Today...
Last night at 7 it was a regular quiet weeknight with nothing planned, then all of a sudden people were coming over and by 10 we had like 15 people drinking, open spirit bottles everywhere, a girl was throwing up in the toilet and the floor was covered in popcorn. (that last part was kinda my fault because I started a competition of trying to get it down a girls shirt, though another girl did most of it) I live in a [bleep]ing collage movie..

"I want a girlfriend/boyfriend", and other such relationship advice
You've (likely) been rejected and learned that it's not all that bad, which is a good thing. If you're interested in what I have to say, check out my blog posts, and the one in my sig that was removed from my blog. It saves a lot of repetitive posts, and hopefully has been helping people.

It seems like a no. It will usually be a no by default because she doesn't know you. Imagine it from her point of view: "what if its awkward" "what if he's weird" "i have other things I could be doing" If you try to ask her out straight away for whatever reason, you need to show confidence. Its not like the movies where the attractive girl says to the nervous guy: "i don't know you but what the hell, I was planning on doing nothing anyway." Next time you should start talking to her first. If she's in your class there is no need to rush, you have plenty of time to attract her and build rapport. Rushing into it nervously is going to scare her away.

That's a strange choice of parts. IMO you will get much better value for money if you go with a sandy bridge build. i5 2500s are the same price as i5 760 here, I assume it would be similar wherever you are. Then you could save some money by avoiding the 'specially designed' 1155/1156 ram and sticking to 1333 which will give the same performance, so then you can afford a decent graphics card. Just my 2c anyway. Today I [bleep]ing got thermal paste on my jeans... Scrubbing it with rubbing alcohol and it's not working too well. To make up for it I'm having a sunday sesh at a place with $3 steak and chips and cheap drinks.

I got mine from zenni optical. Extremely cheap prices and you can upload a picture of yourself to see what they look like on you. They start at like $10 for a basic pair and even titanium ones are around $40. Then they have stuff like thinner lenses, anti reflective coating, tint etc for.a few bucks and that costs hundreds in aus retail.

Train driving jobs are pretty damn competitive I hear. I think mine would have been less competitive and even a lot of the apprentices are getting near the 6 figure mark. They even pay you to study elec engineering if you want. Today I actually did some work finally. The last fortnight has been basically summer camp.

Oh this is the one that got drunk and made out with another guy in front of you, and now shes upset about that? Doesn't seem like a quality girl to me, id forget about her personally.

Just lost a long reply that I cbf redoing, but basically.. Your biggest mistake was probably being apologetic for something you didnt need to apologize for. Highschool girls get over stuff quickly most of the time so if you hold your ground it could be fine. If she doesnt get over it, do you really want to date a girl who gets pissy over something like that when you aren't even together anyway? She sounds like the kind of girl that would try to keep you from spending time with the boys and want you to constantly be with her.

Tattoo general
I see a lot of douche bag tattoos in my age group, ones that look like the walked into any parlor and flipped through the book and picked something they thought looked good. The worst are tribal tattoos and the southern cross. I don't have any tattoos, but I'm considering getting thor because of my viking blood and career with electricity.

Today I've been reading a lot about finance and trying to work out how screwed we are, and holy jumping [cabbage] balls. I'm currently watching a documentary called inside job and I have to pause it every 5 minutes, and go to google thinking "that has to be sensationalized. There is no way we are being [bleep]ed that much. Oh wait, we are."

Do [cabbage]. Have another look for that cert II/III in transport and logistics (warehousing) that comes with a fork ticket - all paid for by the government. Once you do that you've pretty much got a guaranteed job of $20-$30+/hr and you will have the money to move out and start looking for a career you'd rather have. If you really can't find one down there try further north. If we didn't have 6 people in our house currently I'd make you crash on our couch and get the ticket.

The left to right thing isn't true, so you need more brackets. My girlfriend does a math degree and she says that there isn't enough information in that question to answer it properly - brackets to prioritize the division or multiplication. You wouldn't come across something like this in a real math problem afaik because it would have a definite answer with brackets.

Still relevant to high school. Elaborate Like, physically started moving her on to him and once she was wasted he pretty much had her pinned down and him trying to make out with her :| If she was trying to resist him and he kept going I would have thrown him out the front door. Been busy lately. Are you studying full time or something? Do you really need to work that much?

Jesus that was quick. Are you sure you were even ever in love with her? @ First bold, it did work for me in combination with the second bold. To be more attractive you need to have your own [cabbage] sorted first. Have passions, hobbies and opinions. Get at least a basic understanding of the human body and mind. Keep busy with less time doing nothing productive. Joining a gym for example is great because it does this plus build muscle which is attractive also. In the meantime, faking confidence can work but it is a short term solution. This will likely be an issue of a lack of attraction. Girls will clear their schedule for brad pit. I had the same issue courting my current girlfriend because I went in a bit strong. As soon as I stepped back a bit and became a bit more aloof to build some more attraction, all of a sudden she had plenty of free time to see me. Avoid doing this. Take it slow, see what happens and have fun. Don't force anything. I have a post about flirting in my blog if you want to check it out. In the eye contact situation, walk straight over to her and say "you can't look at me like that and not say hi." If she asks 'like what,' say "like you just want to eat me." This has even worked for me when she wasn't even looking at me. Expect to be blown out many times. The worst that can happen is that you get embarrassed and feel like crap for a little while, keep at it. Don't be rude, just say you're having fun meeting new people and to have a nice day/night. If she outright says that she is too hot for you, tell her that beauty is common but beauty without a 2d personality like hers' seems to be rare. You don't want that kind of girl anyway. >"jerk" See, there's a very very fine line between being confident and being an abrasive jerkass who needs to be knocked down a peg for being pompous asses. A lot of them cross that line, and yet, are with hotter girls. There's nothing to logically justify that. I cannot find any form of justification for it. No, not even this trope could possibly justify their behavior. Girls aren't attracted to jerks, just some of the things jerks have such as confidence. Don't hate. Don't act like you want to be her boyfriend then. Treat her like your bratty little sister. Important, yes. Mastering it in a weekend, definitely not. Keep reading stuff over and over to ingrain it into you, and try to pay attention to the body language of others. The best time to do it depends on the situation, but there is no issue with adding her first. Elaborate

Did you turn of the lights/electricity?
I was told at work that since the powerplants will keep producing the same amount of power as usual, earth hour doesn't technically do anything. Putting electrical items like hot water on a control tariff (the one the power company turns off at peak times in exchange for a cheaper rate) apparently is better on the environment. It does this by lowering peak usage, therefore lowering the power output on the transformers which are set to meet peak times constantly.

Dan is in love after 7 months with her. (8 if you include the time not being exclusive, 8 and a half from meeting her if you include courting.)
