    Wow, working on a paper while in undergrad is impressive! That should definitely help your grad school application. Absolutely will send out a request ^.^

    @Mike9294 and @yumesoraki I’m not sure you guys fall into the nerd category, I’m thinking maybe the genius category! I’m feeling a little inferior right now 😂 Both of your work sounds awesome and rewarding. I admire you both for helping others!!

    I assure you that my major obsession of Harry Potter (Slytherin and Horned Serpent in particular, #hhmf), and love of anime (food anime lately honestly...though I need to catch back up on my Sailor Moon stuff, and I think I'm caught up on all things Gundam related) places me in that nerdy category. I think that because I like SEC football may toss some points against me though...

    I was just kidding 😂 About you not being a nerd but NOT about feeling intellectually inferior 😂

    Who’s your favorite SEC team?

    Being from Alabama there's 2 options right?. So I'm an Auburn fan, much to the chagrin of my Bama SO, lol.

    I knew that, but I didn’t want to offend! I, too, am an Auburn Fan! YAY! We can still be friends LOL

    I have no problem with Auburn. I didn't go to either school, so when Auburn plays, I root for them. When Alabama plays, I root for them. And when they play each other, I just hope for a really good game. We live just down the road from Auburn, and I have a lot of friends that went there.

    @elsie6hickman
    I will root for Bama when it's not against us (unless if it benefits AU, lol).

    @sdanemrtn Thanks! I've seen bits and pieces during the Olympics, but otherwise don't know that much.
    Let's have some fun!
    Let's!

    @yumesoraki Nice! Me too. I've kind of been slacking off with it over the past couple weeks, but I plan on picking back up with it again. I need to get ready for Let's Go Pikachu. Adding more friends will help get me going again too.

    If that was you that added me earlier today, was that a shiny eevee?! I wasn't lucky enough to get one during the last community event, but it's cool that you got one!

    I'm a nerd and PROUD OF IT! I'm into Star Wars (dark side), Star Trek (Jean Luc Picard is coming back, y'all!), Pokemon Go (actually is a motivator to get moving), PS4 (Skyrim and No Man's Sky), and of course anything on Discovery, History, and Science channels. If you haven't watched Battle Bots, you don't know what you're missing. Looking for some like minded nerds making their stamp on this weight loss universe!

    You had me at Star Trek and Picard. :smile:

    Anyone monkey around in FFXIV? I'm half tempted to check it out for the hell of it.

    Anyone have any favourite movies/shows you’ve been watching on Netflix?

    Criminal Minds lately..started maybe 2 months ago or so, on *coughs* season *coughs* 12. :D Binged all of Disenchantment and it was wonderful, but now I'm sad that I have to wait for season 2.

    Thanks for that suggestion! My friend has been begging me to start watching it and I’d totally forgotten!

    Good Morning everyone, just wanted to say hello and invite you to a really fantastic group called the FAT2FIT - Weight Loss Challenge and Support Group... This is a really great site for developing friendships and getting to know other MFP participants. Our motto is that we "We can do this, We will do this, Together!" and we really work to do just that...

    The challenge is comprised of five (5) teams of approximately 35 to 40 challengers per team (roughly 200 in the group each month). We all compete in a friendly team vs. team weight loss challenge. In addition, each team has its own chat room where teammates encourage, support, motivate and get to know each other. We have some really terrific friendships form. In addition, there are optional weekly group challenges, moderator challenges and even some individual team challenges. You can participate in these or not, it's entirely up to you.

    If you are really looking to add friends and want to become part of a family that will work with you helping motivate, encourage and support you - then you should really take a look and maybe give us a try, you'll be pleasantly surprised and glad you did... We would love to have you!

    I'm into video games like World of Warcraft (druids forever <3 I have like 5, can't wait for the Kul Tirans and Zandalari races to become available so I can make 2 more), Skyrim, a few of the Fallouts, Oblivion, Sims 3 & 4, etc. I love taking pictures of bugs and other naturey things, and I'm really into learning new and useless facts that no one cares about. I collect rocks and animal skulls (which I think freaks people out, but I paint them, so does that make it a little better? Probably not).

    My Instagram is @Maplerosemoth if y'all get a sudden craving to look at bugs under a macro lens. I love new friends and talking to people so feel free to add me on here or Instagram, whichever.

    P.S love looking at all the pics in this thread

    @Evieseriously I used to play WOW for years, but stopped when a few of my friends bailed. Hubby and I are thinking of picking it up again soon! I had the most fun as either a Warrior or Rogue (I like close combat I guess lol) and honestly liked the quests and levelling more than the raids or dungeons (some people just take it too seriously for me! lol)
