    Havoc, have you looked into frozen concentrated orange juice futures recently? It's important to keep your retirement in mind at all times, and with all the recent market volatility there, I'd say you should definitely be considering it: http://www.nasdaq.com/article/orange-juice-on-track-for-third-session-of-losses-20160622-00558

    I got some really good advice on this decision when I was trying to figure out what to do in my senior year of college: unless you are certain you want to go to graduate school, don't do it.
    Anyway, nice to see you back, congratulations on your accomplishment, and best of luck!

    Well nobody probably noticed, but I have not been posting for pretty much the entire year.
    I did lurk around the site though.
    As for why, well it has been a pretty hectic year.
    In the last quarter of my third study year my mother got diagnosed with breast cancer and that really took up most of my time last summer, together with assuring I did not flunk anything.
    Well afterwards during summer vacation I was basically in charge of the household, as my mother just had her surgery and was starting on chemotherapy.
    She did not react well to it and got herself a urine way infection and spend the next two weeks in the hospital.
    After the summer vacation I was busy again with school this time for my final year and having to deal with my minor, as well as a lot of stress at home.

    After the second term I had to start on my internship and on my bachelors thesis, which basically comes down to a full work week.
    My mother was still recovering at that point and I did not get along with my supervisor, which did not help with all the stress.
     
    Somehow or another I still managed to succeed and get my bachelor, still haven't quite figured out how I managed to do it.
    So yeah I managed to get my bacherlor in chemistry.
     
     
    Only thing left now is to decide what to do afterwards.
    Still have not quite figured out what to do next.
     
    I am torn between finding a job and going for a master in chemistry.
    I just cant seem to make my mind up about it, working sounds like a good decision but I wont be earning as much as I would with a masters degree.
    On the other hand if I go for my masters degree, I will have to start living on my own (no problem there), but I will also have to pay for that all.
    Which will mean I have to start borrowing, and that will probably amount to 30.000- 40.000 euro which to me is quite the sum.
    I just cant seem to figure out what the right decision is.
    (Note it was not my parents paying for everything, were I come from you get studiefincanciering for 4 years or the length of your study which covers most of the costs minus any material needs.)
     
    I just needed to get that off my chest for a bit.
    That and brag a little bit .

    Welcome back Havoc. 
    About your education. If you feel like continue your study and you are motivated enough to complete the last push do it. But if you need a break I suggest taking it and finding a job. You can always return to educate yourself later on when you have saved up some money. From personal opinion don't try to force anything if you don't feel like studying.

    Dracu-Riot! Completion Project
    Project Info:
    As i said in a previous post, if the Dracu-Riot scripts were released, I will translate Miu's route, and that's exactly what I'm announcing in this thread.
    But I'm not alone in this crusade, I've partnered with the wonderful people at The Oxford Comma is Superior Subs so we can deliver the best possible final product and lay the Dracu-Riot memes to rest. We also got several people from the Fuwanovel community to help speed up things even more.
    How is the project going to go down, you ask. Well you can read this post if you want detailed info, but the tl;dr version is that we are aiming to release multiple patches.
    The first patch aims to translate the remainder of Miu's route as well as any remaining untranslated content (images, menus, etc.) with complete editing to polish the current patch.
    We are going to try and release this in about 2 months, if everything goes according to plan.
    The second patch is meant to be more heavily translation checked as that's when Fiddle has enough free time to go over the whole game.
    There is no ETA for this second patch.
    This doesn't mean the first patch will be terrible, we will of course strive for a good product, but we would still like to inform you of our schedule. If we waited for Fiddle to be completely free, it would take much more time to release Miu's route, and so we've decided to do it this way.
    I hope you look forward to future updates.
    FAQ:
    Why not just make a Miu partial patch, why do you want to go over the whole game?
    There are actually 3 main reasons for this:
    The first and biggest one is that Insem's patch only works with the physical version of Dracu-Riot! which is very hard to get in the West and we want to make a new patch that works on both the physical and digital versions of the game, this way people can purchase the digital version and patch it, thus supporting Yuzusoft. The second one is that we want to americanize the writing style as well as make sure everything is edited properly, because Insem didn't have time to finish the whole thing. The last one is translation checking. Although we don't doubt Insem's abilities, we really want to try and make sure the translation is accurate. We also want to include translation notes in the game. Only 2 months? That seems way too fast.
    2 months is indeed fast, if we were translating the entire game, but we're actually only translating about 4,000 lines and we're splitting those lines between two main translators, this will hopefully make that 2 month deadline possible.
    Please do note we will not jeopardize translation quality for the sake of reaching the deadline. If we can not make it in time, we will delay the release until we're satisfied with the end result.
    Will the translation have memes?
    Yes, but only the dankest ones.
    Why aren't The Oxford Comma people making the announcement here?
    So I can get those sweet, sweet internet points.
    I want to help!
    Contact @Fiddle and beat him in a pipe bag showdown (plaid skirt is mandatory).

    Indeedy. She supposedly "struggled" to make the decision, but it still doesn't make sense. Also, due to the fact that (either due to the animation studio or the production team) they aren't managing to truly create any tension with the war, it all feels like silly playing around; with the characters just doing random stuff and joking like always, when it's supposed to be a super serious mission and war, with thousands of lives in the line and so on. As much as I love the adaptation, they are sucking a little bit at doing these parts.
    And yeah, don't think it's the best series since it's only 12 episodes (implying that there won't be that much fleshing out for the story and characters), but Dimension W sure is entertaining as hell.

    managed to finish Noble Works and cartaga.
    Noble works was a pretty fun ride, nothing special and in some ways very similar to Princess Evangile. But i needed something on the happy side of the spectrum at the time, and i generally like these types of stories if they are done good enough.
     
    cartaga, I just need to lose this: The picture on the vndb page and the menu is a BLOODY SHAM.
    And no i dont mean about the story, i read the synopsis, i mean about the type of character the person on the picture is. Such a big mismatch.
    Not to say she was not a pretty adorable character.

    On other news, I am thinking of starting on Long live the queen, but i am in doubt as to Werther it will be worth it as i generally dont really enjoy these choice heavy games.
