@Livvy: Thank you for the welcome, glad I found MH.
@Christine: Twins are exciting. Funnily, I'm a fraternal twin with a slightly older brother, and our mother is an identical twin. And thanks for the information about the sandbox, still in the planning stages of a character.
@Olivia: Good luck next Friday! My pregnancy has been fine so far, bur I've been warned by family that it could change.
I was actually home-schooled so things like cliques are foreign to me. My parents moved a lot, so I always found something to talk about with everyone. As for my friends, one had a character name Dmitriy something, a Russian character. The other friend was working on a character named Aislinn Tierney. I remember that last name because it's my mother's last name.
@Sophie: Thank you for the welcome! I'm still plotting the character in my head, but I'll be sure to make a sandbox when she/he is fleshed out a little bit more.
