Traveling is great! I can't wait to see all of the new places between here and there, as well. It's like a 12 hour drive, I think lol. Downtime is always appreciated. Turning in my last assignment today felt incredible. So I can definitely understand there. n.n Do you get weekends off?

You're driving all the way there for 12 hours? :O That sounds like quite the roadtrip! I'm sure you'll see some interesting places along the way with a drive like that.

Yep, I basically work a regular 9-5. It's a business environment, even though my agency is very, very casual.

That contest we participated in helped for tokens though :D Still using those myself ^^

I tend to not vend every day because I hate seeing my token hoard go down. It's such a nice hoard. Though I bet some people have a TON more.

I'm saving the baguettes to use them. 10% activation :o

Finally got in most of the fights I really wanted to get in :D

I see you ;) I'm good. Starting to stress about my next exams, but I'm not tooooooooo behind on schedule. Should be okay.

How are you luff :*

I have a kindle. I am like literally in love with that thing. I don't know how I used to survive through the summer without it to be honest :o Or the year. I hate not being able to brink ALL THE BOOKS with me to uni.

Yep, my dad and I are driving it! I've never flown before, so I would like to do that, but it can be pretty expensive. I like the idea of have the regular 9-5 shift with weekends off. That's just one of the benefits I'm going to enjoy about teacher life xD

I thought about getting a kindle, but I still haven't decided. I really like just holding a book in my hand and feeling it. And not having to stare at a screen. But I can definitely see where they would be handy! I like your wig! I have the white and pink version. ALL THE SPARKLES -

Ah, I want the white version, but this one was in the pawn shop so I went for it XD I might use this one more in any case.

Aha, yeah, that is definitely one advantage of being a teacher!

Everyone says that till they get one ;) I love books, believe me, but this is so practical it really wins you over. Also, it's not like reading from a computer screen. The texture is really nice and doesn't hurt the eyes.

Also; it isn't heavy. I read a lot of 1000+ page fantasy books, and they're kind of a pain to read, they don't hold open, you keep dropping them, if you're sitting in a weird position it's hard to hold them open + they get heavy after a while, and it's hard to hold them with one hand and eat with the other.

I know it sounds a bit ridiculous and lazy, but I read on my lunch breaks and it's a lot easier to balance your kindle on your lap while eating a sandwitch two handed than trying to hold your book open with one hand and your sandwitch with the other XD

The only thing I really miss about books compared to this is the smell of nice older books.

/done rambling.

Yessss, I hate it when those certain books just DO NOT want to stay open, so you have to sit there with your hands forcing them open the whole time. And really small print can suck pretty badly for my eyes. And I'm pretty much always eating something, so I need an extra hand xD

If you ever want to borrow the pink/white wig, just let me know! c:

Aw, that's sweet, thank you! I might take you up on that at some point! And back at you with this colour ^^

Ahaha. I'm glad you feel my pain ^^ The most annoying is when you want to read lying down because all other positions have been exhausted and it just does not work well XD

hugs tight You've been working hard on revising, even if you were a little behind you've covered a lot of ground I bet. :D So stress stress go away come back another day! Yay childhood rhymes made relevant XD I'm doing really well actually: I 'm walking without crutches and for more than a few steps! I'm going to try and be really careful I don't overdo but lord! It feels so fantastic to just walk 0-0

I can't see your HA D: Why can't I see your HA!?! Displeased >:[ Also yes, kindle is life. I don't know what I would do without mine o-o It's just so darn convenient! How goes the packing, by the way?

Haha you're right, she is the tall one. I'm actually just a little shorter than you and it is delightful to not have to hem pants anymore XD Maybe it's just the same as the kids who teased me about having small feet when we were young.... Yeah, now they're searching for size 10-11 shoes and I can just pick the shoe on the top and try it on XDD Thank god for size 6.5 feet!

Aw, you're going with your dad! Having another person along for the ride will certainly make it more fun. I thought you were going alone. Is your dad staying with you and your sister or heading back after? If he's leaving, it's nice of him to make the trip with you.

I definitely like having a set schedule. I just makes it easier to plan life. I know when I can go out, and when appointments and things need to be done. And of course, I can count on the break to relax and get ready for the next week :) Being a teacher is awesome to hear my teacher-friend tell it. She LOVES being done at 3:30 every day and having summers free. I can imagine that would be a pretty big perk.

