Joy: I got a promotion (and, of course, a raise).
Sorrow: I have to work from 6:00 A.M. till 3:00 P.M. next week (so I can shadow another member of the management team).
Joy: My long-term schedule will not be a morning shift.

Joy: this morning I got to drive my cousin Scott's Nissan Maxima. It's a Manuel, and I have little practice with them, so I drove it around to get a feel for it. I did pretty good. oh, and i got the car up to 90, but don't tell Scott. ;D

Sorrow- I don't think I'm gonna read the comic for a while. It isn't that I don't like it- I love it- but maybe I like it... too much.

That's about how I used to draw, and I've improved to the point where I've gotten compliments--without even being taught. So take heart. You can improve if you want to.Cm4F wrote:Sorrow: I can't draw...

Joy: My first taste of iced lemon tea was awesome. I also got home early today from work!
Sorrow: The reason i went home was because my job is becoming stressful though. At least I'm still doing good without any trouble at work because of it, so it's cool.
Joy: They gave ice cream bars out at work!
Sorrow: Mine was melted

Re: Joys And Sorrows
Sorrow: My thoughts depress me more than actual events.
I've been told that my self-deprecation is actually a defense mechanism to prevent myself from judgement and the like.
It is probably true...
I've never realized it until now but perhaps I may have too much pride, not a lack of it.
My unwillingness to accept others' opinions is probably attributable to my stubborness.
I would say someone like me is better off living by him/herself. Yet, I still long for communion.
I don't know if it is impudence or sagaciousness that I insist on learning about myself.
Sorrow: I've spent four weeks or so in pursuit of intellectual endeavors as well as travelling.
I am just sullen at my lack of progress.
I guess the more you know, the more you find out how little you know.
How ironic, I am just intelligent enough to know that I am stupid.
Maybe I am too idealistic, but I just do not like the idea that there are clear social divisions by your limitations.
I don't know why this depresses me so much, maybe it is because I deem myself inferior to the masses, but I don't want to accept the fact that some people are innately superior to others.
It is unfair to advise total social equality because it usually ends up as a disaster. Some people have toiled and truly deserve those positions, but some people, no matter how hard they try, will remain in poverty.
I'm sure that I'm not the only one that went through this thought process. I'm sure there are thousands of books that were written to address this issue. It's just that I am frustrated by the fact that people who are arguably more obtuse than I am, who are just as inept as I am, seem to be much happier... They are not concerned with this fact. Maybe I ask for too much...
Please, I am not asking for pity or encouragement. I will message you if I need to talk to you.

Re: Joys And Sorrows
What, do you WANT to be miserable? You're not asking for pity or encouragement but you know you're going to get it by publishing it all here. True humility means accepting yourself for who you are, even if that's someone worse--or better--than you imagine yourself to be, and loving who that person is.Wanderer wrote:Sorrow: My thoughts depress me more than actual events.

Try to be patient with yourself. You're not on a time table. And lack of knowledge doesn't mean stupid.
And NO ONE is innately superior to others in all ways--only in some ways, and inferior in others, and equal in others. It balances out. True equality is different from the more enforced kind.
Maybe you're just trying too hard to be in control. I understand that--I'm the same way, and I'm trying to work past that. I haven't fully gotten there yet. And I'm not as happy as I might be but I believe that can change. I'm a LOT happier than I used to be.

It's a reboot the same way Christopher Nolan's Batman movies are a reboot of the older batman movies, so it does change the story.
It was pretty good. I liked Andrew Garfield more than I liked Toby Maguire

Re: Joys And Sorrows
No, it adds the mechanical web shooters which is whats in the comic, and the love interest is Gwen Stacy, who was Peter's first girlfriend in highschool, its just another time in his life that the other movies weren't in. Its the same time in his life as show Spectacular Spider-Man focused on. From what I've heard, it sticks more with the comics than the ones with Toby McGuyer, now lets hope they include a GOOD venom in this series, shall we?Cm4F wrote:Was it good?

I liked how it built a relationship between Peter and his aunt and uncle, while still showing his parents and him not having been an orphan his whole life. His parents have been an oft-debated topic in that regard...

Re: Joys And Sorrows
I didn't like Peter Parker's character in the movie, nor did I like the scientist guy. He just wasn't believable as a villain. The supporting cast was great, though, and I liked the action.

Re: Joys And Sorrows
I think they should have kept Spiderman as Tobey. It is insulting to make a remake when the previous actor isn't even dead yet!
I'd rather have an slightly older looking Spiderman than a smug punk skater boy.
Oh man, do I get worked up about trivial things.

He was basically a typical "cool" kid who had an informed nerdiness to him. He's bullied (for some reason), he's smart (which the Einstein poster and the superfluous mechanical lock will tell you), but there's nothing really nerdy about him.RandomGeekNamedBrent wrote:yeah, they kind of messed with his nerd vibe.

Joy/Sorrow, but mostly Joy: I've decided that I'm going to start working for dad again. I put in a notice at my job yesterday and I'll be done by the 18th. I was a bit sad when I did that because I've been there for 6 months and got to know some cool people. I'll still see everyone when I go back to the store though.
I am looking forward to work with dad though. It'll be like the good old days.

No, no one can--and when you let go of that desire, you suffer less and can relax.

Re: Joys And Sorrows
Things are starting to look better~
My best friend came home for the weekend and we spent the day together; it was exactly what I needed. My boyfriend came home from vacation and now I feel like I've got both of my best friends back. Gah, I really missed them!
On another note, NEVER purchase an iPhone if you live in a rural area. You will not be able to make a call, and there will be all kinds of connection issues. I called Verizon, pretty much fuming and refusing to pay for such an expensive phone (for two years) when the service is so bad. I was in my 14 day grace period so I was able to switch out to another one, and it turns out that they DO continue to make phones with small data allowances for a low price, if you know how to talk to them. As a result, I got a new phone that is almost exactly like my old phone. ^_^ While it runs a little laggy navigating around menus and the camera isn't very good, call quality is great, texts send quickly, I can still check my online accounts, and it's not making me commit financial suicide every month.
Sorrow: The winds from this thunderstorm are scaring me. ;_; And I have senior pictures tomorrow morning, but I can't take a shower with raging lightning outside.
