We will have to agree to disagree there mate I think a hot drink is the best way to start the day.
Nah not when it's warm outside!
I hope you're doing okay - forgot about this chit chat thread but just wanted to check and see how you're doing and what you're up to!
I keep seeing these cute random cups of green tea and reminded me to just send a message on here.
I know everyone must be asleep by now but I hope you all have a wonderful day ahead of you when you see this in the morning - Happy Friday and let me know what you guys have planned for today! (I have nothing so I guess I'm roam about the boards for a bit today...)
Ahhh hello @lovemimoon - how are you doing?
I'm turning 20 today so I'm just like holy shit.
You? Got anything planned?
Ahhhhh!! This is so exciting!! I guess I better be the first one to wish you
HAPPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOUUUUU! HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOUUUUU ~ Happy birthday dear @lovemimoon; happy birthday to you!
Are you doing anything interesting today, or something that you really like?
20 is a good age to be, trust me - you've come so far but you've still got so much to explore, learn and love!
Nothing at all myself - just finished a draft of my dissertation!
* insert virtual hugs here for your birthday! *
LOVE THIIIIIIS:
Ooh, what's your dissertation about?
Don't worry, I'll wish you again during the day
It's cool right - I will send more during the day maybe - like surprises or something
My dissertation is super interesting, focusing on 'why the way we talk about mental health matters', more issues with the medicalisation of the language that is used in mental health diagnoses, stigma and so on. Bit long-winded, but hey if I get famous and published maybe I'll share it.
I'll send you some back when your birthday comes around!
Hoooly shit! I'm about to base my dissertation about mental health and art!
AAAA THATS SO COOOL! Oh my goodness, how are you finding it so far?
Hello, I'm just busy with work and stuff tbh. I'm still in absolute shock about my hometown having a mass shooting last night... I'm just.. broke .
My family and friends are safe

I hope that the car passes the MOT. That can always be scary.

The spookiest August ever!
Ahhh! @lovemimoon that sounds super exciting! What sort of focus do you hope to have for your dissertation and what sort of art / MH are you looking into - if it's anything particular? Sounds super interesting - happy to share papers if you need anything at all! I've literally been reading so many journals and points of research so I'll probably be able to give something to help (if you need any at all!)
I absolutely love it!
I conducted my study on it throughout the past year almost and now writing it up gives me a sense of satisfaction and a sense of worry too - but I hope that it's okay
How has your day been today?
Hey @GreenTea - busy with work sounds good - I hope you find a little bit of down time if that's a choice for you (at least on the weekends)
Congrats on adulting today @Millie2787
@fabulash it was good shopping , I had to get my last few bits for university and I’m getting a butterfly with flowers , the flowers will match my other tattoo
Thank for everyone for the birthday wishes!
