It's such a great game. It's so expensive though if you want to be up to date with cards and play against other people in shops. I've been playing for a few years.

@newtus- I met one of my best friends off craigslist and met a few friends off okc. Just have to be smart about who you decide to meet.

I drew today, I'm trying to get back into it. I have to get over my perfectionism thing where I quit when I don't do something exactly "right" (ocd traits) I drew a anime kid Frankenstein I made up, and it came out okay, pretty cute even though the proportions weren't quite right

I just had a brilliant idea.

I've been looking for jobs for weeks, and having little luck. I also have a hard time gathering the info I need to determine whether a job is a good match for me from the descriptions provided on sites like indeed.com.

So, I'll hire myself to make a better job matching site, haha! I'll allow people and companies to make profiles, like what you would see on a dating site. Detailed descriptions on past projects/work histories from both sides will be provided. For a lab job, for example, the advertising lab can post links to recently published papers while the job applicant can post links to papers they've gotten their names on over the years. So that both parties can see if they are a good match.

The site will provide statistics on which companies have hired large numbers of applicants from your university, etc.

There will be a job seekers support forum.

And inspirational quotes.

Alright, time to start looking at $5,000,000 houses.

Have you tried naturejobs? It's where a lot of the university positions are for people who have to advertise.

I think it's part of your personality....like I see science like that but when it comes to philosophy I kind of don't get it at all though I find it beautiful when you guys discuss it.

Does it have to be "either/or"?

I've observed that people with mental illness happen to be incredibly intelligent and creative. Our thoughts are original, because our minds are original. We think differently, and that is both our greatest curse and gift.

i was just asking because i read a website that asked Silvia Nassar (author of A Beautiful Mind) if she thought John Nashs schizophrenia helped him in mathematics. she said she didnt think so because he would have done great with or without schizophrenia.

I've been wondering how you were doing. I'm praying for you to have strength to get through these next couple of days. How's your sister?

Is there anyone there that can stay up with you, so you don't have to be awake alone?

Hold on for a few more hours.
