I want to be in control of my life. I want to make things happen. I want to do what I want. But at the same time I don't want to want anything. I always end up disappointed.

I need some damn coffee to perk me up and make me alert!

I'm out of Pringles :sad:

World hunger, poverty, animal cruelty, war, oppression, out of pringles...

This world makes me SICK.

Heh. I know, #firstworldproblems for sure.



I wish I lived in Phoenix, Arizona :sad: I really REALLY want to attend this SA group from the Social Anxiety Institute. I'm sure some of you have heard of it before:

Local Therapy Groups | Social Anxiety Institute

If I had the money, I would move out there to participate in this program. I don't, though. Maybe someday. If only they had more of these sorts of things. I hate you, social anxiety...

If only you had told me about this eleven years ago...

The more you do it, the better you'll become. 🙂

Not terribly comforting, but thank you for the effort.

I'm officially done with news writing! -kicks the giant globe off shoulders-

I can no longer fit my large hands in their tube of deliciousness. It's disappointing, really.

I am addicted to the internet. I really need to find a way to kick this habit without going cold turkey.

At the risk of stating the obvious, you need to find something else to occupy your time that the Internet is using. There's nothing wrong with occasionally browsing online, but spending too many waking hours in front of the computer isn't good. Everything is too convenient - we lose patience when things take too long, online and off. Go for a bike ride (probably too cold in your location for that right now :😛:), read a book, watch a good movie, cook something new, have an early night in bed (this works wonders for me!). There are definitely things you can do to limit your Internet consumption, but it does take some effort to make it happen.

I do recall you got away from the Internet in the past, so there's no reason why you couldn't do it again. 🙂

Wanting things is what drives you. Truly think of what you want, whatever that might be, and go for it. 🙂

You mean you don't throw it on the ground and violently gnaw on the tube until you rip the side open like an animal?

..I thought this was Pringle's etiquette. :C

Being criticized by a parent can sting 100 times worse then by anyone else.:thinking:
The sting can last for days. :sad: Even when it is about something that is beyond your control.

I know exactly what you mean.

Ugh - disappointment. That is the one feeling I do not handle very well at all.

I don't do that, but I should now. 😉

I'm sorry. :🙁:

The sky was trying to clear today. For a while the heavy rain returned and the dark forested hills of the Orara escarpment where shrouded in a curtain of drizzly rain. I am tired of the melancholy greyness, the shoes that won't dry, the deep puddles formed where I run, the ocean spray overtopping the marina breakwall. The first bursts of full sun seemed so bright after days of darkness, the blue of the sky much brighter cleaned by rain.

You should live in Hobart Kiwong it hardly ever rains here.

Hasn't rained much in Shellharbour. I guess the south coast has been spared most of the torrents.

Days? How about years? Or decades?

I can still hear their disapproving voices, their hurtful words, and yeah, it still stings, even now.

A friend of mine has been studying in a foreign country for half a year, and returned last week. There is a welcome back party today. It starts iiiin.... twenty minutes. I guess in about twenty minutes I will slowly get ready, and in an hour or so show up there.

I don't feel much like socializing, but I already said I'd show up. I know her since many years, but it's more that we share friends, than as if we are friends ourselves. We like each other, we meet on video evenings, parties, festivals and so on, but never really do anything together. So this is a bit odd. What's quite strange is, that a few months ago she signed up on a dating website (okcupid), where you answer questions to find a fitting match.

She started messaging me, when she was done with that, since we had such a superhigh match for some reason. Still, she is way out of my league, which makes it even more... odd...

But friends of mine will be at the party, so I guess I will stay there for an hour or two, and then leave.

'This is fun, but also so bad.'

^literally my random thought/feeling

I just made some biscuits. They didn't turn out all that bad.

I'm really nervous about taking care of my grandma this weekend.

Can it be May yet? My body aches for Iron Man 3. :V
