Network

So I moved back to my parents’ today since the semester ended and I was just unpacking and it’s the weirdest thing, none of my socks are there. I know I packed then cause I checked to make sure I didn’t leave anything behind. But what’s even stranger is that any socks I had here at home are also missing. Is there a sock thief going around?

It's really weird thinking I'm almost done with college. When I first joined this network, I was trying to decide between schools. And complaining about my high school drama dept changing what we were doing for the end of the year. And now I'm a few months away from graduating, I have a job, I've been in a professional production, I've been an extra on film, and I have a following making videos online.

It's weird how much I've grown up in the past four years. And I'm just really glad I had all of you to help me along the way.

Caught my cat eating plastic wrappers. Food dish was full, he was just crunching on the plastic like it was the tastiest treat imaginable.

.. explains some of the things I've found in his litter box, actually.

Has anyone else ever walked into their apartment to find their significant other vacuuming, but they're wearing a hoodie backwards with one of your pets in the hood like a weird kangaroo pouch? Because that's exactly how I found Armin and Mopsy today. And apparently he does this all the time, and I'm worried for no reason?

Those peeps were so much fun yesterday!!!

It got old really fast, but it was totally the highlight of my day to have a bunch following me around places. I did eat one, but after the screaming I couldn't do it anymore.

My birthday present from my friends back home finally arrived. Along with it they sent me a bunch more snacks from home. And now my roommate has gotten better with boundaries so it's unlikely that he'll go through them. But I'm pretty sure he didn't find anything he liked last time so he probably wouldn't go through them anyway. Some people just don't have any taste. ;)

Also, I can't believe the semester is already almost over. It feels like it just started.

Welp. My dreams did a time jump. I'm 12 now. Better than 8, but still awkward.

I just had the best day. I was out earlier, was walking by the soccer field where a group of guys were playing and I overheard them saying that one of their friends had bailed on them so they were a man short. Normally I wouldn't just put myself out there and try to insert myself in someone else's game, but it's been so long since I've played that I couldn't help it. After I told them that I played they asked me to join them and I just spent the entire afternoon playing. I'm exhausted and want to just take a shower and go right to bed, but I actually have a paper I need to finish first. Lets hope I have enough energy left to focus on this paper. Either way, I don't regret spending the day playing soccer.

I can't believe that tomorrow is already Monday again.

I'm probably the last person to hear about this tik tok silhouette challenge. My friend Man did it and now he's been messaging me and keeps telling me I should do it and yeah, it's definitely not my thing, but he thinks it would be good for me, which I really don't see. Has anyone else done this or know anyone who has?

It's weird, I've been here now for a little over six months and part of me still isn't quite used to wearing my own clothes to class. What I mean is, all schools in Thailand, even university, have uniforms. So for the entire time I've been in school I've always worn a uniform and this is the first time I haven't. It's freeing, being able to wear whatever I want, but at the same time I'm still not fully used to it.

I think part of the reason I'm not totally used to it is because, in the dreams, I wear one to class. It's a much more casual one than some other schools, but it's still a uniform. So then I wake up and forget for a minute that I don't have to wear it.

My brother is especially happy about not having to wear a uniform, because the uniform for boys in high schools has shorts. So he especially likes being able to wear whatever he wants.

And I really don't know why I decided to make a post about uniforms except that I've finished all my work and I was bored.

Has anyone gotten something in their phone from their dreams? Last month there were a bunch of pictures added to my camera roll that I'd taken in the dreams. I didn't even know that was something that was possible. Has this happened to anyone else?

And now I'm curious about what's the strangest thing someone has gotten from their dreams.

Looks like DreamOctavia wants to help go after the Reapers, to find Lincoln, after all, he taught her how to fight. Then I ended up with Grounders chasing after me, wanting to kill me.

They really don't like intruders. Or someone associated with a traitor.

Dream me is sneaky as hell, or thinks she is, following the Grounders. The leader's name is Indra.

Great. Dream me is the bait for the Reapers. What FUN. Supposedly she's not afraid. Dream Octavia really just laid on the ground waiting for the Reapers to show up, so that they could be killed. And, holy hell... saved some Grounders, but haven't found Lincoln yet. Pretty sure Dream O made her first kill too.

She was pretty sure that Niko was going to kill her, but she proved herself to the Grounders, so they let her live. Far as she knows Lincoln's dead.

I had another weird dream. I'm still eight years old, and I got taken by something called a Changeling.

I still can't believe that it's actually snowing again. Having moved from Bangkok, I'd never actually seen real snow before until the other day and part of me feels like I'm dreaming or something. It's just so crazy. My brother told me that my mom was freaking out the other day because of it, which I can definitely believe. My mom is definitely the dramatic type. How long does this usually go on for?

