I have a bag of crickets here in my room, and i just noticed that one of them has wings like a moth... I'm terrified to say the least.

CLONE THIS THING.

 

Seriously though, pics?

What's the next step for her recovery? :/

 

I'm glad you got to unburden yourself though; and even more than that, I hope they listen to you.

I'm not quite sure. The doctor had a really strong Egyptian accent so understanding him was difficult. But she's just going to have to be under meds for a day or two until the infection clears.

 

As for my parents... i doubt they will ever take me seriously.

What don't they take you seriously about?

What don't they take you seriously about?

Just whenever i try to have a serious conversation with them. Whenever i try to share my concerns. I'm the quiet one in the family. When i'm at home i spend 90% of the time in my room either behind the laptop or behind the books.

I've messed up so many times, i've lost their trust and it took me 2 years of hard work and sacrifice to make up for it and try and regain their trust. But even after all of that i'm still just seen as the kid.

 

EDIT: Maybe it's because im almost 21 and i have nothing to show for it. Never accomplished anything. Maybe they think because i don't take life serious i shouldn't be taken serious either.

You don't have a job? Or are you in college?

Lol i had a job about 3 years ago but it was really a joke of a job. I was an English tutor at a "school". Worked there a few months then got bored of it. Worked at a Music store last year while i was in SA. Worked there a few months before i got bored of it. Been in college for 4 years now studying different subjects. Usually i'd get bored of it after a few months then move on to the next thing. Going to the US in a month to get my pilot's license (assuming i don't get bored of it before i do).

Really just always been depending on my parents. They've never said anything so i assumed they never minded.

 

Wow, looking at that i can't really blame them for not taking me serious.

 

EDIT: Never been serious about getting a real job because my dad... he earns a lot. And it wouldn't really "look right" if i did retail/unschooled work.

Bear in mind he lives in a completely different culture.

Yeah it's a [bleep]ed up mentality, but that's pretty much how it goes here. You won't see a white/western person working retail, as a waiter, in a fast-food restaurant, construction, etc.

Ah yes. My bad.

I got a call from work that said I didn't have to come for my shift tonight. Hoooooray, now I get more time to read :P

Jesus Christ its cold. woke up at 6AM for the first time in years this morning, going out job hunting and to also call in to Jaycar Electronics and see what's happening with this job position. past few days have been a train wreck emotionally but I'm not gunna go into detail.

 

EDIT: Apparently, Australia has the highest car theft amount in the world, and my town area ranks 4th in Australia....

 

GOD DAMMIT!

Now that the BBQ isn't covered with junk, I'm grilling some burgers for the very first time. RIP patty #3. :(

Haven't been posting a lot the last few months, but I thought this was pretty funny on my facebook today

 

Writing an essay on Othello regarding Iago's intelligence, remorselessness, and luck as they relate to his success as a villain. Easy, but it takes forever to get through <_<

 

Edit: If you're not supposed to use contractions in your paper, can you still say something like "Iago's intelligence" to denote possession? If not, how must you say that?

Lago's Intelligence isn't a conjugation. Although possession and conjunction both use apostrophes, they're different.

^ Yup.

 

Apostrophes are fine when used to signify possession.

Conjugation? Conjunction? Contraction?

 

CONJUNCTION JUNCTION, WHAT'S YOUR FUNCTION

 

 

In other news, I sent chromebandit a message on youtube about the possible benefits of using marijuana to treat his disease (Crohn's disease). He actually responded personally to me. I know it's not like he's a celebrity really, but that's what it feels like. And he said he would bring the subject up at his next doctor's visit. It just feels super [bleep]ing good to know that. Nyeh, happiness.

My receiver is being really weird. It will play fine for about 10 seconds and then the sound cuts out. Does it for everything, even radio, so it's a problem with the receiver itself or the speaker.

 

From research it appears that it's dieing or some parts in it need to be repaired. Last [bleep]ing time I buy anything off craigslist again.

The cricket is no more, or else I would post a pic. I wanted that one gone, so I fed it to my tarantula first. She happily ate it too... thank goodness.

Eurgh, tarantula. I'd rather have a dog or two :thumbup:

And I finished my paper. Expect at least a B or so. :shades:

Conjugation? Conjunction? Contraction?

I laughed, quite hard actually. Well done sir. :thumbup:

Best friend is in a happy new relationship.

 

Now I can focus on getting me one of them...

My roommate today said in one of the most smartass voices ever, "This weekend, we should dress up in our Sunday best, hit the town, and find us some girlfriends!"

 

I laughed pretty hard.
