Well... looks like I'm going on holiday in a fortnight.
Back to the country I fell in love with two years ago. My spiritual home.
It's not the most perfect time to go back as not everybody I made friends with will be there at that point, but I wonder if I kept holding out for the 'perfect time' would I ever go back at all? No time is perfect.
Your encouragement helped me make this decision. You know how much my anxiety was getting in the way. I've decided to remember whats important, and just go and spend some quality time with my dear friend and her family. Even my boss was telling me I should go, because she thinks I could do with a break before things get a lot busier.
I hope other people aren't going to be annoyed that I didn't wait until I'd be able to see them out there, but as it happens I probably can't go later in the year anyway because of work. It's not going to be an expensive trip all things considered because everything is so cheap out there and I'm staying with a friend. So I can just tell them I'll go again next year :😛: I think a couple of others may even resent me for going back when they can't, but if they do, it's not like I've done anything wrong. Stupid anxiety made me delay my decision for so long haha.
I'm so glad I could've helped you out with your decision! You so deserve to do this, and I don't think you'll get too much resentment. If you do, ignore it and enjoy your amazing holiday!
That's great that your boss has also said you should go. With that sort of persuasion, you can't really argue the point. 😀
I hope you have such a wonderful time! I look forward to hearing all the stories.

That's great twiggle, I hope you have a nice time. 🙂
Awful, a lot things have been going on with me lately and I'm not getting any support from anyone. Is it my fault that I want to do something I strongly like and not what others want me to do because they think its practical for me?
hey sri, what course do u want? if u dont mind me asking..
Do you need to lift heavy things like a weight lifting degree?
Haha no I just want to study child psychology but according to people around me I'll never have the people skills for my chosen profession and also I'm too lazy for it.

Personally, I think someone who has lived with depression and anxiety would have more insight into what other people are actually going through and feeling. Much more than someone who has only an academic understanding.
wow srij, that sounds like an excellent course. im surprised some people would say that! im sure ud do great.
also at least in india obesity is not so much a problem as the US so u wont have too much trouble lifting heavy children

Haha I hope so too but can't be too sure since I had the problem myself. 😛

I agree.
Dont get disheartened Srijita - Your kindness knows no bounds, people need people like you. I just hope you get recognized for everything that you are worth.

That's it? Whatever, you're sweet and understanding children are going to attract you like flies to candy. They like sincere people. I sometimes can talk to kids better than adults and they can be fun to be around. You're going to do it, yup, especially if you are passionate about it in your heart. I'm not a social person either (obviously), but I chose something I am passionate about. You care about people and it shows, you will be just fine.
As others have asked, what was the reasoning for this?
I've basically cut a friend or two out of my life, as well. It has been difficult but I knew it was for the best.
It was a girl who was initially a friend, but then we started loving each other years ago. It was a very passionate and out of control love, and my first love, but things went bad, she betrayed me. We tried being friends for years after that, but there was always drama involved. Yesterday, she wanted to be with me again, I refused. I lost the passion and my adventurous side. I just want time to pass so this thing can get out of my head.

I'm sorry, I agree if you don't feel that way about her anymore you don't have to be with her. I hope you feel better with time.
I'm--conflicted. Very tired, and worried about what my son may tell his dad about our recent fights over bedtime (I can picture my ex suing me or pressing charges claiming child abuse or something).
However, I ordered a textbook online, and it just arrived, which means I can return the one I bought on campus. This is going to save me 57 bucks! The one I bought off amazon was only $22. 😀 Now I'll have money to go grocery shopping, which I really need to do.
I'm hoping to have a productive day, but I only have about 4 hours before I need to be at work.
I forced myself to go out last night with friends from school and it went really badly(again). I just withdraw into myself and cannot speak its horrible I only managed to stay out for just under 2 and a half hours. 2 people even said to me what's wrong because I was so quiet. Failing at school is one thing but failing at having a good time is even worse lol. Now I just get to spend the afternoon panicking about tonight it will probably go even worse than yesterday.
Nothing like laughed at in the face by my own mother, when I'm being serious. 😠Thanks mum. Thanks a f***in' bunch, it's no wonder we never f***in' talk much. And she had the nerve tae ask me recently, "Why we hardly talk to each other?" She can take anything serious, that's why! Or, at least, anything that I say, seriously. But it's totally different story for my older sisters, innit? My mother and I just "tolerate" each other - used to say that jokingly, but now I think it's become the truth of our relationship.
Ah, the joys of being raised by a man-hating, single-parent mother.
yeah specially because I have not talked that much to her online, so I dont know her that much, and she was with her friend too, so that made it a double challenge 😀 haha
