It's really tough, but I'll overcome it. It's hard during the first year, but during the 2nd year you'll get used to it. Also, too much money to spend too, especially on books xD
Two and a half, counting this semester :D I just have a long way to go, I'm aiming for a Bachelors and I'm planning to transfer out to another college, probably out of state.
Squirtle has no general purpose for being shiny, I admit it would make more sense if it wasn't. The reason why Squirtle you encounter is shiny is the fact that I wanted to test out something new, that's all. Most of the scripts in the "beginning" of the hack are also tests to see whether something works or not (like the stairs in gyms and that kind of stuff).
Also, I'm answering to your question here because I usually tend to post updates along with saying something else. It's pointless to make people check the thread just for me saying what I pointed out above.
Fine, just been extremely occupied lately. I'm a roleplayer and I jump from forum to forum to check on updates. So nowadays my activity here is slim alongside schoolwork D:
Drummershuff, I've seen a few times but not as often. Never heard much of Forest Grovyle. I kinda suck remembering who's been around here and who hasn't. haha xD
