    This might sound harsh, but you need to man up. Talking about your 'inablility' to move on is just ridiculous; if she can move on, then so can you. If you keep fretting about your ex you only compound your problems. maybe a one night stand is what you need ;)

    This is awful, i really feel for you :confused: Like somebody else said, it can only get better. However, i would say it's important not to show these kind of feelings to anyone apart from your family maybe. Asking why no one wants to hang out with you would maybe come across as clingy and desperate to others, even though of course, this may not be the case. It's harder than it sounds, but if you try and be at ease with yourself and not ask these kinds of questions, these kind of things sort themselves out naturally. Although like someone said, it wouldn't be a bad idea to immerse yourself in positive things!

    I'm sorry Torana. I hope your friend recovers! Sometimes it's just swelling that prevents feeling and it can improve over time... *hugs* to you both.


    Does anyone want to take my final for me in 3 hours? I really, really don't want to take it... -__-

    I will take and pass your final for you if you will take and pass my skills test for me. ;)

    School begun 2 days ago, but I'm already tired. May mock exams..then real GCSE exams in June. Stress is a real mood killer.
    Good luck to anyone who's having exams/finals though.

    You'll be fine, you have to walk in there thinking at some level that you are the baddest thing set on wheels, otherwise it could be lost before it even started...good luck :)

    Thanks, I'll try. I keep trying to look at it like I'm just going to another practice, but then I think "oh, what if I mess up on this?" and start to freak out. It's not so bad during the day, but when I go to bed, I get really anxious. Oy.

    Too late... Done and I think I did okay. Would definitely fail your skills test though (I'm guessing its for skating?). I have weak ankles, a bum knee, and bad hips. >.>''

    Yeah. I'm hoping I got away with an A, but I'd settle for a B. I walked into that final with a very strong A so I hope it didn't bring it down too far!

    I'm sure you'll do just fine with your skills test. :)

    Last proper day in the SLO. Working on reflections is a nightmare. 2,500 words apiece on skills in practice and justice and ethics. 800 words into the latter, can't wait until it's finished. Even if it does mean another PLR to do.

    (Apologies for talking in acronyms.)

    Thanks hidden.

    Thanks Annûniel. She was sent in for surgery today apparently, so not really sure what's going on.

    It's scary you know. The number of people injured by vehicles, and then you go to the school to pick up/drop off your kids, and while there, you see parents not watching their kids which are running out in the road (4 year old kids mind) and cars nearly reversing over people and their kids, because none of them are watching, pouring rain and kids standing there getting soaked because drivers are too arrogant to stop and let them cross to get out the rain faster. What a world we live in... I saw almost 8 people (parents and children) almost be run over today. On the first day back at term 2 as well. Shocking. Will people NEVER gosh damn learn? I just want to scream at them all. Just scream so damn loud. I hate how people are just so damn stupid and take life for granted like that. Makes me so angry and upset at the same time. Why are people so gosh darn thick?

    H-have we entered a new ice age? It's May 05, 2011 and it's...48 degrees F down here when it should be 80-90 degrees F.

    What the hell is happening?! I thought the last freeze was way back in flarking MARCH!

    Do I need to move to Hawaii or, God forbids, a flarking desert to get some heat? No, knowing my luck, it'll be cold there because apparently we have entered a new ice age.

    It's actually turned out nice here, which is a shame. I was hoping for an evening downpour, to keep the turnout low in a hope to thwart the Green Party and the No campaign. What a crafty (if disappointed) election campaigner I am :p

    Well, yes, I STILL don't have my refund money from my school! And today I worked with someone from the school, did a little digging, and turn outs they have no reason not to release my funds. None. I have 720 hours, I have a 4.0, all of the money has been approved already, and I've met EVERY federal requirement. So why don't I have my money? Yeah, well... I have a meeting with the director of financial aid and the president of the school on Monday. I may be small, but I do NOT put up with **** like this, especially when it comes to money that I NEED. They owe me over $7,000. So if I don't get paid, somebody's going down for it.

    That sucks, Bay. My family's gone through kinda the same thing- it dragged on for months, might even have been a year. Same here, absolutely no reason not to pay my dad, but for some reason they just didn't. And since this is a family of 15... well, that wasn't always very easy.

    I hope they stop being stupid soon and pay you!

    You could come here, it's been pretty nice. Yesterday got up into the high 80s, though...a small taste of things to come.

    Go get 'em, Bay! I have a few friends who have mentioned having issues getting their financial aid, too, and it boggles my mind. Back when I was in school, I got mine a few weeks before the semester started...not sure what they decided to change between then and now, but whatever it was doesn't seem like a good idea.

    Just found out today that someone I love very much Is on their deathbed for six months or less,..and then of course they die.. due to stupid cancer, It's inoperable and even with treatment if it succeeds He will die within a year so he's not doing treatment.. Some more great news to add to my already horrible year.

    Apparently everyone my boyfriend has ever met wants to get in his pants. And he gets text messages from them. Constantly. Wanting to know if he's done with that girl he's with already, EMOTICON WINK EMOTICON WINK, so he can finally know how great it would be to get with her?

    I want to stab multiple people in the eyeballs. And then I want to be like "Hard to see yourself with my boyfriend now, isn't it?! HAAAHAHAH!"

    I'm sorry to hear that. :( What a difficult thing for him and all his loved ones to go through!

    Um...yeah, if I were in your position, I would put a stop to that business real quick.

    I am extremely sorry. I do however understand to some degree how painful it is to be told someone you love has a time limit due to a terminal illness.
    There is nothing I can say that'll make it easier, I know, but just know my thoughts are with you and I am extremely sorry. Massive hugs to you.

    Come to Panama! It's always warm here, you can go to the beach in December, you don't have to change your currency to come here, and many people are bilingual.

    Sorry to hear about that. :( I know what I say won't be that helpful, but I hope you, and his family are able to support each other through these tough times. I also hope that you can help make his last year easier and happier for him.

    I'd talk to your boyfriend about this, it might sort this business out.

    As for me, two of my housemates might be having friends round in three days, and considering last time they had friends round it involved me listening to their friend throwing up and stuff, and getting something like three hours sleep, I'm hoping it doesn't happen. I really won't be in the mood for it.
