Umm, hi guys =)

 

Miss me yet? :P

 

I really am alive, I promise. I've just... I don't even know. School's insane, life's insane.

 

But I am alive. *wiggles toes* See?

 

So, what's up with you all?

[Dwynwen]

Mia!  *Pounces*  It's good to see you!

 

Things are going okay with me.  What is it about school and life that are insane for you?

[Maria]

Well, I'm in my last week of my first semester of teaching practice. I've been more at school this semester than I was there all the previous years combined. Or that's what it feels like, anyway. But Wednesday is the last exam, the glory of glories, I shall be on my Christmas holiday!

 

What's happened around here since I've been away? Anything fun? Are you enjoying your Keeping duties? I hope the office wasn't too messy when you got the keys. I simply had no time to clean. *shifty eyes*

[Kara_J]

Hey Maria!

 

Good to see you back, albeit for a brief visit!  :-*

[Elgee]

Hi there Maria ! *huggles*

 

How are you enjoying the teaching practice?

[Maria]

The teaching practice was good, thanks LG. Very challenging, but loads of fun. Definitely convinced me that this is what I want to do with my life =)

[Elgee]

I'm glad to hear you're enjoying it  :D

[Nephitess]

Hey!! Good to see ya Mia. :D

[Jaydena]

*snuggles*

And this person is supposed to be my best friend? Ptshaw! That's all!

 

Hey Nephi! Jade! *hugs* Good to see you guys, too!

[Dwynwen]

I really enjoy being Keeper.  I like the perspective of focusing on the Tower as a whole and becoming involved with everyone, not just one Ajah.  Plus, I like working closely with Mother, since our personalities complement each other well.

 

Don't worry, the office wasn't too bad.  ;)

[Maria]

I'm glad, Dwyn! It really is a wonderful job. And working with Mother is definitely a perk *g* (I had to say that, I know she's around here somewhere, listening in :P)

[JenniferL]

No, I'm not.

[Maria]

Right. My bad. Obviously.

[Dwynwen]

She's omnipresent, you know.  I caught her stalking me outside my window last night.  Oh, wait...that was just Jimmy.

Or me trying to figure out what kind of surgery you had ;D

Hmm....shoulder surgery?

[Dwynwen]

I'll PM you. 

[mcs0083]

Yep I got it :D

Back to business then.

*waves at everyone*
