Me looking at gun: We don't exactly get guns here in the UK so forgive my reaction if it seems a little over reactive.


That must be a major bummer. I love shooting. Most universities around here have competitive teams.
Here is a picture of me shooting an air rifle in competition. We have the whole uniform, and special computers that track where our shot lands.

Nice. I have always wanted to fire a gun. I remember telling that to a friend at school and I was told that I was apparently influenced by violent video games for doing so. :S

I was like what? I wanted to try firing a gun, I didn't say I wanted to shoot up a town! At some point you're going to be curious about them.

You ever hunted animals for sport or meat? If so what is the longest range you ever hit an animal at?

Ah, crap, I forget that no-one on RpG knows, I'm a full time carer, for someone that only needs supervision, so, jobsearching, is a no-go, sadly, cause I'd much rather be filling shelves or something like that, as for learning to draw... I should get back into that, thanks buddy ^_^


When did you start doing that? ._. I had no idea. Well, that's pretty damn good of you, mate.
Drawing's good because it just takes ridiculous amounts of time to get good at, but it's relaxing. Soaks up the hours!

Applied Criminology (I'm basically batman ;P). What are you studying and what do you want to study?


That's... actually incredibly awesome. Is it more the forensic side of things, or does it focus on the psychology of criminals or some such? I must admit my complete and utter lack of knowledge on that field!
I'm studying English, Mathematics, Applied Mathematics (Mechanics), and Physics at Advanced Higher level (equivalent to A2 in England). I'm also following the Applied Mathematics (Statistics) course, but can't sit the exam as it's at the same time as Mechanics and is classified as the same subject, "Applied Mathematics", despite being a completely separate course. I've applied for a mixture of mathematics and physics courses, and currently have offers from St. Andrews for Maths and Physics and Durham for Theoretical Physics.

I'm an S6 and I live in Aberdeen. I'm doing Highers too increase my chances of getting into my HND course. Once I get in and do the full two years of the HND course, I'll then do 2 years of University of a similar course and I'll get the same degree as if I did 4 years of the university course. The ol' 2 x 2. :) I'm looking to be in the field of either immunology or a zoology. Yeah, I also spend too much money on games. I love them way to much. Been an addict since the days of PS1s and GameBoys. :)


I'm S6 too! And I know how the system works, I have quite a few friends planning to do something similar and are going to college first. What HND are you looking at doing? Immunology sounds particularly fascinating - you can make a case study of me, I'm currently on antibiotics, fighting off cellulitis :P (don't look up pictures, you just get very severe cases and it's super-mega-motherhugging-gross.)

Aye, same here! Ah, I was talking about how the quality of Pokemon games has varied from generation to generation with some friends earlier - how we got onto the topic, god knows - and we all ended up reminiscing about our first games. Loving the Daxter avatar, by the way, I have played far too much of the Jak and Daxter series over the years...

I am, yeah! I'm working toward getting my secondary education degree. And I'm studying political science/social studies. Its all clumped together in a residential college at my university. I have an earth science minor.Mila is doing well! She's a major cutie.


Let me just communicate my respect, then - it's not an easy job and requires a lot of maturity and dedication. I think you'll make an excellent teacher, from what little I know of you. Is political science specifically politics as we colloquially think of it, i.e. government/federal policy/etc., or is it a broader perspective? My auntie did "Politics" at university, but it focused more on general social interaction between people instead, so I'm curious about the way your course works in comparison. :) And I've never been quite sure what earth science is, care to educate me?
I'm glad she's doing better ^^ How old is she now?

Also, interesting note on the gun point: many people here are perturbed by the mere sight of firearms, and don't find the ban against them a bummer at all. There's a complete lack of any "gun culture" here, it's one way in which the UK and US utterly clash. I'm only slightly more comfortable with them because I was part of the Air Training Corps for about 18 months and got to shoot a few times.

Uhm, February last year, after my brothers death, not gonna go into details, I'm not trying to create a sob story :)

As for getting good, I was pretty good once, I have a friend on another site, who's letting me use one of her characters for practise, so, I kinda feel I have to get it right xD

I'm looking to do a HND in Applied Sciences at Aberdeen College. I have always been interested in Immunology. It amazes me how bizarre and weird our immune system is. It doesn't matter how healthy you are because it can still be shitty. There are heavy smokers who live to their 90s and triathletes who drop dead at 20. It can be your greatest foe or your greatest friend. It's a system in the body that just baffles me. Wow, cellulitis. That must be a bugger to have. Hope you get better. :) Don't worry about pics. You're speaking to a guy who typed "smallpox" into google images when he was 12. Wrong move. XD

I was reminiscing about old games as well with my brother, not so long ago. We started talking about the old classics. It was a beautiful trip down memory lane. Then the conversation ended with a discussion of our hatred for idiotic COD players. God I hate that game.

Thanks on the avatar. :D Jak and Daxter is my favorite franchise of all time. It's what got me fully into gaming. I have spent countless hours on that game. I even complete the whole franchise at least twice a year. I never get bored of it. :)

To me, Daxter is the funniest character ever created. The bits he says or does just cracks me up. XD

This video summarizes his best moments in Jak II. :)



EDIT: If video doesn't work for you, just go here: Daxter

I'm with Halo, I'll get my post up tomorrow while you're all asleep/at school, alongside my other RP's, it's pretty late here and I don't have enough time to chisel out a post tonight.

(I also only have one hand for tonight, damn cat wiped out my right hand... Silly hand blenders)

I actually ended up posting because pfft, who needs sleep? Not precisely of my usual quality and I'd usually try to make my intro post a little longer, but I'm tired and as our characters are all somewhat separated right now there wasn't much to work with. Goodnight to you all - excellent posts so far, guys!

Okay, I felt it was a good idea to get a post out, it's nothing amazing, but, at least it's relevant.

Loving the posts so far, gang.
