very indecisive. Ive found a guitar I've always wanted at a guitar shop and I keep changing my mind if I should buy it or not. Its the Danelectro 59 with black finish and the rad bridge with the rosewood saddle. You know, the one Syd Barrett played, well its more well known to being Jimmy Page's guitar but screw Zeppelin, lol. She's a really cheap guitar, around 400 bucks but its got the sound Im really looking for. Oh yeah, Ive started a new band already with the drummer from the group that just disbanded. We're gonna be a 2 piece, we've had a few jams and its sounding great lol. But this guitar, I can't get it out of my mind lol, yeah thats right, I will admit it, I think more about guitars than I do about girls lol. I even cuddle with more guitars than girls too lol. Here she is

or as you non industry people call it - "postman"

Just wish I wasnt so tired. Oh well.

See you when I get back...!

Congrats! I hope it goes well.

I'm feeling pretty good. My mom is starting a non profit organization to help people like us with social anxiety and phobia get through school and get jobs. (Yeah, she's the lady that was asking for opinions earlier.) She's hiring me at minimum wage to help her get all the paperwork done and research whatever needs to be done. So, for the short term, I have a bit of money coming in. And I'm doing something that I'm good at and will enjoy. I'm hoping this will help improve my self esteem and get me to the point where I'm actually more comfortable getting a job that deals with the public.

That's awesome! I hope everything goes well. :)

Seems like you really like this guitar, so buy it if you want. Also good luck with the new band. :)

^ I'm sorry to hear that Mikey. Maybe you should bring it up with her though? Like Buzz said, just tell her you want to be more open with her. Maybe it's not so much that she doesn't care as it is she doesn't know how to approach certain subjects because she doesn't know anything about them. I think we've all been there, especially me. Someone says something or tells me about something that I have no idea about, and rather than asking a lot of questions because I think I'd look dumb, I just say "yeah" or "okay" and even "oh wow." Funny, because that makes me look even dumber and uncaring. :rolleyes:

I know this is a few hours late, but I agree with this. Maybe your mom just doesn't know how to go about things or she doesn't know how to be there for you/express her feelings very well.

I have this problem too. Sometimes I just over think things way too much and I don't want to ask too many questions that pester the person. I don't want to invade their personal space/feelings. I usually never know what to say or ask or what to do in general about that stuff, so I am sure that I come across as uncaring too, even though I do care a lot.

Well, I have to write a statement of purpose as part of the application first. That's actually what's got me a little nervous.

Ah, right. I was writing a personal statement/covering letter for a job application today - that kinda stuff is always tricky, but I find actually starting it is the hardest part. Once you get going it's usually okay.

I remember writing my statement of purpose for my university application a few years ago. A good way of approaching it is to always remember to write with passion :)

Yeah, I've been working on an outline so I know what I want to talk about in my essay. I'm actually applying as a "continuing studies" student because I've already gone through an undergrad program and gotten a BA, but I want to get a second Bachelor's. Since the school I'm looking at has pretty stiff competition in its regular undergrad admissions, I was advised to apply as a continuing studies student.

I think I remember having to write a personal statement for one or two of my applications when I was applying as a first-year, but they weren't quite as formal as this, and I don't remember if the school I ended up going to (also a top university in the area) required me to write a statement.

I don't think getting in will be TOO hard, considering I just graduated about a month ago and I had a solid 3.0 GPA all throughout my last 4 years of school (and before that in high school I was a straight A student). Still, I can't help but feel nervous. Maybe it's because the school I'm applying to is kinda known for being a little hard to get into.

Is there anyone like a tutor who can help you with the statement if need be?
Sounds like you know what you're doing though. Good luck with it! :)

^ That's wonderful, super! Good luck to the both of you! I think this is a great idea. :)

Feeling somewhat productive. Been watching Law & Order: SVU all day, but in between episodes, we've gotten 3 loads of laundry and one load of dishes done. Also, organized and put away most of my son's toys. :D
I still feel like I'm behind, but maybe I'll catch up soon...

Confused about what?

My date. After fifteen years of him flirting etc, I finally made my move on Friday and he was totally pleased. We met up tonight and talked and he asked me loads of stuff and told me loads of stuff. You know, like a normal date. Then he initiated that he didn't know what would happen with us. Yes all ok. Then he was saying that he didn't mind being single, quite liked it actually, but carried on asking me stuff. Then, it was obvious he was tired but didn't say, so I said I was and got up to leave. He did kiss me goodbye and wish me a good day tomorrow, but he didn't say anything about seeing me again and I feel like it was an end, that didn't even begin. I don't know what I said or did, or didn't say or didn't do or if he was just playing it cool. It doesn't make any sense to me why someone would seem so into me one minute and then like he couldn't wait to get rid of me. What did I do wrong?
