I spend probably 30% of my day in a daze. I take what I daydream about and make it into fantasy novels, I write in my spare time. I've come up with so many fiction characters, they almost feel like real people to me as I've thought about them everyday for years.

Let me know if my posts are helpful or if you like them. That's what I'm here for.
I am currently lurking more than I am posting. I haven't gone anywhere.
"Your work is going to fill a large part of your life, and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work. And the only way to do great work is to love what you do. If you haven't found it yet, keep looking. Don't settle. As with all matters of the heart, you'll know when you find it." -Steve Jobs
You don't get a girlfriend by just thinking about it what
What yourself Dex. Someone who tells themselves they wont get something probably wont because they don't believe they will. Basic psychology. People should be more positive with what they tell themselves, it's proven to "help".
You don't get in a relationship because you tell yourself you will, you do it by being appealing somehow (which acting all confident like that does not achieve).
For starters I didn't mention being overly confident. I realize there is no definite skill to getting into a relationship, Dex. Yes, some variety of appeal helps, but it doesn't help to say negative things about yourself because that will only bring you down, and being down on yourself isn't going to improve a persons performance in any matter, it isn't going to help self esteem, and it definitely isn't going to make someone seem more attractive or appealing either. Anyway, that's just my opinion, a similar opinion that I agree with is in the spoiler.
Change your self-talk - Easier said than done, but definitely
worth working on. Try by countering your negative
thoughts with positive or more realistic ones. For example,
if you think “I’ll never be able to do this”, ask yourself “is
there anything I can do that will help me be able to do
this?” “Is there anyone I can ask for help with this task?”
Avoid speaking in finite language or jumping to
conclusions and try and look for things that might add a
better spin to a tough situation.
The more you work on improving your self-talk the better
you will get. It’s kind of like practicing an instrument or
going to sports training, it won’t be easy to start with but
will get better with time. It might not seem like much, but
self-talk is a really important part of our self-esteem and
confidence. By working on getting more positive, or at
least, more accurate self-talk, you’re more likely to get
things done and feel more in control of stuff that’s going
on in your life. https://student.unsw.edu.au/sites/all/files/news_file_attachments/CAPS March e-newsletter Self-Talk 2016.pdf

Either or. I just really like the aesthetic of a sunburst Jazz, rosewood neck, pearloid block fret inlays, a red tortoiseshell pickguard and no pickup covers (I imagine they'd just get in the way).
And of course the italic pre-1975 Jazz Bass logo, you Know, the really big one.
Haha yeah that used to be my dream bass. Sunburst bodies + red tortoiseshell pickguards are gorgeous. I do also love block inlays. I remember a couple years ago I bought a Squier VM Jazz bass. I still have it and it still plays very well, was like 300 bucks. I bought a pickup cover for the neck pickup because I wanted the "vintage aesthetic" but it wasn't able to be screwed on because it was specifically for Fenders. Shame.
Hmm. I can't see any logical reason as to why it couldn't be screwed on.
The height of the pickups on my jazz are too high for the cover, so you'd run into the difficulty of having certain strings ringing out at inappropriate times. Also there was something involving the wires that connected the pickups to the rest of the electronics...
Ah... All I do is day dream about several characters, OCs or not, fighting/sparring. It's always entertaining to think of fighting styles with unconventional weapons.
I used to daydream more....
Recently I daydream about having enough money that me and my family would never have to worry about financial problems ever again.
I spend probably 30% of my day in a daze. I take what I daydream about and make it into fantasy novels, I write in my spare time. I've come up with so many fiction characters, they almost feel like real people to me as I've thought about them everyday for years.
Landing my dream job so that I make enough money to can fuel my gaming hunger and so that my girlfriend can be a future stay at home mom.
I don't daydream much, but sometimes about moving to some far away country, starting a farm and never worrying about anything again.
All that is gold does not glitter, Not all those who wander are lost
The old that is strong does not wither, Deep roots are not reached by the frost
From the ashes a fire shall be woken, A light from the shadows shall spring
Renewed shall be the blade that was broken, The crownless again shall be king
Coming up with stories and ideas or thinking about life or imagining myself in situations that are impossible.
You can just call me Canary.
How not to look like a total fool in the forum games
Ideas regarding the last video game I played, or anime characters if I'm really bored.exactly what you would expect :-)

Starting life anew... Starting over fresh again. Everything new, detached from the old life.
I daydream about a lot of things... though mostly about my little world of fiction.
I post pretty rarely nowadays. Gosh, I wish this place weren't so... empty...
getting a gf but that'll never happen :/ rip
Well no, you wont if you keep telling yourself that.
What yourself Dex. Someone who tells themselves they wont get something probably wont because they don't believe they will. Basic psychology. People should be more positive with what they tell themselves, it's proven to "help".
Nice effort on the humor tho.

My lawyer told me it's not safe to say...
Interesting......
An actual model from the 70s or the models that just have the aesthetic?

General ideas and stories, sometimes large amounts of scientific information or theories. Many are more prevalent and ceaseless than others.
Oh, and what the guy above me said, especially that.
I am a friend of all Snow Golem kind.
