Had a nice day chillaxing.
Though I did do a bit of exercise and walking too, the boiling bath afterward was a good enough reward~
..I should probably have tried to finish some college work though. >_>

It was 8am when I came home so I just woke up (it's 8:30pm now).
I just watched Inception with my Dad.
After the movie was finished he just said "That was exhausting" I giggled and asked what he thought about it. "Too much thinking. I'm done for today"
Well, he only slept 4 hours last night. I forgive him.
I feel pretty good even though I failed one or two courses last semester. If things go well then I should be seeing my younger siblings: Shy-Anne, Ashley, and Chad, and taking them all out to Chuck E Cheese's as a late Christmas present and then I should be seeing my long lost sisters, Morgan and Jessica, whom I've never met before. =)
And I found out a close friend of mine, Stacey, is coming down in Feburary. It seems like I get to spend plenty of time with all my little sisters (and uh… the one boy) so it should be nice. ^^
I'm tired right now.
Spent most of my day at a sort of family get-together on my mother's side. I played volleyball with various groups of family members for a good chunk of time, I drank lots of soda (and a sip of charddonay), ate some things, then I played hide in seek in complete darkness and light (don't judge me, I'm still a kid). It was a twist of hide and seek. We played in an area where there is a light that turns on by sensing motion and turns off if no motion is sensed fo about ten seconds. It was fun.
I amused myself a few minutes ago by writing a response to an anime hater on youtube.
I was watching an amv, when i noticed the comment "i fuckin hate anime!!!!"
my response:
I truly thank you for taking some time out of your busy schedule to give us your highly important broadcast.
Truly you are an example to us all and a role model for everyone!I hope that one day my son will grow up to be just like you,
posting highly valuable comments that are cleverly disguised as ignorant hate.
It's absolute genius!….except not really. we don't care that you hate anime.
But i worry for your mental stability if you torture yourself by watching what you hate.
DISCLAIMER: I don't actually have a son. I only said it to help the comment lol
My day wasn't very good. I'm not usually very open about sharing problems, but here it goes.
! See I Twitter, and I have like 200 followers; my friend joined recently. I found out he's really religious. Not one of the religious nutjobs who hates 'gays' and won't watch Harry Potter cus it's devil-like, but he has a complex about it; he believes strongly and imagines all Athiests as moustache twirling villains who DON'T understand and thus make fun of them.
! Anyhow, I tweet all kind of random crap, and I tweeted this joke that went down pretty well; I saw a girl completely rage in swear words because Justin Bieber wouldn't reply to her, so I wrote 'Beliebers can get so damn psychotic at times cus they devote their lives to someone who won't talk back; like Christians.' - witty, not serious, quick punchline. But then one problem arose.
! Now, I'm not Athiest, I don't even know what I am, I'm leaning towards Agnostic, but I wasn't serious and really only used Christians as an mock example, anything could be slotted in there. Every other person took it as the simple joke it was.
! But he sees it and; pent up with the complex rages on me and completely overreacts and swears at me. And then I jokingly mention that he 'started to sound like on of those crazy Christian extremists who hates gays and thinks Harry Potter is the devil' and we got into a whole argument that involved me quoting Laura Mallory:
! "The reason why Harry Potter is a terrorist threat, for the spells in the books are speical codes for terrorist groups in the middle east. The characters represent well known terrorist who have attack our borders. This is why we should ban these books from our schools. So, that no child would be influence by these materials of mass killings on a free country." - This is ridiculous, the spells are Latin.
! Anyway he thinks I'm stereotyping all Christians (cus of the complex) even though I made very clear I was only talking extremists. But he then said the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard, in his argument 'There's no such thing as extremism in religion' O_O
! And it really annoys me cus one of the most irritating things is when someone believes you hold the opposite views you actually hold. I believe anyone can be what they want; sexuality; gender(operation if they want) ; and believe in any religion they want to. I would have just as readily made a joke about athiests. And earlier, he had made a joke about rape. Usually we take each others jokes as not serious but because of the inferiority complex he has about his religion; he excepts and takes it seriously.
! Anyway Now we're not speaking. He does this like every two weeks or so. It's really got me down; I want him as a friend, but if he can't see that he did more wrong (via the flaming, swearing and massive reaction, me) then I dunno if it's worth it.
