    I just spent the first part of my afternoon staring at the sun.

    As one does.

      It’s a pretty good thing to do.

    I'm desperate for book recommendations.

    And for once I need fantasy, not sci-fi.

    I need the grand, sweeping epic fantasy that everyone is talking about but I haven't read yet.

    Please help me.

    Also, which book is Kaz Brekker (if that's his name...) from again? Everyone keeps talking about him...and so I'm curious.

      Piranesi is so cute and so sweet and so...I cried. But I cry over everything.

      "That everyone's talking about" immediately rules out anything I'd suggest. :P But, I'll give it a shot anyways: The Riyria Revelations by Michael J Sullivan. Medieval fantasy with a solid political conspiracy throughout and one of my favorite non-Brandon fantasy series.

      I actually just re-read The Goose Girl (well, technically listened to it) because I was bored. It's a great book.

      Respect🫡

    So I'm apparently a pretty good shot with a shotgun.

    And a rifle.

      Bookworms are surprisingly good shots once they get used to holding a weapon.

      Makes sense that a dragon would be even better

    This science conference I'm at has an expo, kind of like Dragonsteel, for those who know what that was like.

    And a bunch of the booths were book vendors.

    And so, behold my final book haul:

    Here's the nice thing; half of these I got free.

    And the other half summed up to $35.

    For what would have easily been over a hundred normally, I think that's pretty good.

      ...The hard part was figuring out how to fit it all into my backpack and suitcase...

      I think I got it to work...I hope it does.

    I gasped when I read that. If this isn't confirmation that the last Shard's intent is based around Wisdom or Intellect, I'm going to flip.

    Avatar stood, unmoving. "I don't even need to do anything, do I?" he said. "I just wait for time to kill you. Then that wound takes over, and I get my soul back. And yours along with it. Your real soul, not that decrepit husk you tote around."

    Well, I just got accepted into BYU.

      Yep!

      Unless plans change during or after my mission, it's where I want to go.

      What's your major?

      I'm not going to a church college most likely, but luckily my college of choice has a robust institute and large LDS population, which are in my opinion, the best parts of BYU

    4. The Bookwyrm

      Right now, probably Astronomy or Astrophysics.

    Wait, it's your birthday?

      Yes.

      It's beautiful, isn't it?

      Nothing fancy.

      Nothing fancy.

      I want a Chakobsa dictionary now...it sounds like a beautiful language. Conlangs are fun.

      That would be a lot of fun!

    So here I am, sitting at an airport terminal waiting for my flight, instead of being at school.

    Why is that?

    Almost a year ago I posted an SU about doing well at a local science fair. I was one of the medalists. Then I went to the state competition. And medaled again.

    Well, because I medaled at state, I was invited to a three day conference for these winners of state science fairs across the country.

    So yeah.

    First time going through an airport alone; luckily this one's small. I made it, now I'm just waiting.

      Was this the regeneron conference?

      No, it's the American Junior Academy of Science conference, in conjunction with the American Association for the Advancement of Science conference.

    What's your opinion on Sharders who joined later than you?

    @InfiniteInsanity EDIT: For the record, Insa was the one who put that there, on my computer, without my permission, so she could come back later and ping me again here.

    Hey, I've seen you around. Though I don't think I've ever interacted with you.

    Happy Birthday anyway!
