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.

i haven't had any tics like that (sounds very annoying, hope people understood though i sadly doubt they did) but even the twitchy ones can be really annoying beacuse like you can't write/draw without your arm jerking away or that sort of thing... and one of mine is my head shaking and when it's bad i can get really bad headaches. i don't remember what all i've had though...

i actually do have a tic disorder to the point where i think that's what one of my medicines is for, i just don't know the name :) i think the medicine helps though, that's probably why my tics don't tend to be as much of an issue as of the last... few years??? idk. 

Writing, I also feel you there to some extent because i also have chronic pain (i think? idk if that's specific to certain things or not) and also i have weird eyes so my eyes/head tend to hurt. also i get sick a lot. so. oof XD 

side note, sometimes tics kind of look like fidgeting or stimming (basically the same things) or it probably comes across the same way but it feels completely different, even though i can't really control either. anyway it can come across the same but it doesn't feel that way at all to me

oh yeah, sorry, didn't mean to mitigate the problems with twitch, etc. i just meant social-wise,which has always been an issue for me.

and yeah, people weren't exactly understanding. luckily i have a loving group of friends now :)

Same! I have a few twitching ones, but I also clap my hands and do little "yips"?? Like a dog?? It is very strange, but I'm glad to have a community and answers now <3

I'm in the same boat as BB, idk if I have a tic disorder. BUt I do find my self tapping my thumb on all my fingers multiple times in a row, or bouncing my right leg up and down. Or moving my eyes to the beat of a song.

Important question

How many dragons do you all think could lift the earth? 

 

 

 

And where can I find that many dragons?

it depends what kind of dragon. Drakes are pretty big and very strong (can't fly though), amphiteres are not too strong but very big, wyrms and wyverns are decently sized and pretty strong but lack a sufficient number of earth-lifting limbs. that big mysterious tortoise dragon is the earth itself, so technically it's lifting the earth already.

As for where to find these dragons, drakes like to live around mountains, amphiteres fly near clouds on cold but sunny days, and wyrms and wyverns can be found almost anywhere.

As for how many of these could lift the earth, figuring that out requires math, so I will be back later.

This weekend I'm going to see the Sleeping Beauty ballet and I'm very excited! I listened to some of the music and it's very beautiful. I'll tell you all how it was after we see it :D

THAT'S SO COOL!!!! i hope you like it. the music is indeed amazing :D Ummm since ballet dancers use hand motions and such to tell the story instead of words, try to figure some of those out. (it varies by ballet, that's just a hint). The Rose Adagio is supposed to be one of the hardest pieces of choreography since Aurora stands on one leg on point for so long. and i bet the costumes are going to be amazing! if not look some up from Royal Opera House, but they probably will be. Marius Petipa (the choreographer) had specific directions for Tchaikovsky (the composer) - a certain number of measures, tempos, choreography to write to. That was acutally the only ballet he had that reliably - Swan Lake was an organizational mess XD i'll write more later but this works for now.
