    it was 94 questions long, and I was on 14. and no, your not allowed to re-do a test or exam. I did email my professor and hopefully I charmed him into letting me re-do it.

    Perhaps. Though I did bring this on myself really. I had ignored the class completely the entire semester till yesterday (all the work must be done by today) so I basically did a whole college course in two days. If I had paced myself, I wouldn't have been taking my final exam when Verizon decided to screw me over for some reason.

    So my professor has totally made my day and reset my exam for me and let me take it, so everything is officially done :love: so aside from the fact I have the plague, I'm pretty happy now.

    I am not happy because i just had a surreal experience tonight at work. It's a thursday so the place wasn't very busy, and about 10pm a guy comes in shoves a gun in my face and demands the money. He took the tip jar as well. I left a statement with the police and came home, I'm still shaken. I depend on tips... Merry F****** Christmas.

    today I am really upset and can't hold back the tears anymore. I am sick and tired of trying hard to do the right thing by everyone else while they do nothing but hurt me and treat me like a door mat. I used to think I deserved better, but now I honestly couldn't care less.

    Aww, Torana. :( That's a horrible thing, and please don't think that way, of course you deserve better. I don't 'know' you very well, but you seem like a very sweet and helpful person to me - the people around you should try to see that. I'm sorry they're like that. :(

    Thank you Lydia. I'm just having a really bad day today. It started wonderful but my sister's partner has literally turned my family's day upside down. He was taking cheap shots at Dan lastnight and has continued after we left my parents house. His problem is that he has to stir trouble for someone to make himself feel better about his pathetic existence. It's really sad because it is ruining our Christmas before it even starts. We were really looking forward to it, being our first Christmas together, but this fool is turning it into a nightmare for us. We are so hurt by what he is doing that we don't even want to be with my family for Christmas this year. All I wanted was a nice Christmas, one that wasn't full of fights and petty arguments, one where no one was left in tears, one where I wasn't left crying at the end of the day. It has even arrived yet and I've already been brought to tears and the arguments have started.

    I hate the festive season. I just wish once, just once, I could have one Christmas where everyone celebrates together as a happy family. A Christmas where we all can come together and do the family thing. Christmas hasn't been a very joyous occasion for me since I was very young, and this Christmas was going to be just that. A Christmas to remember, to think back to and smile and talk about for months. Why does it always have to be something I dread? Something I want 'NOT' to come?

    I think all my Christmas Spirit has been chewed up, swallowed, thrown up and crapped all over. I hate this time of year and it all leads up to the worst month of the year. January...

    I want to go to sleep and be woken up on the 1st of February. :( I feel like the Christmas Grinch. :(

    Damn, Tor...

    I wish there was something we can do. *resists urge to make subtle hints of "dealing" with douchebag relatives in "interesting" ways* Don't mean to be rude, but why did your sister marry this man? What does she see in him?

    But look at it this way: It's the first christmas for that lil' wonderful baby Tobin in your avvie. What are you gonna get him for X-mas?

    Good lord, Sid. How terrifying!

    Looking back on mistakes I've made, I sometimes become physically ill with shame. This is one of those times.

    @ Lava.

    Whatever it is you did, there's nothing you can do about it now. Just learn from it. If you'd like, you can share it with us.

    I've done things I'm not proud of like nearly stabbed a kid's eye out with a pencil when I wasn't paying attention, threatening to kill someone I was pissed at, and nearly poked out my dog's eye when playing with an old fencing sword. I mean, it literally grazed the corner.
