*First I would like to say this is a great thread*
Wow, where 2 begin......
Things here r as crazy as usual. Actually now seeming to look up a little. As 4 work, as of lastnight I finally got a job. I'll be waitressing at a bar. So finally I can't get back on my feet.
As of my love life, I love my boyfriend more than anything. Unfortinately he is in the usmc brig. He will be getting out on June 3rd, now 10 days later than was expected. It is weird we weren't together b4 he got put away but yet was my bestfriend. I went and saw him for the first time since he got put away ( October 2000 ), this was in September of 2001. That was the best move Ihave ever made to bring him back in my life. He means everything to me. I'll admit I do from now and then have thoughts of maybe I would be happier if I wasn't w/ him, but then I see him and realize.....I can't live w/ out him.
I am a very lonely person, I have dealt with chronic depression my whole life and am now back on anti-depressants, but am the past few days feeling a bit better.
This April I will finally be getting my divorce. I am only 21 but was dumb and got married at 18. I don't regret it 'cuz I learned alot and I wouldn't have met alot of people that mean alot 2 me. And I wouldn't have met Jason, whom is the most important person 2 me. I luv him more than anything. He is the best. I have never felt that anyone has cared 4 me the way he does. No-one has ever made me have this fuzzy warm feeling he gives me.
I am now finally not addicted to any drugs, I can't say I completely quit but drastically cut down. I'm taking things slow. "moderation is the key" Right?
I have recently moved in with 3 new roommates....they r great, we have a blast together.
I am now and aunt once again and hopefully will be going home to NY soon 2 see my new nephew. My sister named him after my brother, and had him on my dad's birthday, so that was kinda neat. I miss my family alot, more than ever!
Well, that's enough for now.
 
my life...let us see. My life of being the academic hermit has changed to living a life of being the working hermit. I'm working my very first "career" job in my field. I'm paying my dues but I'm loving every minute of it. I know where I'll be living for some time and I'll be closing on my first townhouse in July. It's pretty weird but I can't wait to live in "my" place on my own for once in my life. Plus I miss my naked time. Living in solitude has it's ups and downs but I know that out in the wild blue yonder I really do have friends that are worth traveling to see and worth risking internet addiction to keep in touch with.
Nothing special in the love interest section of my life... I'm not one to play the "game" many single people play in this town. Even though I do like it here I do wish I had someone special who lived close to spend time with. Other than that I'm still the emotional nutcase I've always been. :)

A new decision for me :) This can coincide with my first post in this thread. Almost 25, and barely figuring out what I really want. I agree, that it's never too late.
I've decided to give up working full-time and go to school to be a teacher(K-6). Being a teacher is something I've always wanted but was put-off because of the pay-I doubt any teacher is in that position because of money-Obviously the pay-off is a lot more rewarding. I love children, I think I'll enjoy going to work everyday and summers off :) I have 2 job offers, and one of them is perfect because it's very close to the school, part-time and a family environment. I don't make decisions that much- I recklessly live my life so it feels greater than I can explain to have a goal I really want. Going back to school has been put-off for a while now.
I've also been helping at my nephews elementary school every week, it's been a lot of fun.

^^^^ I can't think of a better person in the world to be around children every day. I think that you will do more good for a child in one day than most people can in a lifetime. It's wonderful that you've found something to drive you, that's such a different way to face each day. :)
 
I'm going back to UNCG. One semester at GTCC and living like a high schooler again has gotten me MUCHO motivated to go back to UNCG. I'm a BS in Biology, gonna Minor in psych instead. Still want to be a doctor. I am a natural healer, and I love to study medical reports. I hope I can be able to help cure people someday. Caine and I are closer than ever... *hi Caine*
Summer draws close.. I'm on my spring break this week (thank goddess) I plan to take 2 sessions of summer classes this summer. I'm gonna get my General chemistries out of the way. Gonna take sociology and a musical history course as well. This will give me something to do over the summer (yay.. i love summer school. i'm a nerd) I also am applying for this awesome job in town tomorrow. Keep your digits crossed that I get it. It's a lamp store, that has kitties running rampant in it. Says in ad "must like cats." I think I'm purrfect for the job :)
Life just seems to be looking up for me these last couple of weeks. I'm feeling very pulled together emotionally and actually content with my life in the present. I'm not abusing drugs like I used to.. well, not as much at least. Down to major chemistry 2 times a month now.. as to rolling 2 times a month, drinking robo, etc.. on the other weekends. My brain is starting to gain its capacity again. I don't want to kill it off again. I hate feeling stupid. I hate even more KNOWING I'm becoming stupid because of things I'm doing to my body. I am just glad I'm seeing this now, instead of years from now, when the effects are irreversable. Well, this is all for now :)

