One of the things I detest is the rain. Ever since I had to start walking through the weather to get from class to class, the rain has been one of my worst enemies. It doesn't add beauty like snow does. It doesn't add a breeze like a wind does. All it does is make me and what I am carrying, wet. Soaking wet. Honestly, if I could just walk through my years without getting wet, things would be that much more fantastic. But then I started thinking, it needs to rain. Sure I hate it so much, but it is necessary for plants to grow. Yeah, it's a nuisance, but I'll get used to it. I'll try to avoid it as much as I can, but there will be those nights (like tonight) where I have to wade through it. The same can be applied to those things we don't really want to encounter. Yeah, for the most part, it needs to happen, so just grit your teeth and move on. Things will never always go your way. Just appreciate those moments in which you can enjoy and possibly you will come to appreciate that which you don't like, like watching the rainbow after the rain.

Exactly this. I appreciate all they have done. I don't have the levels for it (and I never will) but it's awesome to see these skills get some updates.

Can't say I really don't know you. 3/10

Look at that, I've already lost track of when the new boards went up. It doesn't help when I just woke up from watching Heroes for a few hours on a lazy night at college. Something I've been trying to understand is the phrase, "Live and Learn." What does that actually mean? When I think about it, it's a saying that means we live and pretty much we make mistakes. From these mistakes, we need to learn. Another saying is "History repeats itself." We don't want to commit the same mistakes we have made already, or else what is the point of living? At least it'd be a very dull life... But does this saying not have something tagged along with it? I've recently been using it as an excuse to my mistakes in life. I don't think I am justified in doing this. I yell at a friend for not knowing how to do something, "live and learn." Wow, I feel like I just tossed them aside like yesterdays old eggs. This is not something I should be striving for, rather, to avoid. Don't be using this phrase as a crutch, but a guideline. Sometimes the lesson could be a pricey one, so learn as much as you can from the lessons learned in life.

Here is a useful and light topic I found on the internet for why some words are taboo. There is even a little quiz at the end. :D http://www.englishclub.com/esl-forums/viewtopic.php?f=192&t=38114 It might help you find your answer. It's in there.

Now that was harsh. 2 minutes...haha 1

I remember a few names and images here and there when I travel the boards. I only really know certain people though. I blame me leaving TET and needing a new place to have fun for my reason visiting Forum Games more. 468

Welcome everyone! :)

Welcome. You've come into my lair. Let me be the first to say, boogady boogady boo, on the new forums. hehe, I've always loved that phrase. Come to think about it, there will be a lot of firsts that come with the new forum. First person to post a rate this, first person to blah blah, you understand the point. The question is, does it matter? Not like you can say in a few years that, "I was the X person to do X." It's not logical to do that. What should be happening, is community. Having fun, enjoying others, meeting new people. We just made a transfer from an older forum to a community suite forum. That's not cheap, but to have one of the best communities, every penny was worth it. Go out there and make use of the new space. Let your images come alive using the new gallery. Let your words speak forth with the new blog feature. I certainly hope to see this forum live with users very soon. Just a word, my blogs will be short to medium length of words I'd like to say to those who read these words. Take them with a grain of salt, but add your comments as well. I'd love to hear your input as well. :)
