not everyone. There are people who live in different timezones

Rejoice! Lisbeth is back at it again! The new volume of Stormlight Archive is coming!

I didn't hear the sirens and missed it I'm not sure whether it was because I live outside the city or just there are no around.

My wisdom tooth is trying to drive me insane. I feel you. My fear is not being kicked out of uni itself. It would be the knowledge that I lost three years of my life - and that it's my fault for failing. It would be the shame of looking people closest to me in the eyes and admiting that I wasted last three years and it's entirely my fault. Ultimately my greatest fear is admitting to failure. I can handle failing, I can't handle admitting it. But right now my plan is to go ask deputy dean some stuff - first of all, he was the one who told me I could request the semester without enrollment. If that doesn't work out, then I ask him what my options are. I know it's possible to be expelled and then to restart the studies right away - actually people did that when they run out of their limit of dean's leave and all was fine - but that was before the recent reform; right now universities have too many students and they are not so laidback anymore, trying to get rid of as many people as they can. To be honest, I thought of changing universities many times in the recent years - I've got friends in the other one, also studying IT. Mine studies is mostly a shitshow while their is less so... but I have already Invested three years of my life. I don't really face being homeless or any of that stuff - so my situation is pretty great, I think. It's just... I passed most of the stuff I failed last year and I thought I could really make it. The winter semester would be pretty hard and unforgiving but if I did it without failing anything I would be pretty much straightened out for the last two semesters. But it seems they don't want to give me a chance. Well, we'll see about that.

Not a day later I find out that they do expel me. Which is weird since after my two semester's of dean's leave I should be entitled to a semester-without-enrollment (a "ghost" semester). I just found out that my request for one was dismissed - which is weird since I consulted that with deputy dean last semester. I'm... I'm afraid.

Reread the beginning of Hero Of Ages then. I did and that's why I'm sure.

Brandon keeps refering to Scadrial as Earth analogue, so...

source And now to unfollow the thread... Oh wait, I can't

I come here to answer OP and then I see @Calderis linking my own thread. Yeah, I think I don't have anything to add I didn't say there...

I've been there. No. That's a lie. I am here. I'm not sure what can I tell you or what advice to give - because that's something I'd really want to know, too. I'm not sure how people like us can fix ourselves; every time I say that this time I won't put stuff away for later or that I will keep up with material or some other lie. Then I go and don't do it. I'm not sure what's wrong with me. People will say "well, just don't procrastinate" or some other stuff like that. But that's not how it works. We know that. I also had exams - and well, I hate to admit it, but most of them I passed by dumb luck. I got a question I studied for. Some... I didn't show up for one of them. I was there, at the university, revising at the last minute - that's a lie again. I was falling asleep over somebody's notes because the night before I pretended to study instead of sleeping. Then I didn't go to that exam. It felt absolutely the worst. My mind was not a nice place to be then. If I screw up anything else from that point on, I will be kicked out of university. And even that does not motivate me enough. Point is... point is, there is no solution. No solution I know of. You just have to grit your teeth really hard and do it anyway, despite your mind telling you it's pointless and that you will fail anyway. It's useless and I will fail anyway and that whole pile of horsedung "well at least I tried" is one big fat lie; there's only one thing you can do - and I'm sorry I sound so cheap - and it's powering through. Even without reason to keep fighting, with knowledge it's all for nothing. You have to power through. I won't say I believe in you or some other cheap thing like that, because somebody believing in me does nothing except I feel worse when I fail anyway. No. But I do understand how you feel. I wish I could hug you. Please, keep fighting. Not for me, not for yourself, not for the fight itself. Just do it. For no reason. Fight. And if you want to talk, I'm always here.

Beyond is beyond cosmere. I heavily doubt we will ever get to know more about Beyond.

and that's what happened. We've got a paralell novel with Hoid in the background.

IIRC when Brandon talked about that paralell story he did not explicitly mention that it will be Hoid story.

That paralell to Mistborn thing is what Secret History is.

C'mon, it was 4am! I went to sleep! Also, the curve was meh. I gotta keep looking.

When - at 4 am - you're trying to fit a curve to Heightenings Breath amounts.

Are you sure you wanted to post that here? Everyone else: I am currently combing that thread to compile a list of questions and answers; that way it will be easier to find and we will know which WoBs are currently looked for.

Hold on... Is Mata Nui a combination of three Shards of Unity, Duty and Destiny? But why he has only two magic systems, elemental powers and Kanohi?

You surely mean Energetic Protodermis?

BTW, @Pagerunner, I know you're searching for Mask of Investiture (I wonder who forged that Kanohi though) but you should really add "discoverer of harmonium" to your title

I wouldn't read too much into that; With a half a dozen planets Hoid visits it's completely possible he just didn't keep track of what year is it on Roshar - a task which is harder since Rosharan year does not corespond to standard cosmere year (which is Earth year, like on Scadrial).

Pay attention to what else Rock says about that god.

That was something that also surprised me when Brandon talked about doing Hemalurgy on spren. If spren can be spiked, then there's surely a way to spike a planet.

There's also WoP in one of the Edgedancer threads. It's here:
