A few brief notes:

1) Good luck and best wishes to all the students gearing up to start school this week. While I know the end of summer vacation and the onset of the school year may seem like an event to anticipate with a sense of mounting dread instead of enthusiasm, remember that — in the words of South African activist and former president Nelson Mandela — "Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world."

Increasing access to education is one of the main pursuits of the Sandiego Foundation, and we share American statesman Benjamin Franklin's opinion that "an investment in knowledge pays the best interest." We pride ourselves on the number of scholarships we're able to offer to students of all ages and educational goals, as well as grants and other financial support. If you're getting ready for school and finding that you'd welcome some additional financial assistance in the coming semester, please don't hesitate to make contact; we still have plenty of scholarships as yet unawarded, and will continue to accept applications for them through the end of this week.

It's your job to chase your dreams. We at the Sandiego Foundation want nothing more than to help you get there.


2) Speaking of the Foundation, we're still in the process of getting our fall calendar of events fleshed out, and I'm always open to new ideas for community functions that people might like to see and take part in. One can only attend so many dinners, socials, and golf outings before things start getting tedious. So, a poll for the masses: what sort of event would you most like to see come to Recollé?

(At the risk of invoking a verbal cliché, I really would like to put the "fun" back into "fundraiser" on a much more regular basis.)


3) The usual daily mail contained a number of packages that I was expecting to see delivered, and a few unexpected ones marked with what seems to be the Retrospec logo. Experienced recipients, is there anything I should be particularly concerned about before I open these?


4) On a more personal note, I'm interested in hiring the services of a sketch artist, for a certain project I'm hoping to further. If you have the skills, time, and interest — or know someone who may be available for hire — please feel free to get in touch with me at your earliest convenience.

i got a necklace first
and then last month i got a giant key sword thing
the necklace doesnt do anything
but the keyblade has a bunch of powers and stuff

so like theyre pretty opposite of each other
how about you???
destiny_key: (lol whut)

[personal profile] destiny_key 2017-09-05 02:04 am (UTC)(link)
well i guess it could be anything???
do you remember anything you might get???
destiny_key: (hehe)

[personal profile] destiny_key 2017-09-07 12:08 am (UTC)(link)
well thats okay
maybe youll remember them eventually

i didnt remember the keyblade at all when i got it
but i used it a bunch when all the monsters were around
and so i remembered a bunch of stuff about it that way
so if you use the stuff you get a lot maybe youll remember it

not really actually???
its heavier than the practice swords i used to use
but it seems like its perfect for me???

i guess if it used to be mine then that makes sense though

and like i said it actually works really well
it cut through those monsters pretty good last month
