Hey I got accepted as a HelpLINK Mentor! I'm so happy! Just wanted to let you know

Hmm, yeah. I usually do only reply topics/posts that I feel like I can answer properly... Part of my neverending perfectionism :/ I recently noticed the Unanswered Topics or something like that in the Search menu. Really helpful, plus, it brings me all around the forums. :P Sometimes I know what to answer to topics, but I just can't get it to proper English, as it isn't my mother tongue.

That'd be awesome I sure will contact you if I have a question on that...

I'm currently doing an ICT study, but that only keeps me busy Monday-Wednesday... I have to do something with a 4 day weekend, yet I always find myself having no time for the things that really have to be done... Congrats on the acceptance!

I guess I'll just keep it to Robin :P You can call me anything you want, I sometimes get random emails from friends in which I don't even have a name... haha

Thank you! =) I'm like you: I tend to reply to topics that I'm more informed about. Hence being a forum moderator for R&D and F&F. I'll post elsewhere on occasion... Education and Careers, general threads directed at TeenHelp as a whole, etc. but my true passion lies with interpersonal relationships of the platonic, familial, and romantic types. =D

I believe you will have no problem being accepted as a staff member. You don't have to give responses that are 3+ pages long... just treat them as you would a thread in the forums. =) I applied for staff as soon as I hit the one-month mark, and remember being so excited when I got the PM from Rob! =D I've been on staff since June of 2009, so feel free to contact me if you have any questions whatsoever (including stuff about secondary positions).

I hear you on the "always being busy". =P I've been dealing with graduate school applications/interviews - a lengthy process, but well worth the time and effort, as I've now been accepted into two PsyD (doctorate - clinical psychology) programs! TeenHelp is perfect for me, since I can just log on whenever I have the time. It's not like most organizations, where you have to have set hours for volunteering.

And you're welcomed to call me Robin, PSY, or "hey you!" xD

Thanks! Your advice is always great and helpful, too!

Haha okay, that did make my day! :P There are -some- stupid questions, but I'm usually too gentle to tell someone their question isn't one of the brightest...

Actually, I am very much considering becoming a staff member, I just need to be a member for a month before I can apply... And that will be this coming Monday! I've been looking at the application form and I've been answering the questions in my head during the last couple days... So yeah, I'm planning to do so

I'm always busy... haha It's 3:47am here, but I had too much Coca Cola, so it's my own fault I can't sleep... Nice meeting you! (and I'm Daniel, btw :P )

Hahaha! Well, looks like I beat you for befriending, but you beat me for the first VM! So I guess we're even. =D

It's about time I properly introduced myself. =P Hi, I'm Robin! But you already knew that. I'm glad to see you've become active on TeenHelp - you offer fantastic advice! Ever considered becoming a staff member? We could always use insightful people such as yourself for HelpLINK.

Oh, and I've been thinking about your signature for a few days... and have concluded that there ARE stupid questions. Stupid in the sense of, "If you just stopped and THINK for a second, you'd have your answer." =P For example, our professor said that the final would consist of 50 questions, 25 being from the lectures and 25 from the textbook. A student then raised their hand and asked, "So what you're saying is that about 50% of the questions will be from the lecture notes?" I immediately thought of your signature and struggled to avoid laughing out loud in class.

Anyway, no need to respond to this VM if you're busy. Just thought I'd finally get around to saying "hi", since you seem like a pretty cool guy!

Haha just after I pressed "Befriend PSY" I got an email saying you want to add -me- to your friendlist... :P
