That sounds like its such a nostalgic game for you <3 I hope you get to play it properly soon, without the annoying buttons!


Oh, yes! A controller might be great if you want to simulate the video game console experience, but a full keyboard might be even better because you'll be able to use it for all kinds of tasks :D

I've been thinking about buying a new laptop sometime... But meh, a lot of the ones on the market aren't really that great. I want something black that'll last a couple of years :ugeek:

I was always a PC gamer so keyboard is the most natural for me, I was actually looking at some today :lol:

Whatever you do stay away from dell :geek:

@Lara

Ooooo do you keep the scarves tightly knitted or do you make them fuzzy? I find it so cool when people fuzzy up their knitted clothes! in_love_

I'm afraid not :| I'm thinking about experimenting with some cement and plaster of paris tho to sculpt maybe but this is v far fetched and I don't know yet if the cement I have is in a good condition anymore :lol: we had a lot of leftover stuff so I thought of making some lil decor stuff. Maybe tiny garden mushrooms! I will update you when I do have any success :P

I have kept them knitted so far! I'm not sure I can fuzzy mine up, one of them is acrylic yarn that I was gifted, and the other is only 20% wool so it will have to be as they are.

Sculpting sounds so fun! I hope the attempt is successful and the materials in good condition <3

Your partner must LOVE that blanket, wool is so so warm!

I'm well as well, although I feel like most days I do nothing but go to work, come home, then go to work again :lol: Really trying to find more joy in hobbies though.

I hope you didn't fail the exam! What language are you studying? It's really inspiring that you are studying just for yourself, and knowing more languages is so useful too!

Worst part is, You won't know, till You put it on! :lol: Oh that's definitely a great pick! Good luck with it!

He do seem to like it :) But I also made it with loose loops, so it's not too hot for home - I tried making a sweater for him, but yarn was so warm, he would need to go to arctic to use it. :lol:

That's good, the hobbies I mean. :) They're def important.

Suprisingly, I've got 79%, so I did pass. And I really mean surpring, cause I didn't have much time to repeat, since I'd been to London for the weekend... And thank You! But I think that generally learning new things for Yourself is super beneficial. Like You with your knitting (though that additionally gives You a cute sweater, a blanket, or gloves on top of that). :)

I hope you had a good time here /flowerpower/ And that you avoided the rain hopefully!

Ow yes. Those are hardy materials and won't fuzzy up well. If you do end up trying it in the future, please show your results //MWOMWO&quot;

Thank you 😊 I'm will let you know how it goes hehe

Not to be dramatic but I felt my life flash before my eyes, actually :sick:

I will take every opportunity to dissuade people from buying anything from that terrible brand. Their customer support is terrible, the computer parts were faulty, and I had so many blue screens that I started dreaming of blue screens too //EHDOHEH/

@Accou I think for the fuzzy look people use mohair and just hold it with the regular yarn? But I dont know how to do that yet.
What are you thinking of sculpting?

@harmonymusica Haha, yes stay away! I've only ever had HP, but I'm going to look for something else once my laptop stops working. I want a desktop PC again I want something I can customise and fix myself!

Also all my computers at work are Dell! And they break down constantly, and because I can't be bothered with our tech support who lives in another building and would have to come to me, I maintain them myself and just dont tell them :ehmeh:: and they crash constantly, and blue screen, and freeze, and they're horrible!
