Hello Karla!~
Good to see you again!
I've been doing well. I've been busy all summer with work and now I'm busy with school, but things are dwindling down a bit. I hope you've been doing well! _________________

Ive been doing well.
Classes started a bit ago for me. I'm not taking a full load, but pretty heavy.
Java programming is killer though. It takes so much time to finish.
I have a few other classes, but the homework with them added up is not as difficult or time consuming as the Java one.
I kinda started seeing someone too. Though sadly they just opened a new business and are very very busy. We hardly get to see eachtoher but once a week. We do text every day though. But if we don't start seeing more of eachother soon I don't think I could handle it and probably will talk and maybe call it off. I see no point in a relationship if you only see each other once every other week. Some people can handle long-distance relations or not seeing the other person often, but I'm not that strong.
My grandparents were in town till this morning. It was good to see them, but I'm glad I can work on my homework and work normally now. I can't when they are here.
How is everyone doing?
Anything exciting going on?

Ugh, I can only imagine how time consuming programming can be. I have a friend learning Python, and it's not too fun either, evidently.
I'll stick to basic stuff like making maps and doing analysis.
Sorry to hear that you can't see your significant other as much though, that's always really rough. I have a hard time with relationships where you don't get to see each other much too. I don't think I could handle it long-term. (My last one certainly didn't work out, which is why I'm happy Will and I go to the same college). My inbox is always open if you ever need to chat or vent.
Haha, I can sympathize there too. I can't plan on getting any work done on Sundays since that's when my grandpa comes over.
Not too much exciting here. Classes have started and I'm swamped, as usual. I'm now the treasurer of the geography club at my college, and I'm busy trying to get all my stuff in order for graduation in the spring and for grad school applications.  _________________

I'm getting used to it, I have taken C++ and HTML programming already, so having that in my background has helped a lot. There are several differences, but it's a good place to start.
I've heard of Python, but I have not used it. I don't think there are any classes here to teach it either. I might look into it one day though, I heard the college is thinking about offereing a programming degree soon.
Yeah its hurting a lot. I don't know for what reason, but I really don't think it will last much longer. All I hear is how important work is and that there is no time for anything else. I'm alone a lot, I work alone, I live alone, I don't have any friends in the area, so I was excited to feel wanted for once. But it didn't last long. I guess what hurt the most was how easily I was discarded.
My grandparents left so I'm trying to catch up on my work. I went to do my Java test today and my browser crashed right when I started, so it counted that as my attempt and I got a 0. I messaged the professor to see if I could retake it, but no word yet. I'm betting no though.
You have clubs at your college? No fair. We only have like four and I'm not interested in any of them. I would love to be able to join some clubs. Meet some friend and get out of the house. Being alone all the time is really starting to take its toll on me. _________________

That's awesome! I'm still slowly learning how to do basic CSS and HTML editing (I might try to get to the point that I can code profiles on other sites some day, but no time soon). Programming is super useful though, especially with a bunch of the programs that I use to do GIS work (I just have to work around not knowing it).
I think the class at my college that teaches some basic Python coding is Geocomputation, so they're strictly looking at how to use it to do stuff in ArcGIS, ENVI, and similar programs since it's though the Geography and Planning Department.
So, if you ever want a job doing GIS analysis and making maps, Python is a good leg in the door. It seems like a lot of people (like me) that know the GIS software don't know Python, but need someone who does, and the software is easy enough to figure out if you play with it for a while.
It's always really sucky to feel like someone who you thought needed you puts you second. It's a really hard thing to cope with. :c And feeling discarded/abandoned is the worst. I'm sorry we don't live closer, I'd totally hang out with you and I think you're an awesome person.
Oh no! D: I hope your professor lets you re-take it. Maybe they can see how many questions you were (or weren't, in this case) able to answer and how long the attempt lasted and they'll let you re-take it. It sucks that that happened though. :c
Aw, I'm sorry. :c We have lots of clubs. o.o One for each department and then plenty of other student organizations and clubs. (I think there are over 300 different organizations on campus).
Aw, yeah. :c I hope you can find a good group of people to hangout with. Do you have someplace that you might be up for volunteering or something near by? I used to go to a no-kill cat rescue place and volunteer over winter breaks when I got too lonely (or when I felt too isolated). _________________

My professor let me retake the test, thankfully. I made a 14/15 so not bad. I messaged him the first time and he said he reset it, but I went to take it and it was still locked, so I messaged him again and he unlocked it again and worked that time. All that work for a 10 minute test, lol. At least its over with. Well for that week. It all starts over on Tuesday lol.
I think we have a total of like 8 clubs. None of them interest me in the least. I think half of them are student council or something similar. I know they were pushing for a pool (billards) club, but I don't think it went though. Not that I know how to play.
I'm honestly not sure of where I could go. Its a small place between two larger cities. Both over an hour away. I could drive to the big city, but I'm sure I would get lost and have no where to go anyway. Plus I have an old Jeep and it gets really bad gas mileage. Like it takes me a full tank to get there and a full tank to get back. I don't have that much money right now lol.
I'm slowly getting used to the Idea that we won't see eachother anymore. Ive been text once a day for the past week asking "How was your day?" and "Hope you had a great day" you know, stuff like that. But no responses at all. I don't mind if things end, but I would like to be told. Not just left out to dry, so it was. I actually texted this morning saying something like "How about I pick dinner and a movie and make a night out of it" but again, no response. I think what hurts the most is how easily I was discarded.
Yes, it would be great to hang out with you. I would really like having a friend with similar interests to hang out with. All I get is my cat, and she is...well...not the most comforting creature around. _________________

