What's going on with you 2.0?

It's a shame we couldn't get the timing right, but the states are officially calling my name lol. I'll be back for sure!!!

 

Give me a bit headway and Ill make it happen! For sure!!

 

Ugh, purgatory sucks. I should at least know something about school by Friday, but I reeeally hate missing the first classes. Hopefully, after many phone calls, and hours of sitting around waiting for someone to get a chance to help me during the busiest time of the quarter, we might have found a solution.

It's sad. I had to sick my mom on them. I love her dearly, because she has the uncanny ability to put someone in their place without appearing to be a bitch. Plus, for some reason, the financial aid department runs out of ideas for my tuition when I talk to them, yet whenever my mom has called they've pulled scolarships out of their asses. I <3 u mom! <3 <3 <3

so, on top of my fretting about whether or not I was going to be able to attend school, one of my roommates has went psycho a d started a bunch of high school drama. Like, she's seriously spreading rumours among people at school about the rest of us. It's getting out of hand, so I have to verbally choke a bitch tomorrow and take care of this situation. She's even, after feeling rejected that she didn't get invited to the gay pride parade, stopped speaking to us, cozied up to a girl we all supposedly mutually dislike, and pretty much told the other girl all the shit we said whenever the dislikee pissed us off.

She left out all the shit she said in agreement to said shit that was talked.

Amongst her angry, whiny messages on facebook because she is unable to walk three feet to either bedroom and tell us when anything bothers her.

Next time, I'm psych screening my roommates. I specifically tried to get chill roommates. Booooy was I wrong! Lol sheesh.

I got this facebook message from the chick, asking about what did she do. I simply don't like her because she's a bitch. Most people who know her has described her as such. I've never invited her to my house that I know of, and it's because -surprise- I don't like her.

So I told her the truth. Though not as bluntly. And I also decided to give her the heads up about psycho girl, who is literally using the bitch because she is angry at us, and doesn't want to be our friend anymore. I doubt she will believe me, but I think I at least brought up a good point: "just what do you think she was doing whilst you were being discussed? Do you - really - think she didn't join in the conversation?"




I'm surrounded by children. Save me.

Oh, and </rant>

 

hope the school get it straight and you can go back to classes hun. it sucks that they wernt helpful when youve approched them but great that your mum was able to get them to be more understanding and helpful.

and urgh at the weird room mate, something you can definatly do without

 

Waiting to see what Mr. Jobb's says about the iPhone 4 tomorrow.

I'm wondering if it will be something drastic, or nothing of concern.

 

Mr. Jobb's ...man I can rag on your gay ass for that one but I will pass.

 

What a day I had yesterday.

I got to work at 8 a.m. and left at 9 p.m. I got home, tried to take a little nap, and then I went to the movie theater to see "Inception". Miraculously I didn't fall asleep at all during it.

I got home after 3 a.m. and then set my alarm to go off starting at 5:40, so I had an hour of snoozing. Well, I woke up, thought the clock said it was almost 7 a.m., went in the shower and as I go to wake up my daughter, I see the clock reads 6:13. :smt012 :smt005

I'm feeling okay now, but man, come this afternoon, I'm going to be wiped out.

Thank GOD it's Friday!!

 

Damn Bookie, that's a long day! Kudos to you, I'd never make it, if I can't sleep at least 4 hours, I don't even try cause anything less is just useless. I'd much rather pull an all nighter and play catch up on sleep the next day, than try to grab just a few hours. Poor girl, I hope you get some sleep tonight.

 

can someone remind me why i thought it was a good idea to take my daughter to mainstream activitys?

she goes to a dance school, this week is the dance recital. she cant dance she just does a weird exagerated walk round the stage

but in the changing rooms ive seen her being bullied. monday they were playing games and kaya tried to join in but she just didnt "get" the concept so they pushed her away.

tuesday it was mainly verbal telling her to go away, that shes a baby etc, didnt bother her, she didnt understand.

wednesday and thursday it was increasing with them following her calling her names, again she wasnt bothered as she doesnt understand

today it hit another level with them being physically violent hitting her and pushing her resulting in many falls for kaya as shes unsteady on her feet at the best of times. she now has bruises coming up on her back, hips,bum and legs

the parents havnt reprimanded thier kids as the children say its her fault because shes a baby

tomorrow im meant to be watching but i dont see how i can leave her, the helper thinks kaya can be left and will be fine but this is a woman who was asked to make sure madams helped up and down the stairs to get to the stage as she cant do stairs and yet today after the dance had finished, the other kids had come back and thiers no kaya, i found her crawling her way up the stairs

i just dont know what to do, kaya loves going to dancing and shes not overly distressed but how can i take my child here knowing shes being hurt :smt009

 

Unfortunately children can be really cruel Robina, though some of that is how they're raised, and rather obviously some parents aren't doing a good job of that. I've never had to correct my children for mistreating or making fun of anyone, but had I witnessed them doing what you've described, I would have been on their ass about it and they would have apologized and then I would have sat them down and made them explain themselves to me, and they would have stayed there until I got a satisfactory explanation. I sure as hell wouldn't be making excuses for them, because that behavior is inexcusable.

