Positive Things :)

[(Anonymous)]

Just because I've realised that I've only complained in the last few threads, let's try and find the positive things - so...
... today, my classes went well and I had a student have a "aha" moment :D Yay!

I did not forget my brother's birthday.

Got a shower and am in my toasty bed, feeling all warm and clean, yay! Also got my W2 in the mail, so a refund is closer! Got some writing done, which is awesome, since i've been less than inspired, and got a wee b-day giftie off in the mail to my bff. :D

We're finally getting a raise at work woooo! Amount and when is TBD, but about 4-5 years back we were told we needed to 'top up' our education, as well as take a test that would regulate us ($1500), and pay yearly dues (~$500) to keep up our licenses.

... then got told that after doing all this (mandatory to keep our jobs) that we didn't need/deserve any compensation even though it increased our scope of practice and responsibilities...

Our boss as well as the managers/union leaders (we're not unionized) kept fighting and lobbying that it was ridiculous, and FINALLYYYYYY we got news today that we'll get a raise! The staff at unionized hospitals will get retro to June 2016, but even if we don't get that (unlikely as we are not unionized), we're still getting a raise woo! :D

My cat was very cuddly today. We spent a lot of time together. She kept coming to my bed for attention. It was sweet and she's precious and I love her.

I'm glad your classes when well and your student is doing good! I went and did the paperwork for my health card today, something I kept putting off because I needed my passport to do it and I kept forgetting to bring it with me when I went out. I'm hoping my picture turned out fine, I was in a rush so I didn't have time to put my makeup on perfectly, but I'm very glad to finally get the done with!

I realized that I have enough money saved up for more German lessons. Part of it will have to come from my tax return, so I haven't called the tutoring place yet, but I'm happy just with the idea right now.

Re: Positive Things :)

[syncing_feeling]

Well done, nonny! That must feel really rewarding. :)

I sent off my uni application the other day. It's a positive but I'm a bag of nerves right now, I dropped out of my last course ten years ago because of an assault and everyday feel like I wasted an opportunity. Really hope I get another chance.

I treated myself to buying the paperback of The Paying Guests by Sarah Waters on Amazon last night and it should arrive on Saturday. I have high hopes for it!

Christopher Tolkien has died aged 95

[(Anonymous)]

He was the son of J.R.R. Tolkien and continued publishing his work, notably The Silmarillion and created the map of middle earth.

Re: Christopher Tolkien has died aged 95

[philstar22]

I saw this earlier. This makes me sad. He's really the second Middle Earth creator after Tolkien given how much work he put into pulling the Silmarillion and the other non-LOTR and Hobbit works together. I've always admired how much work he put into making sure all of his father's writings were published and also how much he guarded his father's legacy.

That really sucks.

Re: Christopher Tolkien has died aged 95

Well....he was 95, it was bound to happen. I'm sure he's had a long, lovely life.

What new things have you been into?

TV, books, movies, fandoms, hobbies, whatever.

I've made a few secrets and comments about it already, but I'm still addicted to this Chinese fantasy series:

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Untamed_(TV_series)

Beautiful cast, beautiful costumes, angst, comedy and metric tons of and UST between the two leads.

Re: What new things have you been into?

Been trying to get into WoW again. Everything is so different. :/

Re: What new things have you been into?

I finally just started watching Star Trek Discovery. I'm done with the first season and I love it so far! Sounds like there are a lot of people who didn't but considering my county's library system has 17 copies of Season 2 and they are all checked out with dozens of holds, this might be a case of online chatter not reflecting actual popularity.

Re: What new things have you been into?

[philstar22]

Uh, not an actual fandom, but I've been watching a lot of videos on Youtube that involve people reading reddit posts today, mostly from r/entitledparents and r/Idoworkherelady. They just are more fun read in fun voices?

Rslash and Darkfluff are the two best youtube channels for this.

This was not my plan for today. Was going to listen to a bit of music. But I've gone down the rabbit hole.

I've taken three days to try and watch Watchmen (2009), it's hilariously bad and it's only taking so long because I keep stopping ever hours or so because I can only deal with so much for so long... Good news is that I'm utterly convinced Rorschach is completely in love with Daniel and I'm totally loving it.

Re: What new things have you been into?

I'm waiting to watch Hunters on Amazon Prime next month and the final season of Dark on Netflix in June.

I tarot. I ordered my first deck around New Year's and it finally arrived yesterday. I haven't opened the cards yet but the guidebook is wonderful.

BYLETH IS IN SMASH!

Untameable/ Mo Dao Zu Shi Links/Discussion Thread

[(Anonymous)]

Assuming these things are one and the same:

1) Does anyone have the live action Links?
2) Did they actually do a secoind season to the animation?
3) I will read the manga/webtoon/manhua (I'm guessing it's manhua) if there is no other option

4) LET'S DISCUSS!!!

I was an anon from a post from long ago, it was likely a secret featuring the animation that got me into it (along with discussion with a few other nonnies here). So thank you, OP from last week/a few days ago, and there are definitely people who want to discuss it!
