Well I wish I could hug everyone but I'm female and almost everyone else is male and so that would lead to much awkwardness
 
Tsk. Here in Spain, women greet men and each other by kissing in the cheek. And men with a close familiar relationship and friendship too. Whats so special about hugs?
 
Apparently.
Which book?
Good Omens.
Usually involving removal of all or half of the nail.

Delicious.
It's not that painful except for the first couple days.

Nah, girl friends aren't the same as girlfriends,and a hug from a girl friend isn't the same as one from a girlfriend.

Ugh I've been on a downhill slide for the past few days, but tonight I feel closer to be straight up depressed than ever. I don't normally let things get to me at all, but I just feel miserable and fundamentally it doesn't seem to be getting better. I'll certainly be happier in a day or two, but I don't know what I'm doing...

I just started grad school (Phd math) last August, starting my second semester now, by all accounts I've been successful. Got all A's my first semester, and got good review from all the undergrads I had to teach (which I hear isn't exactly easy). But everything just feels wrong and I feel incredibly lonely...
I've made friends here, and everyone is nice, but I just don't really feel like I belong. everyone here is for lack of a better term boring. I really can't come up with a better description, everyone is focused on school and these days I don't really care that much about it. I'm just doing it because it's there...
Half the time I'm out with other grad students I feel like I'm hanging out with my parents or some such. No excitement and its 10pm on a Friday night and everyone I tried to hang out with is studying or sleeping... WTH?
I just don't feel like this is the life for me, somehow I'm getting by and doing well in classes, but I don't really feel focused at all no idea how I can survive 4 more years of this unless something changes. So I keep thinking I'll just get a Masters and bail, but it's not like I have something else I want to be doing instead...

I'm just aimless now, I want to feel like I git in somewhere. Oh and I want to get liad at some point my girlfriend dumped me when I moved here after months of talking about how our relationship would still work. I'm over that part (I think) but who knows...

On top of all that I've had medical issues come up last few months so I can't drink, normally a dozen shots of vodka would do a lot more for me than posting some crap on CFC but now that's not an option. Plus I've gained about 15lbs from being sick which isn't really bad, but my body self image has been shot to hell...

...and I'm just ramble whining... But I seriously feel really frustrated and angry with the world right now.
 
I was trying to create the biggest explosion I could in Garry's Mod and my computer BSOD'd

That wasnt a very well thought out idea

Also I asked my mother to call the doctor about my toe but she forgot and the doctor is not open again until Monday and she keeps insisting its not a big deal which is frustrating.

Well, maybe they are. But they seem to go in for hugging each other more than the British do.

It's all just a matter of convention in the end.
 
Oh man I just screwed up big time.

Details?

That all depends on how good you know the other people ;).

Good Omens.

Never heard of it :dunno:? Should I have?

Seems like you need a social hobby, to get to know some other persons to have fun with.
Or just some time, it's probably only temporary.


At least I hope that.
Because I'm a bit on an earlier stage. Yesterday I was nearly at the point to panic if this all here will work, if I can deal with it, if it's not too much, etc.
And that was only only the work side, not the social side, which is at the moment relatively good, because I live with some nice people in a dorm, so there's always somebody to talk. But I'll have to move out in roughly a half year, and I don't know if I'll feel somehow the same like you :/.
 

Managed to ruin two friendships of mine, tear open my wound, and screw up big time with my love interest. In the span of 30 minutes.

On top of that, I accidentally helped out a little too well with the charity I volunteer for, so now they want me to do more than I signed up for. I don't mind being in control of their Youtube, recruiting, advertising, and writing, but I at no point signed up to become personalized with all the orphans and I didn't sign up to become the head of their photo team and the moderator of their forum. Both of those sort of just got thrust upon me.
 
I just discovered the name of a libertarian blog written on my perforator - in my handwriting - without remembering ever having written it.
Am I being brainwashed?
 
What's a "perforator"?

I'd have thought it's a hole punch for paper. But I wouldn't normally write anything on one.

Is it like a spiral bound notepad?

Yep, that's what it is. Sorry, didn't realise the English word for is was different (is it hole puncher?).

It's written right under the opening on the top.
 
We call them "hole punches", but "perforator" is definitely a Ronseal word. (It does exactly what it says on the tin.)