Yeah, I'm so glad you suggested contests! That was a great idea, and I probably never would have considered it. We (or at least I did!) ended up getting 3k in wiz tokens, plus some CSC. And I also got 15m in wishlist items from the second one I entered. So much better than just trying to sell all the flowers! :)

I finished all my fights, too. I think. You were right about Feli, btw! I got 5+ wins on him. Thanks to that, I made it to level 20 in the BQ yesterday! I was shocked I could do it with only one skip. I'm a bit depressed I couldn't get 5 Jacques (got 3) to get another blunderbuss, but oh well.

10% seems pretty small when I look and see 1.7m per crystal! And I got a whole bunch ;) takes all the money and runs

I know what you mean about seeing your token hoard go down! I've been buying tokens, because I'm vending every day, and don't like seeing it droop. Even though technically I'm fine. On the selling boards I saw one person buying 21k tokens, and they bought all of them from one other person :O So clearly we're only low-level token hoarders.

Always so encouragin luff :* >(_)> lol, I'm not good at these, I rarely do them XD

That's great :D Definitely don't overdo it though. Don't want it to turn into a bad leg day!

Oh looooook. I found adorable puppy companions ^^ Actually, when/if you're feeling up for some creativity, let me know and I'll have a chibi request for you ^^

Look at you all graduation themed :* Is your dad driving you home? Or to your sisters?

I'm glad you found some contests that you liked :* Yeah, I did 300 flowers too. I ended up buying some because I was running out of time, but it was totally worth it.

Oh sweet! I haven't managed to get to level 20 yet. Mostly out of giving up after Slavaam beats me 5 times in a row XD Or not enough skips.

Aha, true enough. Besides I'll probs never equip them because I'll be like: "will I use this weapon enough to justify such an expensive crystal"

Woah. That is a lot of tokens for sure O_o /wants

@ All OMG you guys, I just found the perfect tribute item for my pet Kvothe :D It looks like it's straight out of the book, although the description didn't really match... Had a little OMG this is awesome moment though XD

Very true. Small feet are a blessing. You probably have nice dainty feet, which look good in all types of shoes. My feet are on the larger side (8-9). I never really have trouble finding my size, but some styles just aren't cute.

I was refreshing like crazy, playing games with multi-pageviews trying to get my last few, too, haha. I wasn't even paying attention to them. Just praying for flowers. I made it in the end, though.

I'm sure making it to 20 was a fluke. If I get the Hustler even twice, I'm screwed. I don't think there's any way I could beat him. I've been doing okay with Slavam on his base HP in 1-2 tries. But after that first level win, nope. I can't wait until these enemies start to get a little easier. Right now every win is an epic 10+ turn battle where any wrong move is game over.

Hehe, see? Selling is where it's at!

And congrats on finding the perfect item :) What is it, and what is it supposed to represent from the book?

(>oUo)> Always lovely luff :* You can do it <3 Chibi request?! LAY IT ON ME! u I'll try and be careful but I'm about to go out because I feel up to it and I really need to get out more =_=

Thank you! My right foot is freaking adorable(weird to say but hey why not?) but my left foot I swear swells enough to be one of those needs a larger size shoe person. D: I got these stomping around boots and tried to have the left one stretched some but I think I need a size up ;-; Actually most of the shoe shopping I do is with a friend looking for her size (10) so I know the struggle hugs But you likely have a better base of balance than I do :D

Hehe, if you think your feet are adorable, why not? My feet will never be adorable, but that's okay... I can cover them with nice shoes and dress them up with nailpolish :) Size 10 is quite big, but if she's 5'8" at least she's proportional :) I can imagine that's far enough from the average to be tougher to find, though.

I feel you on swelling feet. Mine swell too, especially if I'm walking a lot, or it's hot out, which is why I can be both 8 and 9. Sometimes what's comfortable in the morning isn't at the end of the night, especially with heels :/ Breaking in shoes is the worst part. They can go from eh to heaven if they're worn in right.

(Wow, that's a lot of shoe talk, haha.)

Psh shoe talk is nice every now and then :D It's better for me than clothes talking. That more consists of: "Does this make my butt look big?" "Yes, darling, yes it does." *Emo corner *

Congrats on making it through the exams!!! I hope you have some time off to relax after all that stress <3 I've been doing pretty good. I'm likewise done with classes (for at least another week or two D: ) so I'm enjoying some time to rest, paint, or whatever my heart desires. I'm staring at a painting right now though that my friend said looks like a goblin... and she was right ;-;
