I cant use it either...you have to be half intelligent to use it i think!

Why the fuck are you at UNI?

What are you studying? Lazyness?

There's nothing more they can teach me about that....

I'm doing a BA in History....apparently, all that means is i pay several grand a year to have someone give me an essay question every two months and point me in the direction of the library......

I'm currently studying (all at once)

Medieval religion

Vampires in Africa

Escalation of the Vietnam War & the military history of the war
                           &
World War Two

To be fair i will have to go to campus three times this week...yes THREE times, and in total will have had 4 hrs of lectures, to compensate they have given me all of next week off  

Ah uni..........

[R4tfink]

Ah uni..........

I hate you!

[liquidvirus]

hey theyr nothing similar
i want my thread back

[The New Fiona Apple]

I've established this obvious parody of the "Feel Good, Good News" {I think that's it} threads that you see on many boards and I believe on this one.


If you have ANYTHING at all you'd like to talk about... not just good news, come here. I'm willing to talk about anything that's generating emotion in your life.... Not just the good. If you feel miserable, joyous, lonely, triumphant, anything, come here with it.

I'll start as an example of the thread for all of you.

I went to a Rutgers College Basketball game tonight and I had a very good time. They Beat Saint Mary's 66-58.

Although, the score looks like a confortable lead, St. Mary's was really holding their own with Rutgers until the end of the game. That made me nervous and made it even sweeter when we won.

I went with my father, his two brothers, and my friend GNR-Rules from the board.? A fun time was had by all especially with my older uncle's UN-PC comments in the car ride to the game.

Hopefully, basketball doesn't disapoint like the football team and make the NCAA's this year. Here's hoping.?

P.S. It's definately not limited to sports BTW. It is ANYTHING that happens.

i watched my home team kentucky wildcats blow another fuckin win as they blew the game against tennesee today, after the unbelievable hail mary loss to LSU a couple years ago i am now numbed to these losses, i knew it was gonna happen today before it even did.

on my NBA 2K5 game on xbox live i am ranked 540 in the world, i am 39-11 and i played a guy ranked 320th.

he led me the whole game as much as 15 points but i fought back and i had a 1 point lead with 20 seconds to go. he fouls me and all i gotta do is hit both free throws and then i can foul him and basically trade freethrows and win the game.

well i choked and only made one free throw, he ties the game, i hold for the final shot i have a clear lane to the basket but out of nowhere he blocks my shot, calls timeout with 4 seconds to go, inbounds the ball passes to Tracy Mcgrady and hits a shot over Ron Artest for the game winner, i am pissed at this loss! just as if it were a real game!

I'm totally depressed.

It's a time in the year when i am down like never.

First of all, because 12 years ago at xmas, i should have had a little boy. By now, i'd have a 12 year old son and i can't face xmas. it's the same every year.

Also, it's cold now. I see all these men and women outside, in sleeping bags, with their doggies to keep them company, not wanting to sleep in associative places because they are more dangerous than the streets. I gave a sleeping bag to a man the other day and he looked at me like i was some kind of messiah. He made me cry, especially because to me, it was " just" a sleeping bag.

Also, because some children will not have a xmas or xmas presies. Medias make it worse, it's this whole commercial thing. But ti's awful to be waking up feeling that life is not on your side. It's too young to feel that way.

I could go on and on and on, i know problems are there all year around, but somehow, being near xmas makes it worse. It's like, medias portray everyone so happy and in fact, there is so much sadness. This gap is so immense between illusion and reality.

I realise that although i am lucky, others aren't, and therefore, i can't be happy.

Liverpool beat Arsenal 2-1!!!!!!!

Somewhere between shocked and absolutely thrilled - scored with the last kick of the ball, after those wretched lot had managed to get an equaliser, hurrah!

[darkstar_legend]

^
that makes up for the loses to the aussies in rugby.

England just lost by 2 points, and had Jonny been in the team, they would have surely won.

The thrashing recieved from the aussies in league however was too much. Given time, Britian would surely win the next world cup.

Still, despite Liverpools shock win, mid-table is most likely. No more Europe next year...which could be a good thing.

im gettin frustrated cause i have some kick ass music but i cant write the lyrics for some reason! its getting aggravating, usually i am very prolific with lyrics but this one is givin me problems.

[Acquiesce]

Recently, my cat hasn't been acting like herself. She was laying on her bed all day, she wasn't drinking water, and she was having trouble going to the bathroom. So on Friday I took her to an emergency vet since all the normal vet offices were closed due to the holiday. The vet diagnosed her with a urinary infection, which was a relief because it's not that big of a deal. I was expecting worse such as kidney disease. Then comes the bad news. She told me she felt a mass in my cat's stomache when she examined her. She was afraid it was an enlarged liver or spleen. So she told me she wanted to run some tests, which would have set me back $450, which I really didn't have. Of course, I told her to do them anyway.

The tests however, didn't get us much further than when we started. Her blood was normal, but the mass could be seen on the x-rays. Unfortunately, we still don't know what it is. All the tests showed was that it wasn't an elarged liver or spleen. She just said it could be a tumor on her spleen, but that is extremely rare it cats. Sadly, it's also fatal.  So now I have to take her in to see a specialist which will probably set me back a lot more money. He is going to perform an ultrasound which will cost $275. I'm assuming he will have to run more tests to find out what it actually is, because I think all an ultrasound does is allow you to get a better view than an x-ray.

It's a really stressful time for me. I love my cat and would do anything for her, but it really sucks having to go into debt. It's bad enough worrying about her health. It's extra awful worrying about money. Now I don't have any money to finish Christmas shopping.

