I HATE getting two pages into a thread before I realize it is a 4 year old necro....

Please tell me you weren't batting without pads. As much as I like cricket, even I don't go in for suicide attempts
All the hits avoided the pads and thigh guard I was wearing. I really shouldn't ever get hit on the inside of my left leg (right hand batsman), but I somehow managed to get hit there.
Bad stance IMO. Put the foot foward and your weight on it, then hit the thing. Amend to 'backwards' in the case of the 'run and hide' defence

I have no problems when the bowl full, it's when it gets bowled off a good length and at the body that I try and push it into the on-side and get hit. When it's shorter I can generally hook/pull the ball, so I only get hit in the upper leg, rather than my torso.

Chavez has a new tactic. "Half hour blackouts"
Instead of the usualy two times a day 2 hour blackout, I get one 2 hour blackout and 4 half our blackouts scattered throughout the day.

I feel like something inside of me is dying, slowly.

You're an expat though, you don't need electricity. All you need is a porch to sit on all day sipping rum in a constant but moderate state of drunkeness.
I hate it when people assume expats have easy, laid-back lives. They don't.

Having just spent an hour trying to calm down a fighting ex girlfriend, I'm really upset angrily right now. That means that she was fighting with me, not that I was fighting with her. All that made her tick off was that I posted something offensive about an application on Facebook. Note, an application, not her. Had her yelling at me digitally for the whole time, escalating in me telling her to stop being a female dog and understand that I don't have a problem with her and that there was no reason for her to be so offensive over something as small as that. To which, she replied that she wasn't a female dog, and that she was perfectly justified in acting that way because I was so annoying. Then I stopped reasoning with her. I told her I didn't want to listen to her pile of excrements, that I would stop answering her and that I would take a shower. When I came back, she had messaged me something I don't recall now and then that I had a little weiner which couldn't crush anything more than an ant, to which I facepalmed and didn't answer. The girl is freaking 18! She has to grow up. And I know that 18 isn't actually mature, but I expected her to act more in kind with humanity... For god's sake...

I seriously consider quitting life for a while, it's seriously getting to me that I have to deal with that way of acting. Perhaps I should get into Magic: the Gathering professionally?

You expected a girl to act rationally. That was your big mistake.
They are right, you are wrong. The sooner you accept this the simpler your life will be.

How hilarious that statement might be, I'm really sad it's bordering truth. xD

That Guy
Leave Denmark. Travel the world. Marry someone who's hotter, smarter and just plainly superior to that girl. Or, if it's a man you can flaunt your ability to attract better boys than her 
Also, girls don't behave rationally. They can be incredibly emotional beings. Of course, that can be both bad and good. It's just a matter of making it the latter rather than the former.

Being an expat can be pretty rubbish.
Also I think TLO would be classified as an immigrant rather than an expat.

Just remember quitting life is permanent.
"Suicide: a permanent solution to a temporary problem."
"Unless you're Buddhist, then it's the opposite."
And, if you're religious, do you seriously think that the big guy is going to be impressed when you tell him that you left behind all your responsibilities and everyone connected to you because you didn't think you could cope? I suggest trying to get a purpose in life - being depressed normally means you aren't doing what you should be. Try voluntary work - it works for senility too. Apparently

Yeah!
So my best friend just told me she doesn't want to be my friend anymore, which I don't mind at all.
It's just that I've disliked her very much since 7th grade and I am now in 10th grade.
The reason why I've stayed friends with her for so long was because I felt bad for her and she was extremely clingy and possessive of me claiming the worst thing I could do was leave her.
Wish I could tell her I've disliked her for so long and she guilted me into being her friend. But of course I won't. <3
Also, I'm sure some people will assume, but she's actually a really smart girl, not shallow or dramatic, she's intelligent but introverted and awkward.
And also she was a really big burden, for example I couldn't talk to other friends around her because they would ignore her since she was usually really boring or came off as a creeper around other people.