I've seen other people talking about receiving things from their dreams. How is this possible? I woke up this morning to find a picture on my dresser, that Tine and I took in my dreams. I'll admit, I was really shocked to see it there. Of course my roommate saw me looking at it and started asking a bunch of questions about it. He's gotten better, but he's still so nosy. I'd call him a nuisance, but I feel like that's reserved for Tine.

I know that this is California, and under normal circimstances she won't need one. But this is also Orange County, and it never hurts to be prepared. Does anyone know where I can get cat sized sweaters? I know they make them for dogs, in fact I think I saw Ziggy hiding when Will mentioned them. But if we have a weird cold snap, my little house goblin will actually need one since she's hairless. And I just want to have them on hand before winter gets here.

Everyone in my dreams is extremely nosy. Especially my fan club. I still don't understand why I have a fan club. They call themselves #teamsarawatswives and they're very interested in why I've been hanging around with Tine. Like I can't have friends or something. No one asks why I hang around with Boss and Man.

I'm glad that I don't have to deal with anything like that in real life. I'd go crazy if I constantly had girls following me around and screaming when they saw me.

Good to know my dad is as much of a bad influence in the dreams as he is in real life.

Got hit by a semi, impaled on a fence an' dropped my coffee.

Been a day.

Hooray for me waking up IN the dreams. DreamOctavia had passed out in the last one. Some grounder, Niko, forced her to drink some weird ass liquid. I don't know what it was. But it look like a very light purple color. It was drink or die. So, yay for choices. Whatever he gave her caused her to pass out. He said if she could stand, then she should run.

LIKE HELL.

Dream me was determined to get to Lincoln. Literally took a rock to Niko's head and held him at... well, held a sword to his throat and forced him back to the camp. Some lady was there. She spoke Trig too. Not anything I understood, really. But it was basically a trade off. I give them their healer and they give me back Lincoln, at a certain point.

She came through. Brought Lincoln to the rendezvous point. In which dream me APOLOGIZED to Niko. (He said Lincoln was his friend)

And then Reapers came out of nowhere.

AND dream me is back to being knocked out again.

That? That was a wild ride and a half.

October 31st is one of my favorite things about America.

Rudely my siblings have a ~thing with their mom on Saturday. I know Huan-ge is back but... you wouldn't make me spend my birthday alone would you??

These dreams everyone talks about, do they feel extremely real? Because if they do, then I'm pretty sure I had one. I'll be honestly, it was kind of boring. Nothing exciting like everyone else talks about. I was just back home, in Bangkok, going to University and my friends, Boss and Man were there. What was kind of interesting is that I apparently had a fan club. Everywhere I went, on campus, girls were waiting or following me around and screaming like crazy. I'm just a regular guy so I don't understand why I have a fan club, but I'm apparently used to it and just ignore it, but then this guy called Tine starts following me around and wants me to do something for him, but I basically ignore him too until he confronts me, in the bathroom and ends up breaking my phone so I take his until he fixes mine.

I was hoping for something a little more exciting, the way everyone talks about the dreams, but I am curious about what Tine wants.

So, that arrow that I had in me? Lincoln took it out. It was poisoned and yay for delirium. He's also teaching me Grounder language.

Ai laik Okteivia kom Skaikru en ai gaf gouthru klir

It's something that he had me repeating over and over again until I got it right, supposedly I wasn't the first time around. Though, I couldn't tell you what I'd said before or what it meant. Just know that he kept correcting me.

He also took me to his village which isn't a good thing, not when they'll see him as a traitor and they could kill him. I know he was doing it so I could be cured, but he could die. I don't want him to die.

So my best friends back home sent me a package about a week ago with a bunch of snacks that I obviously can't get here. I came back to my room this afternoon and my roommate was going through the box and didn't seem to think it was a big deal. We said that since we're roommates we should share stuff, but I seem to be the only one with stuff. Am I overreacting?

I had the strangest thing happen to me earlier. I went to get something to eat after my last class and I was on the phone with my brother while I was eating, just minding my own business. I hang up the phone and almost immediately this girl, who had been sitting nearby, comes over and tells me that I have really perfect teeth. I know I have pretty good teeth, but I've never had a random person come over and tell me that before. So I thanked her and told her I had to go and left.

Has anyone ever had anyone randomly compliment their teeth before?

I don't know what I'm doing here, but I figured it could be interesting, based off the things I read when I found this. I don't know if I believe the things I read, but I'd be lying if I said I wasn't intrigued.

Anyway, I'm Sarawat. Moved here with my family in August, from Bangkok and I'm going to Occidental College.

Now time for an ice breaker question. If you were an Olympic athlete, what sport would you compete in? For me, it'd be football; well soccer. Been playing since I was a kid so that's the sport I'd want to compete in in the Olympics.
