    But they would know you are not English, so does it matter that you won't sound English? So long as everyone understands each other, I don't see the problem. :supersmile:

    I am very happy, because I have now concluded that I have the best boyfriend that I could ever have! :D

    Love blossoms in all corners of the world. It makes me vomit with a smile as I am happy for the gushers involved. :supergrin:

    The other night my dad showed me a video of a singer of Ghost covering "Enter Sandman" and I said, "I want to see Ghost in concert." He agreed. I then looked up Ghost's latest tour and they're going to be here in December!

    My dad bought tickets for all of us (my mom, my dad, and me) to see them! I said it was in time for my birthday and my mom said, "There you go. That's your present." I'm totally okay with that!

    The last band I saw was Trans-Siberian Orchestra three years ago.

    If you asked my long time friend from Denmark: Yes. We even met as I was using the cat as an avatar way back.

    Love doesn't blossom here. :p

    Except for dogs and chickens.

    Edit: And before, not in a dirty way.

    My mother won an award today. Out of the four thousand employees, she took home the number one spot for her outstanding performance and attendance.

    Shes got an award ceremony today where they'll give her a trophy and five hundred dollars.

    I'm so happy for her. It's about time her dedication was recognized. Gonna go to the ceremony myself, since I don't have much to do today.

    Vacation! First one in over twenty years!

    Hi my lovelies! *waves excitedly* I'm leaving for Waldo Maine tomorrow at 3am. Got an early flight. Is anyone in the forum close to Waldo Maine? If so... would you invite me over for a drink? I get SOoOoOooo thirsty after a long flight. I would love love love to see any of you in person.

    I'm going to have a lot of time in my hands this week. Sitting on the beach with some sunblock slathered over my skin SPF 10,000 vs ultra violet radiation. hah take that sun! Sitting on the beach, with a cup of Bloody Mary in my left hand. Bloody Mary lifeless next to me in her beach chair on my right. An umbrella in my drink, an umbrella overhead. The salty smell of the ocean flowing over me with a cool breeze. The ocean waves lapping gent!!!.... *somone kicked sand on my freshly painted toenails!* "Be right back dear." This won't take but a minute.

    I'll be taking lots of pictures. Sitting under the stars next to the ocean a lot. Thinking of you all here. A lot. I'll probably be lurking in the shadows here too, my phone has a 4G connection.

    If you have anything to add to my bucket list please do. I've already done all the things that would make a catholic schoolgirl blush.

    I'm also going to take a picture of Waldo with me for when I goto the town of Waldo Maine. Many pictures of Waldo and I will be taken.

    This is going to be fun.

    A while ago, I complained in the “Not Happy” thread about a bigoted friend.

    Brief summary: He’s dating a close friend of mine. He’s “jokingly” racist. He’s gay, but he thinks bisexual people are liars/cheaters/confused/not-really-bisexual. He will make bad remarks about bisexual people in front of me even though I am openly bisexual. He also constantly flakes out on me.

    Anyway, I decided to let it go and stop hanging out with him.

    Today he apologized to me. He said his ex-boyfriend was bisexual, and his boyfriend cheated on him. He said he realized he was being a dick about bisexual people, he realized he’d probably offended me, and he was sorry. He said he realized his ex-boyfriend was a dick, but that doesn’t me all bisexual people are dicks.

    Anyway, that was... unexpectedly great. Good for him.

    B.E.T.A. Codes of Fallout 76 will be released early next week, I am actually looking forward to it.

    I've gotten over the disappointment of it being Online only, even if it's sol0 (though that could change) there is still a story mode. and I am now in the "I am intrigued" stage and I have a good feeling that I will enjoy it. being Online isn't much of a big deal, honestly.

    I always mention that I was in single digits when I started writing (Per-say) via crudely drawn comics, I asked my Mother when was the soonest. She said I always told stories and drew in sequences rather then just one still frame. But the earliest she can recall is when I was 5, for a class assignment we were suppose to draw something (She couldn't remember the assignment) but I drew in sequence the tale of a young boy from a galaxy far far away.... I drew a comic of Star Wars: A new hope. :) . (Drew as a 5 year old would) .

    Funny story about that, though I don't know what the assignment was i got in trouble apparently because they called my mother in to tell her I did the assignment wrong or it was awful. but she jumped the gun and told them what it was. A drawn sequence of star wars. I can only assume it was key scenes I remembered.

    I would love to have that, but it's gone with the wind. Destroyed, thrown away. who knows.

    It is a Lost Work, like my first novel, which was written when I was roughly the same age as you were. My aunt bought me the most amazing thing I'd ever seen, a blank book, and told me it was mine to write in.

    I did, and not only did I write, I illustrated.

    However, while my artwork is lost forever (a five-year-old's approximation of a Revolutionary War cannon, a generic tank [probably based on the boxy lines of the Tiger I

    which is still, in my mind, one of the sexiest things ever to take flight

    I do still remember the whole, unabridged, unaltered, unadulterated text of the novel:

    Then I kind of hit a wall. I know it should either be in the workshop or my blog, I hope the mods won't suspend me for too long....
