Hellooooooo!

I'm just trying to get TBT to get the November birthstone because I want all of them.

It seems like you're getting pretty close! Good luck!

I only buy birthstones if I know anyone with a November birthday. I don't so I'm not buying.

How's everyone this fine morning??

yes there's no more craze for spellectibles since Jack's shop is gone

Yeah, I don't really buy birthstones except for that reason you just posted. x) Or if they are ones I really like (in terms of how the stone looks appearance-wise)!

I'm all right, just kind of tired! How about you?

I'm good thanks!


jesus christ. my blasted figma do not want to stand up today.

That's great to hear! Ooh, which figma? I wanted to buy one but I think I'll hold off for a bit ^^
 
Coconuts. XD I loathe Chemistry, I much prefer Astronomy and Biology over it. :P

Oh trust me I used to loathe Chemistry sooooo much until this year, when I actually started to understand it XD OH and Breaking Bad. Oh my god it made me realize how cool Chemistry actually is. ;u;

I'm not much into Astronomy, I'm sorry ;u; but I used to be in this Astronomy camp, we used to go on overnight camping trips in which we used to do field research on stars and planets and stuff on certain days when they were visible. We used to use these huge ass telescopes, man it was so cool. In the end we even got our own telescope (:

I'm actually a Biology major/Medicine student so I kinda love Biology xD what subjects do you like besides those? c: Any plans for the future?

Hello everyone!

Hi Evvie! Your new avatar/signature is so cool ;u; Also are you referring to this page? c:

Oh, interesting! I did not know you were into Biology/Medicine! That's very cool ^^

As for myself, I was initially a graphic design major but decided that just wasn't for me. I ended up switching to criminology with the focus of forensic behavioral science. I'm planning on getting my internship for victimology soon and I would really like to become a victim advocate.

Also, hi! I'm doing all right, just tired (And kind of hungry xD) How about you?

Well, I fancy art quite a bit. Aside from that though, I'm not totally interested in anything else, but I am alright at Algebra I guess. xD And nope, I'm still lost as to what I plan on majoring when the time comes.

I'm sure you still have some time to think it over, Alby! My high school would pressure its students into thinking up of something, at least to have as a placeholder. You can always switch your majors anyway, but don't do it too late (Like 3-4+ years in already haha;;..) when you think a certain major isn't right for you!

Wait, your high school forced you to think up of a major? That sounds rough. x.x Mine only gave us pamphlets and presentations in order to encourage us to pick certain majors.

Yeah, I guess they just thought it was better than putting "Undecided." xD So they made us pick something

Aw you think so? O: thanks c:

Omg I actually considered getting to graphics earlier but then refrained o: but that is sooo cool, do you do gfx much these days? So is the whole forensic stuff, I've only seen stuff about it on TV and man is it fascinating. When do you get out of school? c:

Aww, you should get some sleep! I'm really tired too, just waiting for dinner after which I can go sleep or take a nap or something, haha.

Also I just realized dinner is lame .-. I guess I'll just go sleep ;u;

At least my mom made these chicken wings o: they're so yum omg
 
That's great to hear! Ooh, which figma? I wanted to buy one but I think I'll hold off for a bit ^^

Ah, I have currently Madoka Kaname and Sakura Kinomoto! Figma are awesome! I used to buy fake nendoroids, but now I just prefer being able to pose them and stuffs c: I hope to get the other Puella Magi Madoka Magica characters soon! c:

Hi Evvie! Your new avatar/signature is so cool ;u; Also are you referring to this page? c:

YESSS thank you! also ardrey drew them for me! ^o^
 

hope you guys don't mind me joining the convo 8")
but from where I'm from, most people decide on their major like... 3 years before uni haha ;7 ; and most people change their minds by the time they graduate too!!
I was aiming for law/medicine at first (I did all science subjects) but ended up picking something entirely different and unrelated lol xD;

Of course! Science is cool. x)

Oh, did you? I thought it wasn't really what I was looking for, so I decided to switch. And no, I don't really do gfx at all anymore, but I draw whenever I have the time or feel like it xD
Hahaha TV always exaggerates stuff like that! But yeah x)
Are you asking when I officially graduate from my university or just for the semester? The former, I'm not too sure yet. The latter, classes end on December 9th for me! Then I have my finals on the 14th-17th of December ^^

Nah, I can't really sleep when I've already woken up x'D... It's 8:21 AM here, pretty early still though!

