While we're human...

So what are your plans for this life? Anyone else really enjoying being human?
I start classes at university on friday (finally!) for the first time. I'm gonna be a mad scientist! Woohoo!

Mad scientists are awesome! Hope you've got the required white lab coat and goggles like this!


I enjoy being human as I'm very close with my family and several friends who I didn't have 'back then'. As for my life now, I did the major stuff: graduated college with a degree, got a job in my field, got married, bought a house, have a cat...so my life is pretty awesome as far as I'm concerned (and I am so thankful!). <!-- s --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_e_biggrin.gif" alt=":D" title="Very Happy" /><!-- s -->

I do have the lab coat, but I don't have the goggles. I'm going into biology and chemistry anyway, so I'll have a different kind of goggles.
Did you know there's going to be a Dr. Horrible sequel?
That's pretty cool. If you don't mind me asking, what field are you in?

Oh my yes! And I cannot wait! <!-- s:lol: --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_lol.gif" alt=":lol:" title="Laughing" /><!-- s:lol: --> And while I'm not in the science field I do have my own Steampunk goggles which I made.

Course not. I majored in English in college, with a Comparative Literature option and a minor in History. Now I work for my state's capitol as a writer.

Well this life is my only life seeing as I'm not even sold on souls existing in the first place. Anyway, so far my plans are having to be revamped do to the world's economy and the US economy in particular.

But what are your plans Sera?

Originally, they were to graduate college, get a job at a zoo/aquarium, move out, be married by 27.

Presently, they are to get my personal certification in mid November, get a job at a local gym for 6 months or so to gain experience, and then relocate to the Philly area around April or May and find a job training there while trying to still find a job at a zoo/aquarium or just saving up for grad school. I doubt the married by 27 part will happen either seeing as I'll be 27 in January with no romantic prospects...by 30 perhaps. NY men tend to suck.

Change those plans to move to the Hershey, PA area instead (Philly is still driveable and there's Zoo America to consider!). I've got some eligible, geeky friends who might work... <!-- s --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_e_biggrin.gif" alt=":D" title="Very Happy" /><!-- s -->

I have no actual plans, really. I just take things as they come.

I've got a pretty decent job and no real need for money at the moment, so it's just piling up. It'll probably be put to use towards university within a year if I can find one to my liking.


The closest thing to a "plan" I have for life would be the vague desire to learn foreign languages. Music, too, I suppose, though I'm not approaching either with enough dedication to produce results.


As far as enjoying "being human", no idea. "I" have always been human, and remain predominantly so. Think I'd prefer it if I were less so, to be truthful.

That's cool! What languages are you interested in? I want to learn German, Norwegian, Old English, Japanese, and anything I can get my hands on.
Way to be adaptable, Seraphina. That's a good way to be. As for the soul thing, I never meant to imply that did exist (I don't care if they do or not). I just have trouble finding words to convey what I mean.
What kind of stuff do you write, Elinox?

My plans are to go to university and hopefully get honours with a biology major and chemistry minor. Then either get a job to save up some money or get my masters. Then either get a job to save up some money or get my PhD. At some point, I will be moving to another province. I really want to study either neuroscience (I'm especially interested in neuroplasticity) or genetics. I'll study both if I can. <!-- s --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_e_biggrin.gif" alt=":D" title="Very Happy" /><!-- s -->
