Oh joy... Indifferent

*inadvertently nods off*

Er... umm... I wish I could have gotten my brain to work that well. Veryhappy

It'll be a busy 25 days, but you'll do fine I'm sure. Wink2

Nice bit of writing, Urdu! Thumbs Up

Back to the thesis: if anything, I'm surprised on the number of conclusions I've made in the last month than during the entire time I've been researching, considering how I'm looking back at what I've done and been able to FINALLY explain on some questions I had with the program I am using. I guess my brain is finally working... lol.
And Urdu, believe me, it's hard to get the brain to work at this point, considering I just want to be done with it already! Veryhappy

good luck to you speedy, I have a hard time filling up just 30 pages (even when there's a lot of information, my mind auto-summarizes and kicks out the fluff) so I can only immagine the time spent on the 70.

Urdu, that's the school for you, we start later than most others, which is great for people who are transferring to it or coming in as freshmen, but I can only immagine the hassels for people transferring elsewhere

Well, writing summaries of other people's work and adding in pictures and tables helps fill out most of that space. Only the last 20 pages of so have directly been related to my research. The rest is either introduction, literature reviews, or explaining the governing equations behind the software I'm using.

I know what you mean Speedy. I used to be a bit of a workaholic, and now that I'm no longer working, I find it difficult to work or concentrate on much of anything for very long. Doing any kind of drafting work now is too much like... work. Veryhappy I couldn't imagine going to college for eight years. Nuh uh

Glad you liked the writing. Sometimes it takes some effort to not want to go outside all the time when it's nice out.

Hi all. Just to let you know, I have had a rough couple weeks (lost a friend, and been very ill the past few days) so have not made it in. I'm sorry for my absence. I have been in to archive the MH and the other threads every few days so I am keeping that up at least, just have not been able to read much, or write much. I am sure I will enjoy reading what you have done to with my character when I am feeling better. Love you all.

By the way, that "bundle" Sora's carrying... please don't write him opening it up, anyone. He's got no intention of doing so, and I don't think anyone knows what's in it.

I was in the process of writing a post Achenar, but you beat me to it. The continuity on both posts works out ok, so.... Thumbs Up

Ugg. Sorry to hear of your distress, Marae. Sad

My problems aren't that bad, but yeah, I haven't been able to post as much as I like either. Of course, now that someone just broke into my home and robbed it, I've got a whole other mess to deal with. *sigh* I'll try to keep up better.

Well, considering how hard I fought to get this place back up, it would be nice to see some people posting in here again... Indifferent

Is it too late to join? I've finally finished final exams and all.

I suppose I should go read so I'll know where everyone is....

[edit] You know it occurs to me that Tora technically never actually vacated the Age 233 (seeing as I wasn't around at the time of the confetti avalanche). And she's a witch with a shapechanging letter-opener, and has a heavy-duty gypsy-type camping tent in there.
Hm, ideas! Twisted

Sure, you can join, Tora, provided that you've read up what's happened so far. But I think you've got that covered.

CK: it's ok but I guessed I assumed everyone had read the PT where I announced this forum was back online... sorry, but I've been trying to finish my thesis and my frustration has sometimes gotten the best of me the last few days.

Yup. Did get the PT. I think it's just taking us a little time to get back in the groove. Wink2

Was it just forum problems or was the forum being shut down?

[edit] Sorry, meant that post for the MH. Hammer

Say, is the Age 233 in Town? If it is... why the heek did everyone Link so far away just to come back for the Town Council Meeting?

*looks suspiciously at Marae's link* maybe all that punching broke it...

The server was down for maintenance, and then the community managers decided to close down forums they deemed 'inactive'. They included this forum on the list until I persuaded them to take it off the list.

And Tora, the town council meeting is in Town, but no one ever said if the Bar was. Wink2
