I have the most huge, stupid work experience diary to fill in. Of course I was meant to fill it in every day after placement but I didn't bother so now I have it all to do in one go. And it's due tomorrow. Love my life right now!
good luck with that! work experience diaries are the bane of any college course that involves work placement!
got a check today for tax back from 2010! I'd gone to the tax office last week about getting tax back from last year, and I hadn't earned enough to pay tax. So I was surprised to get tax back for 2010, guess they must have looked at that year and decided to give me money! Woohoo! 0 -
Oh Novella I know the feeling... After my final placement I left my diary until the last minute and had over 50 pages left to do over the last 2 days. I finished it at 7am on the day it was due, got a couple of hours sleep and got the bus to Athlone to hand it in.
I'm not long awake so I'm gonna change the clothes on my bed, put new ones on the fold-out bed my bf uses, tidy my room, have a shower, knit and watch the United game later.0 -

That woman has absolutely no cop on IMO.almostnever wrote: »Oh Christ, I am incredibly sick of people commenting on the fact that I don't drink. How the hell is the concept so baffling!? Is it offensive to people? Does it ruin their night? My friend's aunt bought me a vodka and Red Bull despite me telling her that I don't drink, I have to be up at 5 tomorrow morning and have a long day of college and studying and a moot tomorrow night so I need to be fresh anyway. I politely declined and then she held my nose and went to pour some of it in my mouth...not appropriate at all! Seriously, what the hell? Why couldn't she understand that I didn't want it!? :rolleyes: I ended up getting really pissed off and left quite early, especially because even more people felt the need to comment/call me dry. The fact I was singing karaoke when sober seemed to pass them by completely. Ugh, this is why I prefer going out in Dublin, everybody leaves me the hell alone and if anyone comments it's usually in jest.

She needs to grow up and get a grip. Forcing someone to drink? If anyone did that to me I'd have very little to do with them after it tbh. There is no excuse for her behaviour, she should be ashamed of herself.
Thanks Jane, I'm OK now though.Jane_LS_88 wrote: »Wow Muffin are you okay hun? PM if you need a chat. xx
Yay, Wrestlemania! I'd say the bf and his friends are like children haha. They're all huge fans of The Rock. He's looking very well I must say. Yum yum. 
What upset was so so stupid.
My dad and his family (parents, siblings, siblings partners, nieces/nephews and my (half) siblings) are all gone/going away on a family holiday to see other family member and I am the only one (on my dad's side) not going. None of them even asked me about me going.
I was meant to phone dad yesterday, but when I text him to ask him to log into Skype so I could ring him he text back that he was out with the dog he'd be home shortly so I text him back and asked him to text me when I could ring and I heard nothing from him until one o'clock when he text me to say he had last minute packing to do which is why he hadn't text me.
It's just like he is putting them before me, it's so silly because they are his family too and just the fact that I am the only one not going in a way it just make's me feel left out. It's so so stupid and I don't know why it's getting to me and upsetting me so much when it shouldn't. They
This reminds me of when I was a toddler and I was sitting/standing on a chair at the table and it was my birthday and the cake was in front of me so I decided to put my finger in the flame and then started crying when it hurt but I refused to take my finger away from the flame in case it hurt more.grindelwald wrote: »
I remember my daughter burned her finger and thumb on a bedside lamp(she touched the hot light bulb). She slept in my arms with me holding her hand in a bowl of cold water, she was around 2.
Another time I was sitting on the bottom of the stairs and I'd gotten hold of a lighter and set me hair on fire.
I started screaming and mam came running out and saw me there crying/screaming with a flame on the top of my head.Stench Blossoms wrote: »I remember once going to the ATM and getting the dreaded 'Insuffcient funds' message.

