Random Thoughts/Things?

I wasn’t really sure what to call this thread, but I’ve had this idea floating around in my head for awhile now. Basically, anyone can post anything here. Any random thought you have, any random thing that happens to you, any random question that pops into your mind. Have fun, and don’t be afraid to be random.

Am I really weird or does anyone else think of nicknames for your favorite characters that no one else uses?

Yesss, sometimes I'm not even sure if the name I'm using is real. Also I usually never do any research on names. I pick one out of the blue, or, worse, go to a name generator. I know that the names are soupposed to be meanningful but... and also now I feel like the name I chose fit, after writing with it for so long. And I just make of nicknames that might be gibbererish but you know what? It's a fiction world, so we can have fiction nicknames too!

My family woke at 2 am today and stargazed. It was absolutely amazing and worth waking up that early; we saw Jupiter with it's stripes and four moons, and Saturn with it's rings.

That's awesome! Where I live it's hard to stargaze because it's so hazy :/

That's the same where I live! Or maybe I just haven't tried stargazing...

Cool! Do you like space? I do I want to work at NASA when I grow up. And my grandpa and I saw the ISS once! We're going to try to hear them with a radio because he's really into radios.

You should definitely try it sometime, just look outside and you might have a not cloudy night.  Sometimes the time of year matters too. If it's fire season you may have too much smoke. 

I am into space!  We follow NASA and SpaceX pretty closely (not so much Boeing and Blue Origin for some reason).  I thought the Starship launches were great, and I am really looking forward to when they bring all the stages out!  I think I've seen the ISS a couple times, but we weren't sure.  That's cool that you and your grandpa are going to try to hear them with radios.  What would you like your career field to be in NASA?

Probably nobody noticed, but I was gone for like, a week!

In that time, I procrastinated more on my summer homework, coded a game, and couldn't draw because my hand was too shaky from practicing tennis serves.

School starts soon, and I still haven't done most of my homework.

*laughs nervously* I'm in danger!
