Since some people here frequent the Teamspeak. I decided to make this thread. This is a place to share all of the stupid, funny, and humiliating things people say or write from Teamspeak. Please keep the quotes from the Teamspeak and have fun Both Teamspeak addresses in case any one was wondering Rens: ts3.fuwanovel.info Steves: ts.mare.moe

Well this sure came earlier than expected. Curse that mod appreciation thread for rushing me into this, now I have to think of something before going to bed to meet everyone's expectations. But then Ren had to make a thread about the biggest thing that's happened in my life recently so I'd just be repeating myself here if I just talked about that. This is troublesome. But I guess I could go a little deeper into what's been going on in the past months. I didn't want to make a thread until things stabilized in my life and I had a clear mind about things, but now I feel like I've reached that stage and I can write something like this, if you're interested do proceed, if not that's okay, this is a rather self centered post after all. Rather than just making this thread as a celebration for 6000 posts, I also wanted to use it to celebrate the fact that I've been on fuwa over a year now (was a year on the 26th of September but I forgot about it), and because of that I wanted to analyze how much I've grown since I've been here. So ever since I made my 3000th post a lot of stuff has been going on. I made that post back in May this year and at the time, without trying to repeat too much, I was studying for a geography exam to try and apply for college. I mentioned how Fuwa gave my life a direction and how it helped giving me the will to do something for myself. Well if you want a quick summary of what happened after. I did manage to pass the exam which was very fortunate, but not everything is sunshines and rainbows and unfortunately despite passing the exam, the grade just wasn't high enough to go into Asian Studies in college. This was a pretty hard time for both me and my family, living in a house of 4 where only 2 people provide monthly income (and a low income for the matter) can get tough, I know I couldn't just sit around for another year, I had to look for something productive to do, and that is when I applied for the army. Yes that's right, I went from trying to apply for college to applying for the army, a person who sat around for a whole year tried to do this. I signed up for gym and everything. The main reason was of course the income and the fact I could also study while being in the army. I spent 1 month training for the army's physical exams (entrance exams if you will) and while I did felt my overall physique was improving (and i did lose a couple Kgs), when it came down to it I was asking for too much, the exams were too rough for someone not acostumated with regular physical exercise and strict regimes and I was kicked out pretty early (much shame). Well I knew this didn't mean the end of my life, it mostly meant that, for the time being, I was left with the option of trying to get a job in retail or something. It wasn't very encouraging but what can you do, I wasn't just going to laze around for another year and leech off my family. But before trying to go out there and look for jobs I figured why not try to re-apply for college. In Portugal you can apply 3 times (during pre determined periods). But I knew I couldn't get into Asian Studies so what was the point. While college looked Grim for me at this point since I couldn't do what I want which was learn japanese, I did have a talk with some people, and those people are the lurkers of Ren's TS. After a lot of things with my education kind of failed and I was a little down in the dumps (I won't say depressed but you get the point). We mostly talked about career choices and what can you do when certain things don't work out and while I don't want to expand too much on this, let's just say that it made me look at college in a somewhat different light. After this obviously I also had a talk with my family (I can't say that the internet led 100% of my life after all) and after some thinking I decided to apply for other things. I decided that it's okay if i don't go into asian studies right now, I can still enter college through other courses, and who knows I might even like those courses, and maybe those courses can even let me learn japanese later down the road. I'm still 19, I have enough time to change later on, I'm still young enough to do things like this. And thus, on a whim, I got online and applied for 6 different courses in the college I wanted to go to. Naturally I still applied to Asian Studies (wouldn't hurt), but I put lots of other things in there. And the end result was that I didn't go into Asian Studies as expected, but there was some hope, I got accepted into European Studies. You might say it's the total opposite of what I wanted and ask what's the point. And you know what? I totally agree with you, it's completely unrelated. But, now I managed to enter college, and the college I initially wanted for the matter. And you know what? Classes aren't that bad, I'm actually enjoying most of them. Learning language and communication was extremly fun. Europe Geography brought light down some stuff I had no clue about (I discovered a part of Portugal is in Africa this thursday) And Europe Culture can be quite fascinating as well. Am I learning japanese? No, I am not. But you know what? I still can, I still have years left, I can still apply to transfer courses, I can do lots of different things. My main point, and where I'm trying to go with this, is that despite not being able to enter the road I was initially aiming for, I discovered that there's many detours I can still take, and who knows if those detours aren't even more fun than the initial trip I wanted, the yellow brick road isn't the only road available. And now that I've entered college I realized that my future is still quite open and I still have chances to pursue what I want, even if it's not right here in this present time, but good things come to those who work hard and wait. And as such I shall work hard and try harder next year or whenever I can in order to pursue the stuff I want, hence why I named this thread the way I did, I'm sorry for the cheesyness but it's just for today so please bear with it. And if by any chance anyone is in any kind of similar situation to this, I hope this testimony might have helped you in some form. I think this is enough by now, I'm feeling a bit feverish today so I apologize if this wasn't up to the hype of some people, but I write this out of gratitude, to those who heard me out whenever I needed, to those who made my days more fun, to those who gave me some direction and held me up when I was falling down, to the Love Live thread who's pretty much become my homebase and my addiction, to all the people of Fuwanovel. Once again, I couldn't be more grateful to be part of, and work hard for this community. Thank you for being here and for being who you are. And thus I end my 6000th post, may we have many more posts and hopefully a 10,000th one I bid you farewell from this post and ask that you join me together and wholeheartedly shouting Nico Nico Nii ~Nosebleed

Hello everyone! I'm Scott, President of Domino's Pizza. Have you heard of Hatsune Miku? I am a huge fan Hatsune Miku, pizza, and visual novels. Sadly, I have yet to read a visual novel that involves pizza or Miku. So please recommend me some visual novels! The more pizza, the better! I would also like to take this opportunity to tell you guys about my collaborative project featuring Hatsune Miku. Domino's App feat. Hatsune Miku. Hatsune Miku exists in a software called Vocaloid. Vocaloid enables you to make songs, and a character named Hatsune Miku sings the songs you create. I knew our Domino's Pizza crew could work together and create great Vocaloid songs. The challenge was successfully carried out, and this new collaborative app was produced. I won't bore you with all of the details, but I would appreciate it if you checked out my app for yourself. Thank you for your time!
