Kind of nervous. My sister is having some of her friends over and we're all going to hang out. They're in high school, but... I'll take what I can get! Haha no just kidding, but I don't mind hanging out with high schoolers. I look like I'm in high school anyway :p

Moving countries is a big deal. Two weeks is not a lot of time to start making friends, too. Plus you say you're there for just one semester? You'll be gone before you know it.

Before leaving my parents told me the same^^
Yes, two weeks aren't much time to make friends, hopefully I'll be able to meet someone when I start lessons.

that's a really bold decision you made to go abroad. I also usually use that "i'll never see them again and nobody back home will know what I do" approach to ease anxiety. The first step into a daring situation (like the group of peeps around your professor) will still be anxiety provoking, but i'm willing to bet momentum will build up a lot faster after you take a first step when there is only newness around ya

I used the "I'll never see them again" just today when I went to a museum and I felt stupid/anxious asking some informations, it helped!
Tomorrow I'll have to try talking with professors again, I hope everything will be fine >_<

My birthday wish is for all of you to feel better.
My message to you guys and anybody else who reads this is one of the lessons I've learnt in these 27 years:

Remember that life is all about the ups AND the downs. Without one, we could never have the other. If we were able to, it would be a pretty boring fairground ride.

Enjoy it for all it is.

Always thinking of us - so sweet! :)

Happy Birthday to one of the wisest 27 year olds I know! Hope it's a great day and another year of mostly "ups" for you! :)

submissive on my back. my hands don't need to be bound, i've surrendered anyway. there is no fight in me. just the robotic going-through-the-motions of my inherent position in slavery. i fall into some state of self-numbing apathy because the other option is depression.

Feeling now like I kind of wasted my weekend. I did do a little homework, and started a project I've been wanting to do for weeks (for fun, not school), but other than that I mostly just spent time on the internet as usual, watched tv, or I slept. I could've gotten a lot more done, but I got lazy. Lazy and unmotivated.

I need to really focus this week now. I have a research paper, history homework, and a quiz to complete all by Friday.

I feel like a bad person. If I see others in pain, I don't know how to help them. I don't know how to give advice. I leave them in their solitude and their pain because I am too self-absorbed to reach out. I am a bad person.

I feel paranoid, finally a professor's assistant replied my email about being in the course (sculpture), I wrote a polite email and he just answered "come at 10 to the classroom", I don't like this kind of replies, it makes me feel anxious that he already doesn't like me or he will be unfriendly :( plus I had to tell him that at the same time I have an erasmus welcome meeting so I can't go, his mail looked like an order and I'm afraid he will get angry :( I hate paranoia =_=

Maybe he just had a ton of work to do and had to answer to many student emails which would explain his straightforward answer. I'm sure that he didn't mean to come of as harsh, art teachers are always fun :D

There's no way that he'll be angry at you, that would be totally unreasonable :)

thanks for your words :)
I'm not able to think positive because I'm also scared that the professor won't like my portfolio, but if I think rationally I understand that he might be full of work and gives quick replies, I just wish I can stay calm during these situations :)
