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.

My driver's ed teacher is kinda wacko guys . . .

Also can I just say I'm glad I don't get (hardly any) homework cause I just procrastinate until. . well that's unimportant my sleeping is lower in the figurative hierarchy than other things

Uh, @Peregrine and @Rainbow? Skyward has a sequel (called Starsight). And it's already out. Along with a third book (called Cytonic). And, like, four novellas (forgot what they're called). 

I have a feeling that your fan-person screaming is going to be audible from Detritus.

Also, I'm just going to warn you: The plot twists in Starsight are scudding incredible. You're going to flip your boots.

I knew about the sequels, but not about the novellas.  Thank you for mentioning them.  I am currently waiting for Starsight and Cytonic to come to me from the library. 

Also, I was going to mention this on the book quotes thread but since the conversation has started here I'll mention it here: you were the one who led me to Skyward, Snazzycakes.  I read the Starsight quote you posted and liked it a lot so I checked out the series.  I have read Sanderson's Elantris so his name caught my eye on your post.  Thank you for leading me to Skyward!

I'm not one for screaming, but I will be prepared to flip my boots.

"Hello!" M-Bot said to me from the cockpit.  "You have nearly died, and so I will say something to distract you from the serious, mind-numbing implications of your own mortality!  I hate your shoes."

The other day I was going through my Humanities notes because the final exam is coming up and I found ones dated February 2021- despite the fact that February this school year was 2022.

I wrote the date as 2020 the other day and then erased and wrote 2021 before realizing that that's not right either T-T

Also, we're almost halfway through 2022! Isn't that crazy??

Last month, this kept happening to me: say it's May 17th.  So instead of writing 5-17-22 on my worksheets, I kept on writing a 3 instead of a 5. Also I keep writing 5 instead of 6, but now because it's only the first day, it's fine.