That's awesome. I'm glad it worked out for you! Lol, sorry you had to go through so many hoops to take it though. I know the feeling. Next Monday starts my mid-term week... And we're trying to go down to Carolina Beach for a GIS conference.
Aw, I'm sorry. I barely know how to play pool, and what little I know hasn't been practiced since... High school? It was fun to learn though.
Aw, yeah. That's rough. And I completely understand worrying about getting lost in a bigger city. And gas is definitely a concern. (My little truck used to get great gas mileage, but it would die at stop lights or stop signs if I didn't have my foot on the brake and the gas... And my mom sold it after it broke down, so I'm carless).
I'm the same way, a lot of times it seems like (aside from feeling abandoned or discarded) the worst thing is not knowing what the other person is thinking. It definitely sounds like you're doing all you can and they're (even though they're busy, I'm sure) not really making an effort. I'm sorry they're being unresponsive and treating you like this though. Do what you need to do for yourself, especially if you're feeling discarded.
I used to have an ex that would tell me he would take me out then I wouldn't hear from him all day and when I finally did he had something else to do and he'd stand me up. So, I usually did something nice/relaxing for myself instead of sitting my the phone, waiting for him to call. Don't know why I stayed in that relationship for three years other than I did care for him, and I wanted to be sure I'd done everything I could to make it work. Issue is, a relationship takes two people. And, I guess my take-away(s) from that was/(were) move on when you're ready, you know yourself better than anyone else, and you deserve to be happy.
Oh no. I've met very few "comforting" cats. Come to think of it, the only one that I've met that actually is has a super raspy-smoker sound meow and has a tendency to pet herself on people if they're not paying attention to her. I'm here if you need me though, even if I can't be there in person. _________________

We don't really have mid-terms here. Some classes don't even have finals. We are not a big college. But I'm Okay with that for now. I actually have plans to move to Japan next year. It's going to be so exciting.
Oh, I just found out, we won't be seeing eachother anymore. By a FaceBook post. Turns out, was dating someone at the same time as seeing me. Didn't even have the guts to tell me. Just started ignoring my call/texts/visits. And when I went over to see them at work, they hid in the back and didn't come out to see me. Such a coward.
Speaking of FaceBook, I don't think I have you friended on there. Would it be Okay if I added you?
My cat likes to be in the same room as me, and in eye-sight, but no touching. Mom's cat is pretty friendly. Though he always follows her around. He even sleeps with her too.

That's definitely different than how things are here. We have mid-terms, a final, and a final project (classes like GIS have labs too), but other than that those are our only grades.
That sounds awesome! And very exciting! I hope it's a fantastic experience for you!
Oh, wow. :c I'm sorry. That's definitely super cowardly and really immature of them. Ugh, I'm sorry they did that, I'm glad you have some closure though.
You're more than welcome to! I'll PM you a link to my profile in case it's hard to find (it probably isn't though).
Aw, they're both adorable. X3 My brother's cat was kinda like how yours sounds. She followed him everywhere she could, but if anyone tried to touch her she'd growl (which was fun, the closer you got, the higher pitched her growl got... You could make her make motorcycle noises).
I don't have any pictures of my mom's cat up yet, but here's one of our cat that recently ran away (he's been gone about a month and a half now, I have a sneaking suspicion that he may have had heart problems or other health issues). He followed me around and curled up with me on nights that I was home. And he had a ridiculously high pitched kitten-like meow.

Ive been in Japan before. I was there for a while when my father worked for USJ (Universal Studios Japan) in the past. Now they asked him to work for them again. Everyone seems excited about it, so I figured I should go along with it.
Yay! Added you. :3
My cat won't growl/hiss unless mom's cat gets close to her. She is a very quiet cat. And my mom's is very very loud. Always making noises. Very early in the morning, lol.
Aww thats sad. But I understand your suspicion. I had a really old cat with failing health that ran away one day and never came back. He was with us for 10 years so its not like he got lost or anything. I guess some animals leave during their last days. Its sad. I know that's what they do, but I would have liked to have burried him under the big tree.
I went to the doctor's to have some lab work done today. They ended up taking six vials of blood and I have to go back for more. They said since its been a long time since Ive had any done, they wanted to have a current sample or whatever for me done. So might as well.
Ive started working on a D&D character. I'm using my character Lumiere as a base and going from there. My friend is helping me since he is the DM for his group and knows what he is doing. There are too many rules lol. _________________

Sorry for the late response, I've been getting ready to go down to a conference later this week, so I've been catching up on all my homework.
That's awesome. I've never been outside the US (I've been to Hawaii, but that's still 'in' the states). I hope it's exciting for you.
Yay!
I don't think I've had a quiet cat. All of ours have been fairly loud. My brother's cat was probably the most vocal cat we had. she'd sit there and meow at us just because.
It's always sad when animals run away like that. But yeah, our cat was a runt and I think he had a heart murmur. Couple that with a cat that hated being left home alone (my mom and her husband left for a week and he followed them around for the whole weekend, he wouldn't let them out of his sight). We've had other pets do the same thing in the past too. We had one cat who was around 12 that we'd taken to the vet because she'd be sick ran off after we'd brought her back home (we were waiting on test results and we found out she had leukemia). It might be something like they don't want their humans to see them weak/in pain and worry about them. It is sad though.
Oh no. :c I'm sorry. My doctors usually take me coming in as an excuse to find any shots that I might be getting close to out of date on. I think they like poking me with needles.
Cool! I've heard there are a lot of rules in D&D. I hope you have a lot of fun doing it though!  _________________

Enjoy your new hoard my love. It is finally time that I say goodbye to Zantarni. Sorry to put it on you, but it would have taken too long for me to try and get rid of it by selling or seeking out people to send things to. you have always been my friend, and I will always adore you and miss you. I'm focusing on raising my daughter (she just turned a year last month) and getting my life together. I will always hold my memories of being here close to my heart. I love you all! _________________
