Archaeowolf

i'm just taking it one step at a time!

I have had awful depression for several days and i haven't done anything but stay in bed and watch bleach (I know) on netflix, haha.

Today I finally left the house and went on a 1hr walk, so it's small progress... I feel a bit better after getting out of the house.

Haha, ok, I'll play.

 

I'm in a class that I'm very under-qualified for.

 

I'm currently in a Microbiology class filled with students who are about to start working as EMTs, nurses, etc... Because most of the students are already working in healthcare, the teacher uses a lot of terms that most of us understand.

After class introductions, I realized that I am the only one not coming from a science background or working in healthcare. Everyone has taken Chemistry, Biology, Anatomy+Physiology, etc.... and assumes everyone else has.

Not me! I hadn't taken a single science class since high school until this winter, when I took Oceanography. This is my first health science class since ... errr.. almost 10 years ago. Maybe 8, to be honest. I am terrified. To catch up to the students, I study every single thing we've learned every night and I have scored A's on everything so far. I have to put in a lot more work than I should, though. On the first day, I didn't even know what I a microbe is (an organism that can't be seen without magnification), and the class is literally called MICROBiology. D'oh.

It's ok, I'm doing well now, though. Everyone has to start somewhere.

Update - I've done great in the class unsure if I'm going to make a B or an A because I don't have my final exam grades back yet. All the daily studying paid off!

You know, the Bachelor's requirement isn't really a "job requirement"...unless it is. lol That's to satisfy immigration for visa purposes. They're strict on who they let into the country for living purposes...they prefer people with degrees and an education, I guess.

That is so weird to hear this from you now, I just spoke with the friend yesterday and he was like "If you're serious, we can make this work." Looks like you're right - I was definitely ignorant to that. I'm still gonna stick around here for a while since I really want to complete my BS/MS combined program, but by then I will have qualifications to work in a much needed healthcare role so I will do that here for a while.

Man, I have a family friend who was hired to transfer to a station in Japan as a public affairs type of folk. She found a place for her dog to stay and packed up the apartment. She was supposed to have her flight to Japan this week, but the new executive order that halted all new federal hiring caused her to lose that job. I feel really bad for those affected negatively by that.

Oh, god, trying to think of something that isn't like... pokemon or sailor moon. I just don't remember, but I DO remember I was terrified of cartoon network (channel 17!) because my mom accidentally flipped to that channel when I was like 8 and there were anime characters kissing.

One summer later, I stayed at my grandparents' house. I went into the living room and put a blanket over both the television and myself and watched things like Trigun, FLCL... it felt so liberating!! If my grandma knew, she would have killed me. I wish it still felt like that. Now I just watch anime every week with my boyfriend and my cat.

Thinking about it! My friend, native to Japan, has invited me to join him in Fukuoka to teach ... but by law, I have to finish my bachelor's first. I thought I was going to be done with that in 2 years but I'm signed up to do a 5 year bachelor's/master's program now .. Er... so not for a while, if at all haha. What are you gonna do there?

I feel a little scared! I start at a new college next week to study to be an art teacher and I interview for a job tomorrow. I've never had a long time job because I have severe anxiety, but I hope it will be ok..

Do you guys know if there is anyway to delete my account?

Welcome to 2016 everyone!! Not that I am from the future. not that i've been here for months already ... wait .. i've said too much.

resolutions ... I don't usually make them haha, but some of my general hopes are to continue at college, continue making good grades.. I'm trying to switch to a better college in my state and finish my anthropology degree.

more anime related , I'm hoping to tone up a little bit again for my Sailor Mars costume before katsucon!! i've been having too much yummy bread......

What do you study in college, trade, home-study, plan to study, etc... or what field are you in or interested in?

Some content for people with allergies or dietary restrictions would be good. I know it can be dangerous for people with Celiacs disease

i win because you've activated my trap card ...

Hi all. I wanted to see if there was anyone else like me who was dealing with some mental illness things like depression, anxiety, etc.. Lately i have been feeling really alone because I have agoraphobia. ( it's hard for me to go to places I don't know well and there is a lot of pressure on me because i'm not able to work a traditional job.

Thank you so much!

Haha, I do have one actually. People who think they are too good for pop music. It doesn't have to be your favorite, but maaaaan.. you must be boring. nothing is funnier to me than an MMD with some pop song. or like, people who dress up in cosplay and make videos of themselves dancing to taylor swift songs. it just cracks me up

Oh man, I just cannot find it on this page for the life of me! I even command-F'd it.

Oh, hello again, I have one last new person question haha! I was wondering how one would be able to change the text under their avatar? For example , yours says "Evil Overlord"

I see this is an old post, but a few have recently commented already so I hope it's ok. Mine is Archaeowolf, a combination of archaeology and wolf .. I study anthropology in college with a great interest in the relevant field of archaeology and I adore wolves. I think they are so beautiful!

Welcome to the forum, pleasure to meet you~

 

So I take it you like wolves?

thank you!! yes I do funny enough, I do not like Huskies, the dog breed. I had one once as my first service dog and she was evil. What animals do you think are the cutest?

Welcome to Anime Forums! Hope you enjoy your stay

 

Have any favorite anime?

thanks so much!! right now i am really enjoying yu-gi-oh season zero, but i don't know of a lot of animes so i am open to any suggestion of anything you think is good.

Hello and welcome to the forum Archaeowolf , Yuuki desu , I hope you enjoy it here

 

Do you enjoy any particular genre of Anime ?

Thank you so much! hmmm... what do you think the best genre is? I have no idea!! i haven't seen very many anime at all. i feel like psychological horror would be interesting, if i knew any anime of that genre.

hello everyone! I joined this site in hoping I can make some new friends , i dont have very many i can talk to about anime hehe. Im 21 and I live in Baltimore to study Anthropology. I really like paleoanthropology and would love to be a professor in that field one day.

let's see.. some facts about me.

• I have a cat that looks like Hitler which is very weird because I am jewish.
  
• I used a site JUST like this when I was a child but Im not sure what the name was .. hmm. but it had a chat I liked to go on and roleplay (very badly)
  
• i love the taste of artificial sugar, like in diet coke. what's your terrible pleasure?
  
• almost every relevant person i hang out with and love deeply and live near today, i initially met online for example, my long term boyfriend and his family
  
• i love animals and have been helping in veterinary surgery since i was a child. i'm really good with medical things
  
• to this day, this is my absolute favorite exchange in anime (i find it hilarious because im egyptian):
