Okay cool, I like that you're using methods, but it looks like the first method is too long, it's handling too much logic. Refactoring the blocks of text into their own methods would really help readability. Also, naming a variable the same as a method (carrying_on) can be confusing and cause unwanted errors. Lastly, just be careful with extra spaces it might be hard to see where blocks begin and end. Otherwise good job!
