I'm not sure how successful writers are >> Unless you turn out to be the next Tolken or Rowling, I don't know how much income you'll get. I always viewed writing as a hobby, or side-job.

xD I doubt I'm going to be able to create something like those people, but I guess I can always try. I'm thinking of being a doctor as my main job, and a writer as my secondary. Though I don't know about being a doctor... I would be completely mortified if one of my patients died under my care.

Working from home is nice in that there isn't anyone around to constantly breathe down your neck and make sure you are doing what you are supposed to be doing. It also saves a buttload on gas. You have to be very disciplined because it is very easy to just walk out of whatever room the computer is in and get back in bed or go and do whatever.

I'm still required to keep a set schedule which I hate because I'm such a night person (data recovery allowed me to work whenever I wanted) and I didn't want to be on the phone with people again (outsourced my former job which I loved) but I can't complain too much. I'm paid pretty well and I have benefits so....

@ Nathuram - Yeah, but I have pretty big plans for my future. I just hope that I don't end up devastated and depressed if I end up somehow loosing a patient that I somehow could have saved. :(

@ Juru - Yeah, so I guess I wouldn't be perfect at a home job, since I'm pretty lazy and give into temptation easily. =P

You never know. Later in life you might be. You have to remember I have quite a few years on both of you. I'm lazy too and would love to go back to bed right now :)

I don't think I could be a doctor. It's not that I don't care about people. I do. It's just that I don't know if I could handle the stress.

That's what I'm wondering too. On top of people dying on me, what about their families? O_o; What if they blame me? Or if they beg for me to find a way, but there is no way... That would be just awful.

Good morning everyone. Sorry for not posting in so long, I just woke up right now. And by the way, Nath, I'm tempted to get a reading from you, thanks to that other thread you have in the Exchange section. xD

This one time, Nathuram and I were at the pool together, and I couldn't help but thinking something was up. A devious smile was pasted onto his lips and if you studied him well enough, which I couldn't since he'd think I was weird if I staring at him, you'd realize that he looked just like me before I tried to take over the world. But in this horriblely hot day, the weather was so beautiful I didn't care. Or at least, I didn't until he shoved me off the diving board that I had gotten on top of for a better view! During my downwards plunge I realized why there hadn't been any other swimmers. Crap! SHARKS!

xD Sorry if I could have done better. Its too early in the morning for me to spit out better writing!

I edited the story so it was more.. grammatically correct? Tell me if I accidentally changed a sentence that was supposed to mean something else.

My soothsayer shop seems to be rather.. empty :[

xD Ignore my lack of grammar, I'm sure everything will come back once I start to wake up. And once I figure out what I'm going to have for breakfast, I feel light-headed. o_O

xD I'll come in and keep you company!

Psh. I'll make her a frozen pizza and throw some french fries on the plate.

I don't have a job. I don't have a car. I don't have money :[ Hanging out at my house is a luxury. We don't get to see each other often, although we talk on the phone constantly. And we're not a high maintenance couple x3 Our original plan for the day was to go to the food court at the mall and eat crab rangoon and lo mein.
