hi everyonee!! i'm finally back sorry for disappearing for almost a month! i finished my exams just a couple of daysa ago, it went pretty well! and i'm just glad the session finally ended, i was really stressed and got very painful headaches that would last for hours every day, to the point i couldn't even study anymore. i wish i could have more time to relax a little and take care of myself but sadly the lessons start tomorrow again. i spent the last couple days doing nothing but i still feel mentally exhausted

i already know next semester is gonna be very stressful, i have way more courses and lots of people to meet! wish me luck... hope everyone else is having more relaxing and restful days
@Moi i hope you can finally rest well!!

hello!! welcome to this thread. It's effectively been kind of a ghost town. I feel like the wooorst host since i disappeared lmao
What is everyone up to? I'm studying as always, it's pretty much my whole life rn. I also haven't been in the mood to play Kofk recently but I'm baaack. I always play obsessively and then disappear for a while.

welcome welcome!!
kenma and i have been a bit busy with the exam session and then we were both too tired and dead inside to interact with other people i guess
but i always pop in when i have time before bed! sadly uni is taking every bit of free time i have left again but i've been playing since like 2014 and i always come back after disappearing

moi how are the cats these days? i still haven't gotten fully over the need to get a little furry friend, but since i'll visit my mother for the easter holidays i'll get to see my old cat again! i'll let you know how he's doing

I should have responded, but I figured one of you guys would and you didn't and I forgot about this thread like I forget about everything 8D;;
I'm surprised I don't forget to breathe Bu
Welcome back \8u/
I wish you the best of luck with studying and exams and I wish you a lot of energy \u8/
They're doing okay. Sabre's still attacking every cat he sees. We really need to get him neutered uX
Casper came by last night and I don't know if he was reacting to Rin being in heat or what...
He was acting weird and kept trying to get to Rin, but Rin shows no signs of being in heat ._.
Anyways, my mom and sister couldn't pick him up because he was hissing and biting at them.
My sister took our Swiffer mop and was scaring him with it, so I got onto her and she got pissed at me.
Anyways, I was able to pick Casper up and put him outside.
He didn't once growl, hiss, or swipe at me. He didn't even meow.
I have low self-esteem and think poorly about myself and think I'm stupid, but one thing I'm good at is animals.
I know how they're feeling and what to do with them and what not to do with them.

haha don't worry i'm a mess too! i spend most of my days walking into rooms trying to remember why i got up in the first place. i have to write everything down or i completely forget important things i have to do. and i do sometimes forget to breathe for a few seconds when concentrating haha.
hii! hope you're doing well lately

thank you i really do need the energy these days. can't believe we only have a week of easter vacation and they're aready planning on giving us plenty of books to read and stuff to do. it's supposed to be resting time!

i'm tired just thinking about it.
how???? i wish i was really good at understanding animals too! i often watch videos of people who have great relationships with their cats, who know how to approach them and when to leave them alone. i struggle even understanding what tail pointing up means. how do you do it?? i had pets most of my life but half of them hated me, and the other half looked like they tried hard to put up with me
(except for that furball i showed you a while ago, i'm pretty sure he loved me although he loves everyone, he's v sweet

)

@Saphira i relate sm i wish i could have that special bond with an animal and know exactly what to do but i guess i don't have that special intuition certain people have. but i feel the same with humans too soo,,,
i always feel like i can't form that special bond with anyone be it a person or a pet. it's kind of a weird feeling
i'm so jealous @Moi, but then again you seem to enjoy spending time with animals sm and also be very passionate about them which in itself puts you in a position of naturally learning a lot about them. i guess doing some research and having first hand experience is most important. which i didn't really have since i only ever had like one pet in my life haha
i will now proceed to click through whole threads on the forums to get as much eggs as possible ehhehe
i already got a lot of items. i'm saving up to get all of the hair now and then i'll do everything that follows. i really enjoy collection every item i can during events!!

Saphira: I constantly forget stuff. Like I'll forget I'm HOLDING something xD
I'll pick something up, forget about holding it, and look all over for it.
It worries me because I'll go to the store and I'll forget something is in my hand.
Luckily I've never walked out without paying xD;
Cats seem to be very...untrusting. Like with a dog, you can be happy and energetic and they'll go along with it. However, cats tend to be hard to get to know and skittish at times. I approach them slowly, talking gently and not trying to just grab them and be loud and stuff.
I'll also move slowly towards them while waving my hand.
They'll pay attention to my hand and not my feet and me moving towards them.
I can tell when a cat is irritated because it's just... a feeling I get.
I can just sense it. Probably because I'm an anxious person. I can tell when others are anxious.
I used to be able to know exactly what my cat wanted - we were like linked.
That being said, I tried to pick Casper up the other night and he bit at me, BUT I approached him slowly, talked gently, let him sniff my hand, and I petted him on his forehead a few times. He let me pick him up without any fuss after that.
My older cat used to get angry and she'd just sit/stand there, slapping her tail around xD
My mom and I would say "Ooooooh look at her slapping her tail around 8u"
kenma: I love animals mostly because I don't like people. I mean, I like my friends and certain family members, but as far as most people - they've been mean to me my whole life.
They've called me so many things and have done so many things and animals could never do that.
My dog doesn't see a big fat loser - he sees just me and loves me.
My dad is also good with animals like me. He's been able to just walk up to strays and they trust him. He actually grew up on a farm and helped take care of a lot of animals.
I'll likely get some extra items so if you guys need any 8u

I feel like that's a main theme with people who prefer animals to people you know. It's that they cannot hurt you the same way. I'm really sorry this happened to you. I hope you will encounter nice people in the future.
