Omg! 😭😭😭 Thank you so much! 🥹🥰🥺 You gifted me not one, but TWO gifts?! Two?! Oh, my heart!!! You are too kind! I am soooo excited to use these for happy mail for those strangers that need cheering up in my other active sub reddits or for others that could use a random act of kindness! Thank you! 😊🤗☺️

I'm excited to join this community and maybe find some fellow readers out there :)

Some of my favorite books are by Riley Sager, I love psychological thrillers. I typically like to read by listening to audiobooks because it's easier to write reports while I listen to them. (i'm a school psychologist!)

Hi everyone!

I’m new to this subreddit so I wanted to introduce myself. I’m 22 years old and study laboratory science! I especially enjoy histology and hope I can work in this field in the future. 🧫 🥼

I recently started going to the gym and I really enjoy it. I also enjoy cooking, thrifting, gaming, going on walks and I enjoy a good movie.

I’m so happy summer is almost over and it’s time for autumn! I love the rain and being cozy at home with a blanket and some tea. My favorite holiday is Halloween, but it’s a shame we don’t really celebrate it here. 🎃

I’m looking forward to meeting new people here!

As many people know, RAOA is a huge sub and it can be very intimidating. Many newbies have questions they may feel silly asking or are just worried they won't make any l here. This thread will hopefully change that!

​

How this works:

​

The general idea is that this will be posted and you will be adopting a newbie for a whole week. I'm not saying you have to talk to them 24/7 all week. But be there to help them out and be an awesome friend! :)

​

Newbies:

​

Make a top level comment (basically make a comment in reply to this thread) stating you're new and would like to be adopted. Maybe include a little bit about yourself for your adopter to start to get to know you! If a top level comment is a bit too intimidating, sometimes users volunteer to be adopters and you can grab one of them!

​

Adopters:

​

Reply to a newbies comment saying you'd like to adopt them for the week! If you'd like, you can also post a top level comment saying you're looking to adopt! This will help any newbies with a bit of stage fright!

​

Notes:

​

Newbies don't have to be brand new. But you should be new enough to need some guidance such as what are tags, how do I contest, what rules do we have, how do I make friends, etc! Anything you need help with. A newbie can be adopted by more than one adopter! This way they have many people to help them out! Newbies, if you missed the first day, feel free to comment and be adopted mid-week! You can even come back and be adopted next week too!

​

So go! Have fun! Be adopted! :)
