:C I'm sorry you're feeling that way. Since I fail at giving advice, will a hug do?

THAT IS FOUR HUGS.


You LIAR!

(*extreme rage*)

... XD

*hugs for everyone on the thread*
*can't really muster up real replies*

/hugsbackbecauseohgodohgodijust

I'm on! I know this sounds bad, but will you get on A/N????

Ahhh, the healing powers of music. ^_^ 'Tis a language in itself.

O_O Don't let them make you feel embarrassed! I used to be like that...
Me: I like Korean Pop Music. :D I'm listening to 2NE1 right now.
My siblings: XD What the heck, Ashley?
My adult BFF: IT'S THE BOUNCY GIRLS! XDD
Random people I know: O_o ...Okaaayyyy.
Me: x_x B-but I like it... ;w;
My dad: *is sitting on the couch with the stereo blasting 2NE1, even though he can never remember all the Korean lyrics* :D NEGA CHE CHALA-GA! jkfjbfsjbfkskbdfbsdfjk, NEGA CHE CHALA-GA!
Me: :'D *sings along*

Now...
Me: :D *openly bursts out singing in Korean* Jigum naega hanun yaegi, ne appuage halji molla...
My sibling: o_0 You sound like you're babbling nonsense.
Me: *switches songs* I DON'T CA-A-A-A-A-ARE! ^_^ *launches into more Korean*

x__X They're teaching me how to analyze topographic maps of pretend islands and analyze seismographic data to plot the epicenter of a pretend earthquake. They're feeding me unproven theories, treat them as absolute fact, then turn around and talk about all the crap scientists used to believe in that got proven wrong decades ago. They're teaching me how to calculate the three multiples of a "real number" or whatever, and expect me to grasp the concepts immediately while, meanwhile, are also doing craploads of review stuff. I GET IT. -1 + 1 = 0. Can we move on to something different, but actually give me time to LEARN IT? O_e Then, they hit me with the task of memorizing the definitions, spelling, AND pronunciation of over 40 Spanish words and phrases per week, while ALSO expecting me to infer the answers to what certain words mean by feeding me stupid stories written in half-English-half-Spanish. AND IT'S NOT REAL SPANISH ANYWAY. x__x The voice actors sound like idiots, the stories are stupid and boring and ridiculously long, and it's all just so redundant. MEANWHILE, in the two subjects I used to love, Reading and Writing...oh, gosh. Have you ever read the short story The Bet? Or maybe An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge? Or maybe Everything Rises Must Converge? They all have a few things in common: (1) They make NO sense, (2) They're all depressing beyond comprehension, (3) Someone dies tragically in all of them, (4) They have no point, (5) The writers are all insane and pretty much unknown, and (6) My teachers expect me to be happy about reading these crap stories. Soon, we're going to start studying "descriptive poems." I looked ahead at them. 3 out of 5 of them AREN'T EVEN A FULL STANZA. x_x They make no sense. It's like a board 5th grader just picked out some descriptive words and jotted them down helter-skelter. And in Writing? jndjbfjsbjbskjbkjbgkg. >_< The word limits are too low, the content is boring and unimaginative, and no one seems to want to respond to my work when I post it on the online bored because I don't post it in a "timely manner." O_O The HECK does that mean?! IT'S NOT EVEN ELEVEN O'CLOCK. You expect me to pull a whole concept for a short story out of my brain the second I get the writing prompt?! *froths at the mouth*

. . . .
OTL

Holy mother of sanity...I just snapped, didn't I? x__x I'm sorry, Sandy...I...I didn't mean to go postal like that. I'm sorry. I'm just really stressed on top of school--my life's been warped horribly thanks to the events of June (...your birthday is in June? O__o XD okaaayyy...), and school ISN'T helping my stress level. ;w; Did I mention they keep changing teachers on me? Most of my teachers have either been promoted, quit their job, went on maternity leave, or got transferred to another branch of the school. I don't ever NEED to talk to my teachers, but...what the heck? x_x I thought STABILITY was important in an online school environment. That's what their ad says.

Well...I feel a little better now that I've got that out of my system. <:^J Thanks for putting up with me, Cass. OTL

I know what you mean, Tredom. <:^J *hugs you back*

:'D Yes, a hug will do, and so will more than one, especially when some are Doctor Who gifs! *hugs back*

.............And then the day that I've already proclaimed "The Strangest Day of 2012" for me just gets even STRANGER.

*is paranoid now* *arms myself with various sharp kitchen utensils*

Okay, I need to just go crash in my room for a while. Maybe drink some Earl Grey. Listen to I Am the Best and I Don't Care and Try to Follow Me and Fantastic Baby and other motivational songs that just so happen to be mostly in Korean.

To Ash:

On this day, last year, we lost a little ten year old boy named Bryson. :'( He was in a fourwheeler crash, and didn't make it through. People were crying today, there was a small memorial after school, and....I don't know. I'm kind of mad at God, because what did Bryson do to have to die? He was only ten...his whole life was waiting for him, and he never gets to live it now.

But yeah...today was depressing. :/

RIP Bryson (insert last name here)

~Gone, but NOT forgotten~

Bryson wasn't taken by God, Caleigh. The poor boy was at the wrong place at the wrong time. :( But he'll get a chance to live again. For now, he's just asleep.

