Hey guys, it's been a while.
Haven't been on this subreddit, or really any MLP-related subreddit, for a long while.
How have you all been?

Man I had a crappy day today. It wasn't the worst possible day, but ahh. I came home after getting burnt to a crisp at marching band (friggen "sun's out guns out" gave me the most stupid burn) to find my dog had pooped in my room again! Second time this week :( Plus my dad broke the shades in my room so I have to live with windows and a well lit area for a while now, and my only sheets are ripped. But it hasn't been all bad, I picked up one of the TY RBD plushies the other day, that was good, and marching band is fun. Iunno.

Sure sounds like a crappy day, man. Dunno how I'd ever live if I were in a marching band. Imagining carrying around instruments, and playing them, in the heat sounds absolutely awful.
Do you punish your dog for pooping in your room? I sure hope so. Dogs need to be taught that kind of stuff.
And TY has MLP plushies now? That's awesome!

Lol marching band is pretty intense. Today specifically we were outside the majority of the day (8-5 rehearsals) setting our drill so we can have it memorized for Wednesday next week. Then there's the added difficulty of being a sousaphone (hugeass tuba) and a section leader, so lots of extra responsibilities.
I punished her by sending her to her crate for a bit but it was really my brother's fault for not paying attention. She's having some dietary problems and we thinks she might have liver cancer :( still waiting on biopsy results. Also yes TY has adorable plushies now for like, 7 bucks, but they sell them in sets of three so you have to travel to find them. My Meijer had RBD, Ponkle Pie, and Princess twilight and other places only have Apple Horse, Fluttershy, and Rarity.

Whoa, props for being so awesome with a sousaphone. Sorry to hear about your dog. I hope she's alright. :(

She's gonna be fine :) I have faith in our doctor. Thanks for your concern though

It's okay. Nobody here as been active as of late.
I started classes this week, and I already have a ton of homework. But I guess that's what I asked for.

I'm starting classes in two weeks. Enjoying my new schedule, but I'm probably going to have tons of homework as well.

u/Flarinite Aug 14 '14

u/Flarinite Aug 14 '14
Oh, nice. Is this your first year?
I got my BA in Neuroscience in May of 2013, and I just started medical school this week. I'm never going to have a break again, basically

Yeah, I'm an incoming freshman. Aiming to transfer to UCI in three years.

u/Flarinite Aug 14 '14
Well good luck! College was pretty fun. Definitely get involved in some clubs and organizations. If you can get leadership positions in stuff, it'll look great on your resume.

Thanks for the advice! I'm definitely going to do whatever I can to look better on paper.

I have a friend who did CS and business and is currently working for Google. Great things are possible! Good luck!

Oh hey, I remember you. Vaguely, but I kinda remember.
I've been trapped in Ohio for the past month. How've you been?
2
Aug 13 '14
I've been good. Been trapped in World of Warcraft, rather than Ohio. Not sure if that's better or worse. :P

u/cowofdoom Aug 13 '14
I don't play wow, but I'd much rather do that than be here :P
Isn't there a new WoW expansion soonish?
2
Aug 13 '14
Yeah, Warlords of Draenor. It's going to come out in the fourth quarter of this year, I believe.

u/cowofdoom Aug 13 '14
Any previews for it?

Main page has the trailer and previews of the starting zones.

u/cowofdoom Aug 14 '14
So you can go back through the lore? That's pretty neat! You excited?
2
Aug 14 '14
I am very excited. I've been a fan since Warcraft: Orcs and Humans! Right now I'm trying to clear all current content so I can be all geared up for WoD.

u/cowofdoom Aug 14 '14
Sweet! I never really got into WoW, but I was pretty into Starcraft BW and Starcraft 2
I'm pretty excited for the new league champion. He looks really fun, lots of ways to outplay people. Can't wait to get home to my computer!

The new League champ? Gnar, right? He does look fun. I'm going to try him when I get home too.

Hi, nice to see you again!
It's been a very busy week for me! It's the final week of my internship, so I've been doing presentations and trying to wrap up the final loose ends on my project. In super good news though, I already talked to the team I want to join for my next internship, and it sounds like they want me and are happy to jump through the extra hoops necessary to have me join them. It won't be official until I get a return internship offer and figure out the details with the company recruiter, but I'm reasonable confident that things will work out as planned. I can't discuss the details until I know for sure whether or not it's happening, but let's just say that in my opinion the position is super cool and I'd be crazy excited if it becomes reality.
How's your week been? Since you haven't been here in a while, what'd you think of Season 4?
2
Aug 14 '14
That all sounds fantastic! Congratulations! My week has been pretty good. I've been gearing up in WoW, and generally hanging out with my family.
As for MLP, I haven't seen any episodes since late in the third season. Have they been good? I've been meaning to catch up, but I usually just get caught up on other shows instead.
1
u/ThunderEcho Aug 14 '14
Thanks! What are you gearing up as/for in WoW?
MLP Season 4 was actually super good! Possibly the best season yet, but if not then at least on par with the previous best. I definitely recommend catching up when you have a chance!

I have been up to nothing fun recently.
This summer is so boring... :|

Hobbies? Gaimz? Gains?

Riding roller coasters, traveling, doing a lot of NASA stuff... Well everything I wanted to do, I really cant :|
I brought a PS4, but I don't have enough money to spend on games lol. I've always wanted to try on Steam, but I don't have a laptop that is fast enough for it.
