I have no idea. Every year we get a full week off in November for no adequately explained reason. Best I can figure is that the teachers all unanimously decided they didn't feel like coming to school this week. Every year.

But hey, who's complaining?
I am, as is everyone else who doesn't get this awesomeness.

Hi! It's morning here now and I feel mostly better, which is good cause I was afraid I might be getting another cold, which would have sucked a lot, espeically cause I don't get sick days.

And I'm totally complaining too. I wish the school I'm working at took off a week for no apparent reason.

It was lonely... you promised you'd write to me, but you never did... the months passed by, and I still thought of you every day, but you never called. I never got any letters from you.

So eventually, I started to lose faith... I thought you had been killed in that terrible, terrible war. Or maybe that you had forgotten about me. It's been so long, you probably found another girl over there... I never stopped loving you, but I didn't think you cared about me anymore, so welcoming you back just would have been too painful for me... I'm sorry. I'm glad you've come back home *sniff*

Hi! Final Fantasy Tactics Figurines = awesome. Speaking of figurines, any of you guys have any thoughts on that raffle idea I mentioned a couple of PV news posts ago?

Hm. Rikku. I like Rikku. Problem.

I can not donate. Like, at all. Impossible.

Any way to make concessions for those of us who can't do that?

And I like Sanji. And, um, everything and anything One Piece. Not sure about British Cafes though.

But it's the same here. I've even got five bucks and nothing to do with 'em... but I don't have a paypal account, nor a credit card or any such devise. My mom does, but for some reason, I... don't think she'll go for the donation thing.
"Irregardless" and "Over exaggerated" are NEVER CORRECT EVER because they are redundant
Regardless means "without regard", and adding "ir" on the front actually makes it a double negative; exaggerate means "to overstate" so you're literally saying "over overstate."
Example: I can not exaggerate the importance of this fact enough, regardless of how often people ignore it.

Hi! Well, if you don't have Paypal you could mail cash, money orders, or checks to my parents house in CO. That's about all I can do though, I can't really give them away for free. I mean, they are duplicates so maybe I would if I saw you in person but barring that there's shipping costs and all that kind of thing and my salary sucks.

Speaking of the raffle... If any of you guys are interested I was thinking about something. I don't want to do this for random people (too risky) but since I know you guys pretty well and trust that you won't rip me off, if there's stuff from Japan that you want (figurines, music, games, etc) and you can pay for it in some way (paypal or mailing payment to my parents) I'd be willing to look for it when ever I'm off shopping, and mail it to you. Cost would be: price of item + shipping and handling + a couple of bucks for the time it'd take me to find and mail the thing. If you told me what you wanted I could probably give you a pretty decent price estimate (and let you know if I have a decent chance of finding it or not). Not sure if I could beat the prices on ebay on anime store web sights but I could probably find stuff that you can't get on them.

Anyway, if there's some interest I'll make a thread for it.

Oh yeah, I'll try and get a bunch of RP stuff done tomorrow. Sucks only being able to get online like once a day...

Hi! Credit cards are really useful. Although, if you don't want to wait there's always international money orders.

O_O Oh man, I don't even know where to begin on stuff I'd want from Japan, and maybe after a bit of bribing I could get my moms credit card! :thumbsup:
If I can get my moms credit card, I'll definitely donate to ya Josiah!