/Problems. Anyway, it's really got me down.
Forgive me, Flux. I had to quote the quote you quoted in quotation marks. :(
Had quite a few relatives over for today, didn't exactly do anything in particular, just socialized, was nice to visit with them. Plus we had a big lunch, and any excuse to have three whole chickens on a table at one time is alright with me!
Holiday season and lack of new One Piece chapters has kept me away from the boards for a bit, but things look to finally be calming down a bit around here, which I'm glad for. I mean, not to say I don't like the holidays (of course!) or visiting with family, but vacation time is vacation time for me, and it's nice to have some of that just to myself to relax.
fuck, someone needs to talk some sense into that guy.
"There's no such thing as extremism in religion"…?
has he ever even watched the fucking news and seen the result of a religious terror attack???
You know, the whackjob ragmen who'd blow you up for the sake of their religion?
Shit, what about the catholics who stomped around England murdering all the Protestants in the name of Jesus? =/
If he says something like that, then i cannot take him seriously at all.
sounds like a hypocrite too. can dish out jokes but can't take them.
Though i have no idea how bad this "complex" is, so i apologise if i've been too hard on him.
lol
why would you want him as a friend
I never subject people just because of their spiritual beliefs, but that guy seems like he has the level of intense ignorance that would pass onto other aspects of life, generally developing him as a very dense individual
I think we've all got mates we are slightly ashamed of. Usually maintained from the long bond you've made before they turned into idiots.
At least that's my excuse.

This is true, except in my case the girl and I were both idiots and then I grew up a little bit and she stayed the same. At least, that is what I like to think.
[/random interjection]
Okay day, started to go bad though.
My ear problems are starting to resurface. =(
This isn't my day.
Stupid class, I hate them (not all, but still). They're so dumb. They keep arguing with the teachers and don't realize it's pointless. Sometimes, they're funny (for example in English. We had to make conversations and had to present it. It was about jobs or I don't know. Two boys made and interview. A bad one.
A: So, how old are you?
B: Uhm… uhm...
others(not in English): Fifteen you idiot!
B(not in English): I'm sixteen...uhm... (now in English) Sixty! Fifty! Fifteen... I don't know...
Great, and I'm in the same class. But there are a few kids (mainly boys) who actually have the required capabilities to go to school. One of them noticed somehow when I was looking at the picture of Louis XIV in the history book and ever since, he (Louis) somehow became my husband.
Second: somebody's really working against me somewhere. That's the only explanation to the fact that I can't order a dagger. Tried four or five shops (actually 10-20, but some of them just don't ship to where I am and some have incredible shipping costs.) Guess what, all of them have some kind of problem when I want to buy... 404 internal server error, something went wrong, don't accept state/province (we don't really have those. We have counties.)
I sent an e-mail to all four.
No answers yet.
But finally, my order arrived (I'm still waiting for one). Morrowind Game of the year edition.
I had a pretty shitty day today.
A 3 goal lead blown in the last period to 5 unanswered goals?!
really??
came to school today for my dental appointment, only to find out that my student dentist can't see me after all cause her other patient had serious issues. I'm not too annoyed though, as i haven't been flossing much.
There are dentists at schools in Singapore? What a fascinating land.

lol. actually, my dentist is a friend of mine who's in her third year of dentistry. they need patients for their practical sessions and tests so she roped me in. primary and secondary schools do have dentists though.
I've been having a really shitty week.
Nothing too bad happened, but my mood has shifted to the point where even perceived slights have brought me into something not unlike despair.
The worst part is that I don't know what to do about it except to ride out these mood swings by myself.
I just woke up went online and found out that school's cancelled because of the weather. That's the awesome side of winter.
@Cuddles
Sounds like you need to go party on the weekend. Or, you know, enjoy the little things.
Some twat in my class came in late (for the only lesson..) and announced that he had the flu. Thanks for coming in, coughing everywhere and spreading your plague, you bastard. :///
^ oh wow.
i almost want to sig that, but i like my current two quotes too much.
News: Snow flurries today but no accumulation is expected.
