Oh but there's the account search for that :D Ohh that's good! No stress is good -nods-

Meanwhile, I'm staying up reaaaally late to work on the paper that I have put off until now D: Curse my bad procrastination habits -sigh-

Yeah, but if you want a list of items you don't have sorted by user price, it's the best method imo! Indeed :D Although no stress can mean I've not revised enough and I'm going to fail miserably XD

Aw :( Well I hope you manage to be productive in that time!

Ohhh I see, I see. I didn't know it had that feature! Grr, speaking of which, I tried to grab the collectible pete plushie...it was selling for 190k when I saw it, and I was like SWEET I can get the achievement. Little did I know, when I clicked to buy, there was an error I was so frustrated!!! Did you manage to buy one?

I'm sure you're going to do fine! Don't worry about it :D

I think I'm being pretty productive, yeah. I think I'll finish in an hour! I'm 3/4 of the way done! So sleepy though...and it's making my leg situation worse. My leg was actually problem-free for a week or so...and the sleep deprivation has made it worse.

Sorry for the long rant D:

Yep, my coworkers are just about the only thing I'll truly miss. And working from home - that won't be an option any longer. And having a work-issued laptop. I'll also miss certain aspects of the job - but I'm doing the same job, just somewhere else :) So I suppose there's actually a lot I'll miss! But it was definitely time for me to move on, despite everything!

No big celebration yet - aside from a little chair dance. I'm waiting until my last days at this job - I took a few off between ending and starting my new job, to get ready, do some errands, and shop for some new work clothes, etc. It also doesn't really seem real yet! I'm still here, still doing the same thing. I have a feeling my last day will be an eyeopener.

Yay, another limit raise! Honestly, I don't see why they couldn't have just started here - has testing really proven anything about being able to handle more? But yay nonetheless; we're finally starting to get somewhere approaching reasonable. I'm leaving my holiday gallery in my old shop until they put in categories :/ If I just moved everything, I'd have no each what holiday went with what item.

I only made it to 10k unique when I did the general hoard. I'm kind of glad to be shed ever having to work on the unique achievement though :P

I've noticed that Cinthia has been a lot better lately, too. She used to be terrible, even on weekend quests. Did you see the thread last week when she was announced as weekend quest? Dot pointed it out to me, and it was pretty hilarious: start at the bottom, haha.

Eep, it's coming up fast! No wonder you've been busy.

I'm sure you'll find your summer internship teaches you a lot! Internships can be really great if they're for a good employer. How does that differ from a post-grad internship, though? And why would you go back for that after finding a job/some experience?

Nope :( Oh you almost managed to restock it? :o That's almost pretty awesome XD I hope you get it next time!

Yeah, it's so so so so useful. I think everyone uses SL for collections!

Honey that is a short rant :* And this is the perfect place to rant so go ahead! Sorry your leg is being annoying again :( Hopefully you can get plenty of sleep when your paper is in and it'll get better again!

Oooooo. You have to buy a new laptop in a hurry then? That's a bit annoying. What day do you finish?

Yeah. I guess they had good reasons. But to be honest, if they'd started with this, people would also have panicked I think? The new shops seem to be working quite well on the whole, even though there are quite a few small annoying things about them (which are slowly being fixed mostly).

I think if they added a way to keep the categories, a lot of people would be happy XD Omg I know! It was such a pain of an achievement XD

I did XD It was amazing! I'm not quite wanting to throw her in a volcano now!

I passed my german test with 85% woop :D

Thanks! I'm actually excited about not having my whole life planned out right now. I could go live anywhere! And congrats on passing your german test! I've always hated exams.

I have to have a license to be a registered dietitian! The post grad internship is a dietetic internship and once completed allows me to sit for my examination that will give me my license. The one I'm doing this summer is a capstone experience for my undergraduate education.

morning everyone!

XD Yes, it can be a bit daunting can't it? If you could go live anywhere else, where would you go? :D (theoretically lol)

Thanks :* It wasn't so bad. It's mostly multiple choice questions and I've done quite a few of these language ones before. But still, I'm glad I passed :D

How are you today?

