is an ENTIRE WORLD AWAY from norther NH. :3

Wow, that's a big scholarship. :O

Wouldn't it just be easier to get a friend to drive you, or take a bus or something?

Imma try to get over my fear of driving this year, because cars... scare the bejesus out of me. Admittedly, I'd rather be IN a car than outside one when it comes to travel (ie, bikes, mopeds, walking, etc).

Ironically, I'd be more likely to see you in Boston than So. NH; it's very tentative yet, but we're trying to get our photographic business established in the city, you know, parties and weddings and stuff. Which would mean that I'd be spending my weekends in Boston working with my family. Considering my lack of work-ethic (aka downright don't-give-a-damn-ness and tendency to wander away from jobs) it's likely I'll be wandering the city aimlessly one day and cross paths with you... xD

No really, we should try to hang out sometime if *crosses fingers that it's when* I'm working in Boston. ^^

[Chocofreak13]

^^ i'll have to find a nice coffee shop and drag you to it.

i'm getting $8500 a year in scholarship, $5550 a year in fed. pell grants, and a little over $1000 in loans. that still leaves me with over $8000 out of pocket. ;w; ;;;

and i've looked into this; there's no one to drive me down (the only other person i know going to boston school is living there) and the bus is $18 round trip per day. (you can pay $73 for a pass for 10 one way trips, but that won't last long.)

and don't worry bells. the thought of driving scares me too, even though i don't COMPLETELY suck at it.

DUNKIN DONUTS?! V>O<V

*haphazardly smashes calculator with hand Stephen Colbert-style*
If my calculations are correct, your tuition is... freakin' expensive. :V

[Dr. Kraus]

Anyone listen to they might be giants? great band, istanbul is a great song

[stewartsage]

Yes I do.  James K. Polk is their best song, bar none.  

Allow me to interject:

I baked ya'll a pie

.....

Five hours of Adventure Time on Cartoon Network

[Dr. Kraus]

I used James K. Polk for my History presentation, A ON EVERYTHING HELL YEA

[zjhentohlauedy]

suddenly! A WILD ZEN APPEARS!

[Bella]

ZEN-SAAAAAAAAN!!! *hugs*

The extent of my familiarity with They Might Be Giants is limited to the opening theme of Malcolm in the Middle. :\

My knowledge of Polk is limited to the Mexican-American War, that he got us the Southwest and all...

Watched a bit of Adventure Time today. I'm confused, what the HELL was that supposed to be? D:
