I carry around a Trapper Keeper (yeah, I know, they're still around), 3 texts, a writing help spiral book thing that came with my English text, two notebooks, and a laptop.

It's not so bad. But I do have strong shoulders, so that helps.

What's a Trapper Keeper? :unsure:

By text books aren't as bad, it depends on what classes I have. Mondays are the worst because I have to carry around two of my biggest text books as they are about two inches thick and the size of a normal A4 book. :angry: Especially carrying it on one shoulder makes it harder.

Yes I use a satchel... Not good for me as I should get a backpack but ehh... I'll be finishing in December anyway so I'll manage. Any other day of the week is fine, just bloody Mondays... Hate them :P

Every day, I carry a backpack, 3 binders (since my classes somehow require that I have separate binders... nuts), 2 spiral notebooks, 3 folders, 3 textbooks, plus my English reading book and pencils/pens/etc. I don't even have enough room for all of it in my backpack. I carry the textbooks in my arms. I look dumb, but whatever. I would carry around my Japanese stuff to do when I'm not busy, but that's hardly ever. Plus, that takes up a crapload of room, too, since I mainly use a textbook and dictionary (Kodansha's Furigana Dictionary, in fact... it's pretty big and stuff).

I'm just always amazed at the people who don't carry hardly anything around. It somehow must mean that they're either not taking many academic classes, or they're just taking the really cruddy ones...

Oh Kodansha's Furigana Dictionary! I have that! :P I used that all the time in high school, very awsome it was, helped me out quite a bit :nod: Although the dustjacket it had tore itself up eventually from the way it was managed in my bag <_< Couldn't be helped, I had heaps of stuff in it at the time. The book is still alright though, as it has a hard cover and all... But more poor dustjacket... lol :P ... That cover over books is called a dustjacket isn't it? :blink: I just realised I was looking it that when I wasn't even sure if that's it's actual name lol :lol:

I just called it a dust cover... Not really sure how that helps because dust still gets in there sometimes..

Oh, and a Trapper Keeper is a 3-ring binder that is big enough for notebooks and notebook paper and it zips shut so nothing falls out, and inside is usually a bunch of pockets and little places to put your pencils or pens.

I have 3 or 4 at the moment..

Ah, 3 or 4 is quite a few. Heh. But do you carry them all around at once? I carry my stuff around with me constantly. Like, every day. Except Tuesday is a test day for 2 of my classes, so no books, I suppose. Which is good. I don't want to be hefting around tons of books while I go Catholic schoolgirl for the day.

Can people here count? Even if the numbers start getting big?

If it was from 71300 to 71500, can people count from 71300 to 71500?

A girl who's 27 that's in my class couldn't bloody do it, it was very sad and disturbing. Especially if she wants to be a travel agent, I'm wondering if she can even price things properly.

You see, she had invoices that were mixed up and had to be sorted out. It started at 71300 and ended at 71500-something... Anyway, when she had said she did it, I asked her to check it just to be sure it's right. And she did, so then when she left those invoices with me to do something else, I showed the lady who usually looks at them and she said, "This isn't right."

I was confused so I looked through the first pages... 71300, 71401, 71305, 71506, 71410, 71311....

So I was like, "Alright... I'll sort them out...." :blink:

Geez, I knew she was a bit slow but daaaaamn :wacko:

That, uh, is strange. Lol. I think people get daunted by big numbers though.

Besides, the brain only holds 7 "chunks" of information in short-term memory at once (give or take a couple). You start counting, but then you forget the numbers that you just said. At least, that's what happens to me.

But nonetheless, I think I could have done it. :P

Speaking of that...I'm back.

Oh wait, that's not relevant at all. Regardless, I finally have internet, so I shall post here and harass people to post at my forums and find things to take up my hosting space and etcetera.

Heh. Welcome back, yo. I had to reset my password for Nameless because I lost my other one... it HAS been 4 months, after all.

But I still never bothered to post..

It happens. Not much going on at Nameless, at all. Of course, I intend to change it through means I've yet to discover. Ironically enough, instead of making new threads and posting there, I'm posting here right now. Oh well.

