    That's still pretty general, though. I know what the Paleontology branch in my university does, and most of their research involves microfossils (Radiolaria, Dinoflagellata, Diatoms, Spores and Pollen) but they also do macroplants an animals, mostly mammals.

    I'm not aiming for anything too specific as far as lab work goes though despite my implications from my last post. The only thing I'm not completely willing to do would have to be digging as I said earlier but hopefully I'll learn how to properly dig for fossil samples in the future provided I'm taught how.

    Digging is the fun, part though. |D There was this one time we were looking for shark teeth and it had rained a lot the days before. Everyone was using their hammer and bare hands to find teeth in the mud. |D Fun times, fun times. (It's not exactly digging, but yeh... Fossil hunting was always the high light of university trips.)

    I have no doubt that it will be fun, I just hope I don't screw up lol.

    Speaking of shark teeth, I used to have a few myself back when I was younger. Even had a necklace with one to boot lol.

    So now I have half a shark tooth (I wasn't that lucky, some found more than 5 very nice specimen) from the Miocene. For my birthday last year, a friend brought another one for me. :3 You can buy almost anything on fairs or expos or in shops, but nothing quite beats finding a fossil yourself.

    Don't know how popular of a building stone it is in the Netherlands, but if you look at freestone (Arduin/Blauwe Hardsteen for you Dutch-speaking people) there should be plenty of fossils stuck. They're all calcified, so they're pretty obvious.

    Shells and corrals a plenty. A friend of mine once found a very nice snail in a freestone quarry (on the waste heap). So nice, that my professor asked if he could keep it at the university, she kindly refused.

    Thanks! I'm pretty happy with it myself. :'3

    I don't have Black/White 2 sadly ;-;

    I've been taking time speedrunning games, like..Need for Speed, and lately Sonic Generations.
    Managed to get 1.54 on Green Hill Modern...what are some games you've been speedrunning?

    Does beating Black 2 in 6.5 hours count as speed running?

    Yes, I abused action replay and it was a ROM

    not much of a Speed-runner

    and ironically, I got 4 Total Victories (No Pokemon faint) in a row with Rotation battles against the world leaders

    used Ampharos, Cressalia and Zoroark

    Just as long as the fossils are in good condition will I be satisfied but I digress.

    Been too busy with Bioshock 2 and Naruto Ultimate Ninja Storm Generations lately to be playing any Pokemon, at least for now.

    I thought my laptop would have turned up today but it didn't. In the last fortnight I've only watched 2 cartoon episides, this can't be good for me.

    I've been too busy with hanging out with my sister, Tales of the Abyss (PS2 Version so with my sister), and reading Percy Jackson (which is my sister's fault). Today when she gets home we'll be heading out to get her Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon, and then heading to the library so I can see if they have the third Percy Jackson book. Then ... going wherever else we're gonna go. Maybe buy a movie at Wal-Mart to watch.

    ... Geez. What would be my life if I didn't have a sister right now.
