Chat basilmarket, complex, conventions, crazy, guilds, individuals

Was everything from the old basilmarket removed? :( I do miss the interactivity of the platform! The other day, I remembered how we had to verify people's legitimacy in selling NX by whispering "trustworthy" and high-leveled individuals from well known guilds! It just made me realize that even as a 15 year old, we were exposed to some pretty complex social conventions in the virtual world of MapleStory... even having "tracks" to find out who's inside a PQ and using autoclickers just to get into them... Crazy times those were!! ;)

Post a pic of your city! In our hyperconnected world of the internet, we sometimes take for granted the distances between us and the people on other side of the screen. I had taken a photo of my city's river valley a couple of days ago (for a paper I'm working on): Location: Edmonton, Alberta, Canada It would be awesome to see the familiarity/unfamiliarity of your city environments! Post of a photo of your urban landscape~ be it green spaces, skyscrapers, streets, neighbourhoods... you name it~ I'm sure you have at least one grainy photo in your phone/computer somewhere :) #majorprocrastination #halp

Where are you in life atm? I've made a thread like this in the past and I just wanted to check up on y'all. What's new? What do you like/dislike about how things are going in your life right now? What are your plans for the future? Bombard me with your stories. My situation: It is currently fall break - so we have a week-long vacay before final assignments are due, and before final exams finally creep in. I have a year left to finish my undergraduate degree, so I'm both anxious and excited to move on to the professional world (unless I decide to do a masters). It's starting to snow in my part of Canada, but it's a rather warm start to winter. Classes are a little tough this sem, but thinking about the next/final two semesters stresses me ou

Coffee vs. Tea What do you guys prefer? How do you like your coffee / what kind of tea's do you like? My preference has evolved in recent years... I've gone from large double-double (2 cream / 2 sugars) to a small black - and more recently, just a small cold black (no cream no sugar) iced coffee... If I'm feeling sick though, I prefer a nice cup of mint tea *o* I often get my coffee from Tim Hortons - then again, I don't really have a gauge on 'good' coffee. I can only tell if a cup of coffee is really terrible - otherwise, coffee's just coffee from branch to branch...

Im meeting a Mr. Basil this evening So one of the things I needed to do to finish up my internship application is to get my youth mobility Visa approved. I needed several documents notarized, so I had to find a lawyer that could make my documents offish. I first talked to (what sounded like) a Nigerian lawyer which tried to overcharge me for his stamps/notary services. I ditched that guy and continued to look for another lawyer that can notarize my stuff. Alas, I was transferred to a lawyer named Basil... I am now meeting Mr. Basil at 8:15 pm tonight at a McDonald's near my house so I can finally finish my Visa application. I am assuming Mr. Basil is a brown guy. Sounded like it. No accent or anything. It just sounded like it. Just wanted t

What is Your 5-year plan? I like setting goals, both realistic and unrealistic. Whether or not I succeed in accomplishing these goals/objectives, I just enjoy writing them down. My brief and basic 5-year plan: - finish my undergraduate degree in +/- 3 years - to participate in an international internship during school - work in my country for a year after graduating (pay my student loans) - decide whether or not to go to graduate school - brushing up on my french and spanish as I explore the world *o* I want to know YOUR 5-year plan!