Mother Nature: Fuck that lays down 3 inches of snow over a sheet of ice
There really isn't that much snow but if you brake going even 5 mph you slide like 10 feet.
Today was…just there. Watched my nephew most of the morning, then went with him to the doctor's with my sister and then went out to eat. He flipped out when he got his meds (he's a baby so he doesn't like all the nose intrusions and stuff).
I took a super long nap for no reason after we got back, and then I played the Sims 2 with my cousin. Cleaned up... blah blah blahhhh then my mom came home...
Now I'm all anxious and uncomfortable because she's such a frickin' nag. I hate being home on break. I have one more week of this bullshit.
Since I have enough energy to bitch, I have more than enough to do the opposite:
The bad spell passed. Doing fine now.
I played some Fallout: New Vegas and watched 3 episodes of Doctor Who.
It was a splendid day indeed.
Sick. Feels like someone put a cactus into my throat. Coughing hurts like hell. Then 39 celcius of fever (Don't really know how to say it right) and soo cold. This wouldn't really bug me but my girlfriend was meant to come here for weekend and I don't want for her to catch this -_-
damn, my sympathies man.
@thread: i WAS going to go to the gym today but the snow suddenly came in and fucked over my plans.
guess i'll watch the rest of baccano and play more black ops today.
Just heard I have to go to hospital for 3 days again because of some radioactive iodine treatment I'm getting… in the middle of a very important exam period.
I'm really pissed right now.
@Silent:

Oh my gosh. I'm so sorry to hear this, Silent. Try not to treat this situation as the end of it? There's a chance that things will still work out; just try to raise your shoulders and fight your way through this, yeah? Maybe you can study in the hospital or something? All the best for your academics and health and all! You'll be in my thoughts, sweetheart.
Actually, the doctor said I have to wait with taking exams until my thyroid hormone levels are back to normal, which will be at least a two month wait, which means I'm going to have to do 3 exam periods (one consisting entirely of resits from my october tests) back-to-back in April. Ouch.
I think I can study there though, I'm just supposed to go in an isolated room for two nights because of the radiation.
I'll try not to, thanks.
Backing down is not my style anyway.

Slient, do remain strong. One of my best friends is an oncology nurse, and she says that thyroid cancer is one of the easiest to treat from a medical perspective (you were the guy with thyroid cancer, right?), which means your prognosis ought to be excellent. Keep the faith! Studying is always waiting, right, so be good to yourself and concentrate on getting well through this. Other stuff will be there when you're ready.
lol, silent is a girl. check the picture thread XD
good luck silent, i wish you all the best. =]
On topic:
It seems like a lot of my loved ones have been struck down with health problems over the last 5 years.
Dad - put out his knee for a while. then had a stroke at work, and was diagnosed as type 2 diabetic.
Mum - trapped a nerve in her back after leaning over, and was unable to straighten her back for about 10 minutes.
Was in pain for a few weeks after, where i gladly waited on her hand and foot.
Grandma (Mum's side) - Died in 2005 after her cancer went un-noticed until it was too late… i was crushed, and missed several days of school.
Grandma (Dad's side) - had a bad stroke last year that gave her a bad lisp. it's gotten much better now though.
Next door neighbor (Leslie) - has inoperable cancer =[ they gave him half a year to live, but he's been astounding everybody by living for 2 years since. Though he doesn't look well at all, and has multiple health problems. he's thinner and weaker every day, it probably won't be long now ;;
Neighbor across the street (Margaret) - 5 years ago they discovered late cancer in her hand, and they saved her by cutting off her blackened little finger… but the cancer came back inside her torso half a year later and every couple of months since then she's had to go and have reductions to keep the cancer at bay. it's uncurable but they've been prolonging her life. Yet, my mum approached me with a grim face today. she said "margaret's cancer is too strong now, her days are now officially numbered" ;;
i'm sure there's more but i forget... we bury certain thoughts for a reason...
Keep holding on, you should be fine! :c
As for me.. uh.. I guess I'm jittery because of reapplying to uni, or choosing not to. If I don't, my dad will no doubt be worrisome about it, because I'm already two-years worth into debt and for him it's like seeing history repeat itself (and it'd be the same for my boyfriend too, who dropped out of a really crappy college), however, I wouldn't be wasting thousands of pounds just learning on my own.
