Waaaaah today I saw a cricket in my house. It. It was huge. And it leapt, like, inches from my face, and every time it jumped I screamed like a little girl. But I live, like, on the fourth floor. This is ridiculous how did it even wah. This has been Scarfle's Exciting News for today

I'm obsessive about organizing things on my computer. Especially icons and music. It's bad. XD; Now I have a huge hard drive, but before I got my shiny new computer I only had 40 gigs to work with and it drove me absolutely insane.

You'd make an amazing Nia! <3

Don't work too hard, okay hun? I know studying is important, but it's not worth it if it wears you out so badly. I probably shouldn't even be saying this, considering I dropped out of college, but. I don't know. It just makes me sad to see so many of my friends stressing this badly over school. *big hugs*

Fel, you need to come over to my computer and organize everything. Especially my icons and music. Ugh, seriously, my music has the strangest names. what what why is this even called 216544863 what kind of song is this

A-aww, Fel ♥. haha thanks for your concern, it really means a lot to me. And I totally understand what you mean. I've dropped out of a lot of things because I didn't think they were worth it, and yeah, when I look back, a lot of them were definitely not worth it. But idk, even if it's hard, some stress isn't bad. It makes me feel productive if I'm tired. And then I get to tell crazy stories like how I dreamt of George Washington crossing the Delaware. But f-fel so kind and nice and moe ;A; *tripes the hugs yes you can do that because I just did it*

[lilac_breeze]

You'll probably think this is strange, but... I actually enjoy organizing things. So honestly? I really would be happy to help you out with that, if I could. XD

Some stress isn't bad, I agree. It's when it gets overwhelming that I worry. And I'm not moe! I just worry about my friends! Jeez. *blush* XD

F-fellll *A* sob a person like you is rare in high school. Then again, there's people being like "iyaaaan I'm so messy" and then have their binder neatly separated into different sections and color-coded with neatly-written dates on the corner. for me, my default folder is desktop first

Awwwwww, Fel is just so nice *A* It is the time of year of stress, it seems! I'm glad that you're so concerned and sob I should've asked how you were first I hope you are doing fine as well

There is nothing wrong with Prof playing Nia!

Yes, I'm keeping Simon! Story of my life, but I...don't currently know if I have a Nia lined up. I had a friend who said she was going to app, but I think she changed her mind and forgot to tell me.

Um, I freaking love your Nia and would love love love to play with her. So I have to ask my friend if she still wants to app which is hard because we're never online at the same times. But if she isn't going to, I'll tell you and you can be the potential Nia apper who didn't break my fragile heart.

Also there was a spider in my bedroom today and I didn't scream like a girl! I screamed like a manly man, and then I left my bedroom for hours until it went away. Pretty badass. So, yeah, if you need me to come handle that cricket for you, you know I'm your girl.

[rinnington]

Okay, looks like she still wanted to and just had to ask me a question XD Sorry! I really would have loved to play with you, but yeah, she just apped.

[long_scarves]

what lies how can you say such fake words what about my heart did you ever care

But yay! I'm pretty relieved, because I'm not even sure how long I could keep playing at four characters. ugh I'd probably just drop in, like, five seconds after I apped going "too much work sry2say =D!" and nobody would ever love me again. Also I am glad that I can count on you for all cricket escapades. but seriously it was huge and it jumped like an inch from my face and I am traumatized I usually leave spiders alone in a manly fashion, unless they're huge, and then I cry to somebody about it until they catch it. Together we will make the Ultimate Manly Duo.

I know how you feel. I had the same feeling of "study study study write" for pretty much all of April. I graduated about a week ago and I'm only now slowly starting to come off that level of stress. It's really not worth it. Pace yourself, take a break a bit more often, try to approach it relaxed rather than trying to memorize everything.

This may sound incredibly callous, but are you sure you want to sit journalism out? I had a similar issue, being a history major more fluent in math than words. I wanted to go into the sciences, but I had such a bad year that I convinced myself I was absolute crap at math and science that I went into something else. Turns out now, I really wish I stuck to my guns with physics. I'm not sure if that's even relevant to your story, as I don't know the particulars of why it was traumatizing, but if you really enjoy it, just think twice about dropping it so soon.

That's good advice! I probably should've taken it last week, though, because it was then that I was completely frizzing out and being like "esspaaaanooool" in a slo-mo dramatic voice. Now I'm just being happy that I'm actually busy with something, even though I am slightly annoyed that I cannot watch anime anymore.

No, it doesn't sound callous at all! It's good eatums, anyway. I'm curious to when you wanted to stick to physics, though, because I've just been relieved to get out of journalism. idk if I should give up on it or not, because the only reason I want to get in is because it has prospective job opportunities. But, really, I dislike interviewing people, being put on a high-stress deadline, and working closely with people who I don't get along with? I guess part of that is what I need to fix (like interacting with people iyaaaaan), but I gave it a second chance after Yearbook, only to run into the same problems again.

It took me a few more years to get over it and actually be able to look at it without the failure glasses on, so it was really only a few months ago. But frankly, if you're looking at it solely because it could get you a job, I have to say that's not a good way of looking at it. Start with what you enjoy for any reason and work your way to prospective job opportunities later. It's better for you in the long run than a job that's easy to get but that you hate every minute of.
