A few short things.

My cat is having kittens, apparently. And apparently she came to me this way, which explains why she looks about the size of an American football down the middle.

A nice girl at the club made an interesting mistake of referring to me as Ota as a nickname instead of Otabek. In Kazakh it means something she likely didn't intend. So - I am sharing so no one else makes the similar mistake. Otabek is fine. No nicknames or whatever needed. Please.

Also, this place is feeling quiet. Especially at the rink. So if anyone wants to come skate with me... I'm there almost every afternoon. I'm not sure if others would enjoy it, but the offer is there. If you can't skate...I can show you. I'm not a teacher, but...getting comfortable on the ice is something I know.

[ Bill is used to smart phones, but she's not used to this sort of a network thing where people just go online to chat and ask questions about things... But, she's new here, and she's trying to fit in. Plus she has some questions that she definitely can't ask the Doctor about.

When the video starts, Bill's dressed in a drab dark outfit with her hair pulled back in a braided bun. Very dystopia. She does a little wave, then launches into her question. ]


Hi. I guess. My name's Bill, just arrived. Except the portal thing didn't exactly let me pack, so all I have to wear is... well, not exactly my style. Anyone know where's good to shop around here? Someplace not too expensive; I'm a university student now, I've got to keep a budget.

OH! [ She holds up a finger. ] If you were going to university, and could study anything you want, anything at all... What would you study? I'm at a bit of a loss, myself. Never actually done this officially before.

[ She pauses to think if she has anything else to add, but no. That's it. ]

Anyway, yeah. If you could help me out, that'd be brilliant. Cheers!
