Let’s chat about your day? What have you done so far with your day? How is it going so far and what are looking forward to do next?
I’m planning to sleep my afternoon off because I’m having a cold, been sick for a few days and sleeping really a lot to recover from it : fever, coughing, sore throat and muscles , migraines, dizziness and feeling like throwing up my food and drinks. I think I have the flu. It’s so cold and the weather is horrible lately. But I’m mostly in bed sleeping or laying down these days.

I wonder if I should merge this with the random discussion thread or keep it the way it is. The random discussion thread could include events in your life but this thread is specifically dedicated to those.
I've been on fall break since the end of Friday's class, but have to go back to college tomorrow. Everything seems to be going quite well academic-wise; I'm not struggling in any classes like I have been in previous semesters.

Normally, we did post such comments in the Random Discussion thread before.
On the other hand, Infinity Blade has a point that these threads are technically separate. I guess we can see how this evolves.
I had my first proper course this semester. After that, I went to the doctor and struggled to explain my issues properly (mostly due to my lack of social/communicative skills; it's so much easier on the Internet).

As some of you already know, I got a warning on SpaceBattles for doing something that the rules did not outright state was breaching them.
On the plus side, maybe I can post Dunkleosteus terrestrialis vs Rex-Wrecker there.
As for WoA, I sincerely hope nobody else votes jaguar against Orinoco crocodile, I may make more Pliosaurus matchups, and valkyrie seems oddly inactive even after conversing on Discord

What Happened to Me Today: -The southern mammoth now has 2 votes on SpaceBattles against a Supersaurus over 3 times its size. That is quite frankly, in my opinion, downright ludicrous -Same goes for Carcharodontosaurus vs Purussaurus on there; the poll is 3 to 1 in favor of Purussaurus. What's more, apparently a 6.2 ton Purussaurus against an 8 ton Carcharodontosaurus on land is a mismatch in favor of the former because OnE hAs VeRy VuLnErAbLe LeGs AnD nEeDs To AlMoSt OvErBaLaNcE tO rEaCh DoWn EnOuGh To BiTe; tHe OtHeR hAs An ArMoUrEd ShElL aNd Is AbLe To BiTe AnD rOlL aNd TaKe DoWn LaRgEr PrEy. Honestly, I feel as if the entirety of SpaceBattles would probably underrate dinosaurs given the chance. And I have seen this before; a Kodiak bear, white rhino, Gustave, hippopotamus, and (yes, really) a SWARM OF BEES were viewed as matches for Tyrannosaurus rex. Just....no -I shall try asking if I can do fantasy gauntlets on SpaceBattles. That might work. -I've seen someone on Quora state that Tyrannosaurus beats Spinosaurus in deep water due to stronger bite force. Like...... -Unfortunately, as some of you may have noticed, I've pretty much run out of good images for the pictorals. Nowadays they've pretty much all already been posted -That being said, I found this neat crocodile vs sawfish snapshot: -Looks like my WoA advertisement on All Kinds of Everything is working!

Good morning all, had about 13 hours sleep last night, enjoying my usual breakfast and morning coffee.

More of what happened today: -Seems like jaguar vs Orinoco crocodile and Carcharodontosaurus vs Purussaurus, on here and SpaceBattles respectively, are the opposites of what they should be; people are backing the jaguar against the crocodile and Purussaurus against Carcharodontosaurus. -On a related note, the Carcharodontosaurus vs Purussaurus debate will probably heat up soon; I'm up against 2 people at once. Should be exciting. -I will try and make a gauntlet for Ursus panthera's eland on SpaceBattles with brolyeuphyfusion's screenshot as my evidence -Elasmosaurus vs Castoroides is thinking way, way, WAY outside the box. It's also the only matchup I can think of where one animal dwarfs the other by a factor of 100 but both have good odds of winning. -Good thing valkyrie introduced themselves. I'm sure glad to have them here.
Man, there's a lot of stuff happening today!

What Happened Today: -SpaceBattles seems to be going quite smoothly, albeit with a few lumps. I seem to have won the debate for Carcharodontosaurus vs Purussaurus -BUT Dunkleosteus terrestrialis vs Rex Wrecker is heating up; 2 people voted for Terrestrialis and I'm debating them, plus there was some confusion on some other user's part about Terrestrialis' origin that has yet to be cleared up. -I think I'll make a Rex-Wrecker gauntlet on SpaceBattles with some of my/creature's/GreenArrow's characters that I can categorize -Discord is going surprisingly well! And someone actually bought the 24 meter, 19 ton Mamenchisaurus sinocanadorum as the max size!

Today was rather exhausting, but at least I got an introduction in R, that program seemingly all people with a paleontology/geology focus but me know.
Actually, it's just theropod and Derdadort, but I'm glad to have learned it nonetheless.

Today, I discovered exactly how bad felid fanatics are. Like I said earlier, I think they can give Tyrannosaurus fanboys a very real run for their money!

Today I got up and went to college early in the morning because my brother had to get to work by a certain time (7:30 I presume), but I had to be a bit early to college today anyway. I was going to speak with my advisor about classes for next semester, but because I didn't prepare and look for anything myself I had to reschedule it for Monday. We juniors register starting on Thursday of next week, so I have to get my classes approved by my advisor soon.
I picked enough courses for 16 credits next semester, but I'm not sure about my choices. I picked those out while there were plenty of seats left for all of them, but most are either new territory, territory I find myself with a shaky track record in, or territory I never planned on entering before. I don't think I'll utterly fail in any of them, but still.

Oh boy.
Looks like a SpaceBattles repeat may be happening on AKOE except with southern mammoth vs Supersaurus. This ought to be interesting.

I don't think I'll utterly fail in any of them, but still. I was waitlisted for one of these courses a while back, so I picked a new one that I could confidently get into. I guess I’ll be taking developmental biology next year. After this semester it’s human anatomy.

Yesterday the person responsible for garbage disposal apparently got so annoyed by my dorm’s apparent inability to not throw plastic in with the organic waste that he/she put a chain with a padlock on our organic waste container.
I fully empathize with their frustrations, considering I feel the same every time I open up that container and see a bunch of bags and bottles in it. But still I can’t get over how unbelievably stupid that is. Not just childish, but actively counterproductive. So you are angry people keep throwing the wrong kind of trash in the container? Great, just lock up the container so putting in the right kind of trash is physically impossible. That totally won’t lead to the same people who already don’t care about separating their trash just throwing that in another container where it is equally misplaced…or just out on the street instead. Whoever locked up that container is their own worst enemy.
Long story short, I learned how to pick a lock today.

Last night was the first time I got to sleep in my own bedroom in my new house. The nights before I was sleeping in the basement with the rest of my family. I still need to get my bed and a new desk in, but I'm finally living more or less normally again.