I just want my cat to be ok. I had her since I was 12 years old. That's 11 1/2 years so far. I practically grew up with her. I raised her from a 6 week old kitten. I don't know how I will handle it if I get bad news. It's unbearable to even think about.

I'm just trying to be positive. She seems perfectly normal ever since she went on her medication for the urinary infection. So I'm hoping it's nothing serious.

I've been working my ass of lately and am soooo close to getting started doing what I want to do. It is exciting and exhausting at the same time.

I finally got two days off in a row, which I need because I had a cold.

I refuse to rotate my tires even though I am a nut about maintaining my car. Don't know why.

My dogs are awesome as always.

My house in SLC is rented and the people have been problem free so far (touch wood) always paying on time.

It is good to see my old friends. I forget how much I missed them.

I am sad for my best friend who seems hopelessly depressed. His perception of life is horrible but he won't listen to me. It's amazing how much better his life would be if he just changed his outlook. He refuses, and I can't stand to be around him. I haven't called him for two weeks because of this. I miss him, but the old him. If I call him now it's just doom and gloom. I can't figure out how to help the guy.

Other than that....

Life is pretty darn good right now.

I am grateful for all of it, as always.

Honor and Power...

this is just a random rant...I apologize, it's not well written, but I had to write something...my blood was boiling last nite...

I was watching the news, and they were talking and showing clips regarding bush's visit to Canada. His smug, im better then you attitude - typical American, fuck I'd like to shake the shit out of that guy. You Americans think the world is your oyster, and that you can do as you please, that your shit doesn't stink, and your better then everyone else in this world... It's pretty amazing how ingnorant one country can be...

does everyone here know what the Victoria Cross is? the medal of honor only given out to someone who shows extreme acts of bravery - and this is reality, not a fuckn movie - real men and woman have received this very real honor, under very real circumstances. just over 1000 of them have ever been handed out since it became, and just over 900 of them, have gone to Canadians.

lets talk about weapons. its my personal opinion that weapons are for cowards, people who know that they can't win a real fight. im talking about gang members, people who cause violent crimes with weapons. and if we look at a larger scale of it, and break it down into countries, what country has the most weapons? I think we all know - can you say scared? cowardly?  I can. and now - they want to put missiles in space...wow...can't get much more scared then that...

back to the news... they decided to show how the Americans were covering bush's visit to Canada. real professional. some guy in a pokadot bow tie was going on about how we are all dog sledding, meanwhile, the Canadian woman they were talking to was trying to talk about real issues, but no, not for the American, he wanted to be a comedian..well, he was off to a good start with the red pokadot bow tie. it resembled talking to a 9 yr old brat. and then you turn around and wonder why people hate you, why people bomb you, and why people don't care when they do. one jackass was asking if we Canadians were scared of bush, cause he's got the bombs, and he mite invade us...lmfao....do it...doo it pleeease. I would join that fight, that would be something worth dieing for. but they never will, either because they remember what happened last time way back when they tried to invade Canada, they got their asses booted out, that's right, lost, the one war that Canada and the US had, Canada won. and if that's not the reason, then it could be because they know that they would be asking for a world war - with every other country fighting with Canada. and has anyone noticed that the US really likes to use the word "invade"..?

so who really is the most powerful nation? would it be the scared country with all their guns and weapons?? or would it be the one that doesn't need it, cause it would be backed by every other nation because of the respect that people have for it, if someone was to...how do you Americans say..invade it..? I think honor and doing what's right, is way more powerful then all your fucking bombs any day.

"USA!, USA!, USA!..." it sounds and looks a little German, don't ya think?

and I KNOW that not ALL Americans are like this...but the majority rules. and IM NOT anti-American, im anti-bullshit. and right now, the united states of American is ripe with it.

fuckn sick and tired...

today im feelin very lonely

if it wasnt for the US u would speak french and have the queen on your money, oh wait.....

weapons are totally for pussies, they should take all the weapons away from our troops and we shoot fight the wars bare fuckin handed

u really think canada could take the US?  this isnt hockey, im not a big gung ho patriotic person but your comments were totally stereotypical and untrue for the most part, the majority of americans arent that way and not to sound smug but canada is safe because it shares a continent with the US.  Like it or not the United States is the most powerful nation in the world

Europe didnt like it when Reagan conquered the soviets and didnt like when the berlin wall came down but i think everyone will agree the world is better off now just like 20 years from now the world will be better off with a free Iraq. Canada is respeted because u guys are part american,part British and part French, are u sure there arent a few Italians,Greeks and Russians in there somewhere?

Last night on my way home from work I got pulled over for speeding. The bad thing is I didn't have my driver license, because I was in a hurry to get to work on time and I forgot my purse.? The police officer told me that he was required to take me to jail for driving without a license. This was my response > .? But, he told me not to worry, that he wouldn't take me to jail. He just wrote me a ticket and told me to slow down. This is my first speeding ticket.? ? And, this morning after I cashed my paycheck, I was low on gas. And,?I ran out of gas on my way to get gas.? ? There I was stranded in the middle of the highway during lunch time traffic.? So, I have to get out of my car and run across the busy highway to use the phone at the nearby McDonalds to call for help, because I'm like the only person on the planet without a cell phone.

I feel... like resurrecting this thread.

And I feel like...hippiechick was cool to have around. Where did she go??

I also feel tired, lonely, rejected, pessimistic, empty, let down, and my back hurts from leaning forward to type *sigh*

I feel alright.

Where's my cd......

I still feel as good, pretty much, but my cd, where is it?
