I am getting beat up today. Last night I cut my finger on a beer bottle at work and kept bleeding for hours, I couldn't even put a band-aid on it at first since it kept bleeding through. Then I wake up this morning (after being a bit dizzy and lightheaded the night before) and rip one of my best around-the-house shirts. The to my delight I remove the band-aid I had on last night and it immediately starts bleeding again. :kickingmyself: I'm running out of band-aids I may need to go to the store and get more, I just really hope I don't have to go to the doctors. Maybe it's on a vein, or there's small shards of glass inside cutting it up? :idontknow: I hope it's not those things.

Ooo, I forgot that movie was coming out, when I first heard about it I wasn't sure if it'd be any good, it looks good though! I thought of that Romeo & Juliet movie almost as soon as the trailer started, not surprised it's the same people in charge (also Leo was in that too). I'll actually have someone to go see it with as long as it's still showing in January too

what part do you have a hard time with?
this is how i learned, maybe it will help? idk... think of the palm area as a quadrilateral (4 sided polygon). from there think of the fingers as tubes... even the knuckles, are a continuation of the same tube, just wider, particularly on the top of the hand. when drawing fingers or toes, it helps me to lightly sketch the fingers as spiral tubes like this...
...hope this helps.

So as I've mentioned before I've been emailing this girl who seems to be interested in me, although she's never specifically mentioned it. It's been fun and I think she's a cute and interesting person.
I got an email from her about an hour ago and she's telling me a little more about her life. She is so interesting, but I feel like a boring loser in comparison, which is chipping away at my insecurities and confidence levels. She can tell me all these stories of her studies and going overseas and I can reply with, "so I had this really good pizza last night." ::
I guess what I have to do now is either embellish stories I do have, make up stories, or just make sure she doesn't realise how much better she can do!

Stories are just stories, though. Fun to tell and hear, but having them- or not having them doesn't make you a better or worse person. Stuff like that is merely the clutter that orbits the person you are. And the person you are is a good one.
If you can make her smile, you need not have compensation from grand tales of Brave Outback Mikey.
And besides, if that pizza story didn't do it, NOTHING WILL. >:O

I know that they're just stories, but still, it makes my life seem pretty mundane compared to hers.
Thanks for the compliment.
I just need to get some confidence and I'll be okay. I have no grand tales of Brave Outback Mikey. I do live in Australia, but I like my air conditioning. :thumbup:

^Just tell her you've wrangled a kangaroo. And a crocodile. Naked. That'll win her over.
...Unless she's Australian herself, then she probably won't believe you... You never mentioned if she is so I assumed she isn't for some odd reason, but now that I think about it I probably should have assumed she is Australian... lol.

Thank you, I'm going to try to apply this next time. I generally make it to the wrist and thumb just fine, but the rest of the hand just kinda feels alien to portray.

She wasn't born in Australia but she lives here so that could win her over. Thanks for the tip, Opal. :bigsmile:

Made this veggie stirfry but modified a bit because the only veggies I had that the recipe called for were one red bell pepper, onions, and garlic. I had all the seasonings and sauces, but no canola oil, so used olive instead.
I added 1/2 cup carrots and 1/2 cup celery instead, followed the recipe without the other veggies, and drained the excess teriyaki sauce at the end (should have just added less but forgot - duhhh). Served it over brown rice from another meal.
It was delicious and everyone liked it! ^___^ I didn't even expect it to taste as good as it did; thought it would be mediocre, but boy was it yummy. I love sesame oil.

I am feeling a bit depressed because I got rejected again - by a girl. It seems to happen over and over and I can't help feeling that I 'don't make the grade'
I don't seem to have any trouble meeting girls - but I can never get past that "you are nice, kind of sort of interested - but not for me" stage. It just makes me feel crap - over and over and over and over and over again. It hurts me and brings me down. I am pretty good guy when people get to know me - I have a good soul if I do say so myself. Either I am really boring and ugly or I just don't meet expectations of what girls want (sorry to generalize - I just dont know how to put it any other way) like I get rejected and then I see the girl go out with some other guy - so it feels like that HE has something that I don't. It is painful.

I see this as a big accomplishment. You're getting over any possible fear of rejection! I think you just haven't met a person that values the beautiful traits in you enough to deserve to be with you. They will come along as long as you keep putting yourself out there

I don't fear rejection as much as I used to - it's just when I do get rejected it just makes this huge hole inside of me. Its so very hard to describe exactly how it feels. I HATE getting my hopes up for anything. I truly HATE it - because I know that anytime anything has the slightest potential to make me feel good to actually get what I want - I always lose and it just piles on top of me making me feel worthless unlikeable and that I am simply not good enough.
It's painful - so terribly painful and it just makes me feel really really bad...
