Popping back into the community after such a longtime is as weird as always. I've forgotten almost all of the familiar pictos from years past, and I don't want to be digging up old blogs to people who may or may not still be here or just stalking about.
Sooo, if you remember me, or would like to get to know me, by all means, drop a comment any time, any date. Kind of a blog that I feel safe un-burying in the future if I need or want to see who is around again.
Cheers to all the new people around and the update to the game! I can't get in-forest, but Hot Dang!
SCREAMS I REMEMBER YOU
We used to RP back in the day, idk if you'll remember me on this account but I used to be under the account "Pepsi~" ....Pretty sure my old char Damien was close with one of your babs, but I don't have him around at all anymore >:
So nice to see you around again though, I hope everything is well for you <3
I remember you, nice to see
Hey, I remember you! I can't
Oh! I couldn't sleep so I
@Pepsiiiiiiii! I absolutely remember you! It took a little digging through my own posts to remember just what we got up to (bad memory yay), but!!!
I believe Damien and Isa had had a little something going? Or was that my ooc?? Either way, shame he's not around. Buut, I think I had been getting to know Nix, so maaaybe.. Have you been here this whole time?
@Ammy, goodness. Hello! I don't recall if I've ever met Gretai, Morgen, or Stria, but Talla's bio- especially her relations- are ringing so many bells it nearly hurts. Super glad to see you around still!
@W0lf, your name sounds so familiar, and your picto does, too, but?? I'm drawing almost a total blank. Did you do a massive clean out of your blog past?
.
I did. Used to play a deer
I remember you, welcome back!
Welcome back.
Yesss Isa sounds familiar I
my old account comments make me cringe sigh@W0lf, ah yes! Tieff! I don't
@Archangelus, glad to be remembered! That wonderful design of Silence is so memorable, but I couldn't place your username. Did a little peek through some of your blogs, and you're Witcher's user. Gotcha now (:
@Vee, hello, stranger <3 Has all been well? My memory is more than fuzzy, but.. Let me skim through your updates...
Oh..February.. Rip my heart out, why don't ya.
@Pepsi <3 Yup! Little Isa. It has been years. Ew..whole years..again. Do yourself a favor and go look at 2012 in Damien's bio. Five years can seem so much like 'just yesterday', then you remind yourself of, well, yourself from back then. Cringe-worthy, I agree.
.
Hey there. I sure remember
I remember you
Ahh it's nice to see you
Hope you stay. <3
@Jin, hey yourself. (: I've
All in all, as I've been told, "We get what we need, not what we want." My boat could be sinking, but I'm floatin' well enough right now, you know?
pleasetakecareofSao;;<3@Kaoori, I'm really glad to see you're still around, even if it is harder with life going on. Prays for your pupper. Has she managed to avoid surgery?
@Evern, I can't say that your names sound unfamiliar, but I don't think we interacted much? Looking through your ooc blog, Alice's name is familiar, though there were..two Alices, those years ago, right? Also, probably complete coincidence, but Connor's blog blue-screened my computer. Must have some awesome coding in there. c|
I'll be poking around for a while, but without being able to get in-forest and a certain lack of rp skills/ties, I'll probably be lurking more than anything else. Definitely left something to be desired in my years here, both away and active.
.
It's been a while! So very
'Ello, Fishy
.
Being going alright, moving
What've you been up to? It's been ages! (And you probably already told somebody earlier in the thread..)
You're too kind. I'm glad
So far she has; she's starting to put some weight on her leg, and only hop if she's running. It's very hard to keep her activity low. She's a very high energy dog and we've been doing her best. So I'm hoping she won't need surgery.
Thank you for asking, it means a lot!
Fisheh, Sounds like you get
It has been ages, as far as the Internet goes, lol. I've been recently displaced from my job, buuuut, I needed to find a new one anyway. I was running myself into the ground at my last one, in more than one way. I definitely miss the friends I made there, especially those I never hung out with outside of work. It's really weird going back as a customer- feels super taboo, you know.
I'm currently looking for something new, and attending classes to help me figure out what I'd like to do for my next occupation. Thinkin' heavy machinery, or warehouse, where the work is second to the team's family-like interactions. That's a big thing I miss, the socialization that my former job environment gave me.
Kaaaaoori, <33
Has she had another visit, since it's been over the week your vet advised? What kind of doggo is she to be so high energy?
.
The vet said to continue
She's a mix- she's mostly husky, but we did a DNA test for fun and she's literally 10 other breeds too, some terrier, collie and hound and shiba inu thrown in there for good measure.
Oh my god what? I have no
Well there was me and Jackstrauss in terms of Alice names, yes! But that was player names. I can't remember another deer named Alice. We never talked much but I saw you around. c: Alice used to look like this.
I'm here, where's the party?
My treat tonight is going to
I completely feel you. Last February I left my job after things started going south and my team was being held to rising standards and being blamed for things not under our control. It's a hard thing to do, but getting away from the day-to-day stress is so helpful. Not to say that trying to find a new job isn't stressful lol;;
That sounds like a great realm to explore! I did logistic management for the summer and there are a lot of job opportunities in shipping and receiving, warehouse management, etc. People will never stop needing goods transported!
@Kaoori, .. I made myself sad
@Evern, don't worry. Well-known fact that my computer sucks walnuts :'D Coincidence, no doubt.
Ah, Jack, I remember that Alice. BUT! That's the Alice I remember! That picture! I'm glad she came into a unique design, it's very adorable!
