The not happy thread

Today is exam day. And guess what? That makes me unhappy.

 

Don't be unhappy, Lydia! You'll do great! And then the exam will be over.

 

Yeah...I hope I'll do great. I'm just so scared of forgetting things. But it's true, after that it will be over...

 

You'll do fine, Lydia. Because you...are Lydia!

 

I'm trying to write a 3000 word theatre play script for my university coursework portfolio and it's just not happening. Gah.

 

I'm not happy. I could have done my Spanish better if only I'd had more time for it... To me, two hours for two exams is rediculous, if you compare it to another exam I had once, which was way shorter (AND it was only one) and it was spread over the morning and some time in the midday. I just hope I won't have to do it again (or worse, have to do all of my exams again since they're connected).

 

I'll keep my fingers crossed for you and punch a random cat for some extra luck! (only for you).

 

I *really* envy those of you who tan or whose skin produces melanin. I got a sunburn from driving the 10 minutes it takes to get home from school.

 

The curse of being a redhead.

Jonanne can get burnt and rather than tan, she just stays red for a few weeks (though without the pain after a while).

 

I'm not a redhead, but I have the same problem. I feel for you, Em.

And Lydia, don't worry! I'm sure you did well.

I am tired. I don't mean tired as in "I need to take a nap, I'm sleepy." I mean I am exhausted from killing myself every day at work, then coming home and killing myself cleaning the house, keeping things organized, getting things done...with nothing to show for it. Our former assistant manager is now a store manager, and he just had an opening for the same position I'm in now. It's not a promotion, but I really, really want to transfer to his store. Problem is, I don't think my store manager will let me, and if he does, he'll probably just make both our lives hell because he'll be mad that I didn't want to stay at his store. Ah, the joys of office politics...

 

I'm not happy because this laptop (or Facebook) is all loopy and won't let me log onto Facebook.

 

I'm so not happy today as I've lost my phone and have to use a 5 year old one
I wouldn't mind so much but my one was a really good one!

 

Aw, thanks Speedy.

Yeah... but not enough.

And I'm sorry you're so tired, Heather... I hope things calm down a bit for you soon and that you get transferred to that store... I hope your store manager won't be that selfish.

Aw, that sucks! I hope you still find it back somewhere...

 

Am I allowed to hate men for a while?
No offence to male members here, but I'm just a bit disappointed in the opposite sex at the moment.

 

You've got my permission... hope you'll your hate towards them won't last too long.


I'm not happy cause I'm ill. And I strained my neck so I have to sit here with my head in this weird position which is, as you might guess, not so ideal for studying.

 

It's raining, thundering, and plain miserable outside. D=

 

A programme I want to watch that finished half an hour ago is still not up on BBCiplayer. Maybe I'm being a little impatient..

 

Ditto. Makes me sad. Plus my plans got canceled.

 

Today is one of those days that I'm just grumpy. People around me think it's hilarious, since I become a sarcasm monster when I'm in a bad mood. But today I just didn't even want to talk to anybody. I got sooo much done today, but when I looked to see what has to still be finished, I realized I'm nowhere near finished. This is my break time, but I'm in the mood to go rampage on something.

Plus, when I had a nice little break to play poker with some guys, one of them does a stupid move that gets him knocked out by me. It was a completely legitimate move for me to put him all in, which he of course calls, and I expectedly win. Then the kid gets all mad, starts yelling at me and flicking me off while walking out and slamming the door to the lounge. Seriously? He screwed up and it cost him five dollars, woopdy-****in'-do. I ended up losing five dollars due to bad luck later in the game, but it's not like I started yelling. I almost smacked that punk with the golf club I was holding (it was just in the lounge and I decided to pick it up for some reason...idk).

Also, I'm tired of being sick. When your professors email you asking if you've gotten better yet, you know you've had that damn cold for far too ****in' long.

 

Aw, I'm sorry. I know what it feels like when you have still so much to do... and I hope you get better soon- it has been taking way too long.

As for me... yeah, I'm sick. I've spent more time today in the bathroom than out of it, and I just feel so miserable. Besides that it's like the worst timing ever two, with me having 3 exams this week...

 

I am not happy because my dog is The Poop Eater. She just came up to me and tried to give me her I am so cute face and can I maybe give you a little kiss right here next your mouth and...

POOP SMELL!!!!!!!​

I seized. I panicked. I was on the phone with a client and the client heard dead air. I was like, "Did you just try to touch me with your poop tongue!?!"

And she looks at me with her little, "........what?........" eyes.

I was not impressed

 

I'm sad because I'm wondering whether I should continue to frequent this forum or not.

 

I don't understand why threads are suddenly closing. It's a major turn off to me and I can't help but feel like EXTREME PARENTING is going on here. This is sad to me because I have respected Mr. C, but just as he feels some members need to stop with superfluous posts, he needs to also be cognizant that he has to balance his opinion with the desires of a bunch of very loyal, long-time members who look to this site as an important part of their social life. It's a balancing act, I imagine, but right now the scales have tipped to far to one side.

So remember what Uncle Ben said (lol): "With great power comes great responsibility."

 

^ I don't get why either, Marina. Then again, I didn't see what went on to get them closed, so I don't know....but i'd like the tavern DJ back pleeeeease!


Ugh, so yesterday I leapt out of bed 'cause I thought I heard a wasp, and decided instead that it was just some guy mowing his lawn in the distance (lol) and that I was paranoid.

What do I wake up to today? A massive f/cking wasp climbing my window! It was HUGE! Luckily my bro was in to get it for me....but....uggghh *shudder*

I can't abide wasps, I really can't. They make me squirm.

 

There are far to many members irritated with this. I believe I can see the point of it, but it takes away the human element of the forum and turns it into a machine. Maybe this is what you want, but it seems like a hell of a good way to kill a forum. I used to get all my good music from the Tavern DJ. Now, of course, that's closed. The tavern itself closed last weekend, which really didn't change much of anything except annoy people for a weekend. Yes, I admit, I haven't been doing enough reviews and posting enough work, but I've been waiting for school to end. Too many are leaving, and too many are about to.

I'm not inciting a revolution. I'm not asking for universal changes. I just wanting the reigns dropped a little. So what if there are redundancies a little? Who really cares if something goes off topic for five or so posts, especially when it's literature related? Some of us have made some good friends on here, ones we don't want to lose because of their leaving. Just me voicing my concern.
