We pillage plunder, we rifle and loot. Oh oof! The beach is best at night time. Stand up me hearties, yo ho.
We kidnap and ravage and don't give a hoot.
Stand up me hearties, yo ho.
Yo ho, yo ho, a pirate's life for me.
That shanty has been stuck in my head so much I find myself humming it while I walk. Don't think I've ever encountered a beach after dark. I'll have to go then the next time I'm near one
It is rather good. It feels free. And you won't get sunburned.
1. Of course, I'm not allowed to tell you WHICH university I'm going to... However, let's just say I chose a university renowned for it's inclusive culture and friendly atmosphere, rather than a prestigious one focused on academic success. I had the grades to go wherever I wanted in the country, but I chose my current uni because I didn't want to be in that unfriendly stressful culture. I have a few friends who have gone to the prestigious unis and safe to say I'm having the better experience.
2. Uni costs a lot less in Australia than it does in the US. Like, a LOT less. Probably 1/4 of the price.
3. I don't live in a dorm with other people, I live by myself. Takes that sketchy factor out of it.
4. I love the degree I'm doing (Sports science)
5. I've met so many wonderful people and am apart of many clubs!!
Yeah college here is EXpeNSIve. To the point it's not particularly worth it if you have jobs already lined up. Yeah lots of people is not a cup of tea imo. That's good! Yay always good when the people you meet are not jerks.
Yes it's a viable option here provided you have the grades. The government helps out, especially if you is a rural student
Yes, there be some jerks, but I stick with the nice people

The government will help but that depends on parental income, typically

Lol that must be nice. XD Well I would qualify for that, are you rural? Well that's everywhere. That sounds like a good plan.
Thank you! Maybe a bit more adventurous than I expected but it was still a pretty good four years.
They don't usually rank very high in comfort Most of my siblings despise them and avoid wearing them at all cost.
In a rather alarming turn of events it actually snowed here yesterday. Hopefully you are experiencing a similar amount of precipitation in a less extreme form.
Yep, some of the fancy health brands have started using tapioca syrup but they are hard to find and absurdly expensive so it's definitely a sometimes treat
You're welcome! Glad to hear your college adventure was a lot of fun and filled with adventure.
Agreed. Ah, I see. They definitely aren't that great to wear, but they are also the only nice-looking set of casual apparel that I have in my closet.
Wow. That's pretty cool. Hopefully it wasn't too deep. I was actually on a business trip this past week, and I ended up getting precipitation where I landed.
I see. That's usually the way it goes when it comes to producing good items out of hard-to-find ingredients.
Covid really changed my idea of what constitutes adventure
That's fair, they are pretty versatile apparel. And they have the added benefit of being reasonably sturdy so they'll last a good long while usually.
That probably depends, do you consider twelve inches to be deep? Oh nice, hope it went smoothly and the precipitation didn't put a damper on your trip.
Yep, just one of those fun things I have to constantly be aware of when buying groceries. On the bright side I've gotten weirdly good at couponing.
It is easily missed in the chaos that is the Skywalker-Solo family tree
Reflecting on the Sequels considering recent Celebration.
I believe a compromise of having parallel timelines would have been nice, and interestingly the World Between Worlds introduced in Rebels allows for that somewhat.
Wiping 40 years of stories without much of a conclusion or fanfare is quite sad, though the potential introduced with Rey and Fin was squandered. Personally, I believe in making the best of what one's got and from the new Disney Canon Captain Sidon Ithano and Sarco Plank are my favorites. The characters of Rogue One as well.
On another note, the way Rey was set up in Force Awakens shares a similar arc with Nomi Sunrider. If only they had focused on her maturing from her attachment to her parents, her friendship with Finn in that they both are seeking their place in the galaxy by overcoming internal struggles, and how the legend of the Jedi meant to her as a conduit for how it does to the audience...
Imagine Finn tackling with eliminating his fellow Stormtroopers, perhaps first having rage at what the First Order Child Program did to him, then later compassion in remembering that one stormtrooper from the opening whom he held as he was expiring, maybe even have a scene where Finn stops Resistance soldiers from eliminating Stormtroopers and instead orchestrating a mission that ensures the least possible destruction of either Resistance or First Order soldiers, a focus on his newfound code of preserving life, perhaps causing him to but heads with a high ranking Resistance Officer who harbors a deep hatred of the First Order...so many roads.
As one who was bullied for enjoying the Prequels, I can't see myself doing the same for Sequel fans and feel for them in a way. Hopefully the Kenobi series does well, though that one fan film was awesome. (I don't understand the dislike for helicopter sabers...yes it's corny but has anyone read the Tales of the Jedi series? Exar Kun and Ulic Qel-Droma's bro handshake anyone ?)
I'm not sure I could've handled how long it took me to complete that racing challenge alone
That whole thing was absolutely insane All that trouble with that one and then you were able to immediately turn around and get the other brick with zero effort
That shanty has been stuck in my head so much I find myself humming it while I walk. Don't think I've ever encountered a beach after dark. I'll have to go then the next time I'm near one

However my favorite shanty is still Eliza Lee. Both are very important perks, especially since I am pale enough to rival a vampire. I'm paying a visit to the Atlantic Ocean in September, so that'll be the perfect time to give it a go.