Aww, well.. at least you have chicken wings? x)

Hi there, Jint! We don't mind at all, the more the merrier!

Ahh, here, we usually decide on our last year of high school (so if you want to continue going to university right after, it'd be literally the year before;; ) What did you end up picking, if you don't mind me asking?

yeaa that's usually the case too (like, confirming and such!!) but most people are already aiming for something a lot earlier because you need certain electives to get into certain courses as well orzz
I ended up picking.... media.... orz
and it's the theory bits too, so we don't learn how to use design software or professional cameras etc 8")

I have a petite nendoroid of KAITO, but sadly it was fake ;v; I googled the ones you have, and they are sooo cute!
I actually have a few conventions comming up so HOPEFULLY I can pick up a few more figures there ^o^


I would ask my family to get me figures for birthdays and christmas ETC, but the problem is, they would end up buying fakes because they are cheaper ^^"

Yeah ^^ Quite a lot of students would already know what they want to major for by the time they register, but most still aren't so sure or too certain. They are always free to switch whenever they want, so that's good!
Ooh, media? That sounds pretty cool, though! Or were you hoping for something else? D:

Ohh.. aww ;-; I'm hesitant since I wouldn't want to buy fake ones, so I try looking it up online. I don't have a lot of money to splurge on figures right at this moment so that'll have to wait hahaha ;;
And thank you! They really are cute, but the petite have crappy stands... so difficult (for me at least...) to put them on.

Yeah, it was a shame. I guess I'll just use it in decoden or something
Fakes are an issue online.
Usually, this is the standards I go by:
1. If it is under ?20, then its probably a fake unless it's an auction.
2. eBay is a huge Nono.
3. Google search the images, and if they only have stock images then do not trust it.
4. If the photos are unique, study them carefully and make sure nothing stands out as fake.
5. Look at feedback and see if the website is trustworthy
6. Ordering from Japan is safest ^o^
7. Look for the holographic stickers or the 15+ stickers!
Usually if it's in person at a shop, you can usually tell c: AND YES, I HATE THE PETITE STANDS HOLY MOTHER. I hate the seat stands as well on the original Miku nendoroid it broke on me! Peg stands are a godsend for me.

Mandarake is quite good for this stuff! ouo It's 'used', but mostly they have a really low price! Most of the time, the figures haven't even been opened, so if you don't care about the boxes being a bit dented, you can get brand new figures for lower cost!

hahaa yeaa there's some universities that let students study general subjects in their first year, then declared their major during their second 8")
ohhh I like media a lot!! it's just that I have no idea what I want to do after I finish my degree and there aren't exactly a lot of options xD;

Thanks so much for the tips! Very helpful indeed ^^ I've only gone to one convention (small local one at a mall) so far, and this lady was overpricing these really small keychains... I forgot what they were called but I checked on amazon and I think a bundle of like 5-6 cost about $20? and the lady was selling them for about $25 EACH. I wanted to tell this lady she's crazy, but I didnt

And thank you for the link! My brother mentioned this one before since he likes to uhhh "window-shop" (?) online. xD I'll probably wait until I save up more though x)

Oh, yeah! That's definitely possible, one of my friends did that, but he's taking a break from school right now. He's out working at the moment ^^
Ohh I see! Well, it's good that you like what you're going for! I'm sure you'll figure it out when the time comes ^^ Hopefully you aren't being/feeling rushed
