I kind  of don't want to relive any of the days of my life. If I have to live a day i want it to be new.
yeah good point how about the day you got accepted to byu!
Uh... that wasn't a particularly exciting day. Plus I was still in high school, I don't really want to go back there.
yeah me either I remember the day I got my decision from byu
Would you want to relive it?
no not at all they told me no!
But you made it here, what about that day?
oh that day came like 2 years later when I reapplied after my mission that was a much better day
Yeah, I imagine so.
i was also on my mission so it was a good day in that sense as well how did you get the name ember? It is a cool name!
It's the name of one of my main characters for the story I am writing. Or rather, attempting to write.
oh interesting that is really cool so you are a writer then? what are your goals?
I want to be. So I'd say a minor goal is to publish a novel. How about you?
I am majoring in Applied mathematics and my goal is to get a job at a team working for google
Whoa. Google would be a way fun place to work!
yeah i hear it has the best work place environment in the world I am super stoked but i have to get an internship there first that will be the hard part
Well, definitely wishing you luck!
thanks you too what is your book about?
It's a fantasy story, a girl with powers is trying to avoid being grabbed by either of two fighting factions.
interesting how will it end?
She ends up joining one to get revenge on someone who destroyed her life.
oh interesting which one?
Uh... the better one? More military less rebellion. The others are kind of awful people who kidnap people to make them fight with them.
oh thats cool so it is more like the good guys and the bad guys
Neither side is... super good. The side she joins has it's own share of issues. But it was the side she could live with.
Interesting does anyone important die?
Important to Ember? Unfortunately, yes.
who?
One of the guys that becomes her friend, he dies saving his brother. Her dad does, but frankly he deserves it.
her dad? Who is he and why is he a bad guy?
Uh... he kind of sold her when she was young to gain political favor. Kids with powers sold really well on the black market.
Oh wow that is cruel and kind of messed up I mean who sells chosen children on the black market for a petty price? It sounds like you are alluding to the coat of many colors
That wasn't my intention. But I definitely see the connection. It's slightly dystopia. But lot of fantasy stories are.
Oh yeah have you ever read enclave? It is a dystopian series
I don't think I have? Is it good?
it is kind of good
Would you recommend it?
kind of interesting because there are classes of people in the society and one class are called the breeders and there are some bad parts of the book that revolve around them although i don't think it was really intended that way it is just a little too descriptive for my taste it is kind of like divergent a little
Yeah. I can see how that might end up being a little... not good.
yeah Have you read divergent though? You have to have read divergent haha
Nope. Unfortunately not.
whattt no way!!!! what dystopian novels and series have your read then? Do you have one that is your favorite?
Well, hunger games, of course. Uh, let me see, 1984. A Brave New World
oh yeah hunger games i read all of those I was really disappointed with how it ended what were your thoughts about it?
I was pretty disappointed with the ending too. It just seemed, kind of abrupt.
yeah and i didn't want all that the books had worked to preserve to die and she did she was like the crown jewel the only one who was different, the reason why they were fighting and all of the sudden she is killed? Not fair
Right! Ah, that killed me! Especially since it implicated Galen. Like... Galen was supposed to be protecting primrose!
yeah seriously divergent is kind of sad too. you should read the series
I'll have to take a trip to the library.
yeah it is good wait are you at byu yet or is that starting next semester? So people on here are actual byu students and i forget
I'm at BYU right now. I'm taking classes Spring term.
oh sweet me too what classes are you taking?
PR classes.
Public relations?
Yep!
sweet I was a bit worried I got the acronym wrong what are those classes like? Are they just about writing a bunch of essays or what? I don't really understand
Fairly interesting. One of them focuses on how to use Social a media to  create good relationships between the public and your company.
oh interesting So like a class on facebook? That is legit
Facebook, Instagram, Twitter... all of that.
which one is the most important to the success of the company?
No, how each of them can be important in relating to different demographics.
oh interesting
You'd reach different audiences through different mediums.
what demographics are in each of them?
...well, I don't know yet... Younger audiences tend to be found on Instagram, Facebook has a slightly older demographic. Twitter is rather varied.
interesting I have never really understood the use of twitter i am kind of just starting to understand it
I've never understood Twitter either.
like it is about making stuff go viral i guess?
It's one of the reasons I took the class, I do not understand social media. No, I'm better at understanding fiction. Not real life.
yeah social media is its own little world to be honest it makes no sense
