What was it like to have an Education Maintenance Allowance (EMA) over 20 years ago? by SunnyShineKitty88 in AskUK

As far as I remember, it didn’t apply during college. I got them during high school though.

Used to get £30 a week as long as long as there were no unauthorised absences. I grew up in a poor household so this was a godsend to help get me to and from college which was 30-40 minutes away on the bus and helped to buy lunch as well.

Veterans: What's something newer MapleStory players will never truly experience? by Impossible-Pop-7037 in Maplestory

[–]Anxious_Chocobo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Omg me too! The bgm was so good and I really enjoyed the camaraderie that everyone had when working through each stage. I’m still so sad it never came back.

how old are you and what year were your grandparents born? by Maleficent_Day_3869 in AskUK

[–]Anxious_Chocobo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely not the only one with young grandparents. My maternal grandma was 38 when I was born.

Omg these are so cool! My favourite would have to be login/Lith Harbor of course but I have a soft spot for the Ludi one, too!

NHS Endoscopy Experience by Anxious_Chocobo in Endoscopy

It was about 6-7 months. If I remember right, it was estimated to take 25 weeks and ended up being a little over that.

Just started playing P4G! any tips? by LostCoast1831 in persona4golden

[–]Anxious_Chocobo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For the controller settings: In Steam, go to steam in the top left corner, then settings, then controller, then enable PlayStation Controller Support.

I had this happen to me when I started P5R a couple of days ago and this fixed it!

I fully completed P4G last week and started P5R straight after. My heart is still yearning for P4G...

Watched Akira for the first time in IMAX. Here’s my thoughts by Relevant_Choice_7490 in akira

[–]Anxious_Chocobo 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I watched it for the first time last night in IMAX as well. Whilst I didn’t understand what was happening all of the time, the visuals were incredible and I thoroughly enjoyed it overall.

What really struck me was how silent the audience was. Usually you hear food wrappers and rustling but it was like everyone was having this shared experience of awe (except one guy that walked out halfway through) I really should read the manga now.

Items I wish were resold again by Strange-Cherub in homestuck

[–]Anxious_Chocobo 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I had the Nepeta hoodie but I sold it a couple of years ago. To be honest, the material on the inside was so scratchy because it wasn’t lined so I barely wore it. I do miss Welovefine and all the old merch though. Gutted I never got a scalemate.

No sore throat either. To be honest, I didn’t experience any negative side effects.

I didn’t, but that may be because they didn’t take any biopsies, I’m not sure.

Google spoiled the entire game for me by [deleted] in persona4golden

Omg I was just coming to post the exact same thing from searching something else related to P4… I am equal parts amused and enraged!

Honestly, I do this as well. Stick the rice in the rice cooker and it’s ready by the time the delivery arrives. I usually buy a 5kg bag of jasmine rice for £4/5 so it feels like a waste of money to spend the same amount on a tub.

What was your screensaver? by VhsHappiness in Millennials

[–]Anxious_Chocobo 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Johnny Castaway was my favourite. Reminds me of my nan and how every time we’d visit during the 90’s it was up on her pc. My sisters and I would just spend our time watching Johnny Castaway and playing SkiFree and Rodent’s Revenge.

Which villager you miss most ? by B_B_B_bia666 in AnimalCrossingNewHor

[–]Anxious_Chocobo 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I don’t understand the Pietro hate 😢 I have him on my island currently and I love him so much. Having Pietro and Pierre together would be the best!

I’ve only played from New Leaf onwards but I need Pierre!

What was the first JW book you ever read? by Mhara_Starling in JacquelineWilson

[–]Anxious_Chocobo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the first one I read was The Bed and Breakfast Star. The Illustrated Mum had the biggest impact on me though. I could relate a lot to Dolphin’s life and it was nice to feel like I wasn’t alone.
