I still have homework to take care of for my final assignments. Including one that my professor had to scrape from a lot of people and make us start over for a specific reason.

But in two weeks, it'll be all over for me for good.

Karinmo December 4th, 2015 7:37 PM

lol homework takes way too long, and considering I have a little bit longer till graduation (Yes, the age is correct, late grad.) I need to push through it.
Luckily, I can exempt all my exams so fdgjkdsjkflvblsdfv aka excite

Hiidoran December 4th, 2015 9:17 PM

First semester in, well, ever that I am not studying for finals this time of year...

Feels nice, actually. Being a graduate is nice, y'all.

GPA is only one line of your resume eventually anyways.

Hello everyone. How's your day treating you?

killer-curry December 7th, 2015 4:28 PM

well waiting for job hiring .........

Sothis December 7th, 2015 10:09 PM

I don't have school, I have to work now! But I won't be looking till 2016 since I want to spend the holidays with my family.

Hikamaru December 8th, 2015 7:36 AM

I need to make sure 2016 turns out perfect because every year for me starts out good but then sees me go in a rapid decline.

Terrible, because I've got finals next week, but I also have homework that was given to me yesterday and due this Friday rather than next week.

I sometimes think like that too... But don't you think it's better to start the year off with thinking "so this is a new year and everything is possible, and this is who I am and there's no pressure because what happens happens and I'll make the best of it"? :)

I feel this ;A;
I'm hoping 2016 will be different though!

Pinkie-Dawn December 8th, 2015 9:54 PM

Hopefully I finally get into a relationship (or start playing the original Xenoblade Chronicles) next year.

Leviathan December 9th, 2015 1:50 AM

I'll be content if the new year passes by quietly. Too much stuff has happened in 2015 for me.

Schwarzer Regen December 9th, 2015 10:05 AM

I'm looking forward to New Years already because it's become tradition in my family to buy military grade amounts of fireworks and stuff which we spend hours with letting them go off :3

Though I can't tell if 2016 will be that awesome, ah well

Sopheria December 9th, 2015 10:28 AM

I'm really looking forward to making some resolutions for the new year. This past year I managed to achieve most of my resolutions, so I'm hoping to perhaps keep up a nice streak ^^

moon December 9th, 2015 2:09 PM

I'm gonna get a body that's just so hawt I'll never be able to stop looking myself in the mirror.


... Doomed to fail this year's resolution too, I feel 8)

Circuit December 9th, 2015 2:51 PM

I'm looking forward to New Years because then I'll be able to get a cat!!! Meow :3

And also I may stop moping and finally get a grip and do something with myself. Properly XD

TheFattestSnorlax December 9th, 2015 4:29 PM

I greatly admit that this year sucked. Maybe 2016 will be better for me and the rest of the world.

noa December 9th, 2015 5:20 PM

2016 is gonna be better, I can feel it. It's the year I get my health issues under control, the year I get a good paying job, and hopefully the year I finish my translation program.

Let's make it a good one, guys.

As for my New Year's Resolution, I'm going to try and stop being so brash.

What are your resolutions?

Hikamaru December 9th, 2015 5:42 PM

I never make a resolution because they always screw up for me.

TheFattestSnorlax December 9th, 2015 6:31 PM

Oh yes. In our family, resolutions will always be broken in January, no matter what happens.

Livewire December 9th, 2015 6:41 PM

I'm not one for New Years resolutions, mostly for reasons people have already brought up - nobody really holds themselves to it over the course of the entire year unless you're crazy dedicated or have insane willpower, haha.

Sirfetch’d December 9th, 2015 8:23 PM

I make a ton of resolutions but rarely follow through with them. I either lose interest, forget, or just become too lazy and say screw it! Though this year, I do plan to go through with some of mine :)

killer-curry December 9th, 2015 9:29 PM

2013 : Still Playing Games
2014 : Still Playing Games
2015 : Still Playing Games
2016 : Hope I can stop playing games. But really?

LoL me every year

EDIT : Can you help me to name these dragons below? I know its kinda over to ask a request, but thank you for naming them!

Sirfetch’d December 9th, 2015 11:24 PM

Hey let's just make sure this year is DIFFERENT ;D

Sothis December 9th, 2015 11:33 PM

Make a resolution to make a lasting resolution, lol

Morkula December 9th, 2015 11:55 PM

I have a bunch of resolutions in mind for 2016 but I doubt many of them come to pass. I always make New Years resolutions and then get derailed almost immediately - although this year I did manage to go to the gym for most of the year, but I haven't been for a month or two now.

Hikamaru December 10th, 2015 12:02 AM

My mother wants me to lose weight because of my skin condition that makes lumps grow in sweaty areas like my breasts, but I find so much health food bland to the point I'll likely have to take long jogs in the heat.

YellowTemperance December 10th, 2015 9:45 AM

I hope 2016 is a better year than 2015. This year has been absolutely dreadful to me. I just want to welcome the new year already with a nice, hot cup of coffee and my family by my side.

Livewire December 10th, 2015 10:33 AM

2015 was mostly alright, summer was kind of meh and September flat out sucked, but I do think 2016 will be better! Mostly because Batman v. Superman comes out omg

Hikamaru December 10th, 2015 5:22 PM

At least the music releases this year were great... but hopefully 2016 will continue to bring out ones that are even better. I recall how terrible 2014 was, there was like nothing that would easily stand out when you looked at it.

Astinus December 10th, 2015 5:33 PM

A lot of songs that I like were released in 2014. But I'll readily admit that my music tastes aren't as high as other people. For example, since it was released in 2014, I will always enjoy Timber by Pitbull and Ke$ha. Never mind Pompeii (Bastille), Roar (Katy Perry), Counting Stars (OneRepublic), and Shake It Off (Taylor Swift). I'm really not picky about the music that I listen to.

Rude by MAGIC! can just never be played again on the radio because that song is obnoxious.

Hikamaru December 10th, 2015 5:37 PM

Shake It Off was the very song that caused me to hate Taylor Swift. Absolutely hated the new direction she was going in.

I actually enjoyed Shake It Off and I am not a Swift fan tbh.

Livewire December 10th, 2015 8:46 PM

I can rock out to 22 but only if it's a friends 22nd birthday, haha. It's hideously cliche but also kind of fun to do.

Sothis December 10th, 2015 9:57 PM

2015 wasn't good at all for me, I ****ed up a lot this year, so hopefully next will be better!
Like Hika said though a lot of good albums were released this year <3

Yes, I actually struggled with getting my best-of shortlist down because there was just so much music I found myself resonating with. Hopefully 2016 will continue to be good, I don't want another bland year (looking at you, 2014).

It is difficult... but at least we do share a bit of taste with each other

Master Snowy December 11th, 2015 6:56 AM

Indeed, the top hundred songs of the Billboard were THE BEST this year!!! I was so shocked to see each song line up perfectly as the best piece of music I have ever heard.

So yeahhh! Songs this year rocked!

Glad they got to make something of this year : P : )

Hikamaru December 11th, 2015 7:12 AM

One thing I'm doing on PC to prepare for the new year is clearing out inactive members from my friends list. Don't want too much clutter here.

Sylphiel December 11th, 2015 11:06 AM

I'm...probably not going to do that.

But I just hate removing people for any reason, so. :(

Hikamaru December 11th, 2015 11:42 AM

I find it so sad that some of these people I end up pruning are people I actually welcomed over in TWL all that time ago.

Yukari December 11th, 2015 2:29 PM

I... Don't think I'm ever gonna remove anyone from my friends list. x:

Aside from people I've already removed. But those don't count!

Meganium December 11th, 2015 3:18 PM

I forgot the last time I actually paid attention to my friends list on PC. I used to care but now I'm like "ehhhh whatever". I also have like...10 or so friend requests that I haven't accepted yet.

Sothis December 11th, 2015 6:57 PM

I only have 12 people on my friendlist so no cleaning yet~

Sirfetch’d December 11th, 2015 7:40 PM

I rarely clean out my friends list. I do have quite a few people on it that I never talk to but ehhh it doesn't really bother me tbh.

Aisu December 11th, 2015 10:22 PM

I have like...what...four or five people on my Friends' List; it'd be hard to prune that.

Hiidoran December 11th, 2015 11:36 PM

I used to just prune out the people who had taken me off their friend list, but now even that is just way too much effort.

moon December 12th, 2015 12:43 AM

New years pruning - remove aaaall the names! And add back the ones you think should be there now.

Maybe xD

Yukari December 12th, 2015 3:28 AM

That sounds like a lot more work than it could ever be worth tbh.

Sign me up!

The best way to do it is check everyone's last activity. I then prune those who have been gone for several months or after a year or two.

antemortem December 12th, 2015 8:58 AM

yoo

so i just moved into the cutest little neighborhood recently that apparently heavily encourages community participation. i seemed to have moved in a bit after whatever congregation decided to put santa hats on every mailbox, but i thought it was such a precious idea. does anyone else do this in their neighborhood, or have you ever seen it? just wondering if this is a common Christmas tradition or a unique new thing.

Hikamaru December 12th, 2015 9:03 AM

I bet it's unique, but Santa hats on mailboxes looks adorable

Wicked3DS December 12th, 2015 12:59 PM

That sounds really cool! I'd put one on my mailbox, but it wouldn't exactly fit or look good since its a flat one on the wall...and the lid is on top, so that's kinda a deal breaker too.

alisaie December 12th, 2015 2:12 PM

If we still had our own mailbox wecould do that. But now we just have a little slot in a big mailbox so no santa hatted mailbox for me.

Astinus December 12th, 2015 3:17 PM

My neighborhood isn't big on decorations, so I doubt there would ever be a community event like putting santa hats on our mailboxes.

Kaiyu December 12th, 2015 9:25 PM

Gingerbread cookies anyone? I just took them out from the oven.

Wow... and here I am knowing how odd I am because I live in an area where you usually see Indigenous Australians everywhere in the residency. I'm one of the few white families who reside in the area.

Skip Class December 13th, 2015 2:22 AM

I live in a neighborhood filled with old people/ people who just don't really come out of their houses. The communityish feel is more on the top of the hill whereas I live near the bottom where nothing really happens.

Meganium December 13th, 2015 8:05 AM

My boyfriend's neighborhood has a similar tradition as yours, Dave. They are also obligated to decorate for Christmas, even if it's just plain white lights. The neighborhood loves to see houses shine for the holiday season.

As for mine, not as much. None of my neighbors decorated this year, while I have lights and a Christmas tree in my place.

Hikamaru December 13th, 2015 1:31 PM

Like the past couple of years, my family are too lazy to put up Christmas decorations again.

dad December 13th, 2015 4:42 PM

my neighborhood does luminaries, it's really nice to see all of the driveways lit up and the various strangers drive by.

btw, the new treehouse banner is hot

Tsutarja December 13th, 2015 10:45 PM

This year was actually the first time in probably many years that almost every house in my neighborhood has decorations of some sort up. For years it was pretty quiet with maybe only one or two houses but it reminds me of how it used to look growing up when more people decorated for the holidays.

Oh more dank in the treehouse? Danke.

My neighborhood is just apartments so we just decorate our balconies. The lobby of ours is decorated too though.