If I do, that's another several grands' worth of tuition down the drain, and possibly thrust into a situation I'm barely even 'trained' for (I know I'm some ways ahead of what I was before I took the year out, though I've still a long way to go)… but I'd be getting a degree.
My head is full of 'this is going to take a lot longer than a year out, you might as well quit uni altogether and do it yourself, the hard way, for as long as it takes'. The other half says 'if you're going abroad, you'll need a degree for your visa (required for the visa according to the admin of CA) if you want to work elsewhere (America, Canada, a hotspot for my boyfriend's potential voice-acting career, and my possible animation one)'.
Most of me tells me I never know what I'm doing. I suddenly have the awkward feeling of being pushed for time. Guess I have to be really ready to jump on a situation. I guess the next few days is me internally being a nervous wreck. ...Time for an epiphany? :ninja: Or a slap in the face, whichever works..
Gaahhh. I just realised that I will have a pretty annoying timetable next semester. I have Friday off, but I have quite a few evening classes, which is a drag cause it feels like my whole day's occupied. However, that doesn't compare to the fact that I will need to have an 8AM class, which I haven't had in ages. (Well I had those last sem, but they were skippable classes. ) Forcing myself out of bed that early is a trial on its own, but trying to pay attention and actually produce meaningful thoughts at that hour is kinda unimaginable.
I'm also struggling over where to place it. I can set it on a Monday, but I have two/three two-hour pretty strenuous classes right after that. Alternatively, I could set it on a Wednesday. Then I would have a six-hour break until 4pm; my day in school would be like 8AM-8PM, which is erhgirjtrwjthpre. :getlost::sad:
Blast it all.
I heard on the radio that the Maas river is threatening to flood the village my dorm is in with everybody in it isolated from the outside world with all entrance roads being under water.
I'm happy that I'm at my parents' house and my dorm is not on the ground floor so my stuff will be safe there, but still, I might not even be able to go to school if this keeps up. :(
On the positive side of things, I just got hooked on the Colbert Report. :D
ok silent i hope everything will get better , i am here for you
and yeah i heard about the floods , damn
I'm so in love with this girl
Life just kind of dances through her from her smile down to my feet.
Amazing she's a whole new form of life.
Brown eyes blazing
AND SHE'S GOING TO BE MY WIFE
Got a strange wake-up call today.
I was dreaming about teaching my friend some cool fighting moves that I made up on the fly, then Scarlett Johansson turned up and wanted me to do one on her. As I moved in, she snogged me.
That was the most pleasant transition from sleeping to wakefulness I ever had.
Ok, today I just got my paycheck from last month. I worked 120hours and pre-tax that makes 898,73Euros but because of the fucked up tax I only get 691,77 Euros paid out.
I'm seriously PISSED.
Well. At least it's still enough to pay my bills and save some money for later. Still, pisses me off like hell.
My fever jumped again back to 39 which pretty much settles that no school for me on monday:
1. Missing prom practices -> My prom date will have to be there alone
2. Another delay for not seeing my girlfriend.
3. Another day to spend on bed… -___-
And my voice disappeared which world is propably really glad about. But my fingers still work so have at you!
I've just watched a documentary about North Korea. All I can say is: Woah, incredible…
Prom practice? Never heard of that before :ermm: .
We call Prom 'the Formal'
So we have 'Pre-Formals' which is probably our equivalent to what Hawkolf's talking about. I think It's just like a low-key version of the 'prom.'

This propably. It's called "Dances of the elderly" roughly translated :D Every year second graders in high school do it. I'm on the third but I'm doing it again with my friend.
I remember my prom…
! Ditched that scene and saw this exact concert, instead:
! Oc13Hkn1PrA
sigh. i lost my keys for the third time in the past two weeks. currently huddling in a playground listening to stand out while waiting for someone to get home, which will take another hour and a half at least. i kinda feel like a kid again though, which makes me happy. yay.
also, today was my first day back at school. got a few textbooks, had one lecture, and caught up over lunch with a pretty close friend of mine. i saw quite a number of friends i haven't seen in a while cause of the holidays, which was really nice. i don't think i realised how much i've missed them until i was hugging them.