My life:
I am slowly digging myself out of my two-year rut. I will be back in school full-time in September. I am going into nursing, specializing in first nations healthcare. I am going to move north to go to school because I really want that specialization. (I know, north in Canada, why??)
I have been debt-free for a month or so (not including student loan, but at least it's not in arrears) which has taken away my perma-headache.
I will work until the end of the summer, and then my boyfriend will support me until I finish school. I have helped him out a lot in the last year while he finishes his degree, but we don't really keep track of who owes who or who pays for who.
I do despise my job, but the pay is so good for what it is, that I just have to stick it out a few more months. I am just a cashier but I make over $16/hour, plus full benefits. Mainly I despise my co-workers because they are very unintelligent, but I guess that's life.
I have taken up running and it is getting better every time I go. I should go more, but life does get in the way.
I am psyched about summer coming. We do a lot of camping/hiking/backpacking/canoeing, so my exercise level skyrockets in the summer. And I am much happier. I really love the outdoors.
Well, if anyone read this far I'm amazed. I shall stop here! Mr. -22, good job on the competition (the public speaking that is, couldn't really care less about that fantasy game thing :) )
 
I have been working 7 days a week. Last week I worked 55.5 hours without a day off :( Basically I am exhausted and do nothing but work and sleep. I haven't had time for BL or anything else for that matter. Other than that nothing is new, no time for new stuff lately.
I miss everyone, I miss BL. But, at least I have some $$, and finally a car.
Hope to stop working so much soon. I miss all of you and hope life is good :)

Mini-update:
A huge issue in my life FINALLY has some resolve, and although it isn't the *perfect* solution, ever since I found that there IS a solution, I can't stop smiling!!!!!
Medical school, here I come. Watch out you crazy fuckers. ;)
 
im 26 years this year . my god am i getting old, just broke up with a great girl so im single and going out alot. I havent been looking after myself at all, scored a big ounce of red buds (highly potent stuff) and have been smoking it everyday like a maniac. Picked up smoking cigarettes again too, so basically my eyes look like shit when i wake up the next morning and go to work. Work wise im about to wrap up a project which has been on going for a year, in june my contract finishes and its time for a holiday, im pretty happy with the work i did which is a huge statisical collection internet based system which will be used by the government of WA!!!. My car needs a service since 3 months ago and I havent got any action for a while so pretty of stress building up there!!! next few weeks i got to clean my house and bathroom, finish all the buds so i stop, get out of this shit routine im in at the moment and start something new!!!
 
I would post what's going on in my life but there is too much to say it all. i'll just leave it at everything is very stressfull and I'm really depressed. I've actually made myself sick from crying so much.
 
Ceria- no matter how bad things get, try to change your attitude to a motivated happy one.Being depressed comes and goes and it SUCKS-but if you decide to have a good attitude, it's the first step for stepping out of it.
Writing it out here helps too-writing what you might want/need to do to change it also helps even if it isn't on here.
We want to see you :) 'ing :)
 
Hmm, whats going on in my life. Moving and packing, trying to get my schooling in, my kitty just died yesterday (ironically enough about 2 days ago i answered in another post that he is one of my motivations) trying to keep sain. Trying to get a job, among other things. When it rains it pours. Heh i need to vent sometime.
 
Well, everything is better...sorta. I'm much happier but more confussed. The guy I love and wanted to marry has been being kind of a dick lately and some shit went down and we (he decided I agreed to do it) decided to take a break...meaning that we wouldn't talk for a while. Well, that was tues. he called me on wed. and on thurs. well wed. night I met a really great guy that I like and likes me. I don't know what is going to happen with me and the guy I love, I'm not sure he is ready for a relationship of the kind I want, but the really great guy lives here (i'm at school) and school is almost over. I live 4 hours away and the school that i'm going to next year is like 5 hours away, and is the same school that the person I love is going to.
 
I'm an oldie, aged 27. I don't like my job (even if the pay is ok) and I have been single for the last two months. I haven't got any girl plans at the moment. I have to re-evaluate what I want. I am a about two stone overweight and I plan to loose it by mid this year (gonna start putting a little meth in my morning coffee :) )
But I do own my own a car, a lovely house that has a spa and pool. I bought it last year at an absolute bargain price. All my friends are envious :) :) . I love the flowers in my garden at the moment, although I am yet to learn the secrets of gardening. A couple of my plants have died :( .
I have two university students boarding in my house. They are a bit messy, but they are great kids. They are away from home during this brief holiday period. Because they are on holidays, it is a bit lonely. Most of my friends live about two hours away. My two best friends who live locally live are on lengthy holidays. So for the next few days I won't be able to do much social stuff.
The friends that I have are fantastic, they are great fun and we have the best time together. I only wish we could do it more often. But the distance I have to travel to see them is a real problem. I could gain a closer relationship with my friends by moving closer, but I would have to sacrifice my job (even if I don't like it) and find another place to live. I feel there is little point sacrificing what great things I have in attempt to gain different great things. It's very much a case of bird in the hand (even though I am single :( ) is worth two in the bush.
I plan to go to the gym and finally get my assessment done so I can start a program. I have been putting off for weeks now. I am rather self conscious and I don't want to be at the gym when my friends are around.
Although there are a couple of things I would like to change, I still feel that life is very good. For the first time ever, I can honestly feel proud of myself!
Amen to that.
