[QUOTE=jstec3;1029986493]Good to hear bro^^^
[/QUOTE]
Thanks man!
[QUOTE=superstar08;1029987363]Congrats on the job and that financial aid. I'm in school myself and I couldn't imagine going through that. Keep up the hard work brah good things come to those who deserve it.[/QUOTE]
Yeah it was definitely a rough few months up until this point, not gonna lie. But I persevered through it and it all worked out up until now. I'm not finished yet obviously, but I certainly have a renewed sense of optimism about me. Thanks brah!
[QUOTE=iamgenus;1029989383]Good news TCB! Keep at it. What degree you pursuing again?[/QUOTE]
Thanks bro! I'm doing Elementary Education, i'm a couple of years away from fully finishing it, with student teaching and everything, so i'm gonna just bust my ass off at school, study what needs to be studied, take it seriously, go to work on time and make money, and just keep my eye on the prize until I make it where I want to be. I'll still have fun along the way, no doubt, but dedication to school and work naturally means less time spent going out, on the computer, etc. so I probably won't be as involved in this thread in a few weeks, but i'll be sure to stop by as often as I can, post, buy/sell/trade some fragrances, host a split or two, and see how everyone is doing. I appreciate the kind words, take care man!

What if you were 37? Any advice/suggestions for us older brahs? Most recent run I've done was last summer with Erase/Endosurge/Triazole/Bioforge. Good stuff, but would like something a little more powerful. Orange Triad, Green Mag and purple wrath are usually a staple for me. Kind of a Controlled Labs junkie.

[QUOTE=TheCokeBaron;1029969043][B]If you're in a hurry, TL;DR, then no worries, feel free to skip my post. However if you have 5 minutes to read, i'd appreciate it if you guys would do so.[/B] I am writing some updates, both for cologne and my personal life, which involves several members in this thread, the split, my personal finances, and even a chance to win some free cologne and goodies for some members.
Just wanted to drop by, since I haven't been posting for a few days, and update you guys on a couple of things. I have 2 spots left for Liquid Ass, so if you would like a sample, please PM me your shipping information, INCLUDING your real full name. I have had a couple of people PM me just their address and told me to use their username or some fake or nickname. I will not ship to anyone who does not provide me with their full name. I have done this in the past and it not only raises red flags when you ship to "BlueFlame84" and they ask you why you don't use a name at the post office, and at the least, it is a pain in the ass because sometimes I would get the package as a return-to-sender and undelivered simply because there was no name or a fake name.
Second, I know it is taking a long time for this Liquid Ass split to finish. Well, I am a full-time student and had no job, so buying decanting supplies and shipping materials and paying the costs for 15-20 people is actually not as cheap as you'd think. Plus I am doing this for FREE, so if you can't wait, please let me know and i'll remove you off my list and give your spot to someone who is patient and can wait a few weeks for me to get enough money and time to get it all sorted out and shipped.
Okay, now on a positive note. Some of you guys who kept up with the past CC threads and my posts know that I had a messy situation with my school, which led to my financial aid being terminated. Then I lost my job and have been trying to just 'get by' for the last few months. It was really tough at some points, extremely stressful to make ends meet for the most part, and I got in countless arguments with people, including my parents and friends, who would give me crap for not being able to go out, or not having money to pay for this or that, etc. But it all changed now. First, I got my financial aid REINSTATED! [B]YEAH BUDDY![/B] This doesn't mean that I am going to be getting back any money. On the contrary, I owe 2.5K retroactively to my school, but the good part is the fact that because it is reinstated, I can continue going to school and finishing off my education. Had it not been reinstated, I honestly don't know what I would have done. Would not have been able to go to school AND would have to start paying off the debt with no deferment period. Second, I got a NEW JOB today, [B]YEAH BUDDY x2!![/B] I got it at Whole Foods. I get paid 11 dollars an hour and I have a ton of cool benefits. I will finally have a chance to make some decent money, which will be used to pay off my debt, to buy cologne, to pay off my school, to have fun, etc. But as promised, if anyone remembers in the last thread, I said that if my financial aid got re-instated and I got a job, I would buy a random person in this CC thread any cologne or colognes of their choice, up to $50. And I will stay true to this promise because I received a lot of support from members in this thread, from wishing me good luck, to actually sending me free samples and some people even took their time to drive down to my house and lent me a bunch of expensive niche decants. For this I am very grateful. Whenever people help me in a tough time and when I am struggling, I don't forget. You guys who helped me know who you are, and for your help i'll definitely return the favor very soon. In fact, as soon as I get my first paycheck and pay off a bit of debt and manage to save up a bit of disposable income, expect something nice to show up on your guys' doorsteps :)
Thanks again for the support misc. I will be completing the Liquid Ass split within the next few weeks and will also announce the $50 winner in the next few weeks as well. Also, I will send out some surprise gifts to certain members (like I said, you guys know who you are) as soon as I get a couple of steady paychecks going.

[QUOTE=WaterDrinking;1030038113]Thats a pretty big bottle, you should split some to us Ontario brahs ;)[/QUOTE]
There are better people than i who can split. I got it for a good price $109 for 120ml so I hope to use it more often than I use aventus. Wont end up feeling bad about just spraying to chill etc
i do want to buy some sample atomizers though to share some scents with people.

Thank you sir! I'll keep you and all the brahs updated on how everything goes. As I said, within a month or so, I should be well-established in the company, getting regular hours and checks and have it as a routine, at which point, I can afford to actually give back and do something nice for those who were there for me during my struggle. Can't wait to do this more than anything.

Damn, Mugler store is fast! Just ordered three days ago and it got delivered yesterday. Shipped from Southaven, MS to Michigan. Strange thing is that it hasn't came out of my account yet.
Only men's sample they had was a-men, so got two samples for the wife. Both are great spring/summer scents if anyone is looking for a frag for their lady. A-men is pretty good. Only ever smelled it on a card. Opening seemed better on skin, but still pretty heavy. Smells good after that though.
Started with a bottle of issey, 1 million, la nuit, & curve, and now thanks to this thread, I've got 23 different frags (although 11 are samples), with three more 10mls on the way. I would like to think I'm done for a minute, but you all know how that goes...lulz

Perfect for Canada bro's as Mugler doesn't ship here. I have about 35mls of Pure Malt left... I don't think I'll be able to resist this one. If they end putting Pure Malt out of circulation again and I run out I'll be pissed. Thank you for the heads up brother.
