"I feel good..." / happy right now. I finished making a piece, which I'm now satisfied with, and I uploaded it to DeviantART. I'm happy that I'm starting to develop a somewhat large fan base there and made many online friends. I almost always feel more confident and get higher self worth when on the site. Hurray for DeviantART!

Cool, what's your Deviantart?

^ I often have to wonder if someone is playing a great big joke on us with results like that.

Tony Abbott is a great big joke.

I never learned spanish but as a kid I used to watch shows dubbed in spanish with portuguese subtitles. Also, portuguese is fairly similar to spanish.
Overall the text looks good to me. There are some things that don't sound very good to me but that might be because of the differences between portuguese and spanish.

Todavía: in portuguese, todavia means however. If that's the case in spanish as well, I don't know if it fits that sentence well.
escribía: seems like the imperfect past (?) and it sounds like it should be perfect past (?). Again, it could be a difference between portuguese verb conjugation and spanish.
contiene: sounds like singular, and you're talking about books (plural).
está: seems like the usual difficulty english people have, distinguishing the verb estar from ser, since they both translate to "to be". I think it should be "es" here.
una película lo sobre también: something doesn't sound good here, not sure what.
importante: I think it should be importantes, since you're talking about "logros", which is plural.

That's all from me. You should probably double-check what I said with someone else.

Hey, thanks for responding. There are a couple students in my class who speak Portuguese and they confuse the two sometimes as well.

Todavía: I can't explain the reason, but apparently when used in a certain context in Spanish, todavía means "still" or something to that effect :idontknow:

Escribía: I think you're right. I think I thought it was imperfect because it's something that continues to this day... but really I'm stating that in the past he wrote many books, which is a specific thing (it has a clear beginning and ending in time). I think. Imp. vs. Pret still trips me up a lot.

Contiene: gah, you're right; it's supposed to be "contienen" h: it's always the little mistakes *sigh*

está: Yeah, probably... I always mess those up. I know the differences, but they can be confusing sometimes.

una película lo sobre también: I didn't think so either, but that's what Google translate told me, and while I know translators can be awful, I checked it by reverse translating it and it seemed fine (that usually seems to do the trick). Oh well, I wouldn't have known how to phrase it otherwise :/

importante: true, but I thought since I was speaking of ONE of his multiple accomplishments it would be singular? Maybe not.

Bah... I presented today and I hope I didn't lose too many points for those.

Thanks for your help!

^lol, I would have thought "is a ar##h*/e" would have been at the top of the list. :thumbdown: I don't know what pumps that man's blood through his veins, but it certainly is not a heart.:sad:




On a brighter note, I have survived 4 days of stress from several fronts at once and I am still breathing.
Can't help but wonder if the outcome would have been significantly different if I was not on Antidepressants. :thinking:

Yeah, I was told by my doctor that my cerebral palsy was likely to worsen as I get older when I was 12 years old. Not exactly something ye want tae hear at the beginning of yer teens.

It's just started to become noticeable now I'm in my 20s - with my physically mobility become less, legs getting weaker. And the knee joint and lower-back pain.

^So very sad to read this, Graeme.:sad:

Tony Abbott is a great big joke.

Also a lizard, if the Internet is to be believed.

I feel like screaming at the top if my lungs so loud that everyone can hear just how much it hurts. I want to cry and dissolve into a puddle and just stay that way. Maybe I should just disappear? Would that make everyone one happy? Im done trying for everyone's sake! Living my life for everyone else, being strong for the people that are meant to be strong for me. All this work for everyone else, being strong, being robbed of who I wanted to be and now what do I have?! Nothing I am running out of me to give, but, maybe if I give out what I have left everything will stop. I want have to pretend for everyone anymore, I will simply fade into nonexistence, that sounds like a fantastic plan! I'm done, I'm tired, I hope people are finally going to be happy...

^ My god, singing-love, I could have written every single word you wrote in your post.
What can we do when everyone around you has sucked the life out of you?:idontknow: I sometimes wish I could be instantly killed in a car accident. At least that is an honourable way to end this.

I hope things improve for you though, singing-love.

Thankfully it is looking more like we will only have to endure it for one term. :applause:


I love the Geckos that live in my house. Since I have stopped moving them outside I no longer have to buy cockroach traps, they eat them for dinner. :bigsmile:

BlueDays, this is two wildly different posts in the same day. I sense that something is very wrong.

^How very observant you are Mikey.
My moods go up and down throughout the day quite wildly when I am just trying to keep my head above water.
I hate being unstable like this. I think if I can just try and suppress some of the difficult feelings, I will be ok.
But then they creep back when I am not concentrating on supressing them! h:

So tonight was the final night of orientation week at the university and it's ended on a sour note.

I did chat to a person I met and we've now exchanged numbers. She's nice enough but she's had way more world experience than me and she's six years younger. I ponder as to why she's talking to me because I'm boring.

And that's the crux of my problem. Tonight was a live band thing where everyone could dance and drink. Groups have already been established now and yet there I was, aimlessly walking around, hoping for someone, anyone, to talk to me. I could then feel the usual loneliness symptoms of a heavy chest and a dropping mood, and knew there was no going back. I know study hasn't started but I just feel like I'm going to be alone, as usual. I hope someone in my class wants to talk to me because I'm sick of being alone. Socia.lising is very important to me, even if I do get anxious a little bit, and tonight highlighted that problem.

Sometimes I feel I deserve not to talk to anyone. I feel repulsive. It has even happened in the chatbox here, which is why I'll seldom go there. I wish I didn't have these extreme feelings. All I want is to make a few friends. I hope it's not going to be that difficult.

^ Mikey you may be surprised how quickly you can start a conversation with your fellow classmates when you have a major thing like studying the same subjects in common. I am confident you will make some new friends when you get used to the people in your classes, as you are such a warm and friendly person Mikey!:thumbup:

I really like my Geckos too, their chirping calls as they clean up the cockies.

Is something stressing you? I recall you are now at TAFE, right? I'm presuming that's giving you some anxiety?

Suppressing bad feelings doesn't work, because at some point they will come out. There are healthier ways to deal with them, but it does take some work. I'm sorry you feel this way, though.

I love my brother.

Not fair! We don't have geckos down here, do they walk on the walls like in My Family and Other Animals?

Mine move like shadows across the walls, they are Asian house geckoes an introduced species, but they do a good job.

I've been to the doctor today to consult about my hand/wrist/arm. She told me there's very little they can do short of surgery, and that surgery should be a last resort. I'm relieved that my arteries and blood flow are not in danger, but it's kind of a bummer to leave with little more than stretch advice.

 

[PerseverareJasmine]

Its 4:49 a.m. where I live and I still haven't been to sleep. I've been pulling a lot of all nighters lately. When I do try to go to sleep I have trouble, there's always something on my mind, and certain daydreams that probably will never come true, but are still nice to think about.