Yeah, that tends to happen to places when you know you'll get a reply within 3 days. :lol:

Oh, and the Lost Password is fucked up, too. You have to copy the link and then paste it in the address bar and take out an extra "doomedforfailure.com/index.php" or whatever link you use. Here's the link that shows up:

http://doomedforfailure.com/dfo/namelessun...n.php?do=lostpw

Very odd, I should say... that's why having two URLs is bad for that..

Heh. *makes mental note to fix it, mental memory capacity is low and note will soon be overwritten by random nonsense*

Do you want me to change your password in the admin CP then? I think I can anyways...Heh, I haven't used it in a while. They nagged me to update the vB when I got back, so I did...I screwed it up at first, then fixed it, and I don't really notice much difference, but eh, whatever.

Wow, I'm back now.

Sorry for the absence, y'all. I've had some prior engagements to take care of. >_>

Before I do anything else, I gotta post in the RP. O_O

OMG, I just started watching Initial D and WOW, it's awsome! I wasn't sure what to make of it at first as I'm not really into cars and car racing. But I seem to really get into Initial D. A friend of mine bought the series and I was like, "Grrr... I want it!" But my brother started downloading the episodes so I was able to watch it and waaa, awsome! Seen I think the first 6 episodes thus far :nod:

Just so you guys know... I haven't been around the past few days because I've had a VERY bad week, which I just got done explaining but then the forums crapped out on me and I lost my entire fucking post.... so that didn't help.

Oh, and I've been working as much as I can aside from going to class because I'm broke, which I also explained, but then I lost my post.

Oh, that's too bad. Hope everything is alright now.

As for me, my day was evil. We had the Christmas Pageant on today so that didn't help in a lot of aspects. When I was getting into the city (where the pageant was going to be), my bloody bus started taking the wrong route. I asked if he was going the wrong way but he said it was right, which it WASN'T. So when I got off the bus, it took me 30 minutes to walk to work when it would normally take 5 minutes if not for the stupid bus. I was tired before work had even bloody started <_<

Then when it came to lunch breaks. Mine was at 12:30pm... Didn't end up having it until 2:30pm. Didn't bother me all that much but still, it was evil :P Then I had to walk home from the train station which was another 20 minutes... So by the time I got home I was exsausted :-_-: Working for 8 hours didn't help as well :wacko:

As far as I know, things haven't gotten any better. Nell's been acting cold lately so I had to finally get it out of her, and because things were tense, she suggested we take a two day break (we wouldn't have had time to talk anyways because of us working such long hours).

My past few days has been crappy. I can't seem to fall asleep. Curse you, circadian rhythm!

Also, I got a priceless reaction out of a classmate today.

Her: Does anyone have a marker I can borrow?

Me: Hm, yeah, let me check… *checks backpack, finds none* Haha, disregard that, I suck cocks.

Her: *silent, jaw hanging with amazement*

Me: *laughs* Never mind, forget it, I don't, really.

Her: *brakes away from frozen face* Oh, okay...

That expression was just priceless. Hahaha. I was kind of disappointed that she didn't know what I was talking about. For those not in the know, it's a bash.org quote. And sometimes I like to say "So I take out my robe and wizard hat..." to those who would understand it.

And also, my other friend was amazed at me when I said, "Motherfuckin' snakes on a plane!" He was like, "Ky, you curse?!" And I was like, "'Course I do, 'cuz I'm the Juggernaut, bitch!"

*sigh* I'm such a nerd. But I'm reasonably amiable to "normal" people, so it doesn't really matter.

Yes, Kairi. You are the Juggernaut, indeed. :lol:

Well, I had an exciting night. First, we ran out of equipment (again) at work, and as I am leaving an hour later than scheduled, I get pulled over by the Ashland police. I thought, "Mother fuck, I'm in trouble for my expired tag.." Turns out the main reason he pulled me over was for doing 49 in a 35mph zone. Then he noticed my temp tag, which was sposed to expire LAST month today (October 15th) but he thought it expires TODAY (November 15th), so I didn't argue, but I bargained with him and he let me off the hook. Turns out today is the 3rd anniversary of my first ever speeding ticket as well... how neat is that. XD
