[n3rvous]

i wish i didn't trade my pps zebra away

oh well.

[.-Tired-.]

>< Okay so I made a big mistake considering school

I was doing all of our work practically, and then I forgot the original copy in my bag before I left for a small vacation. So that got me kicked out. Now it's the night before the GOOD copy is due and I have to have it done, translated(using google translate barely), peer edited and self edited. And it's 9:12 now! I usually have a good start on things and I have a forgetful mind, no doubt, so it doesn't surprise me that I accidentally forgot. But now I'm stressed like anything and my mum isn't helping at all. Not only that but I'm tired too, so I ant focus proper >~<
I'm. Going. To. End. Up. Not. Handing. It. In. At. This. Rate! TTnTT

[storm coming.]

feel free to pm me if you want further advice/help or just need a friend. i probably won't respond until after school tomorrow, but you are welcome to pm me anytime. just throwing that out there <3 and if i skipped you don't take it personally i just don't understand what you're going through properly or didn't have the time to respond since i'm a bit busy. but you are welcome to pm me if that's the case. i hope you guys have a lovely day and remember that you are beautiful, no matter what anyone says. also regarding most everyone's cases, life isn't perfect, that's something you just have to accept, and overtime you will come to realize the negative things really make the more positive things outshine, so those negative things are in our life for a good reason. anyways, that's all <3 stay wonderful!

my entire life is over
my best friend turned against me
i don't know what i'm supposed to do

no, it's not <3 this is a great turn to a new beginning. it seems as if she wasn't that loyal, and therefore you don't deserve her as a best friend. trust me when i say this; but this was for the best. it might not seem like it now, but soon enough you will come to realization that if she turned against you, she wasn't a true and loyal friend in the first place. i know you can do better and i think you should find some new friends to hang around with. your entire life doesn't revolve around her, there are so many opportunities ahead, you just need to look past this small bump in the road as something more than a bump. it could be a mountain towards success!

you can do this, just stay away from chickensmoothie and the computer all together unless it involves your work. pretend as if your life depends on completing the assignment or something to make you more motivated? i've been in situations like these before. don't fret too much about making it perfect so much as just completing it. it's better to at least tried than to put too much effort into it that it takes you forever. get the basics down first, then if you have time, take more time on it in the end.

i wish i didn't trade my pps zebra away

oh well.

you could ask them for a trade-back, it's worth a shot. even then, life isn't about collecting pets over the internet and it might not seem like it but it isn't the end of the world. people have it much worse, for example, people are scammed and get all of their pets taken away. i'm not trying to say your problem isn't as big as others, that's just reality. but i understand how you must feel right now, and if you need a hug i'm here!

i need some motivation to start my homework help

motivation is a state of mind and can't be given to anyone. you have to believe in it yourself, and if you don't, then it's never going to come. i get that you don't want to do it, i can't blame you. just remember that doing your homework could reflect on your grades which reflect on your future. not necessarily does your entire future depend on your grades but a vast majority of it does. it might not seem like it in the short run, but doing your homework can really benefit you for many reasons. one of those reasons being that it helps improve your knowledge of the subject at hand and therefore helps you improve your grades. just remember that, and doing your homework? that decision is for yourself. that's not something someone can make for you.

I miss him so much. It hurts so bad. These past three days have been a back and forth of sobbing and pretending I'm okay. Yesterday I held it together until he said that it was time for bed. I knew what would come in the morning. I couldn't let go, it was so freaking hard. He is my everything and suddenly he's gone across the country training to for the army. I feel so empty and alone. I know it will get better, but after spending the last year together constantly, living together, shopping together, doing everything together, there's just a void now. We got married 2 days ago. Started dating two years ago and met four years ago. He is a huge part of me and for six months I know this hole in my chest will continue to grow. I desperately want to talk to him. He makes everything okay. I started crying while driving home a few days ago because I realized all I wanted was to lay my head on his chest and hear him say that everything was gonna be okay. But he was gone. I miss him so much. People say to keep busy, and that helps, for the times that I'm busy. As soon as I am given a chance to think it is all I can do not to bawl my eyes out. I love him so much.
Good luck, Private Dingus.

Ugh. Man. Life, am I right. :p

Any advice?