There is NO excuse for behavior like that, those children are bullies, plain and simple, and their parents need to beat their asses for acting like that. What the hell kinda adults do they think their kids are going to become? It makes me sick. You have a tough choice, but ultimately if they are hurting her physically, they need to be corrected for that. I'd inform the instructor and the other parents that if it happens again you'll contact the authorities. That's assault and battery, regardless of whether they are children, I don't imagine that's going to go over too well with anyone. I stay out of squabbles amongst my kids unless someone touches them, then I feel like it's my place to intervene. Kaya should be able to interact with other children without being picked on, bullied, or physically assaulted. But you know you just do not pick on someone just because you think they are weaker, or because they can't defend themselves, that's just wrong on so many levels... and dammit you shouldn't have to be there to make sure that happens. I cannot believe that no one intervened on her behalf, that just makes me angry and sick.

 

I'm sorry to hear about that.

Garbage parents raise garbage kids.

 

I know I've been here and there with the forum recently, but I'm finding it a little bit stressful. The constant bickering and people wanting to start fights over anything and everything... it's frustrating, because it's a really good forum with some great members, but I don't blame a few of the regulars for leaving.
I might just lurk for a while, I've not felt perticularly welcome recently and I'm not too sure why. Maybe I'm just being a bit of a pessimist.

I'm currently in the Ukraine, been here for a little while now and it's so bloody lonely lol. I go to a private language school and I'm the longest person to stay here, everyone comes and goes and stays for about a week or two, so I don't really have the opportunity to get to know anyone. Going to bars and stuff like that by yourself if you're a woman is seriously frowned upon here, as you basically look like you're out to take someone home if you do that. I even got that when I went to watch the football.
It's hard to meet people, and because of the time difference it makes it hard to speak to friends. Three people who were meant to be coming to visit bailed out too, so I'm feeling pretty lonely and a little disheartened at the moment

It's been a tough couple of years. I don't really feel like sharing it... I feel like I would be criticised for whining or something. Everyone I post now someone picks a fight with me over one thing or another so it's a bit uncomfortable for me to post about my personal life or post things like photos now. But yeah... It's one thing on top of another and it's hard to 'keep your chin up' sometimes, when nothing really seems to go right.
I am lucky in one way though, because I think Mach should be coming here at the start of August on a seperate trip and I'll still be here and will be able to meet the wonderful man himself. It'll be the first time for me meeting someone off the forum! I know it'll be hard for him to make time with all the beautiful thin 6" blondes everywhere, but hopefully we will hang out and I can tell you guys all about that.

 

im sorry you dont feel welcome russia, your most certainly a valued member of this forum and i know i enjoy reading your posts and seeing your pics.

sure sucks about your language school, not having people around to spend time with and not having the chance to wind down with either a match or a night out, what is it you do to keep busy insted?

 

I think you are voicing what quite a few members are thinking Russia. Seems like it's been a little stressful around here lately, but that comes and goes. Though I regret nothing I've said or done, nor will I be apologizing to anyone for that, I am sorry if I contributed to making the atmosphere uncomfortable for people, or for you.

I think anytime you have people interacting you are going to have some that bump heads, sometimes on a regular basis and with a lot of people. There have also been an inordinate number of trolls lately, but I suspect it's the strife amongst the members that is more damaging and disappointing because we're all supposed to be on the same team. Ultimately though if the positive and neutrally objective people leave, then all that's left is the negative people, and that would truly be a shame. Personally I feel like you are one of the little rays of sunshine around here and I would miss that if you leave.

 

Robina, I'm sorry to hear about the trouble that kids are giving your daughter. I hope that the situation can get resolved very quickly. I can't believe that no one has done anything to reprimand these kids.

Russia, I'm sorry to hear about your feelings with the forum. I've gone through that quite a bit on here. I'd post something and it would get completely ignored and I always just felt like I was invisible. It ebbs and flows.

Yes, the seemingly constant bickering sucks. If everyone was sitting in a room together, more than half the things that are said on here, wouldn't be said. It's easy to hide behind a monitor and unleash.

I hope that things get better for you.

Couldn't agree more! :smt023 You'd be sorely missed around here if you left.

 

i'm sorry to hear that you're going through such a tough time at the moment russia, please know that i'm sending positive thoughts & e-hugs your way...!!!

as for the forum, it is very stressful round here at the moment. i don't live my life surrounded by negativity or negative people, so coming here & seeing this is very disappointing, which is why i'm trying to spread love at the moment...i hope it works. if things don't improve i can see myself leaving as well. but please know that you're always welcome and loved gorgeous girl...!!!!

i'm so sorry to hear this rob. children can be cruel at times, and as parents it's us to teach them how they are to treat other people. those parents need a serious kick up their arses for not doing anything about it...!!!! can you speak to the owner at the dance school and explain the situation...??? it's important to have kaya socialise with other kids and all that, but if she's not enjoying it and getting bullied, is it really worth it...???

 

I'm really sorry you feel that way. I hope I didn't cause any of it with my disagreement on men regarding their view of women. :smt089

 

Russia...don't go...don't go.

 

Man, while I'm working on my comic, I wanted to create a youtube video as a sort of advertisement for snowstorm comics. Basically a slide show of my art with a song that I made in the background. Well I think I got the rough draft of the song finish, it sounds pretty good. I want to show you guys but I don't know how to post music on here without placing it as a youtube video? Is there like a hosting site for music?