Going to do more cooking today, making Spinach and potato soup and for dinner I am making chicken with streaky bacon wrapped around it and I'm making a mushroom sauce to go with it. Hope it's nice.0 -

I'm just sitting here writing a really boring essay when I get a text from boy from class : "I know you're probably really stressed so I bought you 3 kinds of Ben and Jerry's for later. It seemed to make you happy last time (:"

I haven’t been posting much lately because I’ve been feeling pretty depressed and antisocial and I didn’t want to subject you all to my misery and constant moaning but I have a happy post today and since you all put up with my negativity you deserve to hear something positive from me.
I ordered a dress online a few weeks ago for my college awards night. I regretted ordering it about 2 days later because I thought I had the size wrong or the quality would be terrible and that I didn’t deserve a nice dress anyway. My depression has been getting to me lately, so much so that I very nearly self-harmed one day last week. No one else was home to distract me and my thoughts were racing and I just couldn’t cope with it. It’s been months since I felt that bad and it really knocked me for six. Anyway I somehow made myself wait, the feelings dissipated a bit and I didn’t cut myself. I pretended to everyone at home and in college I was grand like I always do and hid away in bed when I could. Have been feeling pretty shít ever since though and haven’t been able to get out of bed all weekend because I just don’t see the point.
Anyway the dress arrived today and it’s absolutely amazing! It fits so so well. Not perfectly because it’s waaay too long, but that’s only because I’m a 5ft midget. But it sort of flows over the parts of me that I’m self-conscious about and emphasises the good parts of my body. (Yes Mollikins, you do have good parts). Putting it on and looking in the mirror made me feel so so beautiful and god I really needed to feel good about myself right now. My mind is pretty relentless in telling me that I’m ugly and that I don’t deserve to feel good about myself amongst other things so this dress came at the perfect time. So basically right now I’m sitting here with a big smile on my face and I won’t be crying myself to sleep tonight.
Congrats tomissex. Delighted for you.
Bet it eases the disappointment of not getting Madrid? You deserve it hun.
Novella, pretty please send that guy in your class to me. He’s an absolute keeper. Good luck with the work experience diary. Hope it won’t take you too long.
I think I might try on that dress again... 0 -

Thanks so much! Yeah it really does, especially since I really didn't think I'd get anywhere!
Really crap to hear you haven't been doing so good. Please wander on and drop a PM if your mind is racing. You're never alone
I think you should spend the day in your magic dress!0 -

Thanks hun. I really appreciate it. I find I’m better off keeping to myself and working through things on my own than offloading on other people. But it’s great to know the option to talk to someone is there so thank you.
Ya know, I probably would spend the day in the dress but I’m so scared of tearing it or getting it dirty or falling over and breaking my neck since it’s so bloody long that I probably won’t. You could nearly make 2 dresses out of the extra material on the end of it!
Now if only my internet would work properly... :mad:0 -

Mollikins, I'd be careful about that. Keeping things in is never good for you. Even if you just say it/write it without needing anyone to reply back to you.
I don't want to sound like I'm lecturing or anything but I worry about people who do this (mostly coz this is why my mum and I do and we haven't turned out so great). Look after yourself please and don't keep things in. Your head will always twist things to make them worse whereas actually vocalising the words can help things be a little more realistic :-)0 -

If you ever have racing thoughts like that again and feel like hurting yourself, don't be afraid to send me a PM. I'll always listen if you feel like there's no one else. I know that's not great since I'm pretty much a total stranger but I've been where you've been so I could probably relate.
So happy to hear about your dress by the way! Hope you have a really wonderful time at your college awards night.
As for the guy, I'm kind of hanging on to him myself:) But I'll share! 0 -

Muffin, glad to read you're feeling better but don't be afraid to PM if you ever need to. If something upsets you that much it's never silly. xx
Novella that boy sounds completely adorable!
Mollykins, I was really sorry to read that you're having such a rough time lately. Glad you're feeling better though. Just wanna give you a little bit of advice though. Don't keep things bottled up and try to deal with it on your own. It's always better to talk to someone. PM is always open if you need someone to chat to. xx
SarahBeep! the thing was definitely three times the size of a normal one, it was massive! I still couldn't kill it though. I let it fly over to the window and I let it out. 0 -
