I know I'm probably okay—the last time I spent an inordinate amount of time wondering if I was making a million mistakes that no one cared to tell me about, my supervisor said that he had trouble thinking of things for me to improve on—but I still can't help it.

Jondesu Posted March 5, 2017 Report Share Posted March 5, 2017 Here's something random and very weird to me. Last night, I had a vivid and engaging dream that had a scary number of details that were entirely accurate. It started with me planning to go to some event or conference (my brain never filled in the detail of what) that Brandon had also decided to go to, and somehow, he contacted me and invited me to spend the night at his house before heading up to the event together. I think about this point I was actually beginning to realize that this wasn't real, but it felt very real except for the fact that large portions of time just skimmed by without me realizing it (but in a dream, you're rarely aware of that happening, and I was aware of it). Then, on the way up to whatever event it was, he stopped for a signing at a little bookstore, but there was hardly anyone there, and the only person I saw ask a question before me asked whether there was a bisexual character in the Stormlight Archives, to which Brandon responded "Shallan", and I commented that he'd already told us that in a previous event. Which is totally true, basically. Then, I started looking around for a book to buy and have him sign, since I hadn't brought my copy of The Way of Kings (which in real life is the only book by him I own in a physical form), but the only book I could find of his was Elantris, and I really wanted to get Arcanum Unbounded or White Sand. Failing to find those, though, I went back and picked up Elantris, and took it to him to sign, and asked him the same question I had posed in the Ultimate Questions thread: "Have any Shards been shattered without Odium being involved?" Unfortunately, my dream ended about there and he didn't answer. So yeah, very weird to me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A Budgie Posted March 7, 2017 Report Share Posted March 7, 2017 So I was on the train today, and there were two people reading Sanderson books. Two. I don't think I've even seen one before. One was HoA, the other a Stormlight (I only saw the back cover so I'm not sure which one). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you guys remember Warbreaker girl? Well, turns out she was 2 years my senior and has left school So I probably won't get a chance to speak to her. But there is that random train person who reads on the train that I can convert! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Friend: *facepalm* It's amusing when I recognise people's books. There used to be this one old man who always took the same train who would always be reading a murder mystery. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye, I know how you feel. It does get kind of embarrassing >> There's always this one girl who somehow can read, standing up, on the train (I would get sick), every day, I swear it's a new book. And I think I'll recommend sanderson to her 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Honor Spren Posted March 7, 2017 Report Share Posted March 7, 2017 (edited) Did you know? Your birth order affects your personality! If you're the first child, then you're more likely to be a natural leader, a high achiever, bossy and a follower of the rules. If you're the middle child, then you're more likely to be flexible, easy going, secretive, and generous. If you're the youngest child, then you're more likely to be a risk taker, outgoing, competitive, and bored easily. If you're an only child, then you're more likely to be close to your parents, dependable, demanding, and sensitive If you were orphaned at birth and raised by your aunt and/or uncle, then you're more likely to be whiny, have a good relationship with a mysterious old man, gifted with supernatural powers, and the chosen one.

TwiLyghtSansSparkles Posted March 7, 2017 Report Share Posted March 7, 2017 If you are a female orphan, expect a handsome and mysterious love interest to show up shortly after you discover your powers. If you are a male orphan, your love interest won't show up until your heroic quest has been going on for a while. Expect your best friend's little sister to suddenly develop a personality (that just so happens to be everything you want in a girl) around the time you enter your sixth year at school. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Left Posted March 7, 2017 Report Share Posted March 7, 2017 So the person that my work hired to be the aquatics director, my boss, is now no longer the aquatics director. I don't know if he got fired or quit, I just got a text from his assistant saying that we again don't have a director. So on the one hand, I've outlasted two bosses and gotten a raise. On the other hand, we lifeguards are pretty much back to having to be our own bosses with little management support. I'm really not sure what to think or feel. I'm kind of hoping that while we don't have a manager Corporate will stop breathing down our necks a bit, because its been getting ridiculous. I just want to be able to lifeguard in peace without having random fake drowning drills and not being allowed to sit with crossed legs. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Me and another guard have joked about doing it together, because as far as we can tell it's not the hardest job. I doubt we minors with no college would be allowed to have the position, but it would be cool! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oversleep Posted March 8, 2017 Report Share Posted March 8, 2017 ... i just realized something (I have recently read first Alcatraz book). See, Alcatraz breaks things, right? He also BREAKS THE FOURTH WALL. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

See, Alcatraz breaks things, right? He also BREAKS THE FOURTH WALL. He tecnically doesn't, as the "you" he adresses during the book is not actually the reader in the real world but another fictional person existing within the same fictional world as Alcatraz and reading a fictional book with text that just happens to be identical to the real book you are reading right now. (I know, sementics but they seem to be in the spirit of the book. ) Edited March 8, 2017 by Edgedancer 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
