Hey people! Sorry haven’t been online since forever. Long story, I’ve been busy. I’ve been working and writing intensely since I left. I’ve only taken the past two summers off. I spent them both in the US. The summer of 2016 was some in Philadelphia. I stayed with family friends, and it was really fun. Then, I spent the summer of 2017 in New York City. I spent the summer at the St. Regis, and it was heavenly. I made a lot friends, quite a few of which I’ll see at university. This leads me to the following. I’ve been super, super busy with college applications these past few months. Something truly life changing happened this Thursday at 7:00 PM EST. At exactly that time, I opened my laptop. It was Friday, 4:00 AM in Dubai. I clicked on “Application Status Update”.


An acceptance letter from Columbia University.


I am truly honored to have such an opportunity, and I wanted to say thank you for providing me with support when I needed it. I’ll try to be more active on here, seeing that I’m less busy right now.

Right now, I’m celebrating the acceptance in Madrid with family.

How’s everyone been doing? Any major changes?
So Cool. Glad to hear that you are doing so well.
Very nice to hear from you again.

Happy Holidays CDR!!
I sent your cards on Friday!!

I bought a cute LED string of lights to hang my CDR cards on.
I think only 2-3 are non CDR. I don’t send cards anymore so I think we got crossed off some lists because I used to get quit a few. Oh well.

Good morning, roommates!
Daughter is on holidays. So of course she had to get up at 6 am. :eek: Some of her classmates are coming over tomorrow for a “Princess Dance Show” I’m organizing (not my idea). :eek: :eek: Wish I had a shell to hide in. :D
How’s everyone?
Good afternoon, Lena! :)
You have a Cold Dark Room to hide in.
Behind the jellyfish tank is good.
I'm fine, thanks, wifey still asleep and Tidgy having lunch.
Life's Good! :D

Well done, my friend, that's wonderful news.
Hope to hear more from you over the holiday season.
All busy getting ready for the holiday season here, wifey and I are well and having a great time as usual, Tidgy is still a wonderful pest and is in the TFO calendar for a third successive year.
Life's Good! :D

Morning :)
I carefully placed her in the tub:p
I’m not sure if I will be able to lift her next year o_O
She hasn’t been in the moodnot to eat since it’s been a lot cooler.. :( she’s eating some grass but not like she use to. She eats her Mazuri.. her sister Jay is doing the same thing. I’m contributing it to the weather because the are both getting soaked twice a week and being kept warm
Good morning, Noel! :)
Yes, cold weather, they just slow down a little, nothing to worry about!
Bless 'em.:<3::tort:

Good morning, Ed! :)
Any sign of the lizards, or did most of them snuff?
Actually the vast majority this far south survived.
Up a little further north. @CharlieM had most if his pond guppies die due to cold. But mine survived.
He had given me a few hundred beautiful ones and I placed them indoors in a heated tank. But at least 8 got poured into my pond with some duckweed and two Ranchu goldfish that he also gave me.
It never got below 45 here. And it wasn't sustained.
I have seen a lot of dead iguanas. But not enough to dent the breeding colonies.
