Housepets!

BESTES JOY POSSIBLE: I FINNALLY WATCHED ALL FOUR INUYASHA MOVIES
x3
I feel so complete

Joy:Wings beat chicago this afternoon

Sorrow:most of the people I invited cant make it to my dorm tonight

joy:Still have 4 people coming over. Time to celebrate turning 19 by losing the last bit of respect my roommate had for me!!!!!!

joy:Found used copies of the 3rd and 4th volumes of Transmetropolitan for 8 bucks a piece today.(they're usually 15 or so)

Joy: Decent weather lately

Joy: A online mate and I found a game we enjoy playing together. There isn't very much we share in common when it comes to gaming, so this makes for a nice change.

Sorrow: Couple of days ago, I left the water in the sink. Woke up the next day to find a drowned mouse in it....I'm so damned lucky I hadn't had an inspection for a while. Also mice have chewed a hole thru the wall in my bathroom, going to hate to explain that when my flat gets inspected next....

Joy: I get to go for three days and I cannot wait

Sorrow: it's a three and half hour drive back to the shop then home.

Sorrow: no privacy at all. Why are parents so nosy

Sorrow - Church moved from it's old location to a new one, now I can no longer ride my bike to church and stop by the library and feed the birds after church with the free bread we get.

That's the way it is...

Joy: I love winter whenever it snows. We got a bit yesterday, and it was great.

Gah...That sounded very convenient. Wish I could pick up such a habit with something, if I had something to leave the house for. ^^;

Joy:Best
birthday
party
ever
Can't tell:Destroyed my fan and threw it into the hallway, it's still there

Joy:Apparently there are no repercussions for this action

joy:Made peace with with my intense self loathing.

Joy:Got 8000 plus in financial aid to go to Amsterdam this summer

JOY: Bought a 4 pack of Rockstar! Yeeeaah! And 4 packs of ramen noodles! Oh yeah!

Livin' the dream!

What is Rockstar?
Sorry I live under a rock apparently

Welcome back!

I'm mixed between Joy, Sorrow, and Terrified.

I'm going to college next year.
Don't get me wrong, I am thrilled that I am going to the college that I want to go to, but I know that it is going to be a huge change.
I know the work load is going to be different, and living on my own will be difficult at first.

I am sad that I will be leaving home, because I love being with my family and my friends.
Another thing, I'm going a year earlier than they rest of my age group, because I skipped 7th grade. So I will be going alone. I don't know anyone there.

The fact that my life is going to change in less than 8 months is more than I can fathom.

The thing that I am scared of the most are the people.
In high school, I have been asked to drink, among other things, on more than one occasion, and it was really easy to decline, but this will a lot more intense. I have no problem saying No to this, but I can't go home at 3:20 anymore.

I know that college is fun, and that it is exciting, it is just plane terrifying to me.
My entire world is going to change in less than a year.

Can anyone else relate to this?

well honestly not much changed for me in my transition last year. I still don't have many friends, my work load isn't that much but I guess it depends on your class load.

I would suggest you join a club of some sort to make friends. good friends that will respect your wishes to not drink.

A little bit, yes.

JOY!:
My t-shirt just became 20% cooler.


Sorrow:
School tomorrow.
:...okay:

I have actually never seen the point in getting drunk when your underage.
You risk getting in legal trouble, it forces you to be stuck in a house, and you don't have enough will to stop yourself from creating harm to others or getting hurt.

I'm also hoping that I don't get unlucky with a future roommate.

It is scary
but it's also incredibly awesome.
College is going to be great if you let it

I have actually never seen the point in getting drunk period, for the same reasons.

The closest I ever got was when I finished a SMALL bottle of wine which gave me a buzz, but didn't make me drunk. Even THAT scared me, and I knew I did not want to experience it ever again.

well you're certainly the minority there
At least if my college is any indication

Joy:Me and my roommate are finally starting to warm up to each other

I hope it's your college who's the exception. I really do.

There are some alcoholic beverages I don't mind, but I'm turned off by bad taste, so there are only a few whose taste I like.

And I stay away from the hard stuff--if it's more alcoholic than wine, I don't want it. And I don't drink it to get drunk or even get a buzz, but only for a combination of the taste and for my digestion.

It's hard to say
there've been some insane parties on my campus but my friends who go to Grand valley (West coast of Michigan) say there isn't a huge party scene.

There isn't a cream, and don't call me Shirley.

Seriously, though, you don't have to be a teetotaler, just be responsible when it comes to something like alcohol.

Joy: I made a Kid Cry... HARD!

Joy: I have a New Net Provider

Sorrow: I don't think my new Net Provider will last long...

I understand you're evil, and I respect that, but you don't have to rub it in by saying you take pleasure in the pain of little children, dude. it's not right.

Everyone is evil to some extent. We're all located somewhere in the spectrum of sadomasochism. KizerZin just revels in tormenting others which is understandable. Its not a matter of morality, there needs to be someone that tortures and someone that's being tortured. It would be nice if all that didn't exist, but it does and no one can do anything about it.

there, I fixed it, I wasn't being that serious.

Blech: My weekend is over, exams time.

Joy: It was four days long, so I really shouldn't complain.

No offense, but....

Baloney.

All of it.

That's my sorrow for this thread, that people buy into this baloney.

Sorrow: Well, I've had just about the worst day. So, me and my brother had to install a TV and my brother was blaming me for having to do it because w were supposed to do it yesterday but I wasn't home. So he starts treating me like crap which I'm used to, but than he punches me and punches me until he just leaves, things were said, and now I'm sore. I hate it here sometimes, its days like this that lead to me just siting in front of my X-box, doing nothing but get fat.

Well there is something to that line of thinking
we all have evil impulses/thoughts/ect.
But it is possible to rise above the darker side of one's nature and not act on them (or more likely realize they aren't impulses that should be acted on and at least try to restrain yourself)

well, not to that extreme, but nobody's perfect. not in body, nor in mind. we just can usually tell right from wrong.

now let's stop debating the dark tendencies of the human psyche and get back to joys and sorrows.

Sorrow: tomorrow's my early class.

sorrow:My favorite books movies bands ect. keep reminding me how much life is a terrible disgusting and pointless exercise.

Joy: I wouldn't trade my existentialism for anything despite the obvious downsides of having such a worldview
