Wow, congrats!

Midge · 11-30-2009, 04:36 PM

Thanks. It's a lot of work, receiving so many congratulations... And I'm getting a LOT. Since I'm not on Facebook, they're ALL face-to-face, too!

***Varnafindë*** · 11-30-2009, 05:03 PM

Still, here's some more congratulations - some from me ...
*hugs*

shesabrandybuck · 11-30-2009, 05:15 PM

Happy Holidays, everyone!! Lllloooonnnnggggg time no see!

I got accepted into college! West Virginia University!! It's not my top choice, but it's still something to be proud of. It's an extremely good feeling knowing you've got accepted into somewhere. I take my last SAT this weekend & then I'm getting my license next Monday, so life is going fairly well at the moment, I would say!

How is your start of the Holidays going?

Coffeehouse · 11-30-2009, 05:49 PM

Wow Shesa, heartfelt congratulations! I'm glad for you, being accepted into the University is a proper achievement!

I hope you cherish the opportunities it'll give you!

Congrats again from a uni-student smack in the middle of his first MA year... boy is it hard work

(but i like it

)

Today they set up the Xmas tree at my institute. Anyone else get a christmassy feeling today? I'm already counting the days! 24....

That's how my holidays are so far. Pretty darn good. I got a pretty ring and everything. We're planning on getting married in June (7 months away) and all anyone can think about is Christmas Shopping! [/frustration]

Noble Elf Lord · 12-01-2009, 10:48 AM

There has been so many good - no, great news that I must post here and congratulate every appropriate person. So, congrats! Esp. for Midge, there's nothing as heartwarming for me to hear than succesful love stories!

If all goes well, I may be able to share one with you here soon... <3

Tomorrow, at 5.00 am

, we'll (many high schoolers, me, and 2 or 3 teachers) be leaving to Helsinki to see the Picasso exhibition in the "Ateneum" museum. Also, the h-s people will go to see a fair of career choices in nearby fair center. We'll be back at about 24.00.

Must sleep tonight...

***Varnafindë*** · 12-01-2009, 10:56 AM

I saw the name of the last poster, and I thought, Would that be the same Snowdog as the one I know?

Good to see ya too!
I'm RPing here as well ...

"And we're back on M.O.O.T. 102,2 with the Moots playing this Rolling Stones classic slightly changed..."

I can't get no Mootinfaction,
I can't get no Mootinfaction.
'Cause I try and I try and I try and I try.
I can't get no, I can't get no.

When I'm drivin' in my car
and that man comes on the radio
and he's tellin' me more and more
about some useless information
supposed to fire my imagination.
I can't get no, oh no no no.
Hey hey hey, that's what I say.

I can't get no Mootinfaction,
I can't get no Mootinfaction.
'Cause I try and I try and I try and I try.
I can't get no, I can't get no.

When I'm watchin' my TV
and that man comes on to tell me
how white my shirts can be.
Well he can't be a man 'cause he doesn't smoke
the same cigarrettes as me.
I can't get no, oh no no no.
Hey hey hey, that's what I say.

I can't get no Mootinfaction,
I can't get no girl with action.
'Cause I try and I try and I try and I try.
I can't get no, I can't get no.

When I'm ridin' round the world
and I'm doin' this and I'm signing that
and I'm tryin' to make some girl
who tells me baby better come back later next week
'cause you see I'm on losing streak.
I can't get no, oh no no no.
Hey hey hey, that's what I say.

I can't get no, I can't get no,
I can't get no Mootinfaction,
no Mootinfaction, no Mootinfaction, no Mootinfaction

Thanks! I was going to tell everyone... Feel free to celebrate everything however you'd like, but I'm not 21 yet. I can't drink yet. I MIGHT consider having a small glass of wine on my birthday, but I might not. That's an awful big "might". I'll have my hot cocoa, thank you very much!

**Mari** · 12-02-2009, 06:26 AM

I wouldn't worry about that, Midge. I AM over 21 and I don't drink either

Alcohol doesn't go well with euthyrox as my sister figured out for us.

***Earniel*** · 12-02-2009, 06:33 AM

Who needs alcohol to celebrate something? You'd be surprised at the amount of celebrating I can do on orange juice and snacks.

**Mari** · 12-02-2009, 09:55 AM

You'd be surprised how drunk I can seem when playing Uno with my friends in Japan and that without even a drop of alcohol...
