That is very difficult major. Would you consider moving to the US?I'm majoring in Industrial Design. As of right now, there is nothing else I see myself doing professionally.
The teacher told me I need to manage my time better but I'm not sure how much better it can get. I've been trying for the past 10 weeks and no matter what I do or how I change my schedule, the same outcome still remains. There just isn't enough time in the day. Even on the weekends, I work on homework from 9am to 10pm and I still end up not finishing everything.
There is a group chat but I don't fit in. I try but I feel like I'm bothering people. I often get ignored. I've been trying to spend time with others but they make me feel like I'm begging.
Go for it! My sister changed her name because it was more important for her to have the same name as her future children. I kept mine because it was such an integral part of my identity. Whatever decision you make, as long as it's right for you, is fine.That reminds me... my last name is Irish and I've been contemplating keeping it even when I get married because I am proud of my Irish ancestors.
I've thought about it but I'm very comfortable in Canada. The thought of living in any other country gives me a lot of anxiety. Even on vacations to other countries, I feel very trapped and want to come back to Canada almost immediately.That is very difficult major. Would you consider moving to the US?

Could be. Missouri (the state) is Souix for having to do with canoes. Can't remember what exactly.I traced my grandpa's line all the way back to the first American settler.

I can't go further than that because Ancestry wants money to let me access worldwide records. So rude! So I guess I'll start tracking other grandparents. See what else I've got in me. So far I've proven English and Swedish. I know my grandpa has some Indian blood, but I don't know where or how far back. It might be her:

That sounds kinda Indian, right? I'm new to this.
Awww, Darlin, my heart just breaks for you and your family. I am so, SO very sorry about this.Yes, he is right now.
Either, "wooden canoe people" or "he of the big canoe." Those are the closest literal translations (phonetic, of course).Could be. Missouri (the state) is Souix for having to do with canoes. Can't remember what exactly.
Yes, I knew that. My grandfather's name was William even though he was born and lived on the rez.but a lot of Indians chose or were forced to adopt "white" names.
No, I just had a really miserable tummy virus. I seriously considered taking a pillow and blanket into the bathroom, and just camping there, but getting up off the floor every 10 minutes was too much work. I slept in my recliner, which I can get out of faster, and is just as close to the necessary as my bed is. I'm fine now, still tired from all the lost sleep, but NOT sick at all!Mamanyt1953 What happened? Were you in hospital?

It's very November here today. Gray, chilly, and lots of wind.
I didn't know anyone survived. Thank you for the update.The last living survivor of the Hindenburg disaster just died. His name was Werner Doehner, and he was eight years old at the time.
Every time I see the disaster footage, I marvel at the fact that *anyone* survived that.
So you had the DNA test first? How did you go about tracing your ancestors from the test? Sounds so complicated since you don'tI'm glad you're feeling better!
So, this Ancestry thing might not be as much of a long shot as I thought it would be. I found a 2nd or 3rd cousin who I can't link to my grandma or grandpa. Which means there's a good chance he's related to my father. 2nd or 3rd for me means 1st or 2nd for him. His profile is managed by his girlfriend's brother. He's passing my e-mail address onto this cousin. So now I wait.