Ah that's horrible. A sorry to his family.

aww :( But, it's not Gods fault, like Ash said. He's in a better place now :)
Something like that happened to one of my brothers friends named Maison, just a couple weeks ago. For homecoming at our school, were having a day where we dress up in motorcross gear in honor of him.

Thanks!! I don't have to see the scary psychologist anymore!! YAYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! OMG SO HAPPY!

IM venting my emotions
OMG I AM SO HAPPY TO BE BACK
:DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD

i know my music and my characters than i do my friends
for some reason
my friends don't make me feel like i have friends up close and personal friends
but music and my made up characters do
i think every writer/person whos lived long enough has felt that
but im a little worried my real friends dont live up to my impossible expectations
i can't get rid of them though

on the brightside i am listening to the killers so that solves everything

I kinda know how you feel.

My characters are perpetually loyal to their friends, even though they sometimes don't show it. That's what I'd like.
Oh, and have any of you guys got advice for my friend? She doesn't have much friends.

My back hurts. Like hell. So does the left side of my neck. I have to sit down on a chair that supports my head or lie down to get any relief. And my leg muscles hurt. And my sprained ankle still hasn't healed properly. OUCH. I feel awful...
Plus, I'm constantly tired. Even during the holidays. Every spare second I get
I try and rest a bit. But I'm still constantly exhausted. And constantly teary and depressed. Yet I am still be hyper, which leaves me even more tired. I'm always hungry, but when I eat I feel full, and as soon as I stop eating I feel hungry. And I'm putting on a lot of weight. It's probably because of my eating to satisfy my hungriness, but it's strange because last year I hardly ate anything (except cheese, meat, fruit, veg, and pasta in tiny amounts) and put on masses of weight.
WHAT IS HAPPENING TO ME?!?!?!?!?!?!

Did that even make sense?

You're welcome, and good for you!

So I'm stressed, because I am worried about finishing a chapter. I can't figure out what else to write!

"I wouldn't care if you were ugly....or stupid...I just love you"

They're hormones. Get over him/her.

Have a heart, MaryElizabeth! D8


Do you have classes with them?

This is a totally cliche thing to say, but "If you don't have anything nice to say don't say it at all." This thread is for cheering people up, not bringing them down and saying their feelings are fake and insignificant.

Thank you. *takes a bow and walks away*

As much as I wanted to say what ME just said, I agree with you more. You gotta keep it in, I'm trying to. Can't just be so condescending to people.

I know. Sometimes people say stuff and I want to slap them and tell them that too, but you have to understand--they most likely have not realized what's going on in their bodies and you're not going to get anywhere by pissing them off, or they're not as emotionally strong, or they don't have a lot of experience with that particular emotion--I know people of all three of those categories.
Instead of snapping at them, though, it would be nicer for them and much more efficient to gently help them through whatever happens. :/
(*pats shoulder*)
Good work, bro. :>

What happened? o_o D8

Probably gonna post a big rant later... >_>

...... Yeah, I kind of noticed that. I tried getting over him already, 'kay? It's just that every time I see him it's like I'm falling in love all over again.

And what I meant by the whole "i wouldn't care..." stuff is that I love him for his personality, not just his looks. But... I would kind of care if he was dumb... I take that part back.

He's the head of my committee in Student Council and we're both in orchestra (I'm in freshman and he's in varsity because he's older.)

Thanks Moogle :D:D

Wow... that was very un-Camille like... but in a good way :)

Yeah, I do know it's hormones and stuff, but I've just never experienced a feeling this... strong.

Puberty.
Get used to it.
It sucks.

Okay, that's kinda true, I'm also sore and tired as hell.

But still it's good to just let people complain and get it out.

I really hate to dismiss what you're feeling as hormones... mostly because you remind me of me. I barely ever have crushes on boys, I've only had two over my entire 14 years, and I can never understand how girls can have crushes on more than one person at once, or have crushes on them just because of their looks--I just can't wrap my mind around it. When I say I like/love them, I really mean it... it doesn't matter if they're ugly, foolish, whatever. I have no preferences for hair or eye colour... So in a way you kind of remind me of me and that makes me feel funny (in a bittersweet way) so... XD XD :'D :'C
Well... I wish you good luck. I really hope you don't have to try and force yourself to let go of such a strong feeling because when I had to do that, it was sooooo difficult. Trying to forget someone like that... sucked.
So, again... I wish you good luck. :)

(*suddenly wants to complain about puberty*)

A little while ago I got the WORST growing pains in my knees... I couldn't move, I just curled up in my bed and tried not to scream... I couldn't get to sleep, and the more I walked on them, I felt like those old guys on the commercials for arthritis drugs, who would be walking and then each of their bones would collapse...
It was suckage of epic proportion.

Yeah, something like that is happening to me too. At random times of the day, my back will start hurting and feeling like I should pop it... then again, it might have to do with the fact that I have like a bajillion textbooks, binders, and notebooks in my backpack....

Yeah.... I know exactly how you mean. I've only had 2 crushes too. I mean, I've looked at guys and thought "Oh, he's kind of cute" but not it wasn't serious or anything. The guy that I have a crush on now... just... oh my gosh. He's so nice and amazing and he's such a gentleman... he always opens doors for girls and when there wasn't enough chairs, he gave up his seat to a girl who didn't have one...

Keep him! Don't try to get over him. If you have something decent soon (like Homecomming or a Dance), ask him if he has anyone to go with, and if he doesn't, ask him yourself.

Hope you can.

Thanks :D And yeah, our homecoming is this Saturday.