⚓ First off, the reason your parents now treat you differently is likely because you're older and/or they weren't sure how to handle you during and after your "dark phase." I am very sorry that they don't compliment you or your good work-- but have you considered it may be because they are used to you doing well? Sure, it's rather sad not to gain any recognition for your achievements, but to put a new perspective on it, they are probably just used to you doing well. Be proud that they are unsurprised. It must mean they expect no less! Regardless, as I usually advise, communicate with your parents about how you feel in a casual setting and in an unaccusatory tone. Since they sadly don't naturally provide it, they won't know that you need support and encouragement unless you tell them.
⚓ I'm a bit confused-- at first it was that they treated you differently but then you said they treated you the same. Sorry, but I don't know how to give advice on both at the same time without contradicting myself!
⚓ Once again, try communicating with them (separately if that works better) without coming across as accusatory. Instead of saying "You," try to use "I" statements. For example, instead of, "You treat me the same as you did back then," you would say, "I feel like I'm being treated the same as I was back then."
I'd also like to advise you to seek a therapist if you're able, who can help you through your depression and in dealing with family issues.
⚓ And on your last paragraph-- there are plenty of college-age kids who have also struggled with family issues and will be happy to leave. The reason that kids who live independently start liking their parents more than they did in the home is, well, due to multiple reasons, but the main one is that they don't have to deal with parental disputes every day.

So, the takeaway from this is:
1.) Some things can be seen in another perspective-- seek it out.
2.) Try careful communication.
3.) Seek a therapist for your situation.
4.) Know that you are not alone.
(All of these are suggestions of course, and I hope you find them helpful.)

⚓ You are an incredibly smart, gifted, and hardworking person to be where you are today. It's an awful shame that your parents have become a weight on your moving forward, but I believe in you! You've gotten this far. Even if your relationship with them remains the same, I know you can keep going until you live independently.
I wish you luck!

(I would respond to all of you who have not gotten responses yet, but this is especially difficult on mobile, so-- hugs all around. Hold fast!)

i've just been so stressed lately, i need a hug.

[Planet Karma]

okay so nobody needs to read this or respond I'm just being super petty and need to get it off my chest

me and my boyfriend are young adults, met 16 months ago but been dating 15 months and we couldn't be happier! I adore him and I like to think he feels the same way about me..
We both have dated (long term) in the past and I accept that. When he was with his now ex, he told me that she gave him a small stick and poke tattoo of his favourite lyrics at the top of his thigh and I've seen it and it's actually pretty rad.
They dated when they were 14/15 and back then my s/o was a striking image of a character from Final Destination 3 called Ian McKinley and that's what everyone called him, "Ian". In the movie Ian's girlfriends nickname is pip.
Now this is where I start to feel a bit off.
Not so long ago I noticed that on the opposite thigh, he has another small tattoo that he never mentioned that says "pip". I didn't realise the whole Pip/Ian thing at this point so laughed and asked what pip stood for and he kinda aggressively brushed it off as "an old friend" and when I asked if I knew them he got quite upset with me unnecessarily telling me to stop going on about it because it's easily covered up when he can afford it.. I was kinda hurt at how he needlessly snapped at me but I brushed it off.
Now I've realised the whole Ian/pip thing, I'm realising that he has his ex's nickname tattoo'd on him and he never thought to mention it to me?
I know it might seem pretty insignificant to him and maybe everyone reading this but we don't keep secrets and idk it just really hurt me that he never thought to mention it

This may just be my experience with serious relationships talking, but it sounds like he was trying to protect you. Having an ex's nickname on your body really isn't something someone wants to tell their significant other. He may have just handled it wrong and didn't mean to.
Think about it. There is a reason why they aren't together and you are. Communicating is key because it will keep your relationship from having any tension.
Pm me for any advice. I work very hard for my relationships.

i've just been so stressed lately, i need a hug.

*hugs and brings hot chocolate* I'm always up for a PM if you need to talk or rant. :3

[akyr]

i need a hug. the guys in my class are really gross, and they always gawk at my butt and they only talk to me for my physical features. it makes me so upset that they sexually harrass me like that, and its incredibly tiring. i just want it to stop :c
