What happened in your life during the downtime?

[Wind]

Lessee, for one me and my class was interviewed and got on the local newspaper as the best terminal class in my school (at least, I hope it'll be so ever after exam results are out! ). Then I finished high school. There was a last-day-of-school bash, and now I'm studying (sort of) for finals.
Me and my classmates also went out to dinner with some of the teachers, and that was fun too.
Then there was a terrible storm and my house (and most of the city) was without power and water for a day. Uggh.
And I started NQ2 in Evil for a second time and got halfway into the Lost Desert.

I know that a lot has happened in those last 10 days, at least for me. And there was no PPT for me to post in! OMG! But now the forums are back, so yayness
What happened to you in 10 days?

[o_0]

It was TEN days long???

Wow. Well, I guess I got back from my Spain trip and they lost my checked bags. Yay! So they have until Thursday to get them back to me. And it sucks because all but two shirts are in them.

[Pixa]

I finished school, forever, yay. I did my final 2 GCSEs on Friday. Now to wait for results day, and then college! I get to sit around at home for 10 weeks... bah, in my dreams. I can see much nagging for a job occurring in the not-too-distant future.

Echo, Echo, Echo, echo...

[Shifty]

I twisted my ankle which became the size of a tennis ball, turned black, and is now in a cast.
I had my 19th birthday on sunday, and my dad came to visit.
I got my 17-70mm lens for my camera.
About 10 magazines.
And 45 movies.


Oh yeah, and I ate pizza.

[Jasujo]

For those ten days, I was working on PPT, getting things fixed up for re-opening. lol

Besides that, coincidentally I was able to get back online just as PPT went down. (For those who don't know, Gwen (my youngest - 4 yrs old) decided to touch my computer when I stepped away from it back in April and filled it with all sorts of nasty viruses and such. Just as we had it mostly set, she did it once more and made it even worse than the first time. My computer is currently still down, so I can't get to my files atm and I'm using Tim's. :/) It was definitely nice to be back because I had a ton of stuff I wanted to talk about with everyone while I was "away", but I couldn't really discuss anything because the majority of the users couldn't access the forum! Oh, the irony! haha

Also, my 2nd daugher, Jasmine, had her 8th birthday on June 11th. That weekend, we had a big cookout at my house with lots of nummies. That took a lot of preparing and cleaning. haha Her in-school party was on Tuesday because she had a field trip on the Monday, so I spent quite a while getting 24 goodie bags all sorted out. lol Other than that, my oldest three girls are almost done with school, so it's been a busy time. Gwen will start this fall, so I've been working with her to get her ready.

I also tried unsuccessfully to play a bit of WoW. *shakes fist at fps issues* I started playing Pirate King Online and have decided I rather like it. To fill the last bit of free time I had, I got some good manga books under my belt.

Multi-tasking, ftw! haha

Well, I was on holiday until the 9th June and when I came back it was down. I haven't really been doing much else. My life is very boring.

[Twinkle]

I got my braces off.

[Mongrel]

Pudding and I decorated shirts in a quite awesome fashion. We showed them off at Wal-Mart and I discovered no one likes mimes.
I snuck out of the house late at night and didn't return for 24 hours, and didn't get caught.
Other than that, I discovered the internet completely sucks when there's no PPT, and failed to get a job.

[Shadow]

Well for starters, I checked PPT every day a couple times a day to see if it was back yet. No luck till yesterday! Discovered (or rediscovered) that myspace is boring. Watched about 30 or so different movies. Hung out with friends every few days. That was incredibly sad because most the time I just sat here waiting for something to do. I was so bored. OH it is also really hot outside already so I couldn't go outside and chill. Life was boring.

[Rissa]

I went out of town to one of my favorite towns ever, turned 16, bought a ton of clothes, played more Guitar Hero than is healthy, got rather tan, ate way more junk food than is healthy, was considerably lazy, and worked at vacation bible school at a church that i do not belong to.

[Asthaloth]

I wrote things, mostly D&D related, I'm most proud of the description of the city of Nth'wst (A city built around the tomb of a mummified fallen cuaotl, to escape the otherwise hostile conditions of the abyssal layer. Unfortunetly she aint as dead as the inhabitants think) and of the planar city city Asaron (Decimated during the cosmic war in which the cities drow allies turned on them, oh yeah, and it's full of friendly zombies and an insane(in the "150 year old granpa kind of way) demilich.


I had little to do, obviously.

[Ammer]

I was in Quebec, then I came back.

And PPT was magically up again.

[ahoteinrun]

I turned 23.
My favorite 43 year old horse died (he had a stroke on my birthday and was humanely put to sleep four days later).
I found out that I hate construction work even more then I previously thought.
I realised that porta poties are the filthiest most scariest place on the planet.
I decided to go to Australia and look at stuff there this fall (and at Universities... ho hum).
I've decided to go for my Masters sometime in the near future.

I'm feeling very adult and yet, at the same time, very immature. Yay for random posting.

[Siouxper]

I checked PPT about 5 times a day, played a couple games of Yooothingy, and had to read lots of books. It was awful.
