Social Chatting -- October 2015

Ok I'm getting off now - TTYL!

Yeahhh... Unless you could listen to them at night or something. Idk. But that's super exciting that you're so close. :D

I usually lie in bed and think for an hour before I go to sleep. It's my only hour of free time during Bible Bee :p

^^ xP Although maybe not quite as long.

Sometimes I don't get to sleep until like shortly after midnight O.o

Same here, occasionally. My bedtime is supposed to be by 11 but I am not one who tends to go to sleep real fast.

Bye Zach! Happy studying!

Bye Zach!

Mine was 10….until Bible Bee hit. Then because of school and everything I usually don't get to bed until 10:30 or 11. Sometimes even as late as 11:30.

Ok bye now :)

You done any driving in the past couple of months? :)

No, just studying for it. =P So if you could be praying that I pass (or maybe that I don't xP) that would be awesome. =)

Oh, are you taking the test soon then?? I'll definitely pray!

Yeah, I think so. Thanks!!! xD

The actual license test, or the permit? (Since I remember you telling me you had something special where only your teacher could take you driving)

Just the permit one, thankfully!!! xP Yeah, so it's like the driving instructor can take you driving for a limited amount of time, then you have to get the permit, and then I think between six months and a year latter you have to get your license.

Haha! Do you need 70% to pass, or what? The permit test that I took was pretty easy. xD

I have no idea, though I wish I did. I could probably find it somewhere… =P I know, all the sample stuff looks crazy easy, the book is like a exposition on common sense and it doesn't sound very hard. But I keep freaking ^I don't know a better word to use there… :-/^ myself out (which is something I do all the time… :P)

The one that always makes me laugh is when it says "Make sure to give elderly people and people with young children enough time to cross the road". Oh. So everyone else I can run over.

Sorry. Had to go take care of my chickens real quick. :)

Okay. Mine was 70%, so it's probably around there. IKR?! I haven't studied the book in a while, but when I was, I remember thinking "They're even more long-winded than I am!!" xP But I guess it's really important to make sure these concepts are remembered. Haha, so I've noticed… ;P

xD Do you still hatch chicks all the time?

Probably… Lol! Yeah, I know they kind of have to do that, you can't assume that people already know something. Haha… =P

I tried this spring, but our incubator went bonkers and only three hatched, with just one hen among them. =\ My hens are also getting really old, and something's happened to a bunch of them - I only have six left, not counting the young one. I've been needing to bring in some new blood anyways, so I'm probably going to purchase some new chicks after Family Camp.

Aw no! :( You probably said before, and I probably didn't recognize the breed, but what kind of chickens do you have?

Rhode Island Reds, the production strain.

Oh! Well I know that breed then. =P We used to have one Rhode Island Red (along with a lot of other different types of chickens) and it was the prettiest bird. xP My dad got it because he really liked it. xP

pops in
Hi Matthew and Emily! xD
pops out

^I'd like to stay but can't =/^

Rachel!!! xD
Okay :(:( sniff Happy studying!

Ah, cool! Yes, they are really pretty. :) My young hen is actually black, it's the offspring of a hybrid that my grandma gave us a few years back. Somehow or other, at least one of her kind has managed to stay around. xD

Hye Rachel! x)

Yeah! xP Oh, that's neat! A friend of mine raises chicks and sells them, and she does pretty well with that! She raises turkeys too.

I've thought about doing that! Never really got the capacity though. I sell eggs to my family, that's it xD

Hi!

xD
She orders eggs online (I don't really know why, maybe they don't have enough chickens, or I also know she wanted a specific type), and keeps, at least some of the chicks in her room. xD

Hi!

We have chickens! (in case you didn't know :P)

I need to get going…
Happy studying, Matthew!
Talk to you later, Hannah!

Fun!! Chickens are great. xD

gets back on

Okay! Well, with some breeds, known as hybrids (the specific use of the term), you might have to order the eggs unless you have the specific parent breeds needed. Hybrids often need a mother of one specific breed and a father of another breed. They can still reproduce, but they won't reproduce after their own kind due to the unique makeup of their genes.
Oh, that's fun that she keeps them in her room. xD

Yeah, I think I've heard that :P

Aww, bye then! Happy studying =D

Hi Zach -ie-!

True, true. I don't remember what breed she wanted.
I know! It's so sweet to hear their little peeps xD And they're so soft and fluffy and fit right in the middle of your hand. Basically, they're typical chicks. :P

gtg. Bye everyone! hugs Emily
