How are you feeling?

I hate that feeling of not knowing who's going to be moving in next door. ::(: I'm not surprised you don't want to see the good neighbours leave.

Hope you get someone decent.

Oh I'm sorry to hear that Mikey. Its always hard when friendly people are moving away. I hope your next neighbours will be friendly and amazing as well.

I hope you find good neighbours MikeyC :)
Thanks, guys. Definitely did not want to see them leave, but they're a busy couple doing all sorts of work-related and play-related stuff, traveling everywhere, and living life to the full. Living in such a rewarding city like Melbourne will ultimately fuel the fires in their bellies.

I just hope the new neighbours are just as good. I apparently have to let them know via Facebook if they're annoying or not. ::p:

You know you're gonna feel happy when you wake up to something that makes you feel happy. :)
Absolutely! I hope you are talking about you. ^_^

Awake. I pulled an all-nighter (could NOT go to sleep with this insane wind blowing outside -__-) and I'm still not tired.
Oh, wow. That's hectic. You will probably have a second wind flow through you until the fatigue sets in. Good luck!
 
I feel worthless.

I'm feeling a bit like that recently...my self-esteem has taken a real battering especially on this site. I'm starting to doubt myself and compare myself to others..I need to remind myself that:

it doesn't matter how successful you are in your career or with the opposite sex. Or how many wonderful children you produced or even the fact that you managed to get married.Or even that you are popular on this forum.

It's the integrity and courage that you have to hold hope and love in your heart even when the odds are against you!!

In one of the pictures threads yesterday...you didn't post one there recently?



Oh. I didn't know which picture you were referring to. My kitten or myself.
Yes, I did post there. I'm not that cute though. I feel far more courageous though for actually posting it. It's like one teeny tiny baby step for me.

I feel pretty good. I wanted to get back in shape (since ive let myself go fitness wise) but I couldnt find the courage to go for a run because I can only do it afterschool when theres lots of people. I braved it though and finally went out.

Good for you, mate! I definitely need to do the same thing but I just have so little willpower it's laughable. I bet you felt like a super hero when you did it. :)

drained and horrible. from the moment i wake up to the moment i go to sleep i am consumed with dread, anxiety, and unhappiness. my new job is killing me. not because of the work, the work itself is fine. it is the environment. no windows, fluorescent lighting, sitting in an open office environment with people walking around me, being watched by my supervisor whose desk is directly facing mine. all day. i do not have any privacy all day long except when i hide out in my car on my lunch break. i spend my entire day fake smiling, being on form to laugh at all the right places, and listening to commercial music. the lack of privacy is exhausting. i have no joy. no energy to feign joy.

then i hang out with my boyfriend after work but have nothing to contribute. in fact, i tend to take it out on him which is undeserved. i am afraid i will lose him. it's going to happen. he doesn't want to be around someone who is so saturated in misery. can you blame him?

i've only been at this job for 3 weeks and i feel like i am going to crack.

that's such a bad place to be in

does your boyfriend know why you're feeling/behaving the way you are

talking to him about it might make things easier between you

I have no one to talk to right now, and it's making me feel sad and think about things I really don't want to be thinking about... :/

thanks for listening. i've talked about it with my bf. although he says that he understands, what i really think he wants to say is, "man up". i think he says he understands because it is the right thing to say and he wants to avoid fighting... he is very courteous to the point of not revealing what he really thinks. but i don't think he really understands. i get the feeling he is majorly rolling his eyes at me on the inside. and disgusted.

the thing is i'm a temp-to-hire and i'm afraid to come off the wrong way because then they might let me go instead of eventually hiring me (i need a job desperately). i can't really ask for different seating because i am part of a team and the team is a room with a bunch of desks. the only ones who get offices are the top dogs.

in an open office environment there is a constant paranoia, a constant pressure to appear to be adamantly toiling away. this is the biggest pressure. you always feel like you are being watched and calculated by passersby. it feels like an invisible whip cracking all day, every day. what is so wrong with giving people privacy?

idk idk... i've been off of work for 4.5 hours and i am still stressing to the max about it.