Oh wow. I didn't realise you couldn't actually work if you didn't do that internship!

My last day is April 27th! And yep, I'll have to get a new laptop then. I was thinking of to go to the Apple store to get one in the days I have off between jobs, but I may order one online so that I don't have any days with no computer! I haven't decided yet.

I think it's a lot less panic-worthy to hear 750 max than 250! That was what really got me - that's literally a day's worth of quest items. The low, low non-GA limit. I'm sure there are still lots of people who would be upset, but it doesn't seem quite as insane, at least! Overall I do like the new shops - they look a lot cleaner, seem fast - hard to really know if it's speeding up the site in general, but the autoprice is WAY faster for sure.

Yeah, transferring categories is a huge pain :/ Tbh, I'm surprised they made an autotransfer option. It's only been how many years and they never added a remove all option before! That's one thing that's for sure nice about the new shops!

Congrats on the passed test! You can speak 3 languages now :) (Or is it more than that? Hehe.)

Ah, so you need it to become licensed? That makes sense. Hopefully you're able to find something! It's hard for young people to get the 'experience' they to finish/make use of their education. The same thing happened to me, minus needing it for a license. 'Experience' is like a magical unicorn for new grads :/

Hey there :) How have you been?

Evening guys. Not many people around at this time usually, but I've been so busy with work and finishing up everything before I leave, this is when I have free time, boo :/ How's everyone been?

Ah, I'm glad! i'm home alone so i'm scanning a bunch of old photos, and there are the most adorable photos of my sister and I when we were little and with our parents XD /cuteness attack

How are you doing?

Mh, I like to be able to see what I'm buying personally. But they're all quite similar anyways XD /not a fan of apple lol I'm looking into a new laptop too for next year :D

Is it really? That's good. I think I'll get a week's GA during vesnali. Since you have to refresh a lot to get flowers people will be doing their quests and stuff. I've reached my limit in my new shop and I didn't even move that many things from my hoarding gallery XD

Yeah, it was kind of ridiculous that they waited so long. It's so practical too! I wish they had a 'check all' for the category system in the galleries though.

It's 4 XD French English Spanish and german.

All my saved outfits are brooookeeeeeen and it's annnnoyiiiiing :(

Morning!

I'm an Apple devotee when it comes to my laptop, which is kind of funny, because I'm an Android person when it comes to my phone. I'd have a hard time switching from either, I think. I just like the Mac operating system better, and am so used to it by this point (had them since beginning uni)! I'm probably going to have a PC desktop at my new job, though, so that'll be an adjustment! I've bought all my laptops online, because you can choose all the specs and options easily, but they still look pretty much the same. Actually I buy pretty much anything online including clothes and shoes, which a lot of people really hate doing :P I'm an online shopper for sure.

Makes sense, Vesnali is probably a good time for a GA. Shop sales have seemed pretty slow these last few months. I used to make 5-6m a day when I had autoprice, now I make 2-3m usually. I can only imagine how annoying it will be to get rid of a hoard that size, it'll just be a little at a time with these shops :/ They really should have given people more warning so they could try to get rid of as much as possible before. Though... the site DOES seem faster, so maybe that's what they really cared about most.

That's amazing. I wish I could speak 2! It's such a valuable life skill and awesome for travel.

Aww, did you submit a bug report about it? I never use saved outfits, so I don't know if it's a widespread thing. Speaking of outfits, I love that skirt you were wearing (black and a little frilly at the bottom?) I think it's lagging showing your new av, because there's new items on your profile. What item is it?

Well, I would probably still live in the US. But I think it would be so cool to have a job that took me over seas for a year or two! I'm good, just tired. The usual lol. I went on a run this morning and I can't breathe now. Maybe I'm developing allergies after all! I'm so sniffy and sneezing now, ugh.

