-! Guuurrrlll, don't get yourself drowned!! That is really cute though-- XDD I really love the ocean, too. Being on the beach is like.., existing on another plane of existence, one of both majestic death and serene nature.
Mhm..
Y E S , exactly!! XD Ah well... perhaps they're secretly teaching us how to deal with lazy and incompetent workers in our future jobs. Very clever.
Mweeheehee- >:3 Exactly. Like all the world's secrets are inside its deep blue waves...
Ah well, keep your head up I guess. Only a couple weeks til Thanksgiving break, and a couple more after that til winter break... UwU For us at least. I'm just assuming yours is somewhat the same XD
Ah, quite clever. Setting a great example for us.
*cue Leviathon just chilling in the cold black abyss*
Mhm, looking forward to those! Thankfully we get nearly the entire month of December off, which is a w e s o m e .
Yes, and then they wonder why I won't go to any of their mental health counseling. One day I'll have students, and they'll send me emails asking about the homework assignments, and I won't respond until eight hours before the due date. My professors will weep with joy knowing I learned so much wisdom from them.
Meanwhile I have far more fun with the generic stuff. The coin collecting community, I guess
I went to the coin store as a kid and asked if they had anything canadian and they sold me a mostly full book with some old stuff for $1. Was awesome.
No idea what the oldest one I've found and not inherited or bought is. Do you collect wheat pennies, then?
Well if it's too generic then there isn't a point, there has to be something to set the coin apart from the rest of your change.
For a dollar? I did not realize coin stores were a thing.
How old is the oldest one you own? Mine is a shilling from 1855.
Yes, I indeed collect wheat pennies. I collect almost everything. I have my dad's collection, he got a book for his and there's some extras that I put in a jar. I also got some from my grandmother's collection (which she got from her parents I think) to fill in some of the holes in the book.
Yeah, what sets it apart is that until I looked at it, it wasn't in my books.
You have not lived a full life. Coin stores are exciting.
I think I have a British coin back in my junk at my parents that's from somewhere in that ballpark, but it's not worth much. Maybe 1860 or something.
How's your 1930s wheat penny collection looking? Depression Era coinage is the true test of strength of collection. Needless to say, I don't have many of those.
Not much, I was just feeling incredibly nostalgic and was telling my bf about LMBs. I'm in undergrad now, in case anyone was wondering, studying Hospitality.
thankfully my gf is from the LMBs so I don't have to introduce that period of my life... Believe it or not I've yet to tell anyone about the LMBs... And that's great for you! I remember when we last talked you'd mentioned that you wanted to go to school. Congrats!

So being stuck inside a book is the only thing that sets the coin apart from any other?
Hopefully I can visit one some day.
It being that old is still impressive though. I think I have a British penny from that time period too, but it's so worn I had to look up the dimensions of Victorian coins to figure out its denomination.
Hm let's see... I have a 30, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39. All from Philadelphia mint only. That's less than I thought.

Yes. It's like a zoo.
You should see one of the mints, too. That's always fun.
I don't remember all he foreign currency I have at this point.
Yes, that's standard. I believe I have the same. More would be challenging.
