Not as crazy as that I must say! Though my cat did slash my bf in the nose O_O
yoyo eh? didn't know that came under all this stuff, but then again, I don't know why I'm surprised. It seems like if its something you can do tricks with you can slot it in!
Congrats on the uni moves! Your balance must be really good!

its not great at the moment, but its getting better. the skill and talent part is all im really lacking, cause im about crazy enough to try anything that is possible. so one day i will be good at it, or so i hope.
did you give out to your cat for doing so? i find with animals if they bite you or scratch you, just do the same back to them and itll never happen again.

My bf says thats good advice. I gave out to my cat yes, but i don't like hurting animals so i won't do the same back.

This is the riddle: https://zestriddle.fanzine.pl/
It's REALLY addictive, I'm on number 4, but it's bugging the hell outta me, I just don't get it....I've come close to the answer, but i can't go any further!
the 8th hit was a butterfly while not concentrating and talking to a friend who wanted to know what the socks i was swinging were for lol

dont worry about being shy, just come along and spin and if i think you need help or i have any advice to give you ill come over and say hey, and if you want help or just to say hey, you may do so at your leisure, of course i will introduce you to the others when you get there, that would be ruid otherwise. i look forward to having another spinner there to give me inspiration and ideas.
im so glad i dont and never have studied, my life wouldnt be nearly as fun as it is now if i had, although id know a lot more stuff than i do. yeah the weather is a bit dank and nasty out, but atleast i dont have to go out there.
i just dyed my hair pink, its so cool, ill shove up a picture in the near future, i love it. now for the beard aswell.

i reckon thats the way it should be in 6th year, it should be your own choice whether you wanna work or not, your grown up enough to make the choice. we were sotr of forced to do our homework and stuff in school, but i limited myself to about 5/6 homeworks a year in total, and i made it through ok. but i know i woulda done a lot better if i was in a school that made me do my work, that way id still be doing that now and wouldnt be this lazy. but if the school was like that id probly go insane cause that isnt how i work.

mm, sometimes its good if they treat you like this, cos thats how it is in college, if you don't do you homework, its your problem.

yup. sure wait till you get to college, so many people just weont do work cause they dont have to, and then fail or drop out. the freedom is too much that people take advantage of it and then lose out cause of it. people arnt very smart sometimes.
