xD I THINK IT DOES

I'm sorry about your friend's passing. I hope you're doing alright.

read tennis racket as "team rocket."

got really excited.

ITS FUNNY CAUSE ITS TRUE

Sounds like you're doing good though with tennis. A strong two hand backhand really is an important weapon to have. It can be very powerful, and accurate. It was actually, my favorite shot! Nothing wrong with a single backhand, though but both is important.

I got a degree in Fine Arts (most usless thing ever apparently, but what degree really is useful these days when jobs are hard to find anywhere? lol) when I studied at my art university in Georgia. My major was illustration, but I also worked on animated films, self published a children's book and learned motion graphics. I just now finished an internship in Germany doing some work for interactive Ipad children's books at a video game studio and I'm trying to find more work in the video game industry as that's where I've been going.

Keep going with the tennis and sports and things. You seem super dedicated!

Yeah I used to play a ton, now I hardly play at all. But I stopped tennis when I was around 16-17 and I'm 23 now so I'm really out of touch. Graduated from college, and then life happened haha. I think I just enjoyed moving onto other sports, like grappling. I still run though, because I can do that anywhere! Just need a pair of shoes, thank God haha.

But keep playing tennis! It's super fun isn't it? I really wanna maybe even find a club somewhere I can start in.

Quite~

I like movies that I can apply to my own life, or place myself in a character's shoes.

Mhmm. I thought it was going to be a very kiddie movie, but it turned out to be more than that, at least for me.

"I can fix it!"

I really enjoyed that movie

Well I like that. And why aren't we friends yet? Are we friends? I'm about to check, and if not, I'm about to fix it.

Exactly!

And I hate to think it's just 'kids being kids'. when I was younger, I never dreamed of throwing rocks at animals, especially animals with their young.

Agreed.

I tend to feel the need to kill things outright if I've maimed them. It just feels like the right thing to do to me.

I totes stalked your VMs with Brian and dude I just had to say that anytime I kill a bug I totally hate it ugh even if it is just a bee o-o;

EDIT

I even rescue them outta my pool o-o;

You're welcome!

Well, I'm still hanging in there. I'm really stressed out lately but I'm trying to keep positive thinking a priority.

I hate when people do things like what you just described in the GCC chat thread. Makes my blood boil.

I see you became ZUer of the week. Congratulations buddy! You really deserve it!

That's awesome! It's a great sport... there's nothing like hitting a really nice ground stroke sometimes. Good that your'e finding yourself improving too, keep at it! It's not as super easy as some people think it is.

Walls are great. They will always return to you, lol. Sometimes if I'm having trouble focusing I'll mentally say "bounce" when the ball hits the ground, and then "hit" to time my swinging at the right moment. Somehow it just helps.

That's great (:
It's certainly the community and the people in general who make me return as well. I'm very glad I ended up creating an account here.

I'm think I'm going back to talking, err but I want to try done games before I become active again.

Hello^^
When I read your thread (now in another thread), I wanted to give you a poke. But then I had to leave for work. I'd like to say that I've seen you around here and there as well and that you seem like a pleasant guy (:

I really don't think parents should be this way! You know? She's raised me, raised me well. Now it's time for me to play the adult role, and quit living here and playing the 'child' role. Ugh.

But thanks again, Spidey. I'll be lurking around.....
