I have that all the time. What you should do is try to figure out what's bothering you and talk to someone you can relate to and then have some of the work done separately by someone else so you don't wind up playing catchup.

Joy :making a movie this summer it's going good so far. But im just in pre production.

Huge anxiety : don't have a job lined up after August so I need to figure that out.
Things are going good at your job, but you don't have that job after August? :?

Sorrow: unless I'm really lucky I'll probably end up as a code monkey somewhere while designing video games in my spare time, as opposed to doing it full time.
Joy: I won't find that out for a while so for now I'll spend a few months focusing on game design.
Hey, it's a start. :3

It has something to do with my stomach, it feels empty even after eating, almost painfully so at times. It's just odd, maybe it wasn't hunger.

Joy: In a surprising turn of events, my parents got a little black and white chihuahua puppy named Busby. :D He was the runt of the litter - he is currently 1 pound and is expected to only reach 5.

Yikes, then he'd have the infamous 90s 'tude xD

Congrats for the baby chihuahua Douglas~

@UNP: Yeah, it turns out that I have been drinking less water, and the humid weather has been affecting me. It doesn't totally abate, the stomach pain, but at least it's controllable. Thanks for the insight

Super joy: it's my last day of normal school. I still remember in August being horrified to walk into the school and now I just want to leave. :lol:

Ultimate horrifying, gut wrenching sorrow: FINALS!!! I have finals for algebra and science tomorrow and Wednesday. I don't know what I'm doing anymore. Studying is ugh.

that is called lethargy and it doesn't go away until your body feels like it's sufficed with enough entertainment or sleep to compensate for immunity stress or otherwise. Give yourself a short rest then go back to it.

Joy: Heh, so many graduations! (Woo! to anyone who did it!) I'm one of them... High School only though, still get to experience five years of college. Had to give back the laptop the school gave to us... For all the stuff it blocked and what not, was the first real experience on the internet, got me here at least as well as a few other minor places.

Got so bummed that I would have to go back to the restricted time limit of like never being able to see the glory that makes up the information hole called the internet I had to go out and buy a laptop for myself. Not so good, but it's mine, can use public places and no more blocked stuff. So now I get to see the whole place of the internet... The good places only though.

What is the typical internet user stuff; Skype, Facebook, YouTube, hehe... All that internet stuff out there that one can hear of and never see.

Hang in there, fight it back with a vengeance too!

Uhm: The atmosphere at the home when the body's still there is so heavy, that I got sad myself by proxy. Then when the body is sent to the mosque for prayers, the house immediately cheered up with chatter. It's just odd.

Morbid joy: I finally get to witness a Muslim body preparation process for burial. I've only ever witnessed how a Christian body is embalmed with my late grandfather, and I find the process very interesting. The Muslim version is just as unique and interesting

Good on you for talking about it and for trying to beat it. That means you don't really want whatever it is you were addicted to. You can beat this! Stay strong! It's normal to be stressed when you're beating an addiction too but you don't have to let the stress take over. Acknowledge that it's there and then put it to the back of your mind. And don't be embarrassed. Never be embarrassed to ask for help.

Ok, i'm sure dreaming about games is fine, but i doubt you could be dreaming about them all the time unless you think you have a reason for it. What do you think causes it?

Relatively deep but neutral thought: Lifes been going along. 4 months have gone by and I've graduated from boot camp and combat training. Now I'm on a bus heading to my occupational school.

A little Sorrow: That means the start of classes is getting near.

Guys, you don't have to be a girl to date a guy. That said, Shadow is under no obligation to reveal their gender if they do not wish.

I tend not to work with sheet metal near as much as wood. I'm a carpenter at heart. :D
