I have an idea to where I want to go. It's a pretty good private university. Not too far(well,it's in the same state, just five or six hours >.<) I just don't know what I want to major in. I like to major in Pre med, philosophy, or psychology. I know I'm going to minor in history. Ayu-chan will be 17 on the 8th. But she doesn't mind being call chan. San makes her feel old XD  |

That guy at the flea market would have gotten the beat down if I was there. I enjoy giving punishment to those in need of some. To those with school troubles, ummmmm, good luck. And to those with parent issues. Hang in there. I havent much to say about anything.... meh. Have fun everyone. Dont shoot anyone unless they deserve it.  Jomunga eats your avatars. |

Sighs, I must find a place to live with in a week and a new job also with in a week. My computer does not work, wont start up no matter what I pick (safe mode or not) and I suspect hard drive corruption so I will probably lose everything on my computer. After I do find a place and get settled, then I shall get a new hard drive or just buy a new computer. Then hopefully I can afford to add internet after that. So other than that Im just peachy XD At work right now......bored....XD

Sounds like fun sero, good luck finding a new place and pretty much a new everything. Ayu, you make me feel old. The last time I checked there was nothing wrong with being nice, but there is a problem with abusing that niceness to your own gain. As far as education goes, you don't need to decide now. Just go through your life as you want and do the things you want to do. No one knows what you want more so than you, and that's never going to change. Not everyone knows what they want to do as an adult at the age of 16 nearly 17. I don't, and even though I have it mostly planned out, I still have second thoughts and wonder if maybe I should get into psychology. It's not uncommon to change what you want to be throughout your life. It never hurts to try and figure out who you are before you go and make major decisions. Asking yourself rhetorical questions will yield the path you truly want to follow, and the one that only you can. You'll find the right hole that you fit in, in this world, but you have to know what shape you are before you can find the right hole. |

Wow I shut myself away for a few days and there's 2 more pages for me to read. It brightens my day to see the community helping each other through problems. I must express that we should look towards empathy and not sympathy when responding to others. This simple switch in prefixes can mean the world to people. It is not to say that sympathy does not have its place but sympathy usually only spawns complacency for ones situation. On the other hand, empathy will constructively provide solutions for said situations. Sorry for that random mind spasm, it was the product of too many things on my mind. I am going to agree with Jomunga on the whole flea market incident. As soon as he grabbed your hand I would have politely "grabbed" his throat. Be content with the fact that most people are cowardly in that if you draw attention to them, they will back down. I believe in my heart of hearts that you did the right thing by drawing attention to the situation. Though I must admit I would have "kicked for the up-rights" if you catch my meaning. I guess I can relate my own problem with finding my own identity with everyone's problem with deciding on an occupation. They do seem to go hand-in-hand. You can find out more about yourself in an hour of play than in year's of quiet thought. I have no clue where I remember that from but nonetheless I am a hypocrit for saying it. I will still advocate that you should enjoy the living hell out of your younger years. You have the rest of your adult life to worry about the other crap. I am 19 and until about a couple of months ago I did not know exactly what I wanted to do. It was only by experienceing new things and just living life that I figured out I wanted to be a chemistry teacher or a pharmacist. And you can see that I haven't even decided on one. Even if I become a pharmacist I am going to get atelast a master's in chemistry. Sometimes it is the small things in life that will make your realize what you love to do. Do not kill yourself trying to figure it all out because you could be sitting at your crappy part-time job one day and the answer will hit you. Don't stress, life's for livin'. |

Well applied to a couple more places, hopefully get a reply soon if not then goto a temp employment agency. also need to look at a couple places to live as well. though my mom isnt making this any easier <.< (somewhat) oh I didnt tell you why I am looking for all of this... I was kicked out of my friends place because I didnt shovel the drive way <.< Im not going to drive in a storm just to shovel their drive way. his dad complains about a bad back...pfft...get a snow blower or shovel for a little bit at a time. Also he supposedly doesnt know how to work the vacuum either. actually I dont think he knows how to do any house work. other note, I dont even know what I really want to do and Im 20 <.< I thought maybe game design but i totally bombed that....maybe go back after I get this straightened out and get my loan paid off. Or maybe go into some sort of computer graphics cause I love using photoshop.

