"Temporary" Venting Thread - Page 37

Lotesse · 02-28-2006, 12:03 AM

Yes, the LALALA trick works well, or so I am told. I should do that more often myself. I get too emotionally involved in all the life (and death) around me. And wasn't it Nietsche, who said "What does not kill me, makes me stronger?" That is actually true. As far as I've experienced, anyway.

katya · 02-28-2006, 07:31 AM

Reading this thread always makes my problems seem really small, but I wanted to say it anyway. It`s not a death, and that I am really grateful for, but it is a loss. See, in Japan, graduation ceremony is on March 1st, tomorrow. And I happened to make a lot of new third year (senior) friends recently. Starting at the beginning of the year they were always in the library studying for college entrance exams, and I was in there my free hours as well, so it kind of went from me helping with English homework to just talking. And I kind of fell in "like" with one of them. I wasn`t completely sure until yesterday. But now he`s gonna be leaving and I`m really sad about it. I was actually crying yesterday just thinking about how he`s not gonna be here, and how he tried saying goodbye that day. Anyway, tomorrow is graduation and if I don`t do something probably the last time I`ll see him, so I think I might just tell him. I`m kind of scared at what he`ll say but I mean, there`s nothing to lose, right? Still, he is going to college and it will probably be kind of far away. And then I`m leaving in July but that`s kind of far off still. There`s still lots of time to spend here.

Nerdanel · 02-28-2006, 02:57 PM

no, you have nothing to lose. you really should tell him: you never know what could happen.

i'm not the best one to say anything though, since i'm sort of in the same situation.. only that he's not leaving yet (two months..).

i'll keep my fingers crossed for you.

Rev. Justin Timberlake · 02-28-2006, 03:56 PM

Nothing wrong with telling him you're in like with him.

The last sane person · 02-28-2006, 04:11 PM

Geebus BoP, you got it bad too...my sympathies on the passing of your Opa. I know what that is like. Gah...Good luck Katya with that. I doubt you will loose anything, more than likely will gain.

***Rían*** · 02-28-2006, 06:04 PM

minor vent, but *yawn* tired tired tired ...

****ing **** ****!!!!!! My parakeet just died this morning. Held her throught he poor things death twitches. AAUGH! No! Poor lil mite. She was my first pet. I wanted to be a pirate for a while and demanded that like a proper pirate, I must have a parrot. (And I just love birds) So my parents relented (my mother anyways) and took me to the pet store. I was looking around, adn finally found a cage full of big birght parakeets.

True to fashion, I fell in love with the dinkiest runt of the brood. I was a half pint pirate with a half pint parrot. Juju was a baby when I got her, and I hand raised her to be a sweet, sassy thing. and now she is gone and my room is cold and lonely. No one to sing for the joy of just seeing me. Or scold me when I am on the phone....It was not a fun thing to watch. **** I am so depressed. And it looks like my cat is gearing up to die too...just watch he is dead by end of week. knowing my luck....

littleadanel · 03-01-2006, 02:01 PM

Oh my. That is so very sad.

You got it really bad recently... Thoughts going out to you. *Moothug*

The last sane person · 03-01-2006, 05:13 PM

Well, nother vent. Sephiroth saw I was glum. Offered cigarette. I've gone through 2 packs in the last half day.

Farimir Captain of Gondor · 03-01-2006, 08:26 PM

I had an entire list of things i was going to complain about but after thinking about it i decided not to. I'm just going to list a few. It makes me angry when people ignore me. Not in the sense of not listening to what i say but not hearing it. What i mean by this is, casting out what I say because they don't feel it is either important or worth taking a moment to consider. Also, someone using their intelligence to make someone else feel stupid. I feel this is no different than someone using their muscle to make another feel weak.

There, I've vented and feel a little better.

***Rían*** · 03-01-2006, 08:39 PM

*Moothug for Sane*

I'm sorry to hear that - animals are so wonderful...

Elemmírë · 03-02-2006, 12:25 AM

I'm sorry, Sane.

I know how you feel... my cockatiel has flown away several times. We've been lucky so far, though.

Rant: Argh!!! Kant should have been shot before he had the audacity to inflict himself upon college students everywhere!!!!!

My paper's due tomorrow. Took me an hour to write an intro. Or more. I am currently dying.

You are having the worst of luck. Best of luck here out. I can't beleive that all this is happening. Dunno what else to say.

EDIT: At least you're not in as bad shape as this poor composer they were just talking about. All of his kids died horribly from different stuff, and one died on his birthday, then his wife died...sounds like Edgar Allan Poe.

Bombadillo · 03-02-2006, 01:21 AM

he last gew pages of this thread just suck. All of you guys, but esspecially BoP and Shah, you have my sympathies.

FCG, I don't think any vent is insignifigant, if it gets stuff off your chest.

Katya, did you tell him? (

) I hope so, really, 'cause it's true that you have nothing to lose. If you didn't yet, then stop mooting and call him to say how you feel, and later you'll try to meet up again to settle it in whatever way appropriate.

Count Comfect · 03-02-2006, 02:50 AM

Hm. Reading the venting thread is never happy, but this... sucks.

Best wishes to you all, especially Sane and BoP...

Vent: BUSYBUSYBUSY. I feel like a slacker for choosing to sleep.

See my post in the teacup. It`s a few pages back... Anyway, basically it`s no good. I just got back from talking to him a little today too. I just said "I`m sorry" and he just said oh and kept walking. Honestly I think that`s probably the best thing he could have done and I think everything happened exactly as it should have. But it`s still really hard.

Rev. Justin Timberlake · 03-02-2006, 07:12 AM

We are having a power crisis here in the Western Cape. Power outages at the most inopportune times. It frustrates me to no end.

Sorry to hear, Insane and Katya.