Yeah I just look at it as 'continuing education.' It's the same concept as a doctor having to get their license (except much shorter of a time period). We just don't get as much acknowledgment in health care world!

When does Vesnali usually start?

Oh I'm just so happy for you! oUo And you need a big celebration in those days between jobs. nodnod or at least a little get together. Treat yourself with ice cream. Something! Any ideas?

Oh I know clutter can be hard to get rid of I'm just so afraid of becoming my folks that I am purging my stuff every month or so ^-^;; It's simplified things XDD How have you been?

I know we were talking and I have to admit I've lost track of what we were speaking about! D: Um how are you?

I haven't spoken to you in FAR too long D: How's life?

Well, I've never gotten an apple because my dad detests them and refused to get me one, so I don't even know what to do with one when I'm confronted with one XD Androids rock though ^^ Won't it be complicated transferring documents and such? :o Yeah, I guess it's a habit after a while.

other than a couple errors the day the shops went public I haven't gotten any trouble. Some slowness, but no errors that I can remember. Wait, I had one this morning. ONE. That's it. Yeah :/ Still hoping that the limits get raised to something reasonable before vesnali starts. True. Maybe people are just less active?

I'm just so so so so grateful that I'm fluent in English. I love French and spanish and all, but watching and reading stuff in english is pretty much my life XD Reading game of thrones in French would be such a tragedy lol

Nope, but I assume it's linked to HAs not updating on the forums D: i'll check the boards, see if people are complaining about it.

Thank you <3 It's the . There's a white version too, which someone was selling cheap on the forums if you're interested.

Lol, my HA updated as I posted this.

Yeah, I'm sure it would be a good experience! I loved living in spain for a year. If it's pollen season, even people that aren't usually allergic can have problems :o I've been too busy for running. I SHALL go tomorrrow though!

Mh, end of april normally. Should be coming up pretty soon :D You look so cute btw :*

Ah, I can see how that would be motivating! How are they doing? Any better with the clutter?

I'm good :D Passed my german test! My kitchen is destroyed but I'm still alive. And atm I'm scanning some of our old photos and darn was I a cute kid XD

Um well they're the same and unlikely to change. They make temporary improvements but the underlying problem is pretty strong >-<;; Troublesome. Ah well. I'm glad you're doing well! Congrats on doing so well on your test ^-^ Heheh it must have been pretty... noisy when they destroyed your kitchen. XP Awwww yay for being a cute kid! I had a few cute moments myself XDD Isn't going through photos like that fun?! I'm doing better ^-^ I've gotten some sleep recently and just put together a new playlist I think will grow to a good one :P Still procrastinating on responsible things since my best friend is here and she's moving out of state in 10 days D: I've been trying to spend lots of time with her (trying to claim her for a week) XDD

I'm so sorry I am just now saying hi again. Your awesome introduction coincided with a couple of really rough weeks for me and your ping got lost in the shuffle. I hope everything has been ok with you <3

It's okay~ ^^ I wound up getting pretty wrapped up in other things too, namely trying to figure out what's going on with this commission/potential job thing. I knew I was forgetting something, haha. Turns out it was this thread; I guess I'll be joining the ping group after all.

Anyway, I'm a little dissatisfied with things lately, but other then that I've been pretty alright. I'd ask about you, but you just said you had a couple of rough weeks. I hope they weren't too bad on you.

Fair point. Thanks <3 Actually, surprisingly, it really wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. The noisy part was making a hole in the wall for the window and I was away for that.

Aha, I'm sure we all do! It isssssss. Scanning them is very boring though XD

Ah, taht's good. What kind of music are you into? I'm sorry she's moving away :( My best friend lives in London. It's such a pain D:

Yeah, I was talking to someone about a possible web development internship - the coding side - and when I said something about enjoying the design side too he decided to ask me to draw up a new page for him. If he likes it I get paid and possibly get a job, if he doesn't I only get the understanding that I tried.

There are various circumstances around it, and I do have my own opinions on the subject, but in the end it's something.