Wait, what. Her and Morgul? How/When did that happen?
@Quad <3 Long time, dear! The party is.. Uh, well, here, I suppose. (:
Did a quick look-see through your blogs, but unless I missed something?? I don't see too much going on for you? What the hey, what are you up to!
@Fishers wot.iwanttopetacapy.. That's a good treat. That's a real good treat. Were you allowed to take pictures??
I hear that like Big Ben's bong. Finding a job is a job. Except it doesn't pay.. And is equally as frustrating. I had a similar standard at my job, where the bar we set for ourselves felt more like a two ton weight that we had to hold up to an impossible level and corporate was just sitting atop it like they were 'helping', adding to the problem.
Yea, and it's super similar to what I'm used to- retail freight and all the back-end stuffs. I'm not much for a managerial position, since I'd rather be comfortable in my own lane decisions, instead of overseeing everyone else. If I could ask, what was it like for you?
.
I know, not a whole lot on
Hey there! It's good to see
There's a small zoo that has
(pictures included)
What is it about companies that makes them think doing something like that is a good idea? Increasing responsibilities, holding up the bar even higher, not increasing pay, and then being surprised when people start leaving.. smh I swear, dude.. I swear
I was doing load creation, so scheduling pick and drop appointments, and monitoring/updating mostly. It was fine work, the most frustrating aspects were when our drop locations were 48+ hours behind and when Receiving at new drops wouldn't tell us about special requirements (reflective vests, special appointment numbers that they assumed I'd magically know despite them not giving it to me??, etc.) at their yard. Some days we'd randomly have like 12x more loads than normal that I needed to schedule, and I was the only load creator/scheduler so I was on my own! Usually though I was able to manage quite well and also work on additional projects such as checking drivers' insurance.
Ahh, didn't see this till
Here she is:
@Quad, I'm really glad to
@Honey, Hey hey! (: I've been better, but I'm in a situation that both could have been avoided and is not altogether bad for me. Need to get my butt in gear, but some of the classes I'm taking at the HRC are having me think about what I want to be when I grow up. Looking into maybe doing some training or schooling, but..mmm. I need to start makin' tracks and pick something to do.
Is Honey still active? Her and Isela's bios are..glaringly different, lol.
What has you goin' all over the country?
.
Splittin' these up, because
@Fsssh, !!! Oooo, those two pics of the durr lying down are great! I might use those for a reference some time! That pose would make cute sigs... I hope you took video of the snoot booping! That sounds really cute, especially if she let y'all boop more than once. That white wolf looks so much like the female I got to see at the zoo close to me. It's really something to get to interact and say hi to wolves when it's literally just you and a friend at almost sun down. The wolf enclosure is like, not even in the zoo, so they're exposed to everyone who walks in, so they don't hang out in the front of their enclosure, like, EVER. It was soooo cool to see them. Especially just the two of us. The white female came out to say hi and let us take pretty pictures of her. The male was..sadly, losing his mind and utterly bored- wearing an already worn path in the dirt by the inner fence. ...did you get to boop tiger snoots, too?
Well, as we were constantly reminded (by my awesome supervisor, because I take things too seriously), that we're very replaceable. Which is totally true, especially in the retail world. So, why pay someone more when they do as they're told because they need the money this horrible job gives and they do a good job so they don't lose it? And they're not surprised..at least not from my experience. They expect high turn-over, at least the supervisors that have been around a while do, and they see it coming. So just.. ugh. REALLY trying to avoid retail work as I'm looking.
Oh ew. Being on your own? I suppose that's a job that could definitely end up with too many cooks in the kitchen, eh? You sound like a middle man, instead of dead last on the totem pole, so twice as many people/company-doings to keep track of. I did all I could just to keep a single store's departments up to date and communicating with me. Did you like your job? Sounds like there wasn't much to show for the important work you did? (I'm results-driven and like to seeee what I've done~)
@Kaoori Aw, does she just have a white snoot, or is she an old pupper? Looks like she's super loved with that comfy harness. She has some very knowing eyes, holy moly. Does have, like a husky tail or something? For being mostly husky, she doesn't look it ._.
.
She turned 7 this year, so
She has a husky tail but it could be those other breeds too. Her mom was a pure husky, I was told. I'll probably never know because she's a rescue!
Yup! Her and Morgul have been
Thanks friend. I like her new design too. I think it made her become her own self again. She's always evolving and living on, even when life makes me busy.
It's lovely to see you around again. I'm glad you remember some things here and there about me. <3
How's life been?
Oh hey, I remember you! I'm

Quote:@Honey, Hey hey! (:
Ah yeah, I feel you. From what you said, it sounds like a similar situation to what I had this past fall university wise. I had to switch my major after doing some deep thinking on what I wanted to do haha. I'm hoping things will work out for you! I'm sure you'll find something that sparks your interest <:
Haha they really are! The last time I was in the forest must have been the previous Christmas while I was visiting my parents. I have a Mac laptop, so I haven't been able to get into the forest. Really looking forward to the new update when the game will be Mac compatible! But concerning my characters, Isela kinda took over the role as my main, so HF is in retirement haha. I would still get on her from time to time though just to see an old familiar face :]
A couple years ago I left my home state, Indiana, to work in Yellowstone National Park over the summer before moving to the University of Montana. My family is now scattered across the country, so vacations have me going all over the place haha!
