Woah, just log off for the night and I came back with 3 pages worth of backlog readings. This thread is sooooo busy.

Locale: Southeast Asia - Philippines
Slave to da man: Yap! Got to live a life. I'm a full time accountant.
Spawn: Not now and not in the near future...
Doing anyone: Nope! I came from a very conservative culture and family
Tats/Piercing: No tattoo. My mom would murder me while I'm asleep if she ever saw one. I have ear piercings 3 on my right side. Remnants from my adolescent rebellion.

Ally_Cat - It's been awhile since I graduated. I miss school, school is much better than working. :cry: Wish I could go back for a master's degree or something. Anyway keep it up, you're almost there...

Vampirenerd - *salute's to you* Wow 40 hrs of work a week and a full time student. I dunno about you but I work from 9am to 6pm and when the clock strikes 6 I'm out of here (except when there's deadline :lol: )

bored by the sea - I'm rubbish at names too. So please forgive me if I used your usernames. I'm getting good at multi tasking :lol: Net at work is my lifesaver, saves me from the boredom.

Blasphemous_Contessa - welcome to the thread. Post away all your thoughts...

Wish summer would end already here. The humidity is killing [email protected]. Can't even go out for lunch break.
Will be going out with my college friends this weekend. It's been so long since we all go out and just chill, this weekend sounds promising lots of things to catch up. Will also be babysitting my niece this weekend, my sister in law has some errands to do and we still can't get a hold of a nanny so I'm stepping in. Looking forward to it, love spending time with my niece she's just so adorable for a 10 month old plus practice makes perfect right!! :lol:

Okay back to work...Later

Immortals series: its like dark hunters, but with the celtic myths and all kinds of gods and godessses, demons, shapeshifters, genies, merpeople, etc. I just read 3 books (part 5-7 orso, bought them cheap somewhere), and they were pretty good. I might look around for the first books, if im out of series to read.

Today went pretty well!
I did really well on my mock interview, fumbled a little bit, but in the end got a 99%. I need a goal next time, not just get a job, haha (which I didn't actually say, but that was all that was going through my mind).

Entertainment interview in an hour, hopefully that will be sucessful too. Then Relay for Life event tomorrow - our booth is selling shirts, doing face painting, and selling cupcakes :D There is going to be music and improv entertainment too. It's going to be fun.

I'd really like to know what people think I have with my student life and what you miss because all my friends and I feel the same way.
I only get to hang out with friends once a week if I'm lucky and it is usually a 30 min lunch break. I can go a full day without seeing a friend, since I don't always have classes with them. We have no money for seeing more than 1 movie, lunch or dinner maybe every other or every 3rd week, no shopping trips - unless we beg our parents for funds. After that there is nothing else to do in town except for DSU events which I luckily get into free since I'm on the board. I go to class 4 to 6 hours a day, come home do 3 to 5 hours of home work, have a part time job and have positions on 3 campus organizations - for experience and resume. My schedule isn't the same any day during a school year, which makes it impossible to plan anything fun. I just want a schedule - not a family, a realtionship, or an adult life - just to be 21. Work from a certain, established time, an income, and the ability to plan time to hang out and have fun.

Off to change for my interview

Sami---OMG Another member of the Gublernation!! By the way, I own him. I am willing to share custody, though. How about I have him Wednesday through Friday, and you can have him Saturday through Monday? Or vice versa, I don't care. I actually need to share him--I have to divide my time between him and my other boyfriend, Jackson, LOL. Watch out, Obs will try to steal him from you.

By the way, newbies, I'm Jen, 24, and I live in Iowa.

That's all for now. I just wanted to freak out at yet ANOTHER Gube-a-holic! ♥ Dr. Reid!

Good evening everybody...

Just a short post, wanted to let you know I am still alive, though I don't doubt my lovely wive has been keeping you up to date about anything exciting happening in our lives.

Sooooo here's what's happened since I was last here, in the proverbial nutshell...

- Played 30 different xbox games
- Designed seven tattoos
- Drank about 12 bottles of good single malt whisky
- Decided that I liked the Twilight movie better then the New Moon flick, atmosphere is just... better or at least, less wrong. Music and blue filter help.
- Been Reading: Mercy Thompson ( 4 parts ) can't remember where those came from ;) , Dresden Files (all but one), been re-emerging myself in Anita Blake's world, re-read Lord of the Rings for the 20 somethingth time.
- Became an uncle for the seccond time.
- Had at least 666 arguments with my ex ( I believe that's also het phonenumber )
- Seen a lot of movies, Avatar was awesome and Alice was great though I wish I hadn't gone to see it in 3d.
- Helped start up 2 dutch fora.
- Work still sucks
- Healths been better
- General mood could use aprovement

and then some...

Haven't forgotten about any of you ladies (and occasional gent) and Jasmine has been keeping me posted about all your ups and downs. Love you guys to bits and hope to post again soon... sooner then it has been this time at least.

hugs and kisses for everyone,

Sid.

(Please forgive me for my typos and such, it's late and my spell check simply refuses to accept any other language then Dutch)

therealmrswhitlock well I'd agree, but I'm already sharing him with Narnia. We watch Criminal Minds "together" and text each other little "*swoon*"s everytime he does something particularly Reid-like.

Ally correct me if I'm wrong, but did you used to be on the teen thread way back when? I'm sure I recognize you from somewhere


of course I adopt you all and love you forever more. But please be informed that my quaddies come first in my heart ;)

Sami - I recognized your user name when you first posted, but i couldn't find from where. I only posted on the teen thread once or twice about 1.5 to 2 years ago. Other possibilities: Team Jasper, Team Volturi, Hunger Games, and Percy Jackson book thread - none of which I've been good at posting in lately.

*Quick Post*

It's Friday! Yay! I'm so ready to embrace the weekend. I'm dead tired at work, just want to put on my pj's open my laptop, plop on my bed and do things my own way. I'm planning on sleeping til late in the afternoon and staying in my pj's all day, in my opinion the best way to spend Saturdays. I'm such a dork, I just found out today that SM has a new book coming up on the 5th of June. The short story of Bree. And to think I hang out around the lex almost everyday and I missed that big announcement. :oops: :roll:

Texted my friend who's also a Twifan but too shy to join the forums about SM upcoming book. We're both excited. I'm planning to check out our local bookstore after office hours to see if they already accept reservations.

And I'll see you all next time I need to get back to work. Have a good weekend guys...and girls. :D
