No one forces you to accept money for something that you are expected to do.

Isn't it past your bedtime anyway?

Yeah but who says I'm in full control of it?

Dude, you get paid money to go to school, I pay money to go to school. You have literally no position to complain about your finances.

Not to mention the whole preparing to live on our own thing.

Shelter boy is sheltered boy. I

Someone should pay me money to go back to school, this whole IT business is ass. I want a do over.

I'm majoring in IT business, it pays me pretty well. I love taking pictures, so my other freelance job paid me to go major in Photography. Win/Win. So yeah, how's stuff on your end, Nemesis?

it's just really hard around here to find opportunity in what I'm doing. So right now I'm branching out into other territory a bit while doing some studying to advance my IT career. Still have no idea what I want to be when I grow up ๐Ÿ˜›

Yeah, I know how that is. The town closest to me is extremely small, so they'll snatch up anyone that knows how to connect a business and keep it flowing. I lucked out and every once in awhile work with my friend who works for Verizon. Only part-time there, as I usually just do portaits and such.

Speaking of which, my friend finished her Silent Hill Nurse outfit, and I did her photos as well as made her mask. Here's one I like:

Thinkin' about dressin' up as Pyramid Head along with her. Only if three other gals she knows decide to dress up as nurses. If that doesn't happen, then I'm dressin' up as a Red Lantern.

I'm working for a temp agency right now, I have work sometimes but it's barely enough... I have bills to pay and IT work around here has become non existent.

I either need to start freelancing, or get on that corner and pull up my skirt.

Also, for Halloween i'm gonna be bland and do... nothing. Maybe if I get enough cash I'll purchase a blue jumpsuit and yellow electrical tape to make a Vault Dweller costume with that 13 on the back.

Edit: Bored, I decided to check profiles for aim SN's and apparently Peach has me quoted on her profile. I feel special now... no not that kind of special I've always been like that ๐Ÿ˜›

Oh, I see. Hope freelance opens up more opportunities for ya. You deserve it.

I appreciate it, but I'm not too sure I deserve it.

That photo looks incredible btw... not sure how you do all that but it's awesome.

Trust me, ya got those stinky things called bills and I know what it's like when IT work just stops existing. First year of college, wanted to get an AA in humanities, then I realized in this town they'de see that and laugh. possibly while pointing at the door, haha.

Thank ya! Twas a simple photo on my new DSLR, slight tooling with photoshop, she loved it. The hardest part was making the costume. Had to soak that dress in tea and do a bunch of other steps. Still couldn't find an old antique razor like they had in the movie, or a gun which could've deressed lots of people. We did find an old glass syringe though.

Soaking a dress in tea does not a difficult costume make ๐Ÿ˜›

Can someone tell me if a Baldur's Gateverse vs Dragon Ageverse thread would be against the rules or not? I think it would be but I hope it wouldn't. ๐Ÿ™

Double verse vs matches have been done before.

Yeah, but Baldur's Gate is based on DnD's Forgotten Realms, with pre-existing cities and characters. So it'll probably go against teh 'must originate from a video game' rule.

I just think it would be cool to pit DA vs its spiritual precursor.

Before the Left 4 Dead DLCs were released:

Valve - To show our appreciation to you fans out there, we're gonna make all the DLC for Left 4 Dead free.

Microsoft - *whispers in Valve's ear*

Valve - ...On second thought, we're gonna price them instead. Only PC users can have the downloads for free even though we don't have an explanation for that.

Why do you get paid to go to school?

Blame his parents.

Just got back from paying a hefty amount for some trip, don't want to hear of people getting paid to learn. Tons at my place with the same story.
