Why the heck not? Last time I said I'd give 'pseudo-honesty' and this time I'll give selective honesty.

What's the biggest problem on your mind at the moment?

Oh uh, UCSC finally got all my transcripts and the financial aid offer is back up...and now I'm trying to calculate my needs/budget to determine whether I should accept the loan offers. It's not much money for loans since I'm getting my fees and tuition covered and all that, but I'm just not sure of my budget. A lot depends on my housing assigment since I decided to apply to live in their transfer community on-campus. That's my biggest dilemma atm, which isn't too bad tbh.

Did that answer your question or did you mean something more personal?

Well that's fairly personal already, isn't it?
You answered what I asked. :p

That of a journalist, or anthropologist. I do get the urge to influence/change the hearts and minds of people, but it's never in a certain direction. I just want to offer people different perspectives (like mine sometimes, naturally), or even just offer them the right catalyst to broaden their perspectives. It's all about shifting the way you see things to kind of open up different ideas and take away some of the black & white certainty about things.

Also I don't really like going in somewhere and trying to change the makeup of the situation. I like to observe patterns and dynamics and see how they change over time, without my interference. I find that kind of change extremely interesting. Plus my writing style tends to be dispassionate/dry like a journalist, the depersonalized style always suited me more.

If you knew guild fall would happen would you warn Mahz to pay the servers on time? It might prevent some new people from joining, and stuff would be different. Except like you choose this after everything that happened to this point

You mean who? That's so tough. I'm discounting Sophi because that's the super obvious one, plus she's somewhat retired from RPG. So I'd have to say....Man this is tough. I'm pretty darn close with Elendra, Jorick, Scribz, Idle, Smiral, and there's a ton more I really like. I'd have to say it's about dead even between Smiral and Idle at this point.

Well, thanks. I can be really cold/unfriendly, and even downright nasty. But I try to be friendly for the most part.

I'm trying to figure this out right now. Do I want to pick up French again? Go with muh heritage and do Italian? I was thinking of learning Mandarin and Portugese, so it's between those two. I'll have to see how my schedule works because I'll be taking classes in one of those, or both.

Without a doubt I would tell Mahz. We've had some good times in nuguild and I think things are less of a downer than they used to be, but it's missing something major: all of oldguild history. The creative loss is pretty staggering from what I've seen. Also a lot of people I like have one foot out of the door because of it. When nuguild first came about, I also had one foot out the door and I didn't care about w/e was gone, but the more I've seen people mourn it, the more I realize just how much was lost.
