    Hi, who and how are you? Tell me something interesting and let's get to know each other. Cause we all know no one is gaining anything from asking if the person below you is hot.

    I never read the chit chat threads because of all of those so I'm glad someone started something different! I've been on MFP for a few months but pretty new to the forums. I'm 26 from NYC.

    I've just been at home, had kind of a dull dayyy. Was feeling a little down but trying to get over it. I'll chalk it up to the post graduation blues. I'm in an empty college town this summer. People will come back in a few weeks but bleh, I'M GONNA BE OLDER THAN THE REST OF THEM. I guess I can hang out w graduate students, heh.

    Ah, I understand. Sometimes I still want to go back to college and perpetually be a student. I really miss those days, life was definitely much more easier. How old are you, if you don't mind my asking?

    I usually have very busy days so sometimes dull days are nice to have but one dull day is about the most I can manage or I start feeling a little down too.

    I'm 22, I keep hearing people say that but I don't believe it lol. College wasn't great for me. I don't drink or party and my school was obsessed w it. I'd rather have adult friends who work and have families and are just a little calmer. Oh man I sound BORING.

    @riirii93_ hey - I just graduate for the third time! Well - not had the ceremony yet - but have finished the degree :) I did a Bachelor of teaching this time - gonna be a school teacher haha!

    And yep - I can't afford lessons either. I ride once a year these days if I'm lucky!

    And thanks! But I *am* flexing as much as humanly possible in this pic - complete with sucking my gut in and all that. in a relaxed state there is a lot of fluffy around the edges LOL :)

    Hi im Crystal I was going to colleges in Colorado and I am 31 years old I've been on and off the right now for 5 years and I really need to start losing weight and get really serious about my health and fitness this is why I am back on I just found out I have arthritis in my knee and having this extra weight on me isn't going to help any expecially since I'm already starting to lose cartilage in my knee. 11:44 I don't have but questions and they don't understand the game I don't think this is necessarily again it's just the way where we can get to know each other.

    @riirii93_ oh! we have more in common then! I did ESL teaching for 8 years before I started my degree. ATM I'm not teaching - working in admin at a university - because took time off for having a baby and all that stuff and couldn't get another teaching job that suited my availabilities. Hope to get back into it soon though :) ESL is great fun! I loved it.

    I agree with you better to have a conversation with Somebody and get to know them. Rather then just flirting with someone you dont know