Sero:: Are you in college now? I'm also currently undecided on what to do when I get around your age as well, cause I "bombed" the whole anime thing. T-T Some things I "wanted" to try out, you mostly would be better doing it in another country, but a few years earlier in your lifetime so yeah, that's not gonna work. Although, you can always live a normal life, get a wife, house, kids, etc. and just be happy, party and chill with your friends a lot... *just cut back on the drinking, y'know? :D

@Devils-Angel no I am not, I was though. I went to college for game design but was failing one class that I had previosuly failed before. If you fail one class twice you get kicked out and can not go back into that program at that school. So I decided to drop out a day before the quarter ended so I could go back if I chose to. However I have loan payment that started this month, so I will probably be waiting until that goes away to start looking into what I really want to do. Also now that I am looking for my own place to live that is going to include rent as well so in turn i need another job or one that will give me enough hours so I can pay insurance, rent and loan.

Besides the money thing and "what do I wanna do" factor, once you do find a house, I think you'll manage nicely, since you can do the house chores pretty well, unlike the one guy who "can't" use a vacuum? (O.o) Anyways, hope yoou all get it figured out soon enough. The longer you're not in college at this age, I guess it'll be even tougher trying to get into one at all. I don't know much about the college thing yet, so I'll worry about it more as I get older. :D

@Sero, YAY! I love photoshop too! I'm going into Graphic Design... but uh... I dunno, I'm not sure how the market is going for graphics recently @DA, You tried for the "anime" thing? AS in trying to draw anime/manga for a living? Cool! I wanted to do that a few years back (my dream), but then I realized it was impossible for me, so uh... I switched to graphic design... (yeah, I quit easily cuz my parents dun gimme any support on anything I like... lol, YAY!) TT.TT @both of you, good luck with everything. Gambatte-ne! ^_~ |

Pretty much everyone, stop worrying about things and take action behind them. Worrying is only good if it inspires action, alone it is only self-destructive. Constant worry can only lead to more worry. Don't confuse worry with concern either. I can worry about something but that is focusing on that something, having concern is to not only see that thing but also to see all possible outcomes and factors related to it. One can worry as much as he or she wants, but it rarely accomplishes anything. One can worry about an up-coming test and fret about it, but if one is genuinely concerned about it they will take action upon that feeling whatever that may be. You can't predict life, it's influenced by so many factors that predicting most anything is hard. We may see the bend in the path, that's foresight, but we can't see what's beyond that bend. Life follows basic patterns, that much is a given. As to how and when those patterns are revealed is as much a mystery as anything. Clout is limited and foresight can be attributed to common sense, but true knowing of future events is impossible. There are limitless possibilities in life, but we slowly close doors and choose directions in which to head. The fact remains that infinity minus one is still infinity and is no less so than it was before. There are countless choices to be made in life, nay, in a single day. Even under the most controlled environment there will always be some element of choice. Life isn't random, but it isn't completely planned either. The most any one of us can do is prepare ourselves for what we may face later in life, whatever that may be. Always bear in mind that even the most carefully laid plan may not go exactly down that path, but the key is to adapt to that change. Things in nature take the path of least resistance on an exact moment by moment basis, constantly adapting and changing to better suit the surroundings. The best plans for the future are those that change with it. Set a bearing, and check it periodically but following the point of the compass with no land-marks will inevitably get you lost. Have an aim in life and pursue it, checking it with your own thoughts and beliefs, and you can do no wrong to yourself. |

Well, I had a fight with my mom last night. I find it funny how she used so many swear words yet I say none. Basically she was getting on me for not having a new job yet or something. granted I have only until the 15th to find my own place because I can not stay there longer than 2 weeks without being put on the lease or what not. And I cant stay longer if I do and not put on the lease I could get them kicked out and yet what pisses me off is that she thinks I would do that. HELLO im not that STUPID. Why the heck WOULD I do that, if my time runs out then I guess I will look for somewhere else. so.....I slept in my car that night. XD

Sero:: Hmm, sounds bad. Why not ask some friends or a friend, to lend you a hand? I'm searching for a job that suits me as well, but I'm not too worried about it yet. I'll be more into it in the summer maybe, but I can't say right now, and school is working me pretty hard, so work would only get me tired and stressed out. Nae Nae [?]:: Ah, relationship type stuff? Everybody's been there once or twice before. :D
