kittypuppy Posted July 24, 2013 Report Share Posted July 24, 2013 Hi fellow nerds! I don't usually post on many forums because for some reason I get really shy online and lurk alot. But screw that. I'm putting myself out there in an effort to change. I am really excited to become part of this awesome community- I honestly can't believe I've found like-minded people!! Ok. So this year has been a very 'transition-ey' one for me with the completion of my degree and concurrent return to my hometown. I spent weeks trying to find my place while everyone around me seemed to have everything worked out. So, I started playing games a lot more than usual (while avoiding social occasions etc) because it was comfortable and fun and I could be whatever I wanted within that fantastical world. After a bit of life avoidance I have decided to pick myself the eff up and rebuild my confidence and love for life with fitness (I do enjoy running- when I actually go!). I have also decided to change my diet after a university diet based on too much alcohol and processed food. I exercised intermittently during uni but nothing really stuck because I was forcing myself and hating it. The only thing I actually enjoyed however was pilates, so I am going to start doing it again with the running and other things. I am still going to enjoy my games (without shutting myself off from those around me) and I am excited to become as strong and confident as my in game characters always are! Though half of it is already gone, this is my big year for change! I am going to chase my dreams like it's no ones business Super pleased to meet everyone! Lotsa love, Sarah a.k.a Kittypuppy Quote And the day came when the risk to remain tight in a bud was more painful than the risk it took to blossom. -Anaïs Nin Link to comment

Laureleye Posted July 24, 2013 Report Share Posted July 24, 2013 Yes, but on the other hand, there's 5 months left in the year, and you can do a lot in that time. This looks like a great time to build some new habits. Welcom.

kittypuppy Posted July 25, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 25, 2013 Thanks for the welcome guys Laureleye, very true. 5 months is actually quite a while when I think of it like that. Thanks!

Misugrrl Posted July 27, 2013 Report Share Posted July 27, 2013 Welcome! I am brand spanking new too, and I had the same reaction as you. I felt like the do-do bird who finally found the island full of her kind. It was nice.
