    Nope. We don't trust you on this relationship going smoothly. Not with your record. :lol:

    Phoenix sounds like he is so lonely! Time to make some friends dear. If everyone is so friendly and outgoing it shouldn't be very hard. Sounds as if he likes school so that's good. Now if he would try to be a bit more outgoing I think that would help.Happy Birthday Cole bummer it wasn't more uplifting and happy for him.

    Great chapter! <3<3

    @haswh Definitely feeling lonely! And a little too insecure to talk to people too... but hopefully that can change!

    Phoenix has a reasonably happy birthday, thanks to Gigi and his family. But it definitely would have been happier if his family could have been there too :(

    I forgot to give a shoutout to @Julyvee94 today! She helped me with the little examples of culture shock that she experienced as a German who went to the US for Grad school last year. It was really interesting to learn about those subtle little differences (and I even got to see her reaction to the small talk firsthand ;):heart:)

    Thank you, July!

    I may need to find the post in this thread with the Carlton video since that sums up how Phoenix is feeling in this chapter.

    As nice as Gigi was being for Phee for his Birthday....I still dont like her to much, mkaing poor Phee feel like an idiot, I know shes jsut trying to help but shes only making it worse
  • CitizenErased14CitizenErased14 Posts: 12,187 Member
    @VanPelt81 LOL! Ah, Carlton. I wanna re-watch Fresh Prince now!

    @LadyTigress Yeah I don’t even know if she realizes how she makes him feel :( But it’s definitely not good of her to make him feel that way. He should speak up and tell her :(

    YAY! Go Phee! *in whisper* hopefully Gigi wont go ruining everything
  • kayt45kayt45 Posts: 434 Member
    Aw, yay for Phoenix! But as soon as Gigi realizes there’s other women in the group it’s gonna be a mess.
  • CitizenErased14CitizenErased14 Posts: 12,187 Member
    @LadyTigress @kayt45 Ha! I love that you both have similar worries of Gigi ruining things for Phee... hopefully that won’t be the case though! :grimace: Next chapter is a journal, but in it, Phee will mention Gigi’s feelings about his friends :)

    As a student who spent a year abroad (half of it in Germany), this was cool to read. I can totally empathise with Phoenix's position; it can be really lonely studying abroad. He's lucky to meet such a great group of people - would be nice if he could be friends with them. :smile:
  • CitizenErased14CitizenErased14 Posts: 12,187 Member
    @Xwanton I feel you there! I studied abroad in Spain during college (just 5 months, but still!) so I remember that loneliness and isolation (and utter terror of speaking to strangers and sounding dumb when you make mistakes! haha). I think that's awesome that you studied abroad as well. It's the best experience! :heart: (And now that Phee has some friends hopefully he'll feel the same way!)

    Thanks for reading! :heart:

    @CitizenErased14 I did Spain too! It was hard (even though I went as a language student: my speaking isn't the best, I lack confidence) but I wouldn't change the fact that I did it. It really helps you grow as a person. :smile: And I'm sure Phee will too, regardless of what happens.
  • CitizenErased14CitizenErased14 Posts: 12,187 Member
    That's so awesome @Xwanton ! What part of Spain did you study in? I was in Sevilla. And even though it was over 8 years ago (OMG :scream:) I still feel like that city owns a piece of my heart :heart: It's the most amazing place and I am hoping to go back and visit it during my honeymoon next year (so I can share it with my fiance (well, he'll be my husband then! LOL) too!) :heart:

    LMAO, it's true, you were there when I experienced my frist awkward small talk moment with the H&M cashier xD I was so confused for a few seconds xD

    I'm so glad Phoenix took my advice and made some friends. I guess Gigi did too. To bad Phoenix feels left out when her friend comes over but at least she gets along with his. I was a bit surprised she was though. I guess time will tell if it lasts. Now I'm a little worried about Tam and Jasper, is there trouble brewing?
    Great chapters!
  • CitizenErased14CitizenErased14 Posts: 12,187 Member
    @haswh Yes, Phoenix got your message ;):tongue: And yes, Gigi did make some friends as well! Which I think is something they both really needed. Things are going pretty well for these two right now (and hopefully it will stay that way!). As for Tam and Jasper... things probably not going quite as well, from the sound of it :/ They're two great kids and they really love each other, so hopefully they can get through this bump in the road!

    Glad you enjoyed these most recent chapters :blush:
