Thread: Chanti's Little Piece of BRM (Comments are loved)

On my first day on BRM Oh so long ago...it has been an entire week! I saw this forum for Journals and instantly wanted to make one. But one has to have priorities, and my first priority was getting some lovely RPs going. That priority has been fulfilled, and now I get to start on this. rubs hands together in delight Really I didn't know what to call this. Its part journalpart writing ideaspart ventingpart whatever I feel like. I can totally see myself putting in little tidbits from my amusing job in a call center Can I have your account number? Yeah I have it. awkward silence Do you want it? ....yes, please. That was a gem from today xD No one ever believes it when I tell them I love my job. But it's true! I am obnoxiously in love with my job. I love the company I work for, I love the interaction with my customers even the mean ones!, I love the hours I work, I love that the hours I work late shifts rock! allow me to read and write on my kindle or laptop between calls. I am very careful when it comes to planning vacation days, because two days is my max to be away from work without wanting to go back. Usually by the afternoon of the second day I am ready to go back. By the afternoon of the third day I am getting angsty. Four days and I will be plotting ways to cancel vacation and get back to work. My boss swears I need a hobby. She doesn't realize I practice my most enjoyable hobby - writing - at work! ANYWAY - about BRM. I have been RPing on f-list forever, even though I dislike the whole furry kink. I saw someone mention BRM somewhere on f-list, and came to check it out. I fell in absolute and total love. This place is freaking amazing. Talented, literate, creative writers? Oh yes, please! Let's see how fast I can sign up! I am so in love with this site - which I have barely begun to explore - I have already donated to help keep it up and plan to do so regularly as my finances allow. My first interaction with an RPer on BRM was a poor one. It sucks when you are very excited about RPing with someone and you get up the nerve to contact them, waiting in nervous anticipation for a response like a schoolgirl asking someone out to the sadie hawkins dance for the first time - only to get utterly crushed by an irritated response. It had never happened to me before to be honest, and it gave me a fresh insight and a new sympathy for people who ask me for an RP. Even when I need to let them down and let's face it, it happens from time to time I try to be gentle about it. After that terrible interaction though, I think I shall be a bit more kinder than before lol. God knows, my newfound patience has already been tested sorely once. Despite that bad start, I have absolutely adored every minute I have been on this site. I have four amazing RPs going one through email from this site, and one more in the works. I may take one or two more if they are too delicious to pass up and get dropped in my lap, but I think this is the perfect number for me without my RP starting to feel like a job lol. Does anyone else have a honeymoon period in an RP? When it has just started, and you are so ridiculously excited about it? You check the thread twenty times a day to see if your partner has responded, you are constantly plotting for it, your characters are alive and thriving in your head? I absolutely adore that period
