I have 2 rescue dogs! One is a red heeler/german shepherd and she's about 11 months old. Her name is Maci and we have a rat terrier thats about 3 years old, we're not sure, but her name is Pebbles I don't live at home so I don't get to see them as often as I'd like to but I love seeing them when I get the opportunity. Maci likes to run to my room and jump on me when she wakes up. Dogs are great to have!

My dad's work friend found a dog on the side of the road, and he took him, but he already had 3 dogs, so he gave him to us. His name's Jack, and he's adorbs.

Oh, hi Clayton! I thought I recognised you by your username. Rosie talks about you a lot ^3^
Welcome to tbt, we can be fellow bookworms.
I have a story I just posted in the museum if you're interested.
My dog is a cross between a black lab and a spaniel and his name is Baxter.
I've always wanted more than one pet but I'm not allowed :/

I don't talk about him that much

Maybe I talk about him a little

That'd be one dysfunctional relationship if you're the responsible one.

Oh poop I'm so nervous and excited, my driving instructor says that we need to book my driving test for the end of December/early January! I've only been learning since August, whereas most of my friends have been learning for around a year now and the majority of them are having to book the 2nd or 3rd test... .

If you can, do as much driving outside of instructor time as you can (obviously this depends on family). A lot of people are put through these intensive, rushed driving courses where they're taught how to move on a road, but not how to actually drive. For example, a lot of instructor cars have markings placed on the windscreen etc. that indicate when you're about to hit the kerb. This is exacerbated by the way the driving test is done - where you're really just putting on a performance for the examiner.

All you really get out of lessons are the basics such as manoeuvres, how to start and stop, and traffic laws (if even). You're not going to die because you can't do a 3-point turn in record time, or because you're a bit slow off the green light. So once you have the basics down, you just need to drive drive drive and gain road experience. Experience and good judgement is what will get you home at the end of the day.

I was completely self taught in a crappy car, of which the engine would cut out ~20% of the time when I declutched to stop. Took me about 7 months before I did my test, over which I had accumulated around 100 hours of road time. I got a fair number of minors, mainly due to bad habits I had picked up. So go for it if you think you're ready! Lessons will only get you so far (but you've no choice if it's your only way to get onto the road).

My instructor teaches driving a bit more in-depth than others, he gets me into day-to-day situations that other driving schools would never go near! He also teaches general safety, for example I had to go round a multi-story car park and park on the top floor and then he started telling me what to do if it was night time and I had to get back to the car myself and if someone was following me...

My parents have got a car for me to drive (I have to give it back when my brother starts learning though), but the insurance is ludicrous! Plus my parents work 6 til 5 So they have little time to actually drive with me... My parents think that they will be able to insure me in January, AFTER I have done my first test...

Sounds like you got yourself a great instructor. Multistoreys are the ultimate test of spatial awareness!

That'd be one dysfunctional relationship if you're the responsible one.

any healthy relationship requires both people to be responsible

 

[Feraligator]

I'm a 14 year old male, who likes the colour blue, likes the numbers 5, 6 and 8, and lives in the UK. I don't like school but my classes this year are pretty good. I am a night owl and I love Animal Crossing so much, especially the music.

I hate shopping, revising, waking up early and stressful schoolwork, and I love video gaming.
I have an Axew plush that I love.

I might seem rude sometimes, but that's because I can have a short temper. I'm a really nice guy inside but my teenager side keeps showing up sometimes.

 

[Kip]

I'm 17* and male. Love art. I compose/remix music, Draw, Create/Develop games, I code, and a bunch of other things.
I love Chocolate, Games (Animal Crossing is my favorite), Creating things, & Anime.

I'm home schooled. That leaves time for many other things such as the stuff I've written above.
I'd say I'm somewhat nice (Just don't eat my Pizza or Chocolate and we may get along very well.)

[Psydye]

I like music....so informative I know. lol

...

..Alright I'll post something more interesting: I like coffee(am a huge addict, particularly flavored coffees, such as hazelnut(my favorite flavor)), love almost all kinds of music, am dissatisfied w/ my weight problem(trying to get more exercise though it's hard to find the motivation to(if only I had an ipod T-T)), am currently on disability but plan on getting some kind of job in the future(just don't know what, finding direction is tough and is why i'm going to see a special thing in a nearby town that's supposed to help give you direction in life, on account of recommendation from my therapist)...I like to draw(esp. smexy anthro chics, sue me, I have hormones!), like Chinese food beyond anything(it's gotta be that MSG!), strongly dislike the following bands/artists: Nickelback, Limp Bizkit, Poison/Guns n' Roses(not a fan of hair in metal in general though, but esp. these guys! that being said, there are exceptions), Kanye West, maybe a few others I can't think of atm....let's see what else? I'm a Virgo and a Dragon as far as Zodiacs go, respectively...I strongly dislike raspberry white chocolate as a flavor combination....love micro/craft and import beers...somewhat adventurous w/ food(though nothing so far-off like bugs or anything, or organs...blech!)....I live in western Massachusetts, Hampden county in particular...and...that's all i got for now lol. If I remember anything else I'll let you know...

 

[tamagotchi]

I'm a weirdybooweirdo who likes sleeping, eating, Anime, and I'm really lazy; though I like having things clean.
I seem to insult people when I'm not trying to at times. uvu;;

 

[Alienfish]

[Omfa]

I am a 16 year old mixedrace (Swedish/Filipino) boy. I am studying Social Behavior, but I switched from Natural Science just a few weeks ago. I'm really interested in psychology, math(which sucks, because my class isn't near me here), physics(even though, that subject killed me) and social studies. Even though I'm really interested in all of this, I'm also a huge procastinator. Even right now I'm procrastinating from finishing my assignment about energy sources. <.<
I'm also a huge fan of the football team AC Milan, even though the team is awful right now.
My favourite football player was Kak?, who was also my idol as a kid.
My dream job is either becomming a psychologist or a pilot.

I think that about wraps it up. Pleased to meet you.

 

[monochrom3]

Just a girl who lives somewhere in Asia. My hobby is playing video games(currently obsessed with ACNL), reading comics, and drawing. Currently debating whether I should get a tablet or not for my birthday.

And I find the people in here who switches between trolling-mode and serious-mode amusing. Also, I think Lunatic is a cool girl. And maybe Farobi, but I rarely see him/her.
